Passion ebbs and flows in relationships over time, and it can be hard to prioritize it when the business of life, work, and kids takes over. We don’t need to tell you passion and sex are part of a fulfilling relationship!
Try these four ways to bring back the passion in your relationship:
Focus on affectionate touching Offer a back rub, hold hands, and cuddle. Affectionate touch is a powerful way to demonstrate and rekindle passion.
Spend quality time together Try a variety of activities that bring you both pleasure. Have fun courting and practice flirting as a way to ignite sexual desire and intimacy. Dr. Gottman says that “everything positive you do in your relationship is foreplay.”
Have more six second kisses Dr. John Gottman suggests sharing a six-second kiss every day, which he calls a “kiss with potential” because research has shown that it can often lead to deeper intimacy.
Make sex a priority and mix it up Set the mood for sex in the way you and your partner enjoy, and vary the type of sex you have. Have gentle, loving-tender, intimate, and highly erotic sex. Break up the routine and try new things as sexual needs change.
