Main finding

After the programme, participants reported improvements in sexual arousal, desire and satisfaction.

What was done

A small group of women with arousal difficulties took part in a short group programme combining information about sexuality with mindfulness exercises – attending to body sensations without judging them.

What the study does not show

A small study without a control group, with women who had a diagnosed arousal disorder. It tested mindfulness, not hypnosis, and says nothing about a single audio trance.
