🔒 IFS & Mindful Bedroom Coach Justine Dawson: Desire, Intimacy & Pleasure during CIRS Recovery

The Heart of CIRS Podcast Exclusive Content showcases leaders, visionaries and wellness professionals outside the CIRS community who hold skills and information which may be of benefit for CIRS folks and their recovery.
This first exclusive conversation is with my colleague and past Internal Family Systems guide, Justine Dawson. She is an amazing woman and coach interested in desire, intimacy and connection with a strong dharma meditation background. I wanted to do an episode touching into how CIRS folks can lean into pleasure and desire again as they begin to heal as these areas of life certainly get put on the back burner for awhile. How can we improve intimacy and our relationships, romantic and non, with CIRS? I hope you’ll enjoy this topic and conversation.
Justine is an IFS (Internal Family Systems) mentor and Mindful Bedroom Coach. You can read about her here: https://www.justinedawson.com/justine.
