Sex, Health, and Consciousness

Explore how the intersection of sex, health, and consciousness unlocks a new paradigm of pleasure.Our sexuality is an integral part of who we are, yet our understanding of sex has been warped by everything from age-old taboos and religious dogma to a popular culture that views sexuality as transactional. With Sex, Health, and Consciousness, Liz Goldwyn, founder of the thriving online platform and podcast The Sex Ed, has created an inclusive, holistic, and much-needed guide to sexual well-being-and the pleasure that's possible when we embrace our sexuality as a natural part of a healthy human experience. In this comprehensive resource, Goldwyn shows readers how to expand their pleasure potential through an in-depth exploration of how our sexuality, physical and emotional health, and consciousness are intimately woven together. Gender fluid and non-age specific, Sex, Health, and Consciousness goes well beyond Sex 101, covering spiritual and energetic influences on sexuality-such as the chakra system, yin and yang energies, mindfulness practice, and more-along with social and biological factors-including research on sexual health and first-person accounts of sexual awakening. "In order to have the best relationship with your sexuality, and therefore the best sex possible, you need to make sure your mind, body, and consciousness are in alignment," writes Goldwyn. "Because experiencing greater joy, connection, and pleasure is your birthright."
