Ep 26: Trusting the Erotic
How can we live more richly fulfilling lives by combining the wisdom of Buddhist meditation AND the messy, raw electricity of desire? How do we unhook from the object of desire and experience Eros in its purest form? In this episode, I interview Justine Dawson, a 23 year practitioner of Buddhist meditation who studied with Jack Kornfield and a 12-year practitioner of the erotic and desire who studied with Nicole Daedone. Justine has deep & profound insights about how we can live awake and erotically alive.

A 23 year practitioner of Insight Meditation, she completed training as a teacher under Jack Kornfield in 2012.
In addition to her training and practice in traditional meditation and Buddhist psychology, Justine has devoted over 12 years to engaged practice and teaching in the realms of intimacy and the erotic - sex, desire and connection.
Mentored for a decade by Nicole Daedone, she is one of the most senior teachers of Orgasmic Meditation worldwide.
From the inside out Justine works with people to dismantle the shame, fear and judgment that prevents them from intimacy with all aspects of life. Both practical and provocative, she is a translator between worlds.
