The Mind-Body Connection in Orgasm

Many issues surrounding orgasm stem from psychological factors rather than physical ones. Stress, trauma, and feelings of shame can create a mental loop that inhibits pleasure. Recognizing that most barriers to achieving orgasm lie within oneself can be empowering, as it suggests that changes in mindset and practice may help break this cycle. Engaging in mindfulness techniques, such as breathwork and meditation, can facilitate a greater connection with one's body and enhance the experience of pleasure.
