Katie Ziskind, relationship coach and sex and intimacy specialist, shares ways how you can build sexual confidence. Building sexual confidence is a personal journey that involves self-discovery, communication, and embracing your own sexuality. Here are some ways to enhance your sexual confidence that we discuss in this podcast episode.
Understand the Impact of a Strict, Religious Upbringing: Growing up with shame, guilt, fear, and anxiety around your sexuality and sexual urges leads to a lack of confidence in your sexuality. As a result, there may be inner conflict with expressing your sexuality and being open in sexual activities with yourself and your partner or partners.
Self-Massage: Use warm oil to massage and touch your body, which better soothes your nervous system, relaxes your mind, build mindbody awareness, and helps you understand what you like touch-wise.
Self-Exploration: Take time to explore your own body and understand what brings you pleasure. This self-awareness is crucial for communicating your desires to your partner and feeling confident in your own skin.
Communication with Partner: Open and honest communication with your partner is key. Discuss your desires, boundaries, and fantasies. Knowing that you can express yourself without judgment fosters a supportive and trusting environment.
Educate Yourself: Knowledge is empowering. Learn about sexual health, anatomy, and different aspects of intimacy. Understanding the mechanics of pleasure can boost confidence and reduce anxiety.
