In this episode of the Luke Adler Healing Podcast, Luke sits down with teaching partner Jason Lange to explore how shadow work can transform men’s sexuality, intimacy, and relationships. Together, they unpack how cultural and religious conditioning breeds shame around sex, quietly shaping how men relate to their bodies, desires, and partners.
Luke and Jason dive into “the shadow” – the unseen emotional and psychological forces that drive behavior – and show how bringing these hidden parts into awareness can restore sexual vitality and confidence. Through deep introspection, men can move from performance and pressure to presence, pleasure, and authentic connection.
The conversation also explores how meditation and spirituality, when combined with shadow work, help integrate the emotional and physical aspects of one’s being. Rather than using sex as a way to feel “good enough” or to escape difficult feelings, this integrated approach frees sexuality from shame and burden, opening the door to more grounded, intimate, and nourishing experiences.
