Ep.39 Awaken your sensual self & have better sex w/ clinical sexologist Jacqueline Hellyer
Show Notes

Do you want to deepen your connection to your partner, or to yourself, and have the best sex you’ve ever had? Well clinical sexologist Jacqueline Hellyer says, much of that will involve clearing the negative energies, barriers and blockages that conceal our true sensual & sexual nature.

We are hardwired for pleasure and sex in humans is a predominantly bonding rather than reproductive function unlike other mammals. But due to the stresses of modern-day life, our nervous systems are dysregulated, leaving us feeling less than sexy, connected and calm. Not to mention the guilt & shame many of us carry around sex.  Let's fix that!

On this episode we discuss how we need to ‘sink in’ to ourselves to be able to ‘sync in’ to our partners, how to make space for little moments of connection, how to quieten our minds & become more embodied, the key role of safety & where many of us may be going wrong with orgasms - yeah really, you heard that right. 

Our guest is Australian sex & relationship therapist, coach, retreat-host and author Jacqueline Hellyer who brings a typical Aussie no-nonsense, straight-talking approach to unleashing our sexuality and having the best sex we’ve ever had. I laughed a lot on this episode and I hope you do too!
