Satisfying Intimacy ~ A show for Love, Sex & Life

Have you ever felt mixed emotions about something really important to you? ~

The good news (other than falling in love!) is, you can practice as much as you want sitting with the feelings and choosing your action and communication, no longer dominated by old reflexes. ~

How much do I say to the other person? Who can I confide in to get clear and relieve the pressure? How do I open up to the joy and contentment, and move on, on my path, and on this path with this person, and loving them on their path, to deeper and deeper gift and fulfillment in this world? ~

Here are some starting points for you to tap into your internal wisdom...

Who doesn't yearn to go WILD?? The magic is... we already are wild! We are nature, we are animal, if you believe it we are cosmos too. And we have all these social teachings, some with the good intention of harmony, some with the bad intention of domination, that mean at some point in journey to full adulthood we have to figure out how to modulate IT - our primal grab life by the horns and survive impulse. ~

This episode is for you to find your own authentic language of the deepest part of you that no one may fully understand but you can share very fulfillingly. As usual here on the podcast there are meditations and games for solo and partner exploration and heaps of motivation. AND a caution that denying that powerful energy can lead to much harm to self and loved ones. ~

We're all trying to figure out how to do it in a good way, more or less civilized animals naked under the clothes we wear. Much love. ~

Pleasure is a gift given to us innately, and it is a practice. Here, come explore how to welcome it into every corner of your physical and psychic being, sex, heart, head, spine, fingers and toes; marvel as you watch and FEEL it spread and dance and stretch and blow you open and contain itself with laser focus in your life and... however you want and need it to act! ~

This podcast shares meditations and games for you solo and with partner to get to know your and their capacities. AND, it suggests that as you grow your being, you will have experiences of incomprehendable bliss, homecoming, union, sustenance and inspiration for your body, relationship, life's work and more. ~

I am so grateful you are here each episode helping me help the world free itself from shame, loneliness, wasted time and other things taught to us for the profit of someone else... who probably wasn't having a lot of pleasure. Come take this life and radiate your gifts and make love with as many breaths as you wish. ~

Lexi Duquette (@mermaidinthevtmountains, seagoddesshealingarts.com) and her team of healers and visionaries is here to help you last as long in love and relationship as you want to, to keep finding that spark for your own life, attraction to your partner, curiosity for your future together. ~

14 years and 3 kids into a marriage that like others neared divorce many times for old resentments, sexual disconnection, hurtful actions and the like, she and her partner went to work hard on themselves to come out of the rough seas refreshed and in love with life. ~

Here Lexi also talks about how important it was to have a couple of happy long-time couple role models to shine the light of possibility amid bleak prospects of putting up with each other if not hating each other but sticking it our cause of loneliness, "for the kids" or whatever other reason than happiness, freedom, helping each other become your best selves better than you can do alone. ~

Thanks Lexi for all your insight, passion and trail-blazing in the dark! ~

Candice Leigh (@nakedyogatherapy, nakedyogatherapy.com) was years into yoga before the question came, what is the yoga of sex? ~

Her teacher didn't have an answer, so she found her way through the forest of tantra, sexological bodywork and somatic experiencing (SE) to create Naked Yoga Therapy in New York, USA. ~

As she tells here, most of her solo sessions, couples work and group classes aren't actually naked, though that is an amazing experience that can teach us so much about ourselves, unhelpful messages we got around our bodies and sexuality, even around social interaction; that can remind us to feel the joy of simply existing, moving, with elements all around. ~

Rather, naked is about plainly facing oneself and bringing that in to facing another. The idea is, the more self-accepting and self-embracing we are, the more we can really let ourselves connect with others, especially in the intimate places we so crave. In the same way that emotional vulnerability can be even more powerful than nudity, emotional intimacy can be more powerful than sex, although a wonderful conclusion of all this is to bring the two together. ~

Thanks Candice for sharing the fruit of your travels and integration in the mind/body/soul, and expressing it so movingly. ~

Amaka Ruth Njoku (@thegriefcircle_naija) has created a space for people to be themselves, with grief, so we can feel more whole, enjoy relationships and life, and help others. ~

Amaka lost her mom back in Nigeria while living in Mexico and didn't get to say goodbye, and then had a hard time finding a community anywhere that would welcome and help her understand what she was going through. She created The Grief Circle Naija so others would be able to start that much further ahead. ~

She talks her about her experience, social taboos, finding your tribe, having open conversations, new rituals, self-love, and being with friends and partners who are ready to rock a real life with you. She encourages everyone to take as long as it takes and let it come out however it needs to, and not let anyone stop you or push you feel bad about it. ~

Thanks Amaka for blazing a path back to ourselves and to the future of new openness. ~

Freya McFarlane (@freya_mcfarlane) is a tantric intimacy teacher who loves ritual... little rituals every day with yourself and your beloved, little or big rituals when the seasons change, or birthdays/holidays/anniversaries, or even the evolving seasons of the relationship itself. ~

Based in Edmonton, Canada and coaching online as well, Freya shares here the meaning and adventure we can live with when we have a safe and inviting space together. There are ideas for playing with the elements, sensual exploration, chatting needs and dreams, going out into the world with purpose, celebrating each waking up and going to bed. ~

The ritual itself can be much of what builds trust between you and gives your relationship special powers from connection to nature, as our ancestors have done for thousands of years. ~

Thank you Freya for sharing such a quality of loving teaching. ~

Marie Thouin (www.loveinsight-dating.com) is a coach helping people meet desire and discovery on dates, based in San Francisco, USA and consulting also online. ~

In this show we talk about knowing and caring for yourself before, during and after an encounter all the while really listening, sensing, connecting with the other person. We talk about first dates, getting closer thru many get-togethers, and how to keep a relationship even years-old fresh and exciting in love and curiosity.

Rooted in your safety, unashamed to communicate, laughing at so-called mistakes, a world of fun and fulfillment opens up, and so does the clarity to walk away when it's not what you want. Part 1 of 2 of this year's Valentine's Day offering for those who enjoy. ~

Thanks Marie for modeling being yourself and so alive in but one conversation, sharing the benefits of your experience. ~
