A great sex life within your marriage isn’t just fun it’s also healthy. Sex actually has health benefits. Most married couples don’t engage in sex for the health benefit, it’s the pleasure that is at the forefront of the mind. Over the years through reading and research I’ve discovered some of the healthy benefits that go along with the pleasure. Here are five benefits of having great sex in your marriage relationship.
If you have not experienced reaching heights that take your mind off the kids in the next room or kids bursting through the door at any minute, it’s time to get a babysitter and a hotel room where you can be free.
1. Oneness.
Sexual intercourse with one’s spouse can produce a oneness between two individuals that is only experienced during this intermingling of body, mind, and spirit. It’s a unity that promotes trust and vulnerability.
2. Vulnerability.
When husband and wife truly experience oneness during this time, guards are let down. The negative self talk stops. A level of trust is experienced that allows for vulnerability where there is nothing to hide. To be in love and experience all the joys a fulfilling sexual relationship brings, comes an uninhibited vulnerability that is freeing and liberating. It is a place where husband and wife are not afraid of being hurt and vulnerability feels good because in this moment love has transcended all else.
3. Transcendence.
During these times of uninhibited freedom you and your honey transcend the cares of the day and your mate is the only one, the only thing on your mind. This transcendence causes mates to temporarily loose thought of the dishes in the sink, money issues, and even the children in the next room.
Note: If you have not experienced reaching heights that take your mind off the kids in the next room or kids bursting through the door at any minute, it’s time to get a babysitter and a hotel room where you can be free.
4. Natural Stress Reliever.
This one is self explanatory. Go relieve some stress. Rest better and think clearer.
5. Physical Health Benefits.
According to medical studies great sex can lower blood pressure, lower the risk of heart attack, and it counts as exercise. Who can’t use those benefits? And it counts as exercise!
Sexual relations is a gift to married couples. Gifts are to be enjoyed. Gifts come with benefits. So enjoy the gift. Take part in it often. See how it softens the lines of division between you as two become one. Let go of the cares of the day and daily choose to become one. Do whatever you need to do to set the mood, calm the house, and have the energy to enjoy the gift of a great sex life with your mate.
