Talking about sex can be a difficult topic for many people. Even though we live in a tech savvy world where Sex is available 24/7, the topic can still be a shy place to visit.
Being comfortable to talk about sex can be linked to one's sense of self, identity, culture and family back ground.
I have had the honor of working with many people through my private practice and listening to stories about sex and relationships.
Allowing oneself to talk about sex can help to break down myths and expectations!
I can not tell you how many times people ask me "what is the normal frequency of having sex?" Everyone is different and for many people it is not once a day, I kid you not!
Becoming more comfortable with the topic of sex can connect to feeling ok with your own body as well.
To begin with:
1. It is important to understand your own bodies (that means the bits and pieces of you)
2. Think about what you want to learn about sex.. anatomy, positions, communication ...
3. Do some research, talk to a therapist or your family doctor for advice and resources.
4. Knowledge is power -
5. Empower yourself about sex
