Identifying Your Sexual Style

Posted by: | Comments Comments Off

Couples often avoid sex because their sex life has become dissatisfying or conflictual.  If talking about it is uncomfortable (and for most it is, at least a bit), avoidance can become the path of least resistance. Lack of time is often a convenient excuse. Talking about sexual concerns in a caring way and planning together for sexual revitalization can be the cure for avoidance.

Most couples can work through their sexual frustrations and miscommunications simply by learning to communicate about what is important to them and what works for them and what feels intolerable to them and why

In this episode of Sex after Divorce, Juliana Neiman provides a “statement check -list” to help us to recognize our sexual preferences.  Once we have a better understanding of our sexual desires, the goal is to share our needs with our new partner in a healthy way.

Masturbation - Sex after Divorce Part 5

Posted by: | Comments Comments Off

In Episode #5 of Sex after Divorce with sex therapist, Juliana Neiman, we discuss masturbation.

Masturbation is looked at as taboo by some and others were raised to believe that it’s wrong to pleasure yourself.  In addition to feeling good, masturbation is a good way of relieving the sexual tension that can build up over time, especially for people without partners or whose partners are not willing or available for sex. Masturbation also is a safe sexual alternative for people who wish to avoid pregnancy and the dangers of sexually transmitted diseases.

Medically, It relieves stress and keeps everything about your body—your heart rate, blood pressure, reproductive system, brain chemistry—in very good shape .A 2003 Australian study found that men who ejaculated more than five times a week were a third less likely to develop prostate cancer. Regularly flushing your system, so to speak, keeps your semen healthy and prevents the build up of cancer-causing chemicals.

So why all the hush hush?  Juliana breaks down the myths associated with masturbation and helps us understand how to live a more fulfilling life in future relationships.
