    Sexuality can be influenced by many things

    •Sexual self-concept refers to the totality of


    oneself as a sexual being, including positive
    and negative concepts and feelings.
    According to theorists, sexual self-concept
    is described well along three
    dimensions sexual self-
    esteem, sexual depression,
    and sexual preoccupation.
    • What’s Different Now?

    •Typically, people don’t think about how they


    developed their sense of sexuality, it just
    happens through your lived experience.
    Most people don’t realize the importance of
    the different components that shape your
    own identity until a major life event
    happens
    FUN FACT
    • “Sex is what we do and sexuality is who we are”
    • What Can I Do?
    • Finding things that give you control of your life and
    give you a sense of accomplishment, purpose,
    responsibility, and routine can help boost your
    confidence and motivation. This means finding a
    reason to get up and get out into the world every
    day. This can include a hobby, a job, a volunteer role,
    schooling, an exercise program, social activities,
    whatever you want!
    •Once you are a little more confident, you
    will naturally become more curious about
    what’s possible and may become more
    open to trying different things. Positive
    experiences can help build your confidence
    further. Exploring your sexuality is a step by
    step
    •The path everyone takes will look
    different and everyone will build
    their confidence in their own way.
    Finding the resources that are
    available to you in your area and
    how to access them is an important
    place to begin.

    • My Role
    • The process of regaining your sexual self-view, self-
    confidence, and boosting your self-esteem can seem very
    overwhelming at the beginning. These feelings are
    common especially soon after injury. To gain a better
    understanding of yourself and get back in touch with
    yourself takes time, a sense of openness, and support
    from peers, family, friends and health care professionals.
    But ultimately, no one can do this for you — it’s up to you
    to start the process.
    PHYSICAL SELF
    • Physical Self refers to the body, this marvelous
    container and complex, finely tuned, machine with
    which we interface with our environment and fellow
    beings. The Physical Self is the concrete dimension,
    the tangible aspect of the person that can be directly
    observed and examined.
    • "Man is a transitional being? This body is a bridge."
    •Physical Self refers to the body, this

    The Physical Self is the concrete
    dimension, the tangible aspect of the
    person that can be directly observed and
    examined.
    , however, this important aspect of our Self seems to have
    lost somewhere between the Eastern detachment and
    Western narcissism, so much so that sufficient theoretical
    development on this issue is lacking. However, directly or
    indirectly, the discussion on Physical Self has found a place
    in various schools ofScientifically psychology like
    psychoanalysis, behaviorism, humanism etc. with some of
    its most ardent exponents and followers dealing with the
    issue in varying proportions.
    •physical body and the external world can be
    known only as psychological experiences: I'm
    chiefly concerned with the psyche itself,
    therefore I'm leaving out body and spirit. The
    body and spirit are to me mere aspects of the
    reality of the psyche. Psychic experience
    is the only immediate experience. Body is as
    metaphysical as the spirit.
    • Physical Self: The Sun in Darkness

    The body that was to be a lamp to self,


    One day worms will have
    • a horrid feast of It.

    Here is the common glory of all human flesh,


    That the good and bad, high and low, all must
    die.
