In Episode 29 of The Sex Education Podcast, we take an evidence-informed look at how mindfulness, somatic awareness, and sensate focus reduce performance anxiety and foster genuine bodily presence. Unpacking the concept of "spectatoring," we examine how self-critical mental narratives disrupt arousal and nervous system regulation. Learn practical strategies for grounding yourself using the 5-4-3-2-1 technique, practicing non-demanding sensate touch, managing body-image anxiety without judgment, and seeking support from certified sex therapists.
