We’ve long understood the importance of maintaining our physical wellbeing by eating well and exercising regularly. And more recently we’ve come to understand the benefit of taking care of our mental wellbeing, too, with many of us trying meditation or practising mindfulness. But there’s another facet of our lives we’ve been neglecting that’s just as important: sex. WHAT EXACTLY IS SEXUAL WELLNESS? Melbourne-based sexologist Chantelle Otten (@chantelle_otten_sexologist) describes sexual wellness as something that’s all encompassing. “It’s how you feel within your sexual self, how you’re able to develop on your sexual self-esteem, how interested you are in your sexual life and how motivated you are towards your sexuality,” she says. The mental, physical and emotional connection to sex looks different for everyone, and is entirely personal. But when you experience…

By anyone’s standards, it was a crazy time.“It was all a bit mad really,”the 36-year-old tells WHO. “It’s been the busiest couple of years of my life.” However, Rag’n’Bone Man went with the flow when fame arrived.“I didn’t get much time to think about [fame] initially,”he adds.“But in hindsight, it made me realise that while I can deal with pressure, I really missed home a lot!” As he approached his second album, Life by…
