🤔Did you know our brain is responsible for our performance anxiety in the bedroom? Yep, blame it on the amygdala! The lil almond shaped part of the brain 🧠 associated with fear, emotions, and motivation, which means it can make us feel stressed and anxious in intimate situations roo 🥺
But why, you may ask? Well, it's because of that limbic system we talked about yesterday , which includes that amygdala, which is working overtime to process our feelings. And because emotions and memory are highly connected in the human brain, the limbic system also plays a part in memory, learning, and sexual arousal.
So if you're struggling with performance anxiety in the bedroom, know that it's not just you. It's your brain trying to process and deal with all the emotions and sensations that come with intimacy. But the good news is, there are ways to manage it, such as relaxation techniques, communication with your partner, and seeking professional help if necessary 😉
Now, let's all give a round of applause to our trusty amygdala for always keeping things interesting in our heads! 😅
💦🍑👣 Hey y'all! Did you know that the reason you jump when you're scared might be because of a tiny almond-shaped part of your brain called the amygdala? That's right, the amygdala is responsible for processing fear, emotions, and motivation. And if you're someone who struggles more with anxiety than others, it could be because your amygdala is working overtime.
But don't worry, there are coping skills that can help! One of which is mindfulness meditation, which can help calm your brain and reduce anxiety. Another is exercise, which releases endorphins and can improve your overall mood.
When it comes to intimate relationships, it's important to remember that everyone's amygdala reacts differently, and that's okay. Communication is key in any relationship, so if you're feeling anxious or overwhelmed, talk to your partner about it!
So the next time you feel scared or anxious, remember that it's not just all in your head - it's in your amygdala too. But with some mindfulness and coping skills, you can learn to manage it and live a more peaceful life.
🚨Hey y’all , let's talk about body image and sex! Did you know that a person's perception of their own appearance can greatly impact their libido and sexual satisfaction? It's true! Women, especially, tend to experience appearance-based distraction during sexual activity, leading to lower sexual enjoyment. And if a woman believes her partner does not find her attractive, well, that can also put a damper on things. 😝
But it's not just women who are affected – men can also struggle with body image issues. In fact, men are more likely to experience performance anxiety during sex than women. That's anxiety about being able to perform well in bed. And let me tell you, that's a real mood-killer. 😔
So, what can we do about it? 🤨First of all, we need to start giving ourselves some love. Our bodies are beautiful, regardless of their 🍑shape, size, or other superficial qualities. We need to shift our focus from what we think we should look like and start appreciating what we already have.
Another thing that can help is open communication 🗣️with our partner. If we're feeling self-conscious about our bodies, talking it out can relieve some of the pressure. And, of course, there are plenty of ways to enjoy sex that don't depend on looking a certain way or performing a certain way.
Bottom line: let's all strive to ❤️love and accept ourselves, and our partners, for who we are. Sex should be a fun and fulfilling experience for everyone involved. Let's not let body image issues or performance anxiety get in the way of that! Communication is the key here with your partner 🙌🏻 if you are finding that you are having trouble communicating then it may be time to take a look at getting counseling to break down the barrier or take a look at what it is that is keeping the lines of communication from being open.
Hey there, let's talk about the connection between body image and sexual pleasure! Did you know that how you feel about your body actually has a big impact on how pleasurable sex can be? Studies have shown that having a positive body image is linked to a higher sex drive and greater sexual satisfaction, while poor body image can lead to a lower libido and less satisfying sexual experiences.
So, if you're feeling a bit down about your looks, it's time to start focusing on self-love and acceptance. After all, confidence in your own skin can lead to some seriously pleasurable experiences in the bedroom (or wherever you like to get frisky). Remember, your body is amazing just the way it is, and learning to appreciate it can make all the difference in your sex life. If there are things you are not happy with about your body that you are able to change, begin to set small obtainable goals in order to work towards reaching them.

💙Sexual health and reproduction denote the physical fact of your body and how it functions sexually. This circle includes the components of reproduction, the physical changes that happen from birth to death, and the challenges people may face such as sexually transmitted infections (STIs), sexual dysfunction, and infertility.

Sexual identity refers to who you are and how you label yourself as a sexual being. It includes how you see yourself as a gendered being (or not), gender role cultural expectations, who you’re attracted to, and the types of sexual practices that excite you/bring pleasure.
💞 What is sensuality?
Sensuality is the awareness, acceptance, and enjoyment of your own body and/or the bodies of others. Included in sensuality are fantasy, body image (how you feel about your body, which influences how and when you allow yourself to experience touch, sexual and otherwise), and skin hunger (the need for physical touch). Everyone has a different level of skin hunger, which is more than fine! Not all bodies crave the same type, duration, and frequency of touch. Sensuality allows for pleasure and includes smell, touch, taste, sight, and sound.

It is common to exclaim that dating is motivated by physical attraction. Although our distinctive natural smells are the primary attractant, how we look influences who we are attracted to. Pheromones are the names for the smells. They appear to exist in every animal.
Pheromones are extremely potent chemicals that produce an irresistible and enticing combination of conscious and subconscious scents that spontaneously draw animals, including lovers, together. Few are able to resist the highly charged arousal of these ravenous pheromones, which bind to one another. When the pheromone attraction exists, it is usually mutual.
🫣 What is the big O exactly?
An orgasm is an uncontrollable contraction of the vaginal wall, penis muscles, and anus that can produce a pleasant "release" sensation. Orgasms typically last between 10 and 50 seconds. According to research, people who have a vagina typically have longer orgasms than people who have a penis. An orgasm can feel like nothing at all—like a plateau but with no additional pleasure—or like an intense whole-body wave of pleasure.
Do you fake orgasms? If this is the case, you belong to the 59% of women and 25% of men who either do it or have done it in the past.
🤔 What Influences Sexual Satisfaction?
Research has outlined a number of factors that can influence satisfaction. Some of the key indicators (in no particular order) include:
🌿Feeling sexually desired/desirable by a partner
🌿General mental health (namely anxiety and depression)
🌿Overall relationship satisfaction which can include trust, openness, emotional connection and stability
🌿Understanding of your pleasure, and what you want/need sexually, as well as understanding a partner(s) needs
🌿Sexual performance and/or functioning concerns (this can include erection, ejaculation, pain etc)
🌿Variety - this can include trying new things, not always following the same 'sexual script'
🌿Physical enjoyment - pleasure, orgasm (although not exclusively) and the absence of pain
🌿Open communication with sexual partner(s) about sex, desire and pleasure
🌿Frequency - although important to note that the quality of the experience is more important than quantity, in overall sexual satisfaction
🌿Body image - poor body image can result in difficulties remaining present sexually, and can mean we get stuck in our heads thinking about how we look during sex
🌿Confidence that we are doing it 'right' (this can link to our learned beliefs about sex being performative and like we see in traditional pornography, which is highly unrealistic.. remember porn is entertainment)
🌿Expectations and pressures on frequency, performance. Placing pressure or expectation on a sexual activity works against our internal desire and arousal process, and can result in sexual anxiety, fear, avoidance and pain.
Have you ever asked yourself the following question: What are my goals regarding sex (i.e. intimacy, connection, emotional regulation, stress relief, etc.)? Is my partner aware of those goals and work to help me achieve them?

There's a reason why mindfulness is called a practice. We have more chances to learn and grow the more often we participate in the practice. We train ourselves to appreciate the power of living in the present by taking a moment to slow down and intentionally reflect on our lives.
For at least a week, I encourage you to incorporate a daily practice. Maybe you have your own thoughts or novel approaches to consolidating a care practice that are a superior fit for you? Take it on. Run with them. Please let me know how it goes; What are you thoughts?

💞What is energetic love?
It's within our reach to experience it at its greatest potential. Energetic Love is an act, not a result - so muster up some energy and show that special someone how much you care! With energetic love in your life, every day can be enchanted by the transformative nature of relationships.
To truly make our love come alive, we need to nurture it with knowledge of ourselves and our partners. We also have to remember that loving takes effort - as if powered by an energy source! It requires us to give something back: be that mentally, physically or spiritually. Unpowered love may not get too far; but when you bring the heat... nothing can stop your flame!
How do you practice Energetic Love? Feel free to share your ideas below!

👉🏻 7 reasons you as an individual or as a couple might go to sex therapy 🥰👇🏼
1. The Two of You Are Bored Sexually
2. You Have Difficulty Achieving Orgasm or Arousal
3. You’re Processing Sexual Trauma
4.You Think You Might Have Sexual Disorders or Dysfunctions
5. You’re Coping with a Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI)
6. You’re Dealing with LGBTQ Issues
7. You Just Want to Talk About Basic Relationship Issues
Feeling close to someone can make your world brighter and less lonely, but it's not always easy when we're scared of getting hurt. Anxiety about intimacy is a common topic in therapy chatrooms - abandonment issues (fear the other will leave), fear of rejection (worrying that you might be rejected once others learn who you really are), control problems (the idea of losing independence by being intimate) or even past abuse from childhood experience may all play their part in making us hesitant to open up fully with another person. But if we take our time, slowly building trust and working on those anxieties together, an incredible connection awaits! If you recognize that you or a loved one is struggling to make emotional connections it might be a good idea to seek support if it is taking a toll on you and your mental health. Feel free to reach out via my DM for suggestions and support.

Intimacy in a romantic relationship is the foundation of any great connection - it's like building your own little bubble filled with love and understanding. It takes effort to break through those walls, but if you can do so together with patience, communication and dedication then two hearts will join as one for an even better bond! So how close are you?
The last two forms of intimacy are..
Intellectual Intimacy - the joy of a stimulating debate where both people are free to express their thoughts - no matter how different or controversial. That's what sparks sexy conversations and connections that go beyond physical intimacy!
Sexual Intimacy, on the other hand, is an unforgettable sensual experience between two lovers who know each others’ desires like nobody else does.

❤️Here are 2 of the 4 types of intimacy.
Experiential Intimacy is all about developing a special kind of bond through leisure activities, like when father and son ace the construction of that model train in perfect coordination.
Emotional Intimacy goes even deeper; it's when we can open up to people with our deepest secrets without judgement or fear - just like what can happen in a friendship/and or relationship when sharing with a vulnerable part of yourself such a perhaps being bullied or abused when you were younger.
