Episode #8. Sex like a dance

The School for Mystics

The way men and women perceive life can be very different, and one of the areas in which the contrast can be especially dramatic is sex. As always, there are two ways to deal with the gap – to deny it or to explore it. So let’s talk about sex, the perceptions that both men and women have of it, how that shapes our capacity to explore it, and how all of that changes through life. In this episode, we both share our sincere perspectives about some of the most sensitive issues that underlie the cultural expressions of sex, like abuse, shame and control. We also discuss different options of how to diminish the expectation gap to open ourselves up to new experiences of pleasure. Finally, we explore how the experience of the entire process depends on the meaning we have attached to it and the intention of those involved, just like in a dance. From this episode you will learn: - How to trust a person, yourself and the process, - How to reduce the expectation gap, - How to explore yourself and the other and create a space for you two that will bring plenty of opportunities to grow, - What thoughts contribute to exploration of pleasure. This episode is very sincere and thought provoking. It’s really worth listening to.
