Author: Cloud10 August 1, 2025 Duration: 37:21
In today's episode, we are joined by couple therapy expert and EFT trainer Rebecca Jorgensen. We discuss ways to tend the flame in the bedroom; practices couples can utilize for security and safety to increase their pleasure and have more fun! Dr. Jorgensen leads us in a conversation on what happens to the body and arousal when we don't feel safe and what partners need to do to maintain and improve safety. When our bodies feel safe, tended to and cared for, sex is more playful, creative and adventurous. Want to invite something new into your sexual routine? This episode will teach you how to do it the right way, the conversation you need to have before you try this and how partners can work together to navigate this in the bedroom. Rebecca and Laurie are hosting a women's only retreat in Salt Lake City, November 5th and 6th. The focus of the retreat will be honoring your body and exploring eroticism, femininity and ways to embody your sexual self!
