Hoda said your sexuality and what happens downstairs is connected to your mind. Naomi said she is interpreting the data that way. She said there is this amazing documentation that neuroscientists have established that there is a strong brain-vagina connection, such that when a women is empowered to know about her desire and know what makes her happy and think about it, that lady gets some really great neurochemicals and hormones affecting her mood. She gets dopamine, which goes to risk-taking, confidence and focus. She gets oxytocin, which is about bonding and connection and she gets opioids, which is about joy. She said that she has interviewed a lot of women that have seen the signs and realized that is why.

Naomi said the findings in this book come from readers that are also celibate, lesbian, long married and the insights in this book are for everyone. She said you don’t have to be having it with another person to be able to use this information to protect your own health and well being.
