Aprašymas

This book is not a one-size-fits-all rulebook for sex: it’s for you, whether you’re single or partnered, queer or straight, or whether you’re navigating monogamous, poly, kinky, or queerplatonic connections.

An Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) approach to nurturing a more intentional, true-to-you sex life that aligns with your unique wants, needs, desires, and values.

Written for readers who want to live fuller, more satisfying, and authentic intimate lives, Values-Aligned Sexuality helps you understand yourself and your desires better—and moves you toward actualizing what you really want.

Using ACT principles, Dr. Rebbeca Lahann offers a path to bridging the “authenticity gap”—the disconnect between our sexual behaviors and our values—while embracing your desires, identities, and relationships with openness and clarity.

Through practical exercises and evidence-based strategies, you’ll learn how to:

• Identify your sexual values with ACT tools like the Values Alignment Bulls-Eye and the Sexual Values Matrix
• Understand cultural scripts and inherited narratives that shape intimacy
• Manage difficult emotions like shame, anxiety, fear, and more
• Enhance presence and connection with mindfulness exercises and partnered practices
• Detach from unhelpful thought patterns with the author’s LLAMA—Label, Let Go, Allow, Mindfulness, and Approach—method
• Move toward committed action that aligns with your authentic sexual values
