165. From Sex Ed to Sensual Mastery: Unleashing Your Artistry in the Bedroom

In this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD, delves into the shortcomings of traditional sex education and proposes a new paradigm for learning about sexual intimacy. She discusses the importance of emotional intimacy, experimentation, and releasing preconceived notions about sexuality to craft an artful, gratifying sexual experience. The episode also highlights the crucial role parents have in ensuring their children receive an education that encompasses pleasure, consent, and respect within sexual encounters.   Also in this episode: Knowing one's anatomy is fundamental, but exploring the feelings and experiences surrounding the act of sex is what truly enriches intimacy. Parents should be proactive in educating their children about the deeper aspects of sex, tailoring the conversation to their family culture and values. While traditional sex ed is important for scientific accuracy and health awareness, it falls short in areas of pleasure, connection, and passion.   Sign up for the FREE Valentine’s Day course: https://hubs.ly/Q02kpFxK0 Referenced in the episode: Women’s Anatomy of Arousal by Sheri Winston: https://amzn.to/3jpUvZe    Listen to Episode 128: Embodied Sexuality, with Sheri Winston https://www.alexandrastockwell.com/128-embodied-sexuality-how-to-connect-with-your-partner-through-enjoying-more-satisfying-sexual-experiences-w-sheri-winston/ Listen to Episode 129: Understanding the Complexity of the Sexual Differences between Men and Women  https://www.alexandrastockwell.com/understanding-the-complexity-of-the-sexual-differences-between-men-and-women-feat-sheri-winston/   Listen to Episode 137: How to Elevate Married Sex from Good to Great https://www.alexandrastockwell.com/how-to-elevate-married-sex-from-good-to-great-with-expertise-from-an-intimacy-coach/   Subscribe To The Intimate Marriage Podcast: Apple Podcast | YouTube | Spotify Connect With Alexandra Stockwell, MD: Website | Linkedin | Instagram   Get your copy of “Uncompromising Intimacy” by Dr. Alexandra Stockwell here: https://amzn.to/2ymI3Hl Download the first chapter of Dr Alexandra’s bestselling book, “Uncompromising Intimacy,” here:  https://www.alexandrastockwell.com/book Cultivate your intimacy skills (without compromise) in Aligned & Hot Marriage, Dr. Alexandra’s proven method for smart couples ready to love more fully:  www.alignedhotmarriage.com Join Dr. Alexandra’s email list to stay connected.

An intimacy coach is a trained professional who specializes in helping individuals and couples cultivate deeper connections and enhance their intimate relationships. The role of an intimacy coach is to guide and support their clients in exploring various aspects of intimacy, including emotional, physical, and sexual intimacy. Intimacy coaches create a safe and non-judgmental space for their clients to express their needs, desires, and concerns related to intimacy. An intimacy coach helps clients develop self-awareness and emotional intelligence, enabling them to better understand their own desires and those of their partner. They provide guidance on effective communication techniques, conflict resolution, and exploring new ways to deepen emotional and physical intimacy.
