Summary

How do we lean into sex during exhausting, hard, or stressful seasons? Even during seasons when sex is far from your mind and you just want to fall into your bed with exhaustion at night?

In this episode, you’ll hear about the ways sex can actually be a “get to” that allows your body to be flooded with feel good hormones to benefit a season of hardship, exhaustion or stress. God has created your body so wonderfully that sex can allow for tremendous stress relief, especially during seasons when you need comfort.

Listen in and hear encouragement to help you think about “the more, the more” in your marriage and how frequency in sex can provide incredible health benefits in addition to strengthening your emotional connection.
