The 'Ghost' in the Bedroom

from The Grief Lab · host The Grief Lab

If you’ve felt a total collapse of desire, or if you’ve felt a sudden, frantic surge of libido that makes you feel 'guilty' or 'wrong,' I want you to take a deep breath. In the Lab, we don't do 'shame.' We do data. Today, we are investigating the neurobiology of intimacy during mourning. We’re looking at why your body might be seeking 'Life' in the midst of 'Death,' and why the absence of a touch can feel like a physical starvation.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-grief-lab--6886563/support.
