Good Sex

Product Description

Jessica Graham is passionate about two things- sex and meditation. In Good Sex- Getting Off Without Checking Out, she shares mindfulness practices that will make sex better, more exciting, and more fulfilling. Good Sex begins with basic meditation instructions from a variety of techniques, followed by mindfulness exercises delving into communication difficulties, and the fear, attachment, and shame that can come up around sex. By exploring how mindfulness can heal these emotional wounds, readers will bring about big spiritual awakenings and increase intimacy. Unafraid to touch on a wide variety of ways to be sexual, Good Sex includes issues such as open-eyed orgasms and threesomes and how to handle a partner with a low sex drive. The book comes from a down-to-earth and inclusive perspective, borrowing from Buddhism, Hinduism, and Christianity, but easily accessible to the secular community and those with no spiritual or mediation background. Good Sex is also for people who already have great sex and want to explore new ways of loving. Though a blend of personal stories, mindfulness teachings and techniques, and exercises putting the practices into action, this book is a tool kit for creating a rich and deeply satisfying sex life. Good Sexis fun, dirty, gentle, transcendent, simple, exciting, and transformative. Good Sex is an adventure. No matter what sexual challenges you are facing, Good Sex can help you grow, heal, and awaken. Good Sex allows for evolution and flexibility. Humans are amazing creatures and what turns us on and gets us off can change many times throughout a life. Good Sex requires us to be willing to look with eyes wide open at our shadow self, our trauma, and our ingrained beliefs. Good Sex is neither being attached or indifferent. It is being fully present, without grasping, for the amazing thing that happens when people decide to come together to do what we have been doing since the beginning of humankind. And Good Sex is hot as hell, let's not forget that.Jessica Graham is passionate about two things- sex and meditation.
