Regenerative Whole Health Show: Why Stress is the Ultimate Bedroom Blocker: The Biology of Sex and Stress
When it comes to intimacy, stress is the ultimate mood killer. In this dynamic talk, we’ll dive into the powerful mind-body connection that explains why sex and stress simply can’t coexist. Discover the hormonal tug-of-war, the evolutionary wiring behind it, and how modern life sabotages intimacy — plus actionable strategies to restore balance, connection, and pleasure.
What you'll learn:
1. The Neurobiology of Conflict: How cortisol, adrenaline, and the fight-or-flight response shut down sexual desire, arousal, and intimacy.
2. The Hormonal Hijack: The delicate dance between oxytocin, dopamine, and cortisol — and how chronic stress disrupts sexual function in both men and women.
3. Breaking the Cycle: Practical tools to lower stress, reset the nervous system, and create a hormonal environment that supports intimacy, desire, and satisfaction.
