Produktbeschreibung

The #1 Book Recommended by Sex Therapists Around the World A Cosmopolitan Best Book About Sex That Everyone Should Read A New York Times Book for Better Sex A book full of wisdom, kindness, permission, and hope.Emily Nagoski, bestselling author of Come as You Are In Better Sex Through Mindfulness, acclaimed psychologist and sex researcher Dr. Lori Brotto shows how mindfulness is the key to cultivating desire, increasing sexual pleasure, and finding joy in intimacy. Studies show that approximately half of all women experience some kind of sexual difficulty at one point in their lives, with lack of interest in sex being by far the most common―and the most distressing. And when sex suffers, so do all other areas of life. But it doesn't have to be that way. In Better Sex through Mindfulness, Dr. Brotto offers a revolutionary approach to improving desire, arousal, and satisfaction inside―and outside of―the bedroom. A pioneer in the use of mindfulness for treating sexual difficulties, Brotto has helped hundreds of women cultivate more exciting, fulfilling sexual experiences. In this accessible, relatable book, she explores the various reasons for sexual problems, such as stress and incessant multitasking, and tells the stories of many of the women she has treated over the years. She also provides easy, effective exercises that readers can do on their own to increase desire and sexual enjoyment, whether their goal is to overcome a sexual difficulty or simply give their love life a boost.
