Episode notes
Meaning Shapes Sexual Desire
- Sexual desire increases when meanings expand our sense of self and make us feel alive.
- Desire decreases when sexual activity feels like obligation or produces shame, killing passion.
Reclaim Choice to Boost Desire
- Recognize that sexual obligation kills passion and shift to viewing sex as a choice.
- Embrace "no one has to have sex" as true to reclaim agency and desire.
Inhibitions Rooted in Judgment
- Sexual inhibitions often arise not only from shame and fear but also from good judgment and concerns about decency.
- Desire blocks appear when we don't feel safe, loved, or trusted by our partner.
