"Wellness is the freedom to move fluidly through the cycles of being human. Welness is thus not a state of being; it is a state of action."

-- Burnout: The Secret To Unlocking The Stress Cycle by Emily and Amelia Nagoski

listening to this podcast, i discovered diamonds, here some:
"-sex is not a drive, like hunger, termoregulation, or connection with other humans. you die of loneliness, but you don't die of lack of sex.
-pleasure is what matters, not frequency. What is important is enjoying the sex you are having, not checking a box.

-folks in heterosexual relationships have fewer orgasms, less variety of sexual experiences, less actual pleasure, they are the less likely to cuddle, to say I love you, to kiss during sex...and yet they have more of it, they have more sex they like less"

Reading and listening to #emilynagoski is so refreshing. I've always been an open and #kinky person. My partner, not so much. However, this is giving us the language to talk to each other about it and figure it out. #sex #comeasyouare #cometogether #burnout

Really enjoying listening to the audiobook version of #ComeAsYouAre by #EmilyNagoski I have had to take it a section at a time to process it in context with my own wide ranging sexual experiences. That said, it talks about so many things from the biological to the psychological it's actually triggering thoughts impacting a far wider part of my life than just sex/romantic relationships. Very interesting book. Highly Recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #Books #Prose #NonFiction #SelfDevelopment #Psychology
