In this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD, addresses the challenges couples face when rekindling intimacy after a prolonged sexual hiatus. She offers practical advice for reconnecting emotionally, and physically, whether postpartum or during other life circumstances that disrupt a couple’s sex life. Dr. Alexandra addresses medical conditions, parenthood, emotional barriers, and other reasons there might be prolonged sexual inactivity, providing strategies to rebuild both physical and emotional intimacy. She emphasizes the importance of authenticity, open communication, and embracing vulnerability in restoring healthy intimacy. Key strategies include approaching reconnection like a "first date" to ease awkwardness, communicating concerns without blame, and adopting a slow, mindful approach to touch, which she refers to as "sensual meditation." These insights are designed to help couples navigate the complexities of reigniting passion and intimacy after an unintended break.
