@sonya_maya: As I’ve spent more time working in smeggsual health & psychology, I’ve become more immune to the negative comments that often stigmatize these topics Many of our beliefs are shaped by our upbringing, culture, education and personal experiences. When someone reacts strongly to a smeggs-positive message, that reaction often tells me more about their relationship with themselves & the topic than it does about the content itself The research is clear: healthy, shame-free conversations are associated with better communication, healthier relationships, increased consent awareness, and improved overall well-being So these days, instead of feeling bothered by every critical comment, I mostly see it as a reminder of why this work matters. Why it’s important! I invite you to challenge such beliefs that aren’t serving you/ potentially causing harm & with each post my intention is to make the world a better place by encouraging shame-free connection. Lemme know your thoughts below if ya feel like it #psychologyfacts #shamefree #drsonyamaya #healthyrelationships #sexeducationfacts
