The 60 Second Pleasure Point Challenge Speaking of Sex with The Pleasure Mechanics

    • Sexuality

Feeling disconnected from your partner, and maybe even from yourself? Here is a powerful framework from an award winning couples therapist to help you cultivate more moments of micropleasures into your daily life and loving relationships. Micropleasures are those experiences that bring you pleasure, joy and connection in 60 seconds or less.

The 60 Second Pleasure Point framework was originally developed by Peter Fraenkel PhD.







Couples therapists often use this exercise with partners who are on the brink of divorce, in sexless marriages, or struggling with intimacy. By committing to just 3 small acts of pleasure a day, couples are asked to form an “arc of connection” throughout the day. The cumulative results are profound, which is why this exercise has become a classic couples therapy practice.







Here at Pleasure Mechanics, we challenge us all to take on the 60 Second Pleasure Point framework as a way to first slow down and connect with our own pleasure – noticing at least three micropleasures every day – and then daring to share these pleasures with those we love. Small moments of joy and kindness can really add up to change your day, and your life.







Micropleasures can combine well with your understanding of Love Languages – click here for a podcast episode where we talk more about applying Love Languages to your erotic life.

How do we make it fit into our lived lives? How do we reclaim a sense of pleasure admidst the anxiety of modern life? How do we reclaim our attention and choose to pay attention to one another’s bodies instead of these devices all the time?







Chris Rose: 00:52 This is the first episode of 2020 and these are the kinds of things that are on our minds. How does sex and pleasure actually show up in our lived lives at this moment in humanity?
