269. Becoming a More Embodied Lover with Jim Benson

Hey hey! Welcome back to the Owning Your Sexual Self podcast! This week I’m joined by Jim Benson for a really powerful conversation around male pleasure, intimacy, embodiment, and connection. Jim has spent more than two decades helping men become more confident, present, and skillful lovers through his work in tantra, coaching, and somatic based sexuality education. He brings such a refreshing perspective to conversations around sex, shame, performance, and pleasure, and I absolutely loved where this discussion went.

In this episode:

• Why many men never learned intimacy skills
• How porn impacts connection and presence
• Routine sex versus embodied sex
• How shame and trauma affect sex
• Balancing pleasure and connection
• Using breathwork to increase pleasure
• Creating intimacy through touch and breath
• Why sex can get better with age
