Since the olfactory nerves (the nerves in the nose) are directly connected to the limbic system ofthe brain, their stimulation by the aroma of essential oils causes immediate, although perhapssubconscious, physical and emotional responses.

Author: Brannon Smith

The exact time when pearls entered the history books is unknown, as they were discovered long before pen was ever put to paper. 300 B.C. is one of the earliest written recordings of pearls. Marco Polo also wrote of pearls in his travels. They were prized for their magnificent beauty and natural allure by royalty and commoners alike. Pearls are the most natural of gems as they need no cutting, polishing or other work to bring out hidden brilliance. Except for the nucleus implanting, they are totally created by nature and ready to admire right out of the oyster. Pearls...

What is Normal Sexuality in Marriage?

Posted on: 05 March, 2005

Everyone wonders about this. Do our friends "do it" more often than we do? Does anyone else have this problem in which one partner has high desire, and the other one has little to none? We must be really weird. Everyone wants sex, don't they? The answer is no. Not really. More than 40 million Americans feel stuck in low-sex or no sex marriages. Research studies tell us that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 7 men reported little to no sexual desire. Sometime in a marriage more than 50% of couples experience one or both partners with little...

What Everyone Needs to Know About Extramarital Affairs... and what you can do to help

Posted on: 05 March, 2005

Recent statistics suggest that 40% of women (and that number is increasing) and 60% of men at one point indulge in extramarital affairs. Put those numbers together and it is estimated that 80% of the marriages will have one spouse at one point or another involved in marital infidelity. That may seem like a very steep number. However after two decades plus of full time work as a marriage and family therapist, I don't believe that number is off the charts. I worked with a great number of people involved in infidelity who were never discovered. The possibility that someone...

Knowing what your needs are is essential to getting your needs...

Spring and autumn are the perfect times to engage in some delicious outdoor sex. I find early spring, late summer and especially early fall the most wonderful times to get back to the primal sexual basics. There are many reasons why I feel this way, with the most important being that an outdoor tryst is one of the best ways possible to renew passion, because it combines several passionate activities into one. Being naked outside elicits deep, primal, wild and uninhibited desires, it’s adventurous and can be spontaneous. With the right scenario you can also make it romantic. Having sex...

Body language is the meaning behind the words or the “unspoken” language. Surprisingly, studies show that only up to an estimated 10 percent of our communication is verbal. The majority of the rest of communication is unspoken. This unspoken language isn’t rocket science. However, there are some generalizations or basic interpretations that can be applied to help with the understanding or translating of these unspoken meanings. Here are some basics below. 1. Smile People like warm smiles. Think of a heartfelt warm-fussy, maybe your favorite pet, and smile. 2. Eyes If you don’t look someone in the eyes while speaking,...
