Sex for Saints

Most of us consider ourselves to be honest people, to have integrity. It may surprise you that this isn’t always the case. Can you speak truthfully to your partner when it comes to your sexual relationship. . .or do you let some things slide to save hurting your partner? It’s also possible the person you are deceiving the most, is yourself. But why? Today I will answer this question as well as share the top 4 reasons honesty will benefit your relationship and how to better achieve this.

We know we don’t. . . we aren’t sure why. . . but we just don’t. So many of us do not feel comfortable talking about sex - even to our spouse. Our parents didn’t talk to us much about intimacy and so we aren’t sure how to talk to our children. Today on the podcast I will bring a few ideas to the table. I will share some tips to help you open up and talk more openly with your spouse. I have some thoughts on what works and what doesn’t - so let me help you out. We’ve got this.

This week I had the privilege of interviewing Valerie Schwalbe from Well Being Physical Therapy in Murray Utah, specializing in the pelvic floor. If you have pain during sex, pelvic pain, leaking of any type, pelvic floor strain, feeling the effects of childbirth (episiotomy, scar tissue, prolapse, discomfort) or help with athletic performance - this podcast is for you. I think this covers just about everyone. You will learn what your pelvic floor supports and why it is just as critical to have therapy for the pelvic muscles as much as you would need therapy for a knee after surgery, She and I also tap into some of the reasons for sexual pain - the physical as well as emotional. Her treatment aligns heart and mind with the body. What you are experiencing may be common - all your friends may have the same problem - but that doesn’t mean it is normal. If you are in the Utah area, Valerie is seeing patients at Well Being Physical Therapy. https://www.wellbeingphysicaltherapy.com Or you can go to www.pelvicrehab.com to find a pelvic floor specialist in your area.

Today’s podcast is packed with fun and valuable information. If you have children you already know there is a distinct difference in the way little boys and little girls perceive their bodies. Those differences tend to remain stuck in our brains into adulthood. I will share insight as to why that is and how you may be missing some of the greatest pleasures in your life - sexual arousal. You might be aroused and not even know it. Your brain just needs to catch up to what your body is already doing - because it knows how. Let’s work together to fix that!
