    58. Managing Jealousy in Relationships ft. Multiamory

    Why do we feel jealous? Jealousy is often a complex, catch-all word that encompasses the emotions of fear, anxiety, disappointment, or anger.   Some people romanticize this feeling in relationships. Others use jealousy as a justification for controlling and destructive behaviour.   On this episode, Sara sits down with Emily, Dedeker, and Jase, the hosts of the Multiamory Podcast (https://www.multiamory.com/), to unpack the topic of jealousy.   We start off by defining what jealousy is, and sharing candid personal experiences to show it’s a familiar, normal feeling.   Instead of trying to avoid or repress jealousy at all costs, Emily, Dedeker and Jase provide a healthy perspective and evidence-based tools on how to deal with jealousy, based on their own relationship research.   Ultimately, feeling some jealousy could be a sign that there’s something you need to work on in a relationship with a partner or on yourself. And it’s crucial to do some self-reflection to identify the root cause of the emotion.   This episode is filled with practical advice about navigating difficult emotions in relationships. Tune in now to understand what your jealous feelings are telling you, and how you can manage them the next time you experience it.   ---    Unlock the secrets to female orgasm  http://sarasense.com/ohhh.

  2. The Healing Practice of Yoni Massage

    26/01/2023

    The Healing Practice of Yoni Massage

    Yoni massage, which has its origins in Tantra, has recently been getting a lot of attention in the sexual wellness space.    What is the meaning of Yoni anyway? It’s Sanskrit term that means “sacred portal” and it represents all the female genital parts - the vulva, vagina, womb and feminine essence.   On this episode, Sara is joined by her sex-positive friend Will and Viv Kan (https://www.mindfulintimacy.co), a mindful intimacy coach. They discuss the benefits of yoni massage, what the experience is like and how to incorporate this practice in our intimate lives.    For some, a yoni massage can be used to release emotions or trauma stuck in the pelvic area. And for others, it can be the start of a sexual awakening.    Both Sara and Viv share their memorable experiences around Yoni massages, and how orgasm is not the end goal but an exploration of one’s body and sexual empowerment.    Viv also breaks down how to give yourself or someone else a Yoni massage — from setting the stage to exploring the different parts of female genitals. There are a bunch of practical tips in this episode.    Be inspired to embrace your sensuality and awaken pleasure with this liberating practice by tuning into this episode. ------   -   Support this show on Patreon http://patreon.com/betterinbed   -   Visit Sarasense website http://sarasense.com   -   Follow @hellosarasense on Instagram   -   Check out our sponsors that help keep this show free: OhMiBod (http://lovelifetoys.com) - 15% off with code BETTERINBED and Adam & Eve (http://adameve.com) - 50% off & free shipping with code BETTERINBED   -    Detailed show notes for this episode at http://sarasense.com/podcast

So how do you navigate a good work life, sex life balance?   On this episode, Sara talks with Lisa Fei and celebrity matchmaker Carmelia Ray about how to juggle a busy work life and maintain a fulfilling sex life.

    How to Enjoy Porn Ethically with Paulita Pappel

    How can you enjoy porn ethically - with more of the pleasure and less of the guilt?    Porn is commonly used to accompany masturbation. On this episode, Sara chats with erotic filmmaker Paulita Pappel (www.paulitapappel.com) on what constitutes “ethical porn” and how to consume it in a healthy and responsible way.  As someone who has been both in front and behind the camera, Paulita shares her journey into erotic filmmaking and how she defines her role as a feminist in the industry.   She shares her personal motivations around starting Lustery, a shame-free space for people to share home-made videos of their love and lust with the world.   We also discuss the changing conversation around porn, which is becoming more nuanced and take some time to challenge some commonly held stereotypes.   We wrap up the conversation with some practical tips on being an ethical porn consumer and setting aside the performative mindset around sex.   Instead of porn being a topic fueled by stigma, this conversation with Paulita relooks at porn as a genre of entertainment and a way to understand our sexuality, when used responsibly.   So if you want to develop better porn habits or explore new fantasies, this episode will give you the tools to make the most informed choices in terms of what you consume.      ---   -   Support this show on Patreon http://patreon.com/betterinbed   -   Visit Sarasense website http://sarasense.com   -   Follow @hellosarasense on Instagram   -  Check out our sponsors that help keep this show free: OhMiBod (http://lovelifetoys.com, @ohmibod) and Promescent (http://promescent.com, @promescent)   -  Detailed show notes for this episode at http://sarasense.com/podcast

  7. Oh My G! Finding & Stimulating the G-Spot

    04/11/2022

    Oh My G! Finding & Stimulating the G-Spot

    It’s been called the “Holy Grail” of the woman’s pleasure anatomy. But does the G-spot even exist? It's been a highly debated question.   And one that Sara discusses with co-host Kat Leung and guest Vera Lui on this episode. Vera is the founder of Sally Coco (http://sallystoy.com), the first female-friendly sex toy shop in Hong Kong, and a certified sex educator who is happy to share the latest research on the G-spot (or more accurately, G-area), and debunk its biggest myths.   Finding and stimulating one's G-spot takes time and practice. We explore the many methods to go about it— whether solo with fingers, with toys, or with the assistance of an encouraging partner.   We talk about a big fantasy for some — squirting. We answer all your questions: Why does squirting tend to occur with G-spot stimulation? What makes up the liquid? How does porn influence our ideas on squirting? And so much more.   We also share practical tips and personal stories that make finding your G-spot achievable. Ultimately, we reach the conclusion: everybody is different. But it’s always worth exploring what feels good, especially when it could lead to an intensely satisfying orgasm.   So if you’re someone who wants to explore the G-spot, whether on your own or with someone else, this episode will give you the confidence to unlock its possibilities.    ---   -   Support this show on Patreon http://patreon.com/betterinbed   -   Visit Sarasense website http://sarasense.com   -   Follow @hellosarasense on Instagram   -   Check out our sponsors that help keep this show free: Womanizer https://www.womanizer.com   -   Detailed show notes for this episode at http://sarasense.com/podcast

    Sex FAQs - How Do I Get My Libido Back?

    How do I get my libido back? From antidepressants, to trying to conceive and having kids, Sara invites clinical psychologist and sex therapist Dr. Kristin Zeising (http://drzeising.com) on this Sex FAQs episode to tackle the different real-life situations that could cause one’s libido to do a disappearing act. We answer the following questions: “Sex is often over in seconds with my husband. But we ignored these issues because we were great friends. Now I just feel nothing towards him sexually. What should I do?”   “I enjoy masturbating regularly using porn. But when I masturbate too often, it makes me feel less sexually interested in my partner. Does masturbation help or hinder my sexual desire?”   “My girlfriend is on antidepressants and rarely in the mood for sex. It’s beginning to take a toll on my confidence and libido. What can I do?”   “I had a baby 5 years ago, and had post-natal depression. Since then, my libido has never returned. I want to have more desire, but when it comes time for sex, I’ll make any excuse to get out of it. Please help.”   “My wife and I have been trying unsuccessfully to conceive for over 2 years. Over time, my interest in sex has declined and now occasionally, I struggle to perform. What can we do?”   Kristin and Sara provide practical tips around how to prioritise pleasure and eliminate the pressure around sex, in order to revive the libido. We also give people ideas around opening this difficult conversation with a partner in a compassionate, non-judgemental way. Tune into this episode if you’re looking to break out of a dry spell or want practical tips for these everyday situations.
