Yoga Body/ EPISODE 333: The Power of Pleasure

Xanet Pailet was in a marriage with zero physical intimacy for more than 15 years. Most people don’t go that long, but many do wait years before they openly address these issues; however, by then, permanent damage to the relationship may have already been done.

Sexuality is a definitive part of the human experience, and when it’s not working, it’s one of the top reasons couples split. So what’s going wrong? Past trauma, self-esteem issues, guilt, shame, and a general lack of communication all contribute to the complexity of physical intimacy, so it’s not surprising most people avoid the issue, if possible. Who wants to open up that Pandora’s box?

On this week’s show, Xanet will share her insights and expertise based on both her personal experience and decades of coaching others.

What You’ll Learn:

• How a sexless relationship can harm your spirit and your life
• Why abstinence is a ridiculous idea, even in spiritual traditions
• Why the definition of ‘sex’ should be broadened to include many different ways of connecting on an intimate level
• How to navigate the challenges of modern pornography
