The Modern Guide to Sex
Welcome from Georgia Grace
Georgia shares her journey to becoming a certified sex coach and how she supports her clients in clinic. Next, she covers defining what sexual wellness mean for you and how to approach this course.
Mapping your (unique) body
Georgia covers the pleasure anatomy you missed in school, from the g-spot (which isn't actually a spot) to the clitoris, the prostate and the a-spot. Then, she explains how to start exploring and mapping your body's pleasure zones - and why you should spend time looking at your genitals.
Getting turned on
We're all thinking about foreplay wrong - and the science of arousal is a lot more complicated than we realise. Georgia takes you through how arousal is created, how to incorporate ‘outercourse’ into sex, and what to do if you're not feeling aroused in the way that you want to be.
All about orgasms
For some, orgasms are simple, while for others, they can be elusive - but there's a lot more to the topic than you might think. Georgia discusses what happens to the body during orgasm, how to experience the many different types of orgasm, how multiple orgasms work, faking orgasms and how an orgasm-centric mentality might actually make pleasure harder.
Exploring vaginal sex
We see a lot of (misleading) P-in-V sex in porn and pop culture, but there's so much more to great penetrative sex (and it doesn't just involve penises)! George explores just how to target the g-spot (hint: it's not a spot), squirting, the A-spot, and discusses pleasure-enhancing positions and techniques for partnered sex. This chapter will help you take it to the next level.
Exploring anal sex
Georgia explains why anal sex is about so much more than what we see in porn (like hard and fast penetration) and discusses hygiene and pre-sex preparation - as well as how to use toys for training and pleasure, external anal techniques, and penetrative anal techniques.
Exploring oral sex
Georgia explains how to feel confident around topics like hair and hygiene, as well as building arousal using the whole body, techniques to try for people with vulvas, techniques for people with penises, and how to incorporate toys for even better oral experiences.
Exploring V-on-V sex
Georgia busts some myths about V-on-V sex (hint: it's not all about scissoring), recommends techniques to try, and explores how to incorporate role tools like sex toys and strap-ons.
Exploring P-on-P sex
Georgia addresses misconceptions about P-on-P sex, and explains some of the best tools and toys you can bring into play. She explores pleasurable positions and techniques to try, and tackles the topic of performance anxiety.
Solo sex & pleasure
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced hand, there's something for everyone here. Georgia explains how to level up your masturbation, how to incorporate aids like sex toys, how to explore mutual masturbation, and how masturbation can be used to train for more pleasure or longevity in partnered sex.
Having good conversations
Creating space for people to express boundaries and feel safe is a critical foundation for good sex. In this chapter, Georgia looks into what consent means, how to build your sexual communication skills and talk about consent with a partner, and how we can all become better partners.
Having better relationships
In this chapter, Georgia touches on some of the most common issues she works with couples on: how to bring up trying new things, how desire actually works, and how to work on desire discrepancy to create fulfilling long-term partnerships.
Get confident
Georgia discusses the common blockers affecting sexual confidence, and explores techniques for rewiring unhelpful beliefs, communicating your needs and exploring what turns you on (and off).
Managing your mental health
Stress, mental health and sex are intimately connected. In this chapter, Georgia explores the relationship between your mental health and sexuality, as well as how to seek support in a way that works for you.
Exploring our influences
Attitudes and ideas from porn and pop culture can shape how we feel about ourselves and what we expect in sex a.k.a. our ‘sexual scripts’. Learn about how to unpack these messages, find inspiration in erotica, and engage in a healthy way with your cultural influences.
How to stay in the moment
Feeling distracted, anxious or unable to relax is really common. Georgia shares some powerful techniques, and leads a guided meditation to end the course.
Bonus: Managing pain during sex
Pain during sex can be confusing and distressing - and all too often, we don’t know where or how to seek help. Learn about the common causes, and how to find the right support to get back to normal.
Bonus: Caring for your health
Being safe and healthy is the foundation of exploring sexuality in a pleasurable way. Learn about the different types of health practitioners and how they can assist you, common conditions, practising good hygiene, preventing and managing STIs, and choosing the right contraception for you.
