How to Bring Presence, Pleasure & Connection into Your Sex Life

How to Bring Presence, Pleasure & Connection into Your Sex Life

In this episode, we dive into how mindfulness can transform sex, intimacy and connection. As modern humans, we live a lot of life on autopilot, stressed and hustling. We crave more presence, self-care, intimacy and authenticity. Drawing on the research of psychologist & sex-researcher Dr. Lori Brotto, author of Better Sex Through Mindfulness: How Women Can Cultivate Desire, we explore what's really going on when stressed, multitasking and distraction undermine our intimacy. I share with you many concrete mindfulness practices you can bring into your body, your relationship, your everyday life. If you want to deepen your connection (with yourself or your partner), stop doing sex like it's a task, and rediscover the gift of intimacy.
