In the process, she outlines the significant benefits of intimacy coaching experienced by smart, high-achieving couples wanting to elevate their relationships.

    199. Rekindling Erotic Passion

    In this episode of the Intimate Marriage Podcast, Alexandra Stockwell, MD, delves into the challenges couples face when aiming to rekindle erotic passion and shares her perspective on how to maintain a passionate, intimate relationship over the years. Dr. Alexandra addresses a listener's heartfelt question about whether it's even possible to reignite the erotic spark in a marriage, especially when young children and life's demands take center stage. She emphasizes the importance of both partners being committed to the quality of their connection and offers practical advice for couples, particularly for men, on how to revive intimacy that has waned. This includes carving out dedicated time for closeness, engaging all the senses to foster connection and excitement, and maintaining open, non-blaming communication to deepen emotional bonds.   Also in this episode: Both partners must be fully invested in rekindling their intimate life. If one isn't ready, it's important to address and process any grievance about that in a healthy way, which includes finding out if the other partner wants to focus on this in the future.  Let intimacy develop naturally through sensory engagement and emotional connection, rather than rushing into sexual activity. For a deeper connection, engage all five senses—sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. Set aside regular, dedicated time for intimacy, free from daily distractions, to focus entirely on one another. Honest, non-blaming conversations about needs and desires are key to understanding each other and reigniting the passion in your relationship. This helps create a safe space for emotional and physical closeness.   Mindfold Blindfolds:  https://amzn.to/3cUUiib   Subscribe To The Intimate Marriage Podcast: Apple Podcast | YouTube | Spotify Connect With Alexandra Stockwell, MD: Website | Linkedin | Instagram   Get your copy of “Uncompromising Intimacy” by Dr. Alexandra Stockwell here: https://amzn.to/2ymI3Hl Download the first chapter of Dr Alexandra’s bestselling book, “Uncompromising Intimacy,” here:  https://www.alexandrastockwell.com/book Cultivate your intimacy skills (without compromise) in Aligned & Hot Marriage, Dr. Alexandra’s proven method for smart couples ready to love more fully:  www.alignedhotmarriage.com Join Dr. Alexandra’s email list to stay connected.
