You feel attraction. You feel novelty. You can't keep your hands off each other and everything is fresh and shiny again.” – Jamie Wheal "That's not personal. And we can reverse it. And we can reverse it by committing to sexuality as a practice and perfecting how to make love, how to actually prime the neurochemistry of the lust and the attraction that fired us up in the beginning.” – Jamie Wheal To stay connected and to learn more about Vishen and Mindvalley, click on the links below:  Website: Mindvalley.com YouTube: @vishenlakhiani Instagram: @mindvalley Instagram: @vishen Facebook: @mindvalley   Subscribe to 'Mindvalley Membership' to discover 65+ transformational Mindvalley programs – at a surprisingly low annual fee here 👉 https://go.mindvalley.com/NOW  Learn more about your ad choices.
