 February 13, 2012 /EIN Presswire/ -- "Your most important sex organ is not between your legs--it's between your ears," says Dr. Rich Blonna, a professor, coach, and author of books on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
Blonna's latest book is the first to connect sexuality and ACT. He points out that sexual insecurity causes Americans to spend billions of dollars a year on performance enhancing drugs, cosmetics, clothing, hygiene, and fitness. We strive to meet unattainable sexual standards set by the popular media, and when that fails we turn to counseling, sex therapy, psychoanalysis, and self-help books.
"Yet," Dr. Blonna adds, "average, healthy men and women don't need to spend money on sexual products or the industries that spawn them. Everything they need to enjoy sex and have a satisfying and stimulating sexual life exists within them. They only need to learn how to unleash the power of their sexual minds."
A values-based form of therapy that emphasizes mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) principles and practices are now used for many issues, ranging from stress to eating disorders - and they're a perfect fit for sexual concerns. For people who already have satisfying and meaningful sex lives, ACT can help fine-tune their sexual thinking and increase satisfaction to even higher levels. These concepts apply to same-sex partners, single adults, and traditional relationships.
