Communication - Sex, Intimacy & Pleasure
Clear communication is essential in any intimate or sexual encounter to ensure that all parties understand and agree to the activity. This includes discussing and defining needs and boundaries and obtaining clear and enthusiastic consent. Good communication helps to create a positive and respectful sexual experience for all involved and can help prevent misunderstandings or unwanted situations from occurring. Additionally, clear communication can help establish trust and intimacy in a relationship. Communication during sex, intimacy, and pleasure is the cornerstone to achieving either a fantastic or challenging close encounter.
The only thing between experiencing pleasure and not is the presence of yourself and others.
As a Sexological Bodywork practitioner, I find that many men experience disconnections within their bodies and selves around sex, intimacy, and self-pleasure; it all starts with knowing what you want, don’t want, and present.
We are never taught how to breathe, feel, or learn about sex. We tend to learn from our mates and porn, which most is incorrect and simply amazing stories or smoke and mirrors.
How can you ask someone else if you don't know what you want or how you like it?
Connecting with yourself through somatic embodiment practice to build a better relationship with yourself is the conduit between you and developing the confidence to share with others without anxiety and shame to explore and experience pleasure.
Anxiety can lead to many issues, including erectile, rapid, and inability to ejaculate-related challenges.
Many men have a disconnection from their bodies as a result of body image resulting in a lack or no sensations in their bodies. When you can feel and become present with yourself, you will experience pleasure.
Sexological Bodywork and Embodied Counselling are two forms of therapy that focus on using feeling into your body, including touch, movement, and communication, to improve sexual health and well-being. These therapies can assist in teaching better communication between partners in several ways:
Creating a safe and non-judgmental space: A sexological bodyworker or embodied counsellor creates a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals and couples can feel comfortable discussing and exploring their sexual desires, needs, and boundaries.
Teaching verbal communication: Sexological bodyworkers and embodied counsellors can teach individuals and couples how to communicate their desires, needs, and boundaries clearly and effectively.
Teaching non-verbal communication: Through touch and movement exercises, sexological bodyworkers and embodied counsellors can teach individuals and couples how to communicate their desires, needs, and boundaries through non-verbal cues.
Addressing past traumas or negative experiences: Sexological bodywork and embodied counselling can also help individuals and couples work through past traumas or negative experiences that may be impacting their ability to communicate effectively in sexual or intimate contexts.
Enhancing intimacy and understanding: By teaching better communication skills, sexological bodywork and embodied counselling can help individuals and couples better understand each other and strengthen their relationship's intimacy.
