The Relate Guide to Sex in Loving Relationships

Enjoy a better sex life with this essential guide from Relate, the marriage guidance experts

...deeply thought-provoking.  Exploring everything from early masturbation to sexual abuse, this is a penetrating and reflective look at the conscious and subconscious influences that might scupper our sex live without us even realising it.  Debunking myths, questioning received wisdom and encouraging us to draw up a constructive plan to facilitate better sex, this - unlike many other manuals - is literary enough to merit re-reading.

Sex is part of a loving relationship. However, really loving someone doesn't always mean the sex will be wonderful - it might be as routine and dull as brushing your teeth, it might be difficult, or it might just hardly ever happen. The good news is that you can turn a disappointing sex life into one that is enjoyable and fulfilling, and a satisfying sex life can be made even better. 
 
In The Relate Guide to Sex in a Loving Relationship, Sarah Litvinoff guides you through practical tasks, quizzes and talking points to help you discover the sexual person you are, with unique likes, dislikes and needs. You will: --Build your own unique sexual profile --Draw up your own 'better sex' plan --Separate sexual fact from fiction --Tackle common sexual difficulties --Learn simple sex-enhancing techniques. 
 
The inspirational yet down-to-earth methods highlighted in this book will make a satisfying love life possible for any loving and committed couple.
