Mating and RelatingAuthor: Brianna Endrina
Where curiosity meets conversation! Mating and Relating is bringing the real, the taboo and the relatable to the table in love, sex and relationships! Im Bri and my mission for the M&R Podcast is to be a safe space to explore the nuances of relationships and sex. We are connective beings meant to nourish and embrace our erotic nature with ourselves and with others. Whether platonic, romantic, monogamy, multi-gamy or somewhere in between, we all desire to live and feel fully expressed, safely loved and well f*cked; specifically in the ways that nurture and expand our individual versions of self and intimacy. Each week Ill aim to normalize the convo and refine the stigmas around sex and love through candid chats, personal experiences, educated segments and empowering tidbits to show you just how relatable your desires and situations actually are! Invite your friends, your partner, your mother or your platonic lovers and join the convo everyone is begging to have more of!

Send it over and listen out for a response during the following episode!The brain is our biggest sex organ, with areas like the anterior cingulate cortex and genital sensory cortex activating during both physical stimulation and erotic thoughts. Understanding how to seduce the mind creates a foundation for profound physical pleasure experiences.• Pleasure begins between the ears, not between the thighs• The brain crotch (genital sensory cortex) activates during both physical stimulation and imagination• Mental blocks to pleasure are like being stuck in traffic—anxiety and overthinking stall desire• Dr. Emily Nagoski's dual control model explains desire as having accelerators and brakes• Releasing the brakes (stress, shame, distractions) is more important than pressing the accelerator• Effective mental seduction techniques include anticipation, suggestion, dirty talk, and sensory deprivation• Fantasy play, erotic intelligence, and forbidden thrills create powerful mental arousal• Taking time with mental stimulation before physical touch transforms intimate experiencesSend me a DM or comment on the podcast to let me know which technique you tried and how it went.
