Let's Get It On

Icon_tip_1

Congratulations on taking first the first step to improving your sex life! This is a thrilling adventure that will ultimately end in fun and satisfaction. What life change could be better than that? You might feel like diving into the good stuff immediately, but remember that you first need to lay the sexual groundwork in order to make a lasting change.

Over the next 30 days, you can expect to:

  • Pinpoint your sexual needs, as well as those of your partner.
  • Experiment with what works for you in the bedroom.
  • Look and feel sexier.
  • Create a deeper physical bond with yourself and your partner.


Now’s the time to get in touch with your deepest thoughts and feelings on the subject of sex. Take some time to relax and think about your goals, your plans and your desires. Get a journal, but don’t call it a journal. Think of it as your “sex diary,” where you can be completely honest with yourself and track your sexy ideas and emotions during this time of growth. After the 30 days are over, you can review your progress and alter your goals as needed.

DID YOU KNOW? Recent studies from Dartmouth and the University of Warwick show that sex is the major factor in personal happiness. According to the study, “…increasing intercourse from once a month to once a week is equivalent to the amount of happiness generated by getting an additional $50,000 in income for the average American.”

i total y agree with the study"increasing sex by once in a week" this really makes me happy. i feel like my husband resents when he does not touch me. he can say all the jokes in the world, buy me a gift, it would not make me as happy as he does when he makes love to me.
