Welcome back to The Sexbod Series, episode 3 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 3: Genital MappingIn this third episode, Simon and Simon dive into the fascinating and transformative practice of Genital Mapping. This may be a term you haven’t encountered before, but get ready to expand your understanding of the body beyond anything you may have learned in school. Genital Mapping, a practice within Sexological Bodywork, allows individuals to become more attuned to their bodies—particularly the genital area.
More than simply identifying body parts, Genital Mapping is about reconnecting with the body in a profound way, fostering an open and healthy relationship with the areas we often refer to vaguely as “down there.”
The hosts share how mapping helps to release shame, increase awareness, and support healing through a deeper, more intimate understanding of the body. If you’re ready to break free from limiting ideas about your body and discover new pathways to self-love and openness, this episode is for you.
Each episode in this mini-series delves into different aspects of Sexological Bodywork, a holistic approach to sexuality that fosters a deep connection between body, mind, and spirit. Whether you're new to this concept or looking to deepen your knowledge, this series offers insightful perspectives and practical wisdom from both co-hosts as they share their personal journeys and professional expertise in this unique field.
Stay tuned as Simon and Simon continue to explore various dimensions of Sexological Bodywork in upcoming episodes, offering fresh insights and deeper dives into each topic. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or simply curious about body-based self-love, this mini-series is here to inspire, educate, and transform your relationship with your body and self.
* 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.
