FREE Accelerator and Brakes Relationship Desire Checklist

Unlock the Secrets of Your Sexual Desire with Our Accelerators and Brakes Checklist Worksheet

Discover the intricacies of your sexual desire with this insightful worksheet based on the groundbreaking work of Emily Nagoski, author of the acclaimed book "Come As You Are." Emily's research explains how our sexual desire operates with two systems in the brain: the sexual excitation system (SES) and the sexual inhibition system (SIS).

Understanding Accelerators and Brakes:

• Sexual Excitation System (SES): Think of this as the accelerator pedal in a car. It's activated by things that increase your desire and arousal, known as "Accelerators."
• Sexual Inhibition System (SIS): This works like the brake pedal, triggered by factors that decrease your desire or make you hesitant about sex, known as "Brakes."

Everyone's Accelerators and Brakes are unique, shaped by personal experiences, beliefs, and preferences. Our worksheet helps you identify and understand these elements to enhance intimacy and desire in your relationship.
