659: SEX ED FOR MARRIED COUPLES
“We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures that we can have if only we seek them with our eyes wide open.” —Jawaharlal Nehru
It’s interesting how often sex in marriage becomes an obligation instead of an adventure.
But sometimes, along the way, sex becomes something we do for our spouse instead of something we do WITH our spouse.
It’s this negative sexual mindset that is robbing you of the extraordinary beauty that is the marriage relationship.
Obligation sex is hard on both of you, the person receiving it knows that the other is doing it out of obligation. The person giving it doesn’t necessarily want to be there. And that’s no fun for anyone.
That’s why Sexploration might be your next adventure together. Think about it like a new kind of sex ed.
What is Sexploration? It’s the art of journeying your way through your sexual intimacy. Rather than journaling separately and coming back and sharing, you journal together.
You could compare it to traveling and journaling your experiences together. As you explore, experiment, and figure out that journey together as you go, you come together to document your adventures, commemorating the moments along the way.
Why?
Well just like when traveling, you create a shared experience. It’s just this one has a sex ed spin to it.
- Doing it together means that someone always has your back
- You can bounce ideas off one another
- You keep each other safe
- Both of you encourage one another
The fact is, sex is a beautiful adventure when both of you choose to see it that way. Anything less is short changing BOTH OF YOU.
It doesn’t matter how long you have been married, the two of you are always changing and there are always new adventures.
If you don’t talk about things in your marriage, if you don’t choose adventure in all areas of your marriage the disconnect will grow until there is no connection. That’s why acknowledging that you haven’t been “traveling together” can be a great start.
If you’ve had your own itineraries and haven’t sat down to truly discuss what this adventure could look like together, then it’s time to get those itineraries in sync!
