This Episode is a bit of a departure as Dr. Alisa shares a personal story from her new blog (and reveals some exciting news!)
There are many times you may find yourself standing on a ledge, needing to make a change but afraid to take the leap to do so. In sex and relationships, it is common to get stuck in patterns and dynamics that are no longer serving you. However, often speaking up or trying something new can be be terrifying.
Dr. Alisa shares about just such a time, literally. And the advice which helped her to make the jump.
You can find her new blog "Take the Fear with You & Jump" on her website:

Dr. Alisa talks about the nervous system. While it might sound neuro-science geeky, the Poly Vagal Theory can help you have better sex! She discusses how being stressed in a flight or fight/trauma response (Sympathetic nervous system) can shut down parts of your body's functioning needed for sex. Being in a Parasympathetic State, also known as Safe & Social, helps your juices flow for better, wetter and more connected sex. Listen to learn a simple hack to help get your body or your partner's body feeling safer, sexier and more present! This will help you re-think your whole foreplay game!

In this episode Dr Alisa Kriegel is talking about all the reasons why you should be watching the Netflix show "How to Build a Sex Room." She discusses all the ways in which it can help you learn more about what turns you on and how to create a more sensual space in your life for exploring sex, alone or with partners!

Dr. Kriegel continues sharing information about sex toys this time with a focus on toys for Men and also toys for Couples. This is about exploration, pleasure and play. There is no one way to have sex or be sexual. Sex toys are an opportunity to discover new pleasures for yourself and your partners!
-
Part One covers an introduction to some basics of how to find and buy the best toys for you. In this episode I then focus on sex toys marketed for women. I recommend this for anyone who has a vulva or plays with someone with a vulva as you may want to understand what you or your partner may like! This is all about experimenting, getting to know your body and your pleasure, and of course having fun!
Part Two will focus on Toys for Men and for couples. -
In Episode 7 I talked about reconnecting with pleasure and giving yourself permission to have pleasure in your life as a way to start re-connecting with your sexual self in a non-sexual way. Now in this Episode (#8) I talk about different ways to deepen that exploration to get more comfortable in your body and see what turns you on sexually. I truly believe that feeling great sexually (whether by yourself or with a partner) begins with you knowing yourself and what you like.

Sometimes you go through phases where you're not having sex, possibly even longer than a phase. Or where there has been significant changes in your life and you are no longer experiencing sex and pleasure the same way. In this episode Dr. Alisa talks about how to take a step back and learn to connect with your basic sense of pleasure as a first step to reconnect with the sexual part of yourself.

Did you know that men on average orgasm during sexual encounters and intercourse far more frequently than women? Statistics often show a difference of as much 40% more.

In this episode Dr. Alisa Kriegel talks about possible causes for these differences and more importantly, explores ways in which we can start to close the gap!

Shame is something that comes up a lot with regards to sex. We all have our own stories that bring up feelings of shame and judgment toward ourself and sometimes toward others.

She also recommends ways for you to let go of the shame and create more pleasure and positivity around sex in your life!

In this episode, Dr. Alisa shares a personal story about a time when the fit was less than perfect and what she learned from that. As well as what a lesser-known section of the Kama Sutra has to teach us about this important topic for ultimate sexual pleasure! -

Do you need to feel desire or be "in the mood" as a prerequisite for sex? Waning feelings of desire for a partner or for sex at all is not uncommon.

After all, knowledge isn't only power; in this case it's pleasure!
