To determine whether s*xual intimacy is a physiological or psychological requirement for the well-being of an individual or a relationship, I explore the research comparing outcomes of a s*xually active lifestyle with a life without s*xual intimacy.

The key difference between cold, disconnected, and tense relationships and those that are warm, peaceful and vibrant often lies in the degree of s*xual intimacy shared between partners.

S*xual Intimacy IS an emotional need and more than this; it’s a vital thread in the fabric of a healthy, vibrant relationship, woven together with trust, communication, and mutual generosity. By embracing it as such, we open the door to deeper intimacy, greater well-being, and a love that truly flourishes.

Today I'm joined by Dr Samantha White aka Dr. Psych Mom where we discuss emotional needs vs. s*xual needs, why couples who have regular s*x raise happy children, the lack of education about physical intimacy in marriage and why relationship counsellors aren’t addressing marital s*x as a priority in therapy.

By request, informal online coaching sessions are now available for booking via my website.

If you have a question or life situation which you would like to discuss with me then you can book a coaching session here. Coaching sessions are different to counselling sessions because there is no contract to sign, no forms to fill out, no formal structure and no client / counsellor dynamic.

It’s just you and I, human to human. So, if you just want to chat about something or run something by me for my opinion or advice then this is the best way to connect.

What if your husband or wife wants to have s*x every day but you could take it or leave it. How do you manage mismatched libidos to ensure that both of you are happy with the amount of s*xual intimacy in your marriage?

BOOK A SESSION ▶▶▶ https://laurahow.com/online-counselling/

Some people need to feel emotionally connected to want s*x, and others need s*x to feel emotionally connected.

We must therefore accept that both s*xual and emotional connection are equally valid needs, and we must develop our willingness to engage with our partners in whatever way that they need to feel connected.

The ultimate goal here, is for s*x to become as freely given and enjoyed as any other reasonable relationship need, which should of course also be abundantly provided and enjoyed. A marriage underpinned by this spirit of mutual generosity is a marriage that will become stronger and more fulfilling to both spouses over the course of their shared lives.

Why do so many women stop wanting s*x with their husbands after marriage or children? And what can you do, as a couple to rescue your s*x life? This in-depth guide is for men & women.

BOOK A SESSION ▶▶▶ https://laurahow.com/online-counselling/

If you want your marriage to thrive and to be filled with pleasure, contentment and satisfaction, then you simply cannot give up on s*x.

Choosing to have no or little to no s*x in marriage is like taking a wrecking ball to the whole enterprise. If my own story had not convinced me of that, then the countless couples I meet who aren’t having s*x certainly would have.

There is a solution. It doesn’t have to be this way. There are plenty of things both spouses can do to understand what’s going on and work together to resolve the situation. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been together or how long this has been a problem in your marriage; the solution is the same.

In a s*x positive marriage, both partners experience greater feelings of intimacy and aliveness. These marriages are filled with more joy, connection, excitement and laughter than their s*xually dull counter parts.

BOOK A SESSION ▶▶▶ https://laurahow.com/online-counselling/

Developing and maintaining a s*x positive attitude is important for the quality of not only our marriages, but also every other aspect of our health as human beings. To develop this s*xual positivity, some of us will need to embark on a journey if we haven't yet done so. Perhaps a journey of healing, increased awareness, of analysis, and of self-acceptance.

We might have to ask ourselves why we feel so negatively about this aspect of our nature. We might have to address our own hang-ups or deal with past negative s*xual experiences. We might have to consider what the people around us taught us to think about s*x. We might also have to question the cultural narrative around what s*x in marriage really looks like and have the courage to create something entirely different for ourselves.
