Sensuous Relationships - 365 Days of Intimacy
When it really comes down to defining what a "sensuous relationship" is I find that most of us miss the boat all together.
Here's what I mean: Being truly sensuous is all about awakening the five senses, not just one or two.
If you really want to be sensuous in a relationship, try exploring being sensuous with all five senses in play.
It's a sure fire way to enhance your relationship, not by 30% or even 100%.
I will bet, your relationship will just simply explode almost over night.
But, you have to keep all five senses in play, all the time.
The senses of course are the sense of sight, sound, taste, touch and smell.
Most of us think sensuous only relates to sex or the sense of touch.
Here's a simple way to put this in focus.
As men and women, we associate everything through our God given senses, not one, but all five of them.
The truth is, we all just take these gifts for granted, and we do it everyday.
Be honest now, when was the last time you were actually grateful for being able to see or hear or taste, touch or smell? Hmmmm, does make you wonder now doesn't it! Let's move on, As an example, look at a picture of your last holiday, that picture of the ocean triggers a WOW memory.
A certain song does the same, a certain smell, be it food or fragrance.
I think you get the idea.
So now imagine that you put your relationship into the mix, using all five senses.
If you aren't multi-tasking right now, trying to do 17 things at once, and just stop and really hear what I am saying, the concept I am describing, will change your live forever! If you were to plan this out with your partner over a five-day period, focusing on sharing one of your senses everyday, the results will simply blow you mind.
Monday - use your sense of taste - cook something together that triggers a great sense of taste for both of you.
Not only are you sharing quality time together through an intimate dinner, it creates an instant happy memory of each other.
Very powerful.
Tuesday - use your sense of sound - tonight, regardless of the menu, share some great music that you both really like.
Again, these songs or triggers will create a shared memory.
Your time together gets associated with those songs.
Three days later when one of those songs come on the radio, you guessed it, a WOW happy trigger.
Another great use of the sense of sound is what I call "extreme listening".
And by that I mean listening closely to each other.
So maybe next Tuesday, your "sense of sound" will be intimate time together focused on talking and listening only.
I'm sure you'll agree that being a great listener, especially in a relationship, is truly what sets many relationships apart from one another.
Wednesday - use your sense of touch - this is your night to be intimate with each other.
Touching each other is a huge sensuous part of every relationship.
Putting it on the calendar may not seem as spontaneous as you would like, nonetheless, the memory attached to that evening will linger for days, and that too, is hugely powerful.
More touching? Try just going for a walk and holding hands, hey ..
that never gets old! Thursday - use your sense of sight - Plan something together that you both have to look at.
A movie, a play or just some quiet time focused on looking at each other.
Just make sure the sense of sight is the main focus of the evening.
Remember Helen Keller was blind, her other senses allowed her to see things we never do.
Don't take the gift of sight for granted.
Friday - use your sense of smell - This could be an evening where you can just do something together, but one of you wears a certain fragrance that really appeals to both of you.
In future days or weeks, your memory will be triggered by that smell.
The next time either of you smells that fragrance, it'll bring back your Friday night time together.
On your weekend, always keep the senses in play.
See, smell, taste, hear and touch things together, and your life becomes one of constant intimacy.
Are you ready for that? I mean can you really handle all that closeness? You know, you truly can really live an incredibility sensuous life, everyday! If you want to create a better life and a truly unforgettable relationship, empower your five sensuous gifts, and you'll experience a change like nothing you've seen before.
