Your Body Remembers Pleasure — with Rahi Chun

What if your body already knows the way back to pleasure, intimacy, and wholeness?  Your Body Remembers Pleasure is a podcast devoted to sexual embodiment, relational intimacy, and the body’s innate intelligence to heal, feel, and remember pleasure.  Through intimate conversations with leading somatic therapists, sexologists, sexological bodyworkers, and holistic practitioners from around the world, we explore what actually supports embodied sexual awakening — not in theory, but through lived, hands-on experience.  This is an invitation to listen beneath performance and technique…. to the organic wisdom of your body,
the truth carried in sensation, and the quiet intelligence of your erotic life force.

What if arousal and pleasure weren’t “inappropriate”… but powerful markers of health? In this richly embodied conversation, Rahi Chun sits down with Dr. Saida Desilets — pioneering teacher of sacred sexuality and creator of the Embodied Psychosexual Method — to explore sexual sovereignty, erotic innocence, and the body’s capacity to heal through pleasure, breath, and deep attunement. Saida shares the astonishing origins of her life’s work: from a childhood rooted in natural sensual connection...
What if your sexuality was never broken — only buried? In this expansive conversation, somatic sexuality coach Victor Warring explores the process of “rewilding eros” — reconnecting with the innate erotic intelligence we’re all born with before shame, culture, and conditioning taught us to disconnect. Drawing from his work in somatic psychology, grief work during the AIDS epidemic, and sexological bodywork, Victor shares why grief and pleasure are inseparable, how shame limits our erotic capa...
What if your deepest wounds could become the doorway to your greatest healing? In this powerful conversation, Rahi Chun sits with somatic sex educator, pelvic care provider, and birth worker Katie Spataro to explore how the body itself can initiate us into sacred work through grief, birth, trauma, and pleasure. Katie shares her extraordinary personal journey — from miscarriage and spontaneous ritual… to an unexpectedly orgasmic birth… to nearly a decade of supporting survivors of childhood se...
Why do so many people long for deeper pleasure and intimacy — yet feel blocked, disconnected, or unable to receive? In this grounded and illuminating conversation, somatic intimacy guide Darna Avila shares how trauma-informed somatics and consent practices create the foundation for true erotic liberation. Together, we explore how nervous system safety, regulation, and clear boundaries open the door to authentic desire, deeper connection, and more expansive pleasure. Darna introduces her four ...
In this episode, I’m joined by Ali Mazza, a sexologist and somatic therapist with 40+ years of experience, to explore a deceptively simple method that reveals what’s been shaping your intimacy from underneath your awareness. We begin with Family Constellations Therapy—a powerful group process that exposes hidden family dynamics—and then dive into Ali’s unique innovation: Personal Geometry. Using post-it notes, objects, and spatial mapping, Ali helps clients externalize their inner relational ...
Dr. Charlie Glickman has been in the sex education field for over 35 years—and he’s one of the most grounded, compassionate educators I know. In this episode, we explore embodied anal play: how to approach anal pleasure in a way that’s safe, consent-based, trauma-informed, and genuinely enjoyable—with the goal Charlie names best: everyone ends with a smile. We talk about why the myth that “anal sex has to hurt” persists, what porn leaves out (warm-up, lubrication, pacing), and how breath and ...
Sexual energy isn’t just about sex — it’s your life force. In this episode, I’m joined by Leah Piper and Dr. Willow Brown, the powerhouse duo behind Sex Reimagined, blending Tantra, Taoism, somatic healing, and sexual mastery practices to help individuals and couples reclaim pleasure, vitality, and intimacy. Together we explore how ancient wisdom traditions use sexual energy to heal trauma, strengthen relationships, build confidence, and awaken deeper states of aliveness. We talk about: Sacre...
What if lovemaking didn’t have to be rushed, goal-oriented, or focused on orgasm? What if sex could feel spacious, meditative, and deeply connecting? In this intimate conversation, somatic sex educators and partners Rahi Chun and Ariel Szabo explore the practice of extended lovemaking — a slow, presence-based approach to intimacy that prioritizes connection, nervous system safety, and full-body pleasure over performance or climax. Together, they share: the difference between goal-oriented sex...
What if healing your sexuality wasn’t about “fixing” yourself — but about entering brave, embodied spaces where your life-force energy finally has permission to move? In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by Court Vox — certified sex and intimacy coach, sacred intimate, and founder of The Body Vox — known for his deeply immersive, somatic retreats and one-on-one erotic empowerment experiences around the world. Court challenges the idea of “safe spaces” and instead invites us into brave sp...
After years of interviewing fellow practitioners in the field of somatic sexuality, this episode turns the lens inward. I’m joined by my dear friend and colleague Caffyn Jesse, who interviews me about the roots, philosophy, and lived experiences that shaped my approach to genital de-armoring, somatic sexual healing, and trauma-informed intimacy work. Together, we explore how early attachment wounds, developmental trauma, cultural conditioning, and nervous system dysregulation create “armor” i...
This episode is a special replay of a live masterclass with Dr. Jennifer Lang — board-certified gynecologic oncologist, obstetrician, and integrative gynecologist — where we bridge two worlds that rarely speak to each other: Western medicine and Somatic Sexual Healing. Together, we explore three deceptively simple questions that can radically transform your relationship with your body: What is genital health? What is genital pleasure? What is genital wholeness? From my perspective as a somati...
Three years ago, my first conversation with Stine and Asim about prostate massage became the most downloaded episode of the entire podcast. Clearly, there’s a deep curiosity — and a quiet hunger — around prostate health, healing, and pleasure. So this is Part Two. In this episode, the founders of The Prostate Portal return to guide us through what many people have been asking for: What actually happens in a first prostate massage? How do you prepare the body? And how do you approach it safely...
What makes a sexuality space truly safe? Not just “clothing optional.” Not just “tantric.” Not just “trauma-informed.” But actually safe — in the nervous system. In this deeply honest and necessary conversation, I’m joined by Amina Peterson, somatic healer, sexologist, founder of the Atlanta Institute of Tantra, and a powerful voice for Black women’s pleasure, embodiment, and liberation. Together, we explore a question that many sacred sexuality communities avoid: How can we talk about consen...
What if pleasure wasn’t reserved for “perfect” bodies? What if pleasure was medicine? In this deeply compassionate conversation, I’m joined by Emily Royce — certified somatic sex educator, sexological bodyworker, chronic pain specialist, and former president of the Association of Certified Sexological Bodyworkers — to explore sexuality, intimacy, and embodiment for people living with chronic pain, disability, illness, and differently abled bodies. Because so many of us have been taught: “I’m ...
Every human body goes through puberty. And every human body will also move through menopause or andropause. Yet somehow… we’re taught almost nothing about what happens next. Brain fog. Low libido. Poor sleep. Weight gain. Vaginal dryness. Erectile changes. Mood shifts. Most people assume: “This is just aging.” But what if it’s simply hormones out of balance — and completely treatable? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Guy Riekeman, naturopathic physician and specialist in hormonal health, gu...
What if nothing about you is broken or “too much”? What if you already belong — exactly as you are? In this expansive and deeply human conversation, Rahi Chun sits with author, mentor, and founder of the Institute for Erotic Intelligence, Christiane Pelmas, to explore rewilding, belonging, and the untamed nature of our erotic embodiment. Together they question one of the most invisible forces shaping our lives: the pressure to fit in. From childhood conditioning to sexual norms to professiona...
What if touch could change your consciousness? What if sexual arousal wasn’t something to rush through… but a doorway into clarity, creativity, and deep embodiment? In this landmark conversation, Rahi Chun sits down with Joseph Kramer — founder of the Body Electric School and architect of the profession of Sexological Bodywork — whose teachings have trained thousands of somatic sex educators and erotic healers around the world. Often called the grandfather of modern somatic sexuality, Joseph ...
Many of us were never taught that our sexuality could be sacred. Instead, we inherited shame. Secrecy. Silence. And for many — especially queer bodies — that shame lives deep in the nervous system, shaping how safe we feel in our own skin. So what happens when we enter a space where our bodies are honored… our pleasure is welcomed… and our erotic energy is treated as holy? In this heartfelt conversation, I’m joined by Craig Cullinane — longtime faculty member and former director of The Body E...
How do you come home to your body after trauma? After childhood abuse… after sexual violation… after years of numbness, shutdown, or feeling like your body wasn’t even yours? And once you do begin healing — how do you rebuild intimacy with a partner when old patterns have been running for decades? In this deeply moving conversation, I’m joined by Dr. Laura Jergens, certified Somatica practitioner, intimacy coach, and survivor of childhood abuse and sexual trauma, who shares her courageous jou...
What happens when a lifelong teacher of intimacy finally steps off the pedestal — and into freedom? In this return conversation, I welcome Caffyn Jesse back to the podcast two years after retiring from the Institute for the Study of Somatic Sex Education, the pioneering training program they co-founded. Instead of slowing down, Caffyn’s life force has only expanded. With fewer roles, fewer responsibilities, and more spacious mornings, their work has distilled into something even more potent: ...
