Sex can be so many things, and what it means to enjoy sex is unique to each individual. What I love about this book is that is doesn’t offer one-size-fits-all advice but instead it offers advice on how to find out how YOU enjoy sex for yourself…if you do at all. Asexual and aromantic people aren’t left out of this advice, either. Their experiences are valid, too.

Recommended by Brenda Knight from Mango Publishing. Find out more about the book Sex After Grief: Navigating Your Sexuality After Losing Your Beloved by Joan Price by reading the description below.

Sex is complicated at the best of times – but when we’re overcome by grief, it’s especially mysterious and confusing. Sex after Grief is the first book to address sex and grief together and treat sex as a normal, positive, life-affirming part of emerging from such a difficult time. Joan Price, the top expert on senior sex, draws on her own experiences as a widow since 2008, when she lost the love of her life to cancer. She shares her raw grief journey, sexual reawakening (and the many stumbles along the way), and attempts to dip back into dating, along with excellent advice on handling each step.

As Price says, there’s no right or wrong method or timeline for bringing our sexuality back into our lives, whether it’s with our own hands, a friend with benefits, a hook-up, a new companion, or any combination. Her book will help you with inspiring tales of how different people brought sex back into their lives after the loss of their spouse or partner; guidelines for dating again and getting sexual with a new person; reasons that solo sex is healthy and can be the path to feeling sexual again; advice from therapists, grief counselors, and sex coaches; self-help takeaways for creating an action plan; and more.
