Summary

Having trouble connecting with your partner sexually and emotionally? Sex expert Jaiya Ma says it can be because of your unprocessed traumas and lack of self-love. In this wildly vulnerable episode of the Align Podcast, world-renowned sexologist Jaiya Ma and her partner Ian Ferguson reveal the top secrets to having the best sex of your life. Hint: Great sex isn't about what you do; it's about who you are. Jaiya and Ian talk about the importance of taking on "masks" or personas to fully express your erotic self without the conditioned feeling of shame. In this rare instance, Jaiya also openly shares her struggle with an incurable Complex Post-traumatic Disorder (CPTSD) and how it interfered with her relationship with Ian and herself, leading her to test the healing wonders of Psychedelics. Highlighting the naked truth that humans are wired for pleasure, this power couple aims to put an end to the institutionalized shame around sexuality. If you want to get over that shame and optimize your sexual life, this episode is for you. Jaiya is an award-winning author and Somatic Sexologist with over two decades of clinical research and client observation under her belt. She is the creator of The Erotic Blueprints and writer of best-selling books “Red Hot Touch” and “Cuffed, Tied & Satisfied.” She and Ian are contributors to the hit Netflix show, “Love, Sex, and Goop.” What we discuss: 3:30 - How self-love affects your sex life 4:36 - The Attachment Theory: Why you feel unsafe in a relationship 6:40 - Coping with Complex Post-traumatic Disorder (CTPSD) 17:30 - Jaiya's experience of MDMA/Ecstasy as treatment for CTPSD 25:00 - What taking on erotic personas really mean 28:26 - Empowered Erotic Persona Work: Identities you can try with your partner 35:20 - How to deal with sexual shame 38:20 - How to activate your pleasure hormones through paradoxical breathing 1:00:00 - Sex, death, and orgasm 1:06:00 - The secret to falling in love with yourself and your partner again Learn more from their website: https://missjaiya.com/ Related links: www.alignpodcast.com/alignmethod for a special discount eatonhemp.com/align and use ALIGN code during checkout to save 20 percent www.magbreakthrough.com/alignpodcast and use ALIGN10 during checkout to save 10 percent.
