Reclaim Your Sexuality After LossSex is complicated after the death of a partner. Joan Price offers wisdom on grief, dating, and sex in the updated edition of Sex after Grief.
A warm, candid approach to hard challenges. When we’re overcome by grief, sex can be confusing. How do we nurture ourselves as sexual beings when we’re grieving our partner’s death? Why does caring for ourselves sexually matter when we’d rather hide in bed and wail? How do we know when it’s time to open ourselves to a new sex partner? How can we move on and take a second chance? With this revolutionary grief book, readers can gain clarity from Joan Price’s own experiences with love and death, and those of other grievers.
A grief book like no other. In 2019, Sex after Grief was the first book to address sex and grief together and treat sex as a positive, life-affirming part of emerging from grief. Joan Price, the top expert on senior sex, shared her raw grief journey after the loss of her husband, her attempts to dip back into dating, and finally her sexual reawakening. The book is filled with experiences of other widows, widowers, and others who lost their committed partners. In this updated, expanded 2024 edition, Price adds new chapters, stories from readers, and expert tips. Everyone’s experience with sex and grief is different. Some jump into a new relationship quickly while others withdraw from intimacy. Price debunks hurtful myths about sex and dating and helps you discover how to reclaim your sexuality in your own way, on your own timeline.
Sex After Grief includes:
Inspiring stories of how diverse people became sexually active with new lovers after the loss of their partners.
Sex-positive guidelines for dating again and becoming sexual with a new person
Advice from health professionals such as therapists, grief counselors, and sex coaches
