The Dark Sides of Porn Consumption

Ever wondered how your late-night porn habits might be messing with your head and your love life? Well, buckle up in our latest Men Talking Mindfulness, we’re diving deep into the murky waters of porn addiction, intimacy, and relationships. We had the pleasure of chatting with men's mental health coach Elise Michaels and she dropped some serious knowledge bombs.

First off, did you know that excessive porn consumption can distort your relationships and create unrealistic expectations about sex? Yep, it’s true. Elise pointed out, “When a man is masturbating to porn, the idea is to just get that immediate gratification of coming. When you are with a partner, that's not something you want to happen.” So, if you’re finding it hard to connect with your partner, your porn habits are most likely getting in the way.
