From sex expert Barbara Carrellas comes an exploratory journey into the sexual self and the infinite possibilities of ecstatic expression. This book guides readers in discovering, nurturing, and embracing their authentic, evolving sensual and sexual selves. Acknowledging the various phases of sexual expression and desire, it emphasizes the myriad of erotic and ecstatic possibilities available at every stage. Readers will delve into the concept of ecstasy and its essential role in their quest for authenticity. The insights gained will empower them to approach sex and relationships confidently, regardless of where they are in their sexual evolution. The book provides tools for navigating challenges, highlights the importance of risk-taking and boundaries, and even grants permission to abstain from sex if that feels right, as ecstatic experiences can exist beyond sexual activity. Through stories and simple exercises, Carrellas helps readers understand their sexual wiring, personal warning signs, and optimum care needs. Additionally, they will learn to communicate these insights effectively, fostering deeper connections. As they uncover their authentic sexual selves, readers will discover how to create conditions that transform their experiences and relationships into opportunities for ecstasy.

Mit Wärme, Klarheit und tiefem Mitgefühl definiert Carrellas das Wort Ekstase als eine zutiefst menschliche Erfahrung von Freude, Lebendigkeit und Verbundenheit – und nicht als etwas, das Mystikern oder perfekten Körpern vorbehalten bleibt. Ekstase ist etwas, das jedem zugänglich ist, der bereit ist, auf seine eigene, innere Weisheit zu hören. Ergänzend zu neuen Themen, Grenzen, Einwilligung und Neurodiversität enthält “Ekstase” zudem ein wichtiges Kapitel darüber, was geschieht, wenn Ekstase unmöglich erscheint oder zu überwältigend ist, um damit umzugehen, z.B. ausgelöst durch Traumata oder Krankheit. Sie benennt und normalisiert kraftvolle energetische und emotionale Zustände, die oft missverstanden werden. Dank einer klaren spirituellen Ausrichtung und jahrzehntelange Erfahrung bietet dieses Buch einen äußerst inklusiven und radikal bejahenden Weg zur Ekstase – für jeden Körper, in jeder Lebensphase.
