Sexual wellness is an important aspect of one's life, as important as the importance of a good sleep. In my clinical experience, human body has its own biological rhythms, rhythms for desire (sex),sleep and appetite. These three rhythms are important for a healthy life. that makes "sexual wellness" as important as a good amount of undisturbed sleep.

Dr. Aditya Mahindru

Psychiatrist

In a nation where traditions and taboos intertwine, the pursuit of mental and sexual health becomes a revolutionary act of self-empowerment. Unveiling the stigma that shrouds these essential aspects of well-being is not merely a personal journey; it's a collective renaissance, a bold declaration that the richness of our individual experiences is as diverse as the colors of India's cultural tapestry. In the therapeutic embrace, we navigate the uncharted territories of the mind and body, challenging societal norms that have long confined these conversations to the shadows. By fostering open dialogues on mental and sexual health, we illuminate the path to personal liberation, transforming the hushed whispers into a resonant chorus that echoes the strength and resilience of a nation unshackling itself from the chains of silence.

"Sexual health or medicine is not recognised as a structured field of intervention. Thus a lot of myth ans stigma exist around the same. It's often believed to be a dead end when someone has sexual health problems as the awareness to available tretaments is very less. Thus psychotherapy in the field of sexual medicine and intervention becomes a powerful tool to educate and treat sexual concerns, as well as promote healthier sexual funtioning. "

Sexual health and healthy relationships go hand in hand, as they both require open communication, trust, and mutual respect. Prioritizing sexual health within a relationship means fostering an environment where individuals feel safe to express their desires, concerns, and boundaries. It involves embracing consent, practicing safe sex, and seeking knowledge to enhance pleasure and intimacy. By nurturing both sexual health and relationships, we create a foundation for love, connection, and lifelong fulfilment.
