Esther Perel – Rekindling Desire

Description Of Rekindling Desire

Rekindling Desire is my premiere online resource for couples and individuals. This workshop will help you to rekindle intimacy, curiosity, and sensuality in your relationship — whichever stage of life you’re in.

You want a relationship in which you feel alive, vibrant, and inspired.

One that doesn’t get stalled in the everyday, but that allows you to feel excitement and confidence; a relationship that you and your partner can craft into a lifelong journey of intimacy and desire.

So many people come into my office feeling stuck and in need of inspiration. Some experience differences in desire or turn-ons that are hard to communicate. Others struggle with feelings of shame around their sexuality. Most people don’t know where to start.

Rekindling Desire can help you experience the excitement and connection you want.

My course will help you deal with feelings of self-consciousness, the fear of rejection, and complacency. You will confront your sexual desires and better understand your erotic self. My colleague Peggy Kleinplatz says “Great lovers are not born, they are made.” This course will give you the vocabulary and practices to explore your desires and become more open and intentional with your sexual needs.

What you’ll learn in Rekindling Desire

• Section 1: Understanding Eroticism
  In this introductory section, I define desire, talk about the difference between sexuality and eroticism, and identify key methods for understanding what makes a couple “erotic” and how you can connect to your erotic self.
• Section 2: Sexual Communication
  Here you will learn how to communicate preferences using the sexuality verbs, and the principles of generative communication.

  In this section, we learn how to step out of your familiar routines to elicit playfulness and spontaneity.
