Intimacy?

Is intimacy in your relationship not at the level you would like?


About 80% of clients that I’ve worked with in the past complain that they’re not getting enough intimacy, physical touch from their partners.

Many of them, complained about the fact that they used to have incredible sex lives, all kinds of public displays of affection for the first year or so of the relationship but now it’s disappeared.


What do we do?


For 40 years now I’ve been in the world of personal growth as a counselor, number one best-selling author, minister, and master life coach.

I’m going to share a thought below that might seem a little different, but it has worked for so many of my clients over all these years!


And it’s a topic a lot of couples have a hard time talking about, even saying the word, can make some people feel uncomfortable.


But there are so many couples, I can think of one right now that I worked with in Australia, that have been married for 20 years but for the past 10 years had not had sex at all and they were both considering divorce.


So what did I recommend?


Here we go, buckle your seatbelt‘s because this stuff really works!


Number One. Encourage them both to take a shower and pick one night a week that they’re going to try to rekindle the flame. I only do that after I make sure there are no long-term held resentments by either party against the other, resentments will destroy all kinds of chances to rekindle a relationship.


As a sidenote… I worked with this couple for three months to get rid of all of their resentments before I brought them into this exercise we are describing today.


Number Two. So let’s say they pick Saturday night at 8 o’clock, so they both take their showers, they decide if they want to put on lingerie or pajamas or if they just want to do what I recommend… Just slowly slip into bed naked.


Number Three. We begin with simple kissing. With so many couples they’ve forgotten the art of kissing and the powerful release that happens with endorphins when we get involved with deep French kissing… Which is an amazing way to connect with your partner.


Number Four. While they are kissing I ask them to caress each other‘s bodies… To run their hands from their hair all the way down their back to their butt to their legs just keep gently touching each other‘s bodies… The skin is the largest sex organ on the body. It is so incredibly sensitive for most of us that it’s a beautiful way to slowly walk back into an intimate life together.


Number Five. After kissing and touching for 5 to 10 minutes and then ask them to start playing with each other‘s genitals… It’s called mutual masturbation.


So as you slowly arouse each other with the kiss and the touch we start to play in this area… Gently rubbing a finger around your partner’s most intimate parts, getting them excited, getting the man hard and the woman dripping wet.


And then I ask them to go ahead and masturbate each other, to gently touch and tease until their partner reaches orgasm, and then they reach their own orgasm.


With some couples I have them doing this at the same time, with others they take turns and one person lays on their back while the other massages their genitals and brings them to orgasm.


I have found, over the last 30+ years, that this one exercise repeated only one day a week will start to rekindle that deep flame within.


As many of my couples say after three weeks of doing that they’re already making full-blown love again something that they hadn’t done in years!

#1 BEST-SELLING AUTHOR, LIFE COACH & COUNSELOR DAVID ESSEL M.S. HAS BEEN SELECTED AS "THE BEST LIFE COACH IN FORT MYERS, FLORIDA" BY THE 2024 QUALITY BUSINESS AWARDS
By David Essel June 3, 2024
Even though I’ve been in this industry counseling people on sex, addiction, and porn addiction for 45 years, we have never seen the increase of these two addictions, and they can be quite different, that we’ve seen over the past five years. Porn addiction hijacks the brain, and it makes it very difficult to stay in any type of a committed relationship, because individuals become so used to the constant variety and changing of the different fetishes as well as body types and experiences that the Internet offers up even for free! SEX Addiction, when we’re talking about an individual that must have multiple partners, or someone that even forces their partner to have sex more than maybe the partner wants, it can be a completely different ball game in regard to treatment and recovery. And that’s because of the emotional involvement that many people get into when they have a sex addiction with real people, where that doesn’t happen as frequently if someone is addicted to porn, they may like certain porn actors or actresses, but they don’t create an emotional bond. But as I mentioned above, porn, addiction is nothing to take simple or easy, I have multiple clients right now in their late 20s that started their porn addiction at the age of 10 and even though they have wonderful partners they can’t have sex on a regular basis because they cannot keep an erection due to their craving for variety versus just being with one person. Every Addiction, we treat in a very similar way which might sound surprising, even our new book on permanent alcohol and life recovery, we use most of that information in that book with people who are addicted to sex or porn or food or social media or video games… I think you get the idea so many addictions when we get into treatment are treated in a very similar fashion. First we find the origin of the addiction, which means when did it start, why did it start, how did it start, and how long has it been going on? And we treat the whole person not just the Addiction part of it, because we want the whole person to gain that self-confidence back and self-love, which we lose when we’re involved with any addiction whatsoever. If you’re struggling with porn or sex addiction, go ahead and look at our permanent addiction, recovery page, study deeply study this page and that should give you some good ideas and how we approach all addictions. In 2024, the top addictions that we are working with of course are sex and porn, food, alcohol, pot and social media addiction. The addictions continue to rise in this country and until we get to the origin, which we do our practice, and then add solution steps, so people will not cross addict, or relapse, we have answers for everything. Here is a quote from a woman that I worked with several years ago who never thought she’d be able to break her sex and porn addiction as she was struggling with both. "David shared with me information that was so deep, I had no idea the difference between the porn addiction I had or the addiction I had with phone sex, or with men in general. It was a way for me to escape reality, my work demands a lot of hours, and I was using my sex and porn addiction as a way to give myself a break, sort of like a reward for all the hours I worked. However, it almost cost me my job as I started showing up late on a regular basis because I wanted to get one more orgasm at home before I left for work .” She is now free of both addictions and has been for over 15 years after going through our program. I know you’ll find the same success regardless of what type of sex or porn addiction you’re struggling with right now. Never give up! I will be by your side showing you the way, to complete freedom.
