What the research says

Lori Brotto's and Esther Perel's work informs the modern approach: most low desire in long-term partnerships is responsive (not spontaneous) and improves with intentional practice.

How tantra approaches this

Tantra rebuilds the felt-sense of the body and the relational structure that lets desire emerge. Combined with hormonal evaluation where indicated.
