If you've ever experienced dread around making love due to the "ick," pain, anxiety, shame, or being too tired, this episode is for you! I'm excited to introduce a dear friend and mentor of mine, who is also a trained Tao Tantric Priestess, Integrative Nutrition Coach, and Yoga Teacher. Her name is Shayna Hiller. In this episode, we will discuss the causes of dread around sex, as well as what you can do to start looking forward to sex especially if it's gotten stale in the bedroom. You're not alone; No, you're not broken, and no, you're not necessarily with the wrong partner if you're not feeling turned on by their mere presence!   Register for the Sex Anxiety Clinic: https://www.anxiouslovecoach.com/sexanxietyclinic   To apply for Shayna's retreat and/or training: www.embodiedwisdomretreat.com or Shayna's website www.shaynahiller.com   Next ALC Patreon community call: Saturday, March 2nd at 9am PST/12pm EST: www.patreon.com/anxiouslovecoach.com   Who we are: Natalie Kennedy @Anxiouslovecoach Shayna Hiller @Shaynahiller   Time Stamps: 6:52 Shayna’s long-term celibacy in her twenties 12:43  Clearing sexual trauma through the tantric arts 19:51  Inspiring your partner to be their best selves 26:34  Deciding that you don’t like sex, when the reality is that you dislike the sex you are having 30:21  How stress leads to anxiety in the bedroom 37:10  Normalizing the ebbs and flows in your relationship and your sex life 38:30  Scheduling sex 46:15  What to do when you dread having sex with your healthy, loving partner 1:05:00 Sex Anxiety Masterclass on March 14th 2pm PST 1:11:12 You are wired for pleasure 1:14:43 Shayna’s Embodied Wisdom Retreat
