7 Ways to Increase Intimacy this Week with Your Wife
|
How to increase intimacy with your wife this week. Seven short ideas below. Every entrepreneur, owner, and man I know is moving with intensity and focus on their most pressing business goals. This is a noble endeavor to provide for the lifestyle that you desire. In the pursuit, your wife still desires your presence, connection, and attention. Here are the seven short ways to win. 1) When you arrive home from work, take the five-minute presence challenge. Put your phone down, stand in her presence, look in her eyes, and sincerely ask, "How are you? What can I do this evening to support you?" Listen. Act. 2) Write a two-sentence post-it note and put it in her car or on the bathroom mirror. For example, "I see you. I am deeply grateful for your love and ________." 3) What has she recently mentioned that she would like? Listen closely to her conversation and find the hidden gem. She may have mentioned a particular shirt or task. Now, make it happen. Order the shirt. Or get the thing done by the end of the week. 4) Name something you are afraid of to her. Speak your heart, emotions, and vulnerabilities. This is the quickest bridge to a deep connection. 5) Initiate non-sexual touch. She is open to your bids for sexual connection, but not every touch needs to signal the desire for sex. 6) Send the flirtatious text message. You can even write the text and set the reminder to go out at the ideal time. Keep it short and suspenseful, but focus the words on her beauty. 7) Create an environment to play and recreate together. Having a light-hearted spirit is one dynamic we all need. Schedule the pickleball game, go on a walk together, or get a couples massage. Intimacy is about being known and connected. It will always require intention, pursuit, and risk. Intimacy happens by design, not by accident. |

Our words carry significant weight. Our tongue is like a rudder on a ship, as James says, small but powerful. I believe one of the primary principles of having a high-performing marriage is trust. The foundation of trust is being a consistent person who lives by the standard of your word. Trust is using your words to help establish a future desire or reality. Jesus makes it clear from Matthew 5:37 how simple integrity needs to be, and it starts with a simple yes or no. And the book of wisdom...
I recently sat down Chris DeLeenheer — family office leader, investor, former church planter and missionary, and author of The Quiet Drift: Why Successful People lose their Way and How to Find Your Way Back — for a conversation that moves from bow hunting and endurance racing straight into the deep end: identity, sonship, and what happens when a driven man realizes his work has quietly become his worth. Chris traces his own story from planting a church, to a season in India, to building and...
Did your sex drive recently dive?Before you look to testosterone, blame her, or call it midlife. It may have less to do with drive than it does with stress. Your body is keeping track more than you realize. Back to school. End of summer vacation. Dropping the first one at the dorm. Grieving the transition of another season. Life is full. However, if you want to feel fully alive, it will require doing the sacrificial work that is essential to reigniting what you want most. Your drive may be...
