SEXUAL SHAME - Have you felt it? While its energy can be clingy, the shift into liberation is attainable with intentional practice. This transformation into confidence infuses our ENTIRE LIVES with vitality. The creator of The Intimate Lifestyle platform, Ryan Thomas, is dedicated to lifting men out of these shameful sexual patterns and into empowerment. In this episode, you will learn how to access sexual freedom, why we are afraid of our sexual powers, and how to act on our fantasies responsibly.

 

Show Notes:

  • Why are so many men afraid of their true selves?
  • Shame is an attempt to reject certain parts of yourself
  • Simply because we are grossed out by any sexual act does not mean it is objectively wrong

  • How performance anxiety permeates into our sex lives
  • What is eros? And why is it necessary for sexual intimacy?
