[sce emoji=”heart”/]”Working with women and couples for the last 4 years, I became increasingly aware of the struggles relationships were enduring as the ways of the world are changing.  Everything is so instant and we are always looking for a faster, better way for everything we do. Because of this, it’s starting to hinder the level of intimacy in some personal relationships.

I found it to be my passion to help couples take one month every year and make themselves a priority.

Yes, sex is intimacy, but intimacy does not always equal sex. During the 30 days there are options presented to help the couples bond and open the lines of communication”

 

day-1

  • Watch this video! It takes 5 minutes. Feel free to share with your partner…
  • Then each of you make a separate list of what you want from sex and Intimacy from each other, on paper & exchange, talk about what’s on your lists. Also- set a goal of what you expect to get out of this challenge together. It’s helpful to write down and post somewhere that you can everyday.

day-2

  • Did you make your list? Not so bad, huh?
  • Spend 3 minutes taking selfies together! Pick your favorite one and post on your profile with the caption: We are working on “Us”!

*Distance Tip: Use technology to FaceTime or video chat and screen shot photos!

day-3

  • Find a few minutes to just sit and hold hands today.

*Distance Tip: I’m sure your longing to touch each other, so try holding on to something of your partners if you have it for a few moments and just reflect on your love for them.

day-4

  • Check out this article and share with your partner. Are you getting these health benefits? Which ones are you hoping to start taking advantage of?

day-5

  • This is something you can do together or alone. If you do it together, hold hands!
  • Stand in front of the mirror naked. Tell yourself you are beautiful or handsome, you are strong and compliment yourself on something you like on your body. If you’re with your partner, tell them what you like about their body!  Seriously, do it!

*Distance Tip: this is another great one to do over Facetime or video chat.

day-6

  • For today, turn off all technology for an agreed amount of time. No, tv, no phones, nothing. Just be with each other.

*Distance Tip: Use the medium of technology that works best for you two, but still block everything else out.

  • What are some of your favorite ways you’ve been intimate so far this week? It doesn’t have to be anything that’s from the challenge.

Couples massage.

Massage is a great way to continue to learn how each other’s bodies are constantly changing.
Take time rubbing and massaging different parts of each other’s bodies & give signals when something feels better than another.

Check out some massage products on my website, I carry them all in stock.

Time to Spoon! Yes, cuddle.

It can lead to forking if you prefer, but take ten minutes out of the day to just lay closely and hold one another.

*Distance tip: Use your words. Let your partner know what you miss about their touch.

There’s plenty of time life to get a big O in!

This orgasm you can do alone or together, but try to make the journey there drag out. When you are almost climaxed, start thinking about how exactly you feel and let it linger before giving in.
