Great Listening tool!


We have talked and will continue to talk about ways to improve your ability to converse with your partner. Communication is and always will be the foundation of your relationship. With that in mind I came across a method of communication that improves your listening skills. The IMAGO method of conversing is a great way to really hear what your partner is saying, and it is totally simple. What you do is basically repeat what your partner is saying when they want to speak to you about an issue they are having in your relationship. Simply put you quietly listen to what your partner has to say and then you repeat it. You don't comment on it or interrupt while they are talking you just listen and repeat. Sounds to simple to work doesn't it. I suggest you try it sometime it truly is an amazing way to hear and understand the message. Have you partner make sure you repeat the message exactly as they did so you get the full effect. Number one with you speaking this concern you hear it in a different manner and it registers better in your head and by not addressing or speaking on the issue it gives you time to think about what they and you are saying. For more on this topic click on the title of this post and learn in more detail how the IMAGO method can help your relationship. You can also pick up the book "Getting the love you want" or "Getting the sex you want" for a more detailed instruction on the subject.

The Guide to Getting it On!


Want to get some great reading material that will help improve your love life also. Then you need to look no farther then “The Guide To Getting It On” by Paul Joannides. This is a large book and covers everything that you can think about sex. The book covers everything from disabilities to attitudes towards different lifestyles. This book is amazing in the fact that you can actually understand the dialogue. Most books on sex I have read are so medical that you end up shaking your head wondering what they are saying. Not The Guide to Getting it on, it slaps you right in the face and doesn’t stop there it answers the questions you want answered. Paul Joannides does a wonderful job of mixing in humor to the book; this lets you relax a little as you read it. I first found out about the book through the Sex is Fun podcast and I still enjoy reading it today. I also think it is a great book to give your children as they hit puberty; I just gave a copy to my son the other day. The book takes no sides and just presents the information in an educational and entertaining way. It gives you insight into all types of life styles and covers important topics such as masturbation and safe sex. I can go on and on about this book I feel it should be in every household on the planet. Paul Joannides does a wonderful job of updating the book from time to time so just because you have a copy doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pick up another at some point and time. You can learn more at the publishers site http://goofyfootpress.com I believe this is one of those books that will be around forever. I know I will reread it several times and I am thinking about starting to give it to people as a wedding gift.

You can purchase this great book on my Amazon Side bar or purchase any other book their so we get a little kick back.
