The Disconnected Dreamer
You feel emotionally distant, struggle to stay present during intimacy, and crave a deeper connection with your partner.The Disconnected Dreamer low-libido type typically sounds like at least one of these..."I just don't feel that same spark anymore." "I'm overthinking constantly and can't slow down and be present in my body.""I feel numb and disconnected during sex.""I wish I felt more relaxed, at ease, and connected during sex.""I worry constantly about what my body looks like and what my partner is thinking.""I check out whenever my partner is going down on me."It makes sense why this is happening...COMMON CAUSES OF THIS LOW-LIBIDO TYPE:sex has become boring, routine, and not exciting enough to keep you engagedbody image challenges that keep you stuck in loops of self-criticismfear of deeper emotions or intimacy that keeps other people at a slight distancelack of education around sex, relationships, and pleasure so you don't know how to have sex that's fun and excitingpast painful experiences with sex or relationships that you're overlaying with the present moment that make it hard to stay in your bodyyou have ADHD or anxietytrauma that has you feeling uneasy, second-guessing, or unsafeour fast-paced lifestyle that prioritizes intellect, achievement, and "hard work" over rest and slowing downhigh stress from being constantly being "plugged in" to your phone, work, social media, kids, or the TVpeople-pleasing and worrying about your what partner wants instead of what you want đ COMMON MISTAKES YOU MIGHT BE MAKING THAT ARE MAKING YOUR LIBIDO EVEN LOWER:...starting every day with scrolling on your phone, drinking coffee, and jumping right into work...getting too comfortable with your partner (or being so tired from life tired from your life) that âdate nightsâ are Netflix or movies on the couch to ârelaxâ (aka check out and numb) and scrolling while you do it (feeding your cortisol addiction) ...not showing your partner physical affection because youâre afraid to turn them on and then turn them down for sex...being the person everyone relies on, but never asking for help from anyone (Miss Independent)...putting self-care and sex last on the list of priorities because thereâs a pile of âmore importantâ to-dos...just having sex to please your partner because you think itâs what a good wife/girlfriend is supposed to do...never celebrating your accomplishments, accepting compliments, or slowing down enjoy to your life but instead just rushing to the next task over and over...doing the same 3 moves over and over in sex and never trying anything new...rushing through foreplay because youâre uncomfortable and feel guilty and like youâre taking too longThere are four main components to creating a thriving libido and craving sex again (that I teach in depth in my program, The Intimacy Accelerator). But today, I want to give you one simple tool to start practicing pleasure, slowing down, and learning how to have sex that's fun and connected so you'll start to want it again.SPEND 5 MIN EXPLORING YOUR BODY AND PRACTICING SELF-PLEASURE WITH SENSATION MAPPING: Sensation mapping is a way to learn how to stay present and build intimacy, patience, and trust with yourself.It will also help you immensely in learning that it's safe to slow down, feel, and be in the moment.You can also use this as a tool for discovering new things that you like in sex and with your partner!Hereâs howâŚSet a timer for five minutes.Take some deep breaths and begin to slowly explore your body with your hands.If you get distracted, no problem, just refocus back on sensations that feel good.Try different speeds, locations, and pressures.Make sounds, take more deep breaths.Follow what feels good.Here are the questions for reflection afterwards: What part of my body felt the best to touch?What type of touch felt best to me?What emotions came up during the experience? What thoughts came up most often?Sensation mapping consistently will help you learn how to stay present in your body long enough for your libido to start to come back.Learning to stay present in your body is essential for your libido. But thatâs just one of the four components of creating a thriving libido and craving sex again.Without the other three (re-wiring negative beliefs about sex, knowing what to do to turn yourself on, and communicating with your partner), youâll only get so far.That's why I created The Intimacy AcceleratorFor women in relationships to turn on, feel more pleasure, and create a passionate, playful sex life that lasts forever.The Intimacy Accelerator is for you if you......canât remember the last time you thought about wanting sex spontaneously on a Tuesday...wish you wanted sex more and know you have some limiting beliefs or baggage about sex and intimacy that stop you from wanting it or initiating...feel guilty that you aren't as affectionate as you were when you first started dating but you're afraid that if you lead your partner on you'll have to reject them...you've let life, stress, kids, or work take priority over intimacy and sex and it's hard to want to make the time...know that sex could be better but don't know what you want and figuring it out is at the bottom of a very long list of priorities and to-dosAnd these days, even when you *do* have sexâduring that one special day of the month when you actually wanted toâyou just end up trying to hurry up and get it over with.I get it (and Iâve been there, too). After the 90-Day Intimacy Accelerator, sex could feel more like:Unlocking YOUR sexual power and preferences without feeling ashamed, or judgedKnowing EXACTLY how to describe what you do and donât like in the bedroomShowing up for yourself first, even if you were saying ânoâ to sex that nightLetting go of the shame that says youâre broken, and sex is just one more daily obligation on your to-do listI believe that sex and pleasure and intimacy donât have to feel like something youâve just gotta get through to get on with your day. Or something you have to do just to make them happy.>> CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE & JOIN <<
