Want a more sexual marriage? It will require that you learn how to create more emotional connection first and also how you sabotage the emotional connection so you can stop doing that too.
In this episode I talk about a really common factor that breaks the intimate emotional connection that women need to feel safe and attracted to us men before they can be sexually intimate with us again.
In the video below I explain this in more detail including:
Why creating a more sexual marriage requires that you understand and start taking responsibility for leading the emotional environment and particularly the emotional safety so that she can relax and connection can naturally grow again.
How the stronger and more reliable the emotional connection is, the easier it is to be physical and have a more fun,easy, satisfying and fulfilling sexual relationship.
Why acknowledge and validating her feelings as true (even if you have a different perspective to her) can bridge the disconnected emotional gap and improve the intimacy in your marriage.
