Welcome back to The Sexbod Series, episode 4 of the special 8-part mini-series where I’m joined by my good friend and fellow Sexological Bodyworker, Simon Heller. Simon, who now teaches this transformative practice, brings his deep expertise as we explore the intersection of self-love, sexuality, and the body through the lens of Sexological Bodywork. This series is designed to share knowledge, educate, and shed light on this powerful modality—helping listeners understand what it’s truly capable of and how it can transform their relationship with themselves and their bodies.
Episode 4: Why Sexological Bodywork Matters
In this dynamic and heartfelt fourth episode, Simon and I are joined by friends Lennard, Hannah, and Kate, each of whom brings a passion for self-love and the journey of reconnecting with the body through Sexological Bodywork. Together, the five of us engage in an open, free-flowing discussion about how this practice has influenced our lives and why we feel it’s essential to share it with the world.
Through personal stories and thoughtful reflections, we explore how Sexological Bodywork can create profound shifts in emotional and physical healing and why it’s so vital for helping others reclaim a conscious, empowered relationship with their bodies. The group also discusses the broader impact of this work on society, highlighting how spreading awareness can foster more open, empowered, and loving communities.
Tune in to this inspiring conversation and discover how Sexological Bodywork can create lasting change, not only for individuals but for the collective. If you're curious about the movement toward body-based healing and self-love, Episode 4 is a must-listen!
* Foundations of Sexological Bodywork summarised:
The foundations of Sexological Bodywork are centered on sexual healing, education, mindful self loving, and body awareness through client-led, therapeutic touch. This modality integrates breathwork, movement, sound, and guided touch to help individuals connect with their bodies and sexuality in a safe, consent-based environment. Sessions focus on areas such as exploring pleasure, releasing trauma, and addressing sexual dysfunction, while incorporating sex education and the anatomy of pleasure. Practitioners remain clothed, and all touch is one-way, creating a professional and respectful space for healing and growth. Each session is shaped by the client's needs and goals, ensuring a personalized experience that supports sexual well-being.
- Client-Led and Therapeutic: Sexological Bodywork is driven by the client's needs, focusing on sexual healing, body awareness, and resolving trauma in a safe, structured environment.
One-Way Touch, Clear Boundaries: All touch is one-way, with the practitioner fully clothed, ensuring a professional, respectful space for growth.
Educational Focus: It incorporates sexual education and the anatomy of pleasure, helping clients explore communication, boundaries, and consent.
Distinct from Tantra Massage: While Tantra massage focusing on sexual energy and spirituality, sexological bodywork works with sexual energy and focuses on clients needs, education, healing, and a trauma-informed approach.
