Come Together: The Workbook
Description
Do you like the sex you have? What if you only ever had sex you enjoy--and didn't even feel bad about not having the kind you don't? What if, instead of trying to create "spark," you centered pleasure in your sexual connections?
In this official companion guide to Come Together, New York Times bestselling author Emily Nagoski and sex educator Robyn Manning-Samuels translate the science of lasting sexual connection into simple, rewarding tools you can actually use. With a dose of humor, candor, and zero judgment, they guide you through the building blocks of having sex that feels great--for everyone involved.
Inside, you'll find a variety of interactive exercises to help you and your partner(s):
- Discover what makes it easier (and harder) to get into a sexy state of mind
- Let go of restrictive ideas about what sex is "supposed" to look like
- Adapt to changing bodies, relationships, and desires
- Access the biggest, most profound ecstasy people can achieve
Talking about sex and relationships is not easy work, but it's possible (and worth it!) so you can have the pleasure and connection you desire.

Persons
Emily Nagoski, PhD, is the award-winning author of the New York Times bestsellers Come As You Are and Come Together, as well as The Come As You Are Workbook, and the coauthor, with her sister, Amelia, of the New York Times bestseller Burnout. She earned an MS in counseling and a PhD in health behavior, both from Indiana University, with clinical and research training at the Kinsey Institute. Now she combines sex education and stress education to teach women to live with confidence and joy inside their bodies. She lives in Massachusetts with two dogs and a cartoonist.
Robyn Manning-Samuels, MSPS, MCHES, is a health and sexuality educator, writer, and maybe someday a librarian. Robyn spent most of her career developing and implementing events on college campuses to help students learn and understand the nuances around their sexuality and general well-being. Now she hopes to bring those topics to the wider community, either through her writing or public librarianship. She's white presenting, genderqueer, queer, and married to a white cisgender man, which basically means that most of Robyn's identities are largely invisible and/or assumed. It's a privilege but also complicated, like most things in life are.
