About Me

My photo
I would like to welcome you to this blog and let you know a bit about me. My name is Christina and I am not a therapist or other "expert" on sex and relationships. I am simply a woman who loves life, love, intimacy, romance and sex. I believe that life is all about never-ending learning and exploration. I am a wife and mother who has discovered through her experiences, a crystal clear understanding of what is truly important and maybe more importantly, what is not. I have been married since 1994 and have children ranging from 7 years old to 21 years old. I have found ways to maintain a happy marriage and passionate sex life with my husband, all while raising a family, managing finances and daily stresses and even overcoming more than one life threatening situation. I have often been the "go to" person for friends, who expressed admiration for my relationship with my partner and family and seek the same for their lives. One of my best friends, Bonnie, often collaborates with me on topics. Together we would like to invite you to join us on a journey to find a place for passion in all aspects of life.

Intimate Avenue

Most of the scenes in movies and books portray intimate moments that are smooth, exciting and free of "oops."  As we all know, life tends to have a few bumps in the road along the way.  The same tends to be the case in our "real life" intimate encounters.

Whether it is a bed that decides to fall apart in the heat of the moment or a misplaced elbow, things tend to happen that are outside the realm of perfection.  I think that each of us has experienced a little blunder or two as we have grown in our experiences. 

The key at times like this is to keep your mood light.  Remember to laugh at these little blunders.  Perfection is not necessary at all times.  Some of the greatest things have come from fumbling around and finding excellence by accident.

New Year Goals

A lot of people do New Year's Resolutions, some are kept and some are not.  Instead of doing resolutions I challenge you to set goals instead.  If you don't meet a goal, you just keep working toward it, rather than having possible negativity with failing to follow through with a resolution.

Since my blog is about passion, I recommend setting goals in that area.  Passion in our relationships for example might have the goal of each week (each month if you are more comfortable with that) to explore a new thing.  This could be incorporating a new position or new toy into your intimate moments.  Maybe you want to focus on making more time for bonding as a couple.  Perhaps you want to do something nice for your partner.  This could be something like leaving a small note for them, giving a massage.  Maybe giving them the opportunity to have some time away from the hustle and bustle of daily responsibility to take a walk, hang with the girls or guys, or get a spa treatment.

Another possible goal could involve working on your own growth.  Have you ever meditated?  Maybe this year would be a good time to give it a go.  Are you wanting to improve your physical condition?  Small changes can have a big impact.  Instead of walking slumped and looking down, stand up and swing your arms.  Dance a little bit.  Dancing can have a big impact on your mood as well as a fun way to burn a few calories.  Ladies, did you know that dancing can engage your feminine energy?  Work, lists, running a household and most jobs that we perform are all masculine energy.  It is a good thing to keep these energies in balance.  Engaging the feminine energy will also make it easier to find your sexy.

These are just a couple of ideas and there is limitless possibilities.  What are your goals for the year?
