Men's Groups: Unlocking Emotional Connection & Practicing Vulnerability
We continue recruiting for our Anxiously Intimate online men's group in our straight-leaning and queer-learning cohorts. We’ve received a lot of interest and intrigue in our groups and different questions about how the groups are run. So, to help you with your decision to join the group or share with a friend or client, we’ve created this FAQ for more details.
Anxious attachment styles: The hows, the why’s and the what do’s
Are you the type of person who panics when they're not around their partner? Do you feel like you’re uncertain of your relationship even if your partner says they love you? Do you find yourself scanning for proof that they do or don’t love you? If so, you may have an anxious attachment style. But, don't worry, there's nothing wrong with you!
Using sex to soothe
There’s no doubt that sex is a powerful thing. It can make us feel happy, fulfilled, and loved. Other times sex can be a way to connect, communicate, or care. Sometimes, people turn to sex as a way to soothe their emotions—especially when they’re feeling stressed, anxious, or grieving.
The truth about anxiety and desire
We all know that feeling. That pesky little voice in our head that tells us we're not good enough, smart enough, or sexy enough. It's the voice of anxiety, and for a lot of us, it can be debilitating. Anxiety can make it difficult to focus on anything else but our own perceived flaws.
What makes someone have responsive desire?
Does your partner know what turns you on or turns you off? Do you know for yourself? It can be tough to figure out what’s in our erotic template, especially when life stress gets in the way of accessing our emotions and sexual self.
