All five cause erectile dysfunction. 19:40 – Step #1: Release Heavy Emotions. 21:40 – Men have an inner hard-on. Men’s sexual center connects with the heart – and when men have inner pain, it blocks their inner hard-on, which blocks their outer hard-on. 23:40 – Men stop having sex to emotionally distance themselves from women in relationships, too, sometimes pre-breakup. 25:30 – Shari talks about men who need to have an emotional connection in order to have sexual desire and a hard-on for a woman. 28:00 – We talk about how to understand and deal with emotional issues that cause ED. 30:40 – Case study with a client who was in an abusive relationship with a woman. 32:50 – Step #2: Increase Circulation. 35:20 – We talk about nitric oxide and how it works towards a healthy sexual function. 37:50 – Shari shares her case study of helping a man in his 60s whose circulation was compromised by diabetes, which caused ED. 39:50 – Step #3: Decrease Stress and Retrain the Nervous System. 42:10 – Most men operate full time in a sympathetic nervous system mode – which actually inhibits their erections. 45:00 – Men don’t carry over meditation mindsets into their daily life, which contributes to ED. 47:00 – Shari shares her case study of a stressed-out business owner, and how she helped him manage his stress to fix his erectile dysfunction. 48:40 – Common medical practice is to isolate ED, when actually it’s linked to a greater body system. 49:50 – Step #4: Harness Sexual Energy. 51:50 – Women get more energy from orgasms while men lose energy from ejaculations and feel tired. 53:50 – When men have morning wood, everything fixes, or has fixed, itself. 54:40 – Case study of a guy in his 40s in a great marriage who wasn’t getting aroused with his wife. 57:25 – Step #5: Porn-Induced Erectile Dysfunction.
