Following our episode on embodiment, we’re diving into the topics of parts of self, sex and pleasure because without presence, we are cheating ourselves out of healthy relationships and empowered sexual experiences. Hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth have brought back Dr. Joli Hamilton, relationship coach and sex educator, to help them further examine how the relationship with our parts of self impact the way we behave towards ourselves and others.   A disconnection between our parts of self causes dysregulation, a lack of safety and intimacy in relationships, and even projection. But in this episode, you’ll learn how to have conversations with your parts of self, how to take ownership of your orgasm, and how NSI practices can help you heal.   We also discuss the concept of multiplicity, how trauma affects our ability to connect with our parts, and if dissociation during sex and sexual fawning changes the rules of consent. Plus, can a cervical orgasm stimulate the vagus nerve?   Listen in as we share the NSI tools that have helped us regulate our nervous system and connect with our body!   Topics discussed in this episode:   Honoring your parts of self by giving them a voice Projection of our disintegrated parts onto others What we’ve gained from using NSI tools Exploring pleasure and improving intimacy The connection between nervous system regulation and orgasm Dissociation during sex, sexual fawning and consent Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program here: https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com/?utm_medium=aff-traumarewired&utm_content&utm_source   Learn more about Dr. Joli Hamilton and her work at https://www.jolihamilton.com   Interested in exploring your sexual self in Dr. Joli’s Sexual Shadow Masterclass?
