Sexual Harmony

  • The sexual relationship plays a vital role within a couple's marriage.

    But it is only one part of the relationship and its quality depends on all other elements of the marriage working well.

    We explored the vital area of sexuality under several headings:

    • Awareness - e.g. when you first become aware of your own sexuality

    • Male and female approaches to lovemaking.

    • Health issues - discussing how these can affect your sex life

    • Family planning - how this is a shared responsibility between the couple.

    • The benefit of good communication in order to fully understand your partner's views.

    • Fertility awareness Quiz (a light-hearted look at the facts)

    • The subject of infertility is also explored

    Maintaining your sexual relationship long-term. Here the different elements both positive and negative of a sexual relationship within marriage long term are discussed, in order to provide a realistic overview of what lies ahead.

Health Issues

 

 

Advice is freely available to women on health care, especially during their fertile life. But while women are aware of this advice, often they are so caught up in the role of mothering and family life that, without intending, they neglect the warning signs nature gives them.

Good health can't be taken for granted. So no matter how busy life becomes, it pays dividends to take the time now and then to check that everything is okay. And its always worthwhile to build healthy practices and exercise into your lifestyle. Being male has its own health risks, that should be known and dealth with.

Coronary heart disease kills at least one in every three men. High blood pressure will affect one in five. One in three of us gets cancer, while one in four dies from it. Many endure too much stress, fatalistically resigned to it instead of realising things can be changed for the better. Effective help is available, but you have to look for it.

 

 

Quality Time

 

No matter how busy your personal schedules may become - or may be, even at present - if your relationship is to flourish it is vital to set aside enough time to enjoy each other's company as a couple, and talk over areas that affect your personal lives. The union of marriage needs constant maintenance.
