<p>This was such a dynamic topic of conversation that we had to spread this conversation over two parts. In part 2 of Sex & Sensuality we dive into:</p><ul><li>How a woman’s experience and views of sex & sensuality change over the lifecycle. </li><li>How we can change our relationship to sex & intimacy. </li><li>The effect of trauma (birth trauma, surgical/medical trauma, sexual trauma) and how we can regain our connection to our body so that we can feel more present and safe during sex. </li><li>How connecting with your body personally can change your experience of sex with a partner. </li><li>How we can step into deep acceptance and celebration of our sensual and sexual self. </li></ul><p><br></p><p>To accompany this 2 part episode we offer you the following reflective questions that come straight from Taryn’s book Body Conscious: A Woman’s Guide to Holistic Pelvic Wellness & Feminine Embodiment available directly from Taryn <a href="https://taryngaudin.com/body-conscious-book/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://taryngaudin.com/body-conscious-book/</a> or via Amazon for anyone outside of Australia. </p><ul><li><em>Do I take time to connect to myself sensually? </em></li><li><em>What does that look like for me? </em></li><li><em>How do you feel when you connect with myself in this way? </em></li><li><em>How does that change my experience of life?</em></li><li><em>How does that change my experience of sex? </em></li><li><em>Have you explored your own body and self-pleasure? </em></li><li><em>What are my thoughts around self-pleasure and sexual self-pleasure? </em></li><li><em>What does sensual energy look like + feel like to me?</em></li><li><em>How am I expressing myself sensually?</em></li><li><em>What brings me pleasure & joy in my life?</em></li><li><em>Where in my life would I like to explore a deeper sense of sensual connection?
