We’re back for part two of our discussion about feminine libido!In our last episode, we touched on many of the spiritual factors that need to be taken into account when we’re looking at our libido. If we are not in a state of feminine energy, we will struggle with our libidos. This is a constant struggle with the pressures that have been pushed on us by society over the past several decades. In order for us to truly understand our libido, we must first nourish ourselves on a nutritional level to support our metabolism and the role it plays in our ovulation. For women who find themselves in a state of burnout and masculine energy, we must shift back into our feminine energy to truly experience the vulnerability and surrender that is necessary for sexual pleasure. Join me today as we get down to the nitty-gritty of the feminine libido and the steps that you can take to get back on track with your nourishment, your feminine energy, and your partner. In this episode:[03:00] The tissues of the female physiology, how they retain tension and stress, and the hormones responsible. [07:43] The different drivers between male and female libidos and the impact of pheromones.[11:02] A breakdown of the infradian rhythm and its impact on the female libido.[13:40] The differences between male and female arousal and the role it plays in the female pleasure in sex. [19:38] Understanding the impact of ovulation on the female libido and the hormones that are involved.[23:58] Estrogen imbalances and the impact it has on sex and libido.[26:17] Our bodies must be nourished for our physiology to perform appropriately and contribute to our libido.[30:57] The relationship dynamic between men and women and some of the factors that may be impacting our libido and sexual relationships with our partners. [34:00] Women being in a state of masculine energy can often be the catalyst for relationship breakdowns. [36:20] Thanks for joining me today on the Fully Nourished Podcast! Links and Resources:Check out Jigsaw Health Use code Jess10 for $10 offCheck Out Kossma BeautyThis is Your Brain on Birth Control by Sarah HillEpisode 2: Energy is Everything: An Introduction to BioenergeticsEpisode 5: Unleash the Rhythm: How to Respect and Optimize Your Unique PhysiologyEpisode 6:Trading Fertility for Fantasy Part 1: History of Female Physiology and Forging a New Path for our DaughtersEpisode 7:Trading Fertility for Fantasy Part 2: The Prosperous Power of Progesterone & the Double-Edged Sword of EstrogenConnect with Jessica:Have Sunday tea with me!
