Publisher's summary

A groundbreaking look at improving desire, arousal, and sexual satisfaction through mindfulness.

Studies show that approximately half of all women experience some kind of sexual difficulty at one point in their lives, with lack of interest in sex being by far the most common - and the most distressing. And when sex suffers, so do all other areas of life.

But it doesn't have to be that way. In Better Sex Through Mindfulness, acclaimed psychologist and sex researcher Lori A. Brotto offers a groundbreaking approach to improving desire, arousal, and satisfaction inside - and outside of - the bedroom.

A pioneer in the use of mindfulness for treating sexual difficulties, Brotto has helped hundreds of women cultivate more exciting, fulfilling sexual experiences. In this accessible, relatable audiobook, she explores the various reasons for sexual problems, such as stress and incessant multitasking, and tells the stories of many of the women she has treated over the years. She also provides easy, effective exercises that listeners can do on their own to increase desire and sexual enjoyment, whether their goal is to overcome a sexual difficulty or simply give their love life a boost.

Enlightening and Informative

Book vacilated from easy reading and uplifting to detailed and technical. Overall, very useful in enabling a thorough understanding of the challenges and opportunities to enhance and regain the essential sensual connection between partners.

Mindfulness is good for so many things!

This author took a lot of time to research women and their sexuality, and wrote such a thoughtful book about how mindfulness can help with sexual issues

Informational and Thorough

If you're looking for a book of exercises and feel good quotes, this isn't it. But very useful and chock full of studies, explanations, and things to think about. Would definitely recommend.

Great resource

Filled with fact based information on mindfulness, sexuality, women’s pleasure and how to integrate into regular practice and life

Great Information

As a sex and relationship coach it is a very informative and will help in my practice.

Life changing information

After reading a few books on sexual health and sexual relationships- I can firmly say that this is the most productive, science backed, tangible, interesting, and helpful book I’ve found on improving your sex life, healing sexual pain and trauma, and the science behind sexual mindfulness for healing.

Very medical and mindful

Lots of info shared in very clinical way and occasionally as such sounds like a commercial for a female sex replacement therapy, more likely bc of the narrators tone than the subject matter.
And I think that’s a wonderful way to present an otherwise controversial topic; clean and of anatomy, understanding and makes it very accessible z

Great Content for Coaching Couples

As an Yoga teacher I love to practice Mindfulness. What great content for women! I have found the exercises really helpful! I highly recommend this book.
