註釋What exactly is sexuality and how does it impact our lives? In her enthralling new book, The Intimacy Solution, Dr. Erika Schwartz presents an in-depth look how our individual, sexual identities are shaped, and how the "norm" differs vastly from what social stereotypes and the media would have us believe. In fact, as Dr. Schwartz confirms without a doubt, there is no norm!The Intimacy Solution walks us through the "seasons" of our continual, sexual development, helping the reader to view sexuality through the lens of biology, learned behaviors, and culture in order to gain personal acceptance and improve intimacy, creating a balanced and satisfying life.Moving beyond Masters and Johnson's clinical approach to sexuality, Dr. Schwartz takes a broad leap forward to explain how a myriad number of factors such the body's delicate hormonal balance, life experiences and traumas, and societal expectations come together to impact our personal belief systems -- often negatively.In The Intimacy Solution, Dr. Schwartz uncovers some of the mystery behind the driving force that is sexuality, as she reveals:* The evolving nature of sexuality and its impact on each stage of life* How pairing sexuality with intimacy enhances emotional health and overall happiness* The direct and indelible interaction between hormones and sexual and emotional behavior* How to overcome the isolation and shame associated with sexual issues, emphasizing that such problems are neither unusual nor insurmountable* The many myths associated with sexuality and how they embed themselves in our beliefs, and much more. . . Sexuality is one of the most complicated and least understood aspects of our lives. Drawing on the personal experiences of thousands of patients as well as medical expertise, research, and insightful observation, Dr. Schwartz enables us to break down the barriers that may be keeping us from our individual identity, as well as the intimacy and passionate abandon associated with the profoundly driving force of human sexuality.
