Short conversational YouTube video by therapist Vanessa Marin (with her husband Xander) advocating for a dedicated sex playlist. They argue music helps set mood, increase present-moment attention, boost confidence, and reduce awkward silence by creating ambiance and privacy. Practical advice: make a private Spotify playlist and add songs as you find them (they link an example playlist in the caption). The clip ends by asking viewers to share one song they would add.
You need a S playlist.
You do.
Hey there. I'm Vanessa Marin. I'm a therapist with over 20 years experience.
And I'm Xander, her regular dude husband.
First, a s x playlist is just plain S. I think about how listening to music can make you happy or it can make you sad. Like, music is just powerful. It's a really great way to help you get in the mood and to pay more attention to your experience in the moment itself.
Plus, it can also help boost your confidence. I know you probably have that one song that makes you lift harder or run faster. You can just jump around the house.
Also, having in dead silence is just awkward. Music creates ambiance and it gives you a little bit of privacy too.
To get yours going, create a private playlist in Spotify and then just start adding songs as you find them.
If you need some inspo, we have a whole Spotify playlist linked for you in the caption. Okay, now tell us what is one song that would definitely make it onto your playlist?
