Show Notes
Let's start with the basics - what turns YOU on? Not what society, culture or religion says should turn you on, but what makes you feel vibrant and alive?
In this episode, I approach this question from four different layers. I invite you to think about and debunk the social scripts around sex, redefine foreplay, and broaden the definition of sex beyond intercourse or penetrative sex.
What You'll Learn:
- Why it is essential to be aware of what turns you on
- How social scripts around sex interfere with your pleasure
- The benefits of becoming more sexually self-aware
- What actually is foreplay?
- How to discover your sexual accelerator and sexual brake
- How broadening your definition of sex can be a gamechanger
How can your partner pleasure you if you don't clearly understand what turns you on? Connecting with what indeed turns you on might require getting rid of social conditioning or ingrained beliefs about what is "normal" and "acceptable" in the bedroom. This is an excellent opportunity to question how you've approaching sex.
