Boosting Desire & Arousal By Finding Your Libido Blockers

Join me on a useful journey through the dark forest of libido blockers. We're going through a list of the top 11 types of 'brakes' I see getting in the way of arousal and desire.  After all, you can hit the gas all you want but you won't go anywhere if you don't release the brakes. Here are the top issues we'll cover: 1. Genital pain and numbness2. Feeling obligated to have sex for someone else3. Internalized social "rules" about yourself or your partner4. Unmanaged stress5. Not knowing your body or not listening to it6. Negative body image 7.  Not knowing or being ashamed of your emotional turn-ons8. Unresolved trauma (I'll give you my recommended therapy approaches)9. Over-busyness and distraction addiction10.  Trying to use alcohol or substances to calm down (and why this backfires)11.  Resentments in relationshipsWe'll close with an exercise to help you start noticing what might be in your way. Send Laura Fan MailGet my free guide: Get Out of Your Head: A Starter Guide to Releasing the Pressure, Shame, and "Shoulds" Around Intimacy at https://laurajurgens.com/guideMore links: Substack at https://laurajurgens.substack.com/Wheel of Erotic emotions, go to: https://laurajurgens.com/wheelCopyright notice: All content in this podcast is copyrighted and copying, scraping, data mining, or using the content to train AI is prohibited.
