Mireia Grossmann recommends books "for one-handed reading."

Pelvic floor physiotherapist Mireia Grossmann claims that one of her therapeutic goals is to "scream blood." It turns out that blood flow is vital for maintaining healthy and revitalizing tissues, including those in the groin. In fact, blood flow is key to becoming aroused and having an orgasm. Grossmann recommends having "therapeutic orgasms" to exercise the muscles. So, a very effective way to activate libido and help desire "scream blood" is erotic reading. We could also call it therapeutic reading. She recommends the Raig Verd collection. Sex Outside the Norm, books in Catalan that include erotic stories resulting from literary competitions and that take into account divergent sexualities, unlike erotic classics. "Books that move blood awaken dormant areas through the imagination, which is better than cinema. They are books that can be read with one hand," she says.

The expert advises keeping erotic books on your nightstand year-round, but especially in the summer. "It's when the body is relaxed and it's easier to connect with the world of pleasure. If you're not used to reading it, it's time to start," she says. Grossmann dedicates herself to outreach through Instagram and in-person workshops, where she insists that women shake off taboos; for example, to look at their genitals in a mirror and to not be ashamed or lazy about working for their pleasure. "When winter comes, these books can be read as homework: to remind themselves that there is life in this area, because often with the madness of work and our lives, we let it sleep," she explains. An infallible classic title that Grossmann considers an "absolute recommendation" is Marc's notebooks (La Magrana), an anonymous work that has been attributed to Manuel de Pedrolo.
