Intimacy? 🫧 And no, it’s not only about penetrative seggs, which is what a lot of us think it is. 😉 It’s much more than that.
I like to see intimacy as INTO-ME-YOU-SEE which means that partners share their minds, bodies and souls, which allows vulnerability, trust and safety – the key ingredients to enhance and allow for a long-term relationship to thrive, even when changes and challenges present themselves.
And guess what? There are 🎱 different kinds of intimacy and here are some ways you can build on these:
🍒Physical Intimacy (is non-seggsual), and intention is so important here so grabbing your partner with the intention to have seggs isn’t what this is. Instead try: hugging your partner before work and when they return; holding their hand or rest your hand on their shoulder to let them know you are there and you care.
🫐Emotional intimacy is being naked with your emotions and an opportunity to show your partner that you have their back no matter what. Try: sharing fears and things that make you anxious; accept that flaws are a part of who you are and practice understanding and tolerance.
🍊Spiritual intimacy is having a layer that connects partners, and it doesn’t have to be exactly the same. Try: If your partner goes to church on a Sunday, accompany them from time to time; and if your partner is more spiritual than religious practice some mindful meditation or deep breathing with them.
🍓Affection intimacy is all about how you show them affection, again this is non-seggsual so remember intention is everything here. Try: physical touch like hugging, kissing, cuddling (whether in private or public); saying loving comments and complementing each other; practicing gratitude for the beautiful things they do without even thinking.
🍍Intellectual intimacy is all about how you are able to stimulate each others minds and grow together individually and as a couple. Try: reading together; watching the news together; taking up a project that will highlight each others strengths and challenges - make a plan to grow together.
🍇Experiential intimacy is how partners share experiences and moments together. Try: create a bucket list of all the places you would like to visit together (even if you can’t travel at this moment); going on dates and weekend breaks (if you can’t do this, pick a virtual tour to do together and visit a country virtually).
🥭Social intimacy is how partners make time to do things together in a social space, whether on their own or with friends. Try: going for a game drive; window shopping; visiting a new place together.
🍑Seggsual intimacy is a combination of in*******se and outercourse, and I have saved it for last as building on the 7 above before you get here will allow you to have mutually fulfilling experiences to last the ages. Try: explore each other’s bodies with no distractions (alcohol, drugs, TV); talk about likes, dislikes and create a pleasure jar of things you would like to explore together. Remember seggs is about where you go, not what you do.
Have an amazing day enhancing and nurturing intimacy and passion in your relationships.
