I'm Chris Taylor here with this week's sex chat quickie.

I want to share with you about making changes in your sex life.

Perhaps you're just beginning to nurture the sexual intimacy in your marriage for the first time in a while,

or maybe you're trying to spice things up.

This week's tip has two parts, and they are both things to

remember when making sexual changes. Number one, remember that the goal is intimacy and

oneness in your marriage. There are various reasons for making changes in your sex life. Maybe

things have gotten a little routine. You or your husband would like to

try something a little different, or maybe your body just isn't responding the way it used to.

Change can be good if it enhances the oneness and intimacy in your marriage. If the change helps one of you

at the expense of the other that diminishes the sense of oneness. Or if you make changes simply

because you think you're always supposed to be doing something new and different, it can keep

your focus on chasing the newness rather than on growing in intimacy.

Number two, the second thing to remember when making sexual changes is this. Slow progress is still progress. When we make

changes, we often want to skip straight to the end where everything is different, but sometimes we need to

take our time. Maybe we need to practice some things or try out some different ways of doing something new

before we become comfortable and

confident in what we're doing. So if you get frustrated with your slow progress, remember it is

still progress. So there you go. Remember to maintain the focus on improved intimacy and

on oneness. And remember that slow progress is still progress. That's it for this week's sex chat

quickie. We'll be back next week with a full episode.
