EP11: The Organizing/Orgasm Connection

You’ll want to get the kids out of the room for this one! Today’s episode of the Get Organized for Good podcast, host Corinne Morahan is exploring the connection between organization and orgasms. The stress that clutter causes us, and the resentment that builds toward a partner who doesn’t do their share of household responsibilities has a major effect on libido, Corinne explains. Citing research from renowned sex and relationship experts, she emphasizes how much an environment free from visual clutter positively impacts a couple’s intimate life.

As always, Corinne reminds us that shame has no place in this process. Nor does it do us any good to compare our lives to anyone else’s. Everyone’s different, with their own schedules and motivations. An improved sex life is simply another aspect of the expansive joy we invite into our lives when we clear our space of clutter and mess.

Join today’s episode to hear Corinne share her personalized playlist and her favorite recommendations for the bedroom.

Quotes

“I, of course, know this to be true. I have seen it in my own life, and case studies of countless of my members: the more relaxed we are, and the less we have any feelings of resentment, the more connected we feel to our partners, and the more we are simply in the mood.” (1:37 | Corinne Morahan)
“Messy homes can lead to feelings of depression and low self-esteem which in and of itself is a libido killer—this is what the research tells us—especially in those areas of our house where we spend the most time with our partners, like our bedrooms but also our living areas.” (4:54 | Corinne Morahan)
“We all have different libidos, we all have different desires for sex, we all have different schedules. There are so many things that factor into it. What this conversation is really about is maximizing pleasure for you at the top of your desire threshold.” (6:22 | Corinne Morahan)
“There can be a lot of factors that impact our sex drive: our health, and the factors that I’ve listed above. But two of the big ones that impact our sex lives, and our sexual desires, and our ability to reach climax are our stress levels and our connection to our partner. And being organized has a massively positive impact on both.” (7:48 | Corinne Morahan)
