For today’s episode, I am joined by Christin Henke, somatic sex coach, pleasure activist, and trauma nerd. We talk about dealing with dissonant experiences, masturbatory shame, and getting into a space of regulation and safety in the nervous system. Christin also talks about “leaving your body”, how to self-assess, and get Christin’s word of wisdom.   Let’s delve in!   In this Episode You’ll Learn: [07:32] Where do we start? [18:31] Having “both, and” dissonant experiences. [25:07] Masturbatory shame. [33:09] Getting to regulation and safety in the nervous system. [40:46] Using “leaving your body” in a positive way. [44:22] How to self-assess. [49:52] Christin’s one tool.   Quotes:  “Your body knows all of the factors that you can’t actually process in the moment because you’re overwhelmed.” [20:23] “Masturbatory shame is my bread and butter.” [25:58] “Sometimes working on things that are going to benefit your sex life are decidedly unsexy.” [37:31] “Be all there, so that you’re not getting whipped back and forth between the past and present.” [54:59]   Connect with Christin Website:            https://www.christinhenke.com Instagram:          @christin.henke   Connect with Rachel Wright Website:            https://rachelwrightnyc.com Instagram:          @thewright_rachel Twitter:              @thewrightrachel   WIN A FREE INTIMACY AFTER DARK DECK!   Get 30% OFF the NEW After Dark Deck!
