From pleasure to tissue healing to nurturing presence to tending generational trauma, so many of us have no idea what's possible in the palace of our pelvis.
One thing that is especially wild to me is that we often believe what we see in the media is reality.
As if all of us can just immediately feel lubricated and aroused and we can just have overwhelming orgasms in a five minute quickie.
Maybe this is true in the Honeymoon or New Relationship Energy phase, when our bodies are just living in a state of arousal, but once we get beyond the excitement of the unknown and start acclimating to our partner/s,
it takes *time* to become aroused.
In today's episode, Juliana Rose Goldstone shares some real talk about arousal, including the time it takes (average 45 minutes for those of us with internal anatomy) annnnnd a pretty in depth map of our embodied pleasure centers (including the parts of the clitoris, locations in the vagina and the vulva), which you won't wanna miss.
And then we talk scar tissue remediation, which is far more interesting than it sounds at first.
Her descriptions of the melting of scar tissue that can happen when the environment is right are illuminating.
It's not just about the biomechanics massage or therapeutic technique, but also about the emotional state, the biochemical state and more that can help us release years (potentially) decades of scar tissue buildup and tension.
She tells a story of a client with chronic back pain who was due for surgery, who no longer needed surgery after working on the scar tissue from an episiotomy.
This is big, whole body, whole being stuff.
There's so much more in this conversation, so I invite you to listen for yourself.
