Somatic Therapy and the Forgotten Language of Eroticism

This unique interdisciplinary guide brings together the most effective practices of somatic psychotherapy, dance-movement therapy, and sex therapy. The book explains how to derive more pleasure and enjoyment from physical contact and intimacy with a partner.

The author examines the erotic body in the context of a sex-negative culture of prejudice. Adhering to a somatic approach, the author helps readers better understand their erotic "self," restore their sexuality, and become part of a larger social movement towards erotic inclusivity. The book shows how to rid oneself of harmful prejudices about one's own sexuality, learn to listen to one's "self," and begin to appreciate one's body.

Filled with advice, practical recommendations, and exercises, the book will be an indispensable guide for sexologists, enabling them to better navigate the diversity of sexual issues and approaches to restoring sexual health.
