Are you ever surprised by what turns you on? Have your fantasies ever made you feel uneasy, confused or ashamed?

Fantasy gives us the freedom to imaginatively explore experiences that we may find impractical, unsafe, and/or undesired in real life. The “naughtiness factor” is a common ingredient that makes a fantasy enticing.

Taboo or not, allowing our imagination to intensify our experience with thoughts and images that thrill and excite us opens up a world of possibility and pleasure in the bedroom. To read more on taboo fantasies and sharing them with a partner, read our latest blog.

If your partner were to ask you to go to couples counseling, would you hear this as a signal that your relationship is in rough shape? People often think therapy is the final effort before giving up.

✨Couples therapy can actually be a place for intentionally co-creating your relationship as it evolves.✨

Couples counseling can be an intentional space to...
💜Slow down from the busy-ness of life and connect with your partner
💜Explore topics and aspects of the relationship that are important to you
💜Gain understanding on difficult subjects
💜Be fully heard and seen by one another
💜Invest in your relationship and strengthen your bond

Acknowledging where you and your partner shine together can strengthen your relationship and deepen your understanding and appreciation of each other. Strengths can be based in shared values, mutual interests, and individual qualities that balance your partnership. Consider the areas of your lives that are enhanced because you show up together. What are your strengths as a couple?

S*x is an emotion in motion.

Do you ever feel like s*x stirs up emotion in you? Sometimes we might be caught off guard by our emotional experience during s*x.

S*x is not just a physical act. Our heart, mind, and soul are all part of the experience. S*x involves emotional intimacy, and many people feel a range of emotions during s*x.

We can meet the emotions that arise during s*x with compassion and curiosity, allowing s*x to be a healing, connecting, and insightful experience, bringing us closer to ourselves and our partners.

Where would you rate yourself on this scale of pleasure tolerance?

Does happiness come easily to you, or do you more often find yourself concerned about what is not going well? Do you tend to find enjoyment in small moments or stay so busy you don’t think you have time to “stop and smell the roses?”

Pleasure tolerance is the extent of our capacity to experience pleasure in our lives. We each have different tendencies in our response to pleasant moments, which are influenced by our past experiences and our sense of emotional and physical safety in our current environment.

Have you ever thought of yourself as having "low" s*xual desire?

If your partner has a higher s*x drive than you, you may feel a sense of pressure to match them.

Consider that because s*xual desire is relative, there is nothing wrong with your level of desire.

Addressing any level of discrepancy between you and your partner can strengthen the experience of s*x for both people. When working on s*xual desire, I encourage clients to...

Not all of us are touchy feely, have erotic dance skills, or like touching feet! These coupons are a silly, playful nod to that.

Have fun when you stretch to speak your partner's love language. Which coupon would you send to your lover?
