Sexual intimacy can be a complex experience, especially for those with sensory sensitivities. This class, "How to Enjoy Sex With Sensory Issues," is designed to create a safe and supportive environment where participants can explore ways to enhance their sexual experiences. We will focus on understanding sensory triggers and how they can impact pleasure, while also introducing relaxation techniques that help ease discomfort and anxiety during intimate moments.

The class will guide you through various methods of relaxation, such as breathing exercises, mindfulness practices, and gentle touch, all tailored to accommodate sensory needs.
