Your Guide to Better Sex

Alex Cooper
About this episode

This week, Father Cooper is joined by clinical psychologist Dr. Lori Brotto. How should we overcome issues like low sexual arousal, lack of orgasm, and painful sex? What even is a “normal” sex drive? Do I have a sexual dysfunction? Dr. Brotto breaks down all of these questions and walks us through a variety of specific strategies anyone can implement in order to achieve better and more pleasurable sex. Join Dr. Brotto at the end of the episode for a guided sexual sensations meditation that you can try in the privacy of your own bedroom (grab those vibrators). Enjoy!
