It’s World Book Day, so I felt inspired to share some of my all-time favorite relationship and intimacy books with you—the ones I return to again and again.

Do you have any favorite books on relationships and intimacy? I’d love to hear!

P.S. I’m nearly finished writing the first draft of my own book for couples who want to overcome a s*xless marriage! I’m definitely more of a starter than a finisher, so now the editing process begins… and that may take a while. 😊🤭

Tomorrow and the next few days of the Winter Solstice is a perfect time to go inwards and quietly reflect on the year that's been and the one to come.

This year for me has been incredibly challenging. Elder car. Surgery. Illness. Death. Grief. I'm deep in a process of active Wintering, needing a lot of rest and quiet.

I know for many, many others too 2024 has been a big one.

At Solstice we appreciate the dawn of the beginning of longer, lighter days ahead. As the sun returns, we ask that our spirits also be renewed in its light

This beautiful David Whyte poem speaks to this midpoint.

I will be continuing to nest, rest and also asking myself the question 'what brings me alive?' so that I can follow those threads in the year to come.

“When your eyes are tired
the world is tired also.

When your vision has gone,
no part of the world can find you.

Time to go into the dark
where the night has eyes
to recognize its own.

There you can be sure
you are not beyond love.

The dark will be your home
tonight.

The night will give you a horizon
further than you can see.

You must learn one thing.
The world was made to be free in.

Give up all the other worlds
except the one to which you belong.

Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn

anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive

is too small for you.”

➡️ Why don’t we ask for what we want?
➡️ Why is receiving hard for so many of us?

Piece in the iNews.
Nice to have some space to talk about the nuance of working with different levels of desire. So often journalists want a one sentence quick tip, and that doesn’t make sense in the work I do. It’s not a simple do this one thing and you’ll fix a longstanding emotional issue. There are many factors and this article does justice to the myriad ways to bring back passion.

Thank you to Sadhbh for this thoughtful article. *xtherapy

I was featured in the The Daily Telegraph yesterday talking about affairs and how to avoid them.

"What tends to happen is that someone brings up s*x a couple of times and the person who has the higher s*xual need feels they can't do it again. They are both hyper-aware of it, but it's unspoken," says Foster.
She doesn't prescribe s*xy underwear or positions, but “new ways of communicating about touch. What you wanted at 25 is not necessarily what you want now. “

Thank you Louise Chunn for the opportunity.
