Check into a little Sex Magick

What is Sex Magick?  Well obviously sex can be very magical for couples.  However when we throw a k onto the end of the word magic we get a way to bring good fortune to us.  Many people practice this all over the world and it isn't a dark and mysterious thing some might make it out to be.  I feel it is a way to honor our sacred intimacy.  Here is the most simple way for the two of you to enjoy it.  Simply put some intention into your next intimate encounter.  Dedicated it towards finding a new job or getting the home of your dreams.  Our sexual energy has amazing power and believe it or not it does work.  I like to think of it as the Law of Attraction Sexy Style.  Use it to manifest great things in your life.  What do you have to lose?  If you want to know more about Sex Magick there are numerous books on the subject.  The beauty of it is you can read all you can find and then tailor it to fit your relationship.  I will be a wonderful connection for the two of you.

Expanding Your Spiritual Growth

There are a number of ways to expand your spiritual growth. One of those ways is to study various religions and traditions. You can start by studying the most popular traditions and faiths such as Christianity, Buddhism, Islamic, or Hinduism. But, please understand that there are a huge number of other traditions and religions. Many are branches of others, but still have different beliefs, rituals and holidays. There are as many paths to God, to the Divine, to the Great Spirit, to the Universe, to the Creator, to the collective unconscious as there are souls.


Ultimately, I believe the core factors of spirituality are loving others, caring for others, offering compassion, being true to who you are and sharing joy. Those five things can change your life, the lives of those around you and the world. If you do these things, you will undoubtedly feel your connection to spirit.

When Is The Last Time The French Invaded Your Kissing?

Here is the question, when is the last time you and your partner french kissed?  Can you remember, do you only do it during intimacy.  Why?  Can you remember the first time you french kissed each other the thrill of venturing into this delight?  Well today I recommend at some point and time you french kiss each other.  Pick your time wisely.  Don't do it at the grocery store or for heavens sake not in front of the kids.  The french kiss is more private then a normal kiss on the lips, treat it as foreplay or a snack for later activities.  Sneak to the kitchen and passionately kiss each other or maybe as a welcome home.  Just make time today to at least one french kiss!

Your Inner Song

 

Feeling creative?  Feeling really happy?  Feeling down?  Grab a pen and paper and start writing.  Focus on a theme (your child, your love, love in general, joy in the world, poverty, etc.) and let the words flow out of you.  If you can play an instrument, perhaps you can write the music too.  If not, don’t worry.  This is just for you to let some of the things that are inside of you out.  You don’t need to share this with anyone – unless you want to of course.  Just let your inner self sing.

Cut Out The Soda

Did you ever think that soda could be affecting your relationship?  Well it does affect your health and your health will affect your relationship.  Cutting out soda from your diet can not only make you healthier but it can save you money also.  I understand how hard it is to cut our soda from our diets we have grown up drinking the stuff, it tastes good to us.  However it is expensive and that money could be used for other thing such as date nights, or new products for your home.  We could go into all the benefits of drinking water over soda but I think we all know them.  If water doesn't thrill you try some tea, tea can be a delicious alternative to soda.  Just look at ti this way for every soda you don't drink you are saving about 20 cents and that is low balling.  That starts adding up and could net you a nice little vacation each year and improve your health while you are avoiding it.

Honey, I Have a Headache

Recently, I was sitting at lunch with a group of my closest friends when one of the men said something like, “Women can multi-task. Right?” to the women. We responded with smiles and, “Yes, of course.” Then he asked, “Then why can’t they have sex and a headache at the same time?”


This certainly wasn’t where I thought the conversation was going in the beginning. I shared that my dear hubby likes to suggest to me that it will relieve my headache – if I have one. We further shared with my dear friend that it truly becomes a choice and depends on how bad the headache is.

I have thought further on this idea and now want to be more mindful the next time this happens to me. What do I have a headache from? Stress? Too many things on my agenda? Worried about others? Not taking time for me? Can love-making really relieve that particular headache by producing enough feel-good hormones and release enough stress? And, then there is the Divine connection that can occur during love-making – that can take away much suffering.

The point being – next time you just don’t feel like doing “it” consider why instead of just curling up under the blankets and going to sleep. You may be surprised by what comes to you.

Boooooooooo

Just wanting to wish everyone a safe and joyful Halloween.  Halloween means many different things to many different people.  It might just be a horror fest to some people while others view it as a removing our own personal demons from around us.  Which ever way you chose to celebrate it be safe and have fun.  After all accepting the differences in Halloween is a great way to open yourself up.  

Peace and Love from The Couples Spot.

Feeling Sleepy?

It is important to listen to your body, but are you interpreting the messages correctly? This is a very deep subject, but for today I am just going to focus on feeling sleepy.


You may be sitting at your desk working away. You may be in a meeting. You may even be driving. Suddenly, you feel your eyelids drooping and you just want to doze off. It is quite possible that you truly need more sleep, but it may also be possible that your body is saying, “Hey! I need some activity please.” There are a few things to try other than giving in to sleep without really listening to see if your body is asking for something else.

Try some of these ideas:

1. Take a brisk 5-10 minute walk.

2. Stand up, stretch, and take at least 5 deep breaths. Take your time inhaling and exhaling.

3. Eat a small snack filled with protein – a handful of almonds or walnuts or a cup of yogurt.

4. Avoid the candy bars and sodas.

5. Drink water – even slight dehydration can make you feel tired.

6. Meditate – even if it is for only five minutes it can revitalize you.

7. Take a 10-15 minutes power nap.

8. Sit up straight – no slouching.

9. Play some upbeat music.

10. Light a citrus or peppermint candle or put on peppermint lotion.
