To be healthy and able-bodied is a blessing and the possibility of that changing MANY TIMES throughout the course of our lives is very realistic. Bodies change. Health events occur. To both us and to our loved ones, and thus, we experience different erotic seasons. In this episode, I invite Chris Maxwell Rose to lead a discussion on the love and compassion we need to give ourselves when our health takes a nose-dive. How does sexuality change? Intimacy? Desire? Touch? We discuss how to listen to our bodies and TRUST ourselves. We also exchange stories of how we developed Type 1 Diabetes and talk about the effect it had on our sex lives. Chris Rose is Co-host of "Speaking of Sex with the Pleasure Mechanics" a podcast who is approaching almost 400 episodes at the time of this recording. She and her partner Charlotte have a combined expertise of 30 years of experience teaching individuals and couples in how to experience more pleasure. They train sexuality educators and coaches, and are certified sexologists and massage therapists. www.pleasuremechanics.com ____________________ Donate to the To Hump A Pillow podcast: https://www.patreon.com/ellenmelon Links we talked about: FREE COURSE: The Erotic Essentials by the Pleasure Mechanics: https://pleasuremechanics.teachable.com/p/the-erotic-essentials/?affcode=160539_lgpqtcim Childhood Disrupted: How Your Biography Becomes Your Biology, and How You Can Heal: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P42M08O/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 ACEs are Adverse Childhood Experiences: https://sisterhoodagenda.com/are-aces-putting-you-at-risk/ The Body Keeps the Score: Mind, Brain and Body in the Transformation of Trauma: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IICN1F8/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 Audre Lorde reads Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic As Power (FULL Updated): https://youtu.be/aWmq9gw4Rq0 ____________________ Ellen Melon Social Media links: https://www.instagram.com/ellenmelonshow/ https://twitter.com/EllenMelonShow https://www.facebook.com/ellenmelonshow www.ellenmelon.com ____________________
