If you have permission to explore again, what would you do? what do you want? what does your body need? Accepting support, and giving yourself permission to feel pleasure, are important steps to satisfying our individual wants and needs. At times, however, we may feel disconnected from these internal cues and forget how to reconnect with our feelings of lust and pleasure. Robyn Spens — Hypnotherapist, Coach, Functional Nutrition Practitioner, and Member National Council Psychotherapist — joins us on today’s episode to talk about how she explores feelings of intimacy and teaches women how to reconnect with their sexual selves. 

Through both hypnotherapy and coaching, Robyn works with high-achieving women to teach them how to practice sexual self-care, including realigning with their sexual wellbeing. She highlights the need to understand how the power of the brain and the words we tell ourselves to have an immense impact on our behaviour. Moreover, how addictions can inhibit our ability to reconnect with our feelings of pleasure. 

In her work, Robyn emphasizes the need to begin opening ourselves up to the potential for possibility and sexual desire, rather than shutting our bodies down. Listen in to learn more about how to focus on your body’s wants and needs, how to incorporate breath work, finding ways to reconnect with yourself and reconnect with your sexual wellness.
