What is erotic intelligence? The word erotic means the “deliberate seeking of pleasure” and the word intelligence means the “skilled use of reason.” Therefore, erotic intelligence means the deliberate seeking of pleasure using skilled reasoning.
Sex addicts deliberately seek pleasure, yet do so without the skilled use of reason. I wrote Erotic Intelligence: Igniting Hot Healthy Sex While in Recovery from Sex Addiction as a guide to assist individuals in sexual recovery to skillfully move towards healthy, intimate, and erotic sex.

Are you interested in the ways women orgasm? If so, why? If not, why not?!
There are a lot of myths about female orgasm and little understanding about female sexual arousal. The truth is that all women are NOT created equal in this area. Each woman has distinctly different patterns of arousal and needs to understand her own body so that she can bring herself to orgasm. Once a woman is familiar with her sexuality in intimate ways and what her sexual preferences are, she can then communicate them to her partner.

Infidelity is a painful experience of betrayal and experts say it can be healed.
Imagine finding out that the person you trust the most has hurt you more than anyone. People who have been betrayed express feeling like the world around them no longer makes any longer, that they can’t trust their instincts, and that every thing they once believed in has lost it’s value.
If you or someone you know has suffered from infidelity take time to get the help you need in order to heal. Take a look at Janis Spring-Abrams book, “After the Affair” and read the article below.

Erotic Intelligence is a long awaited book for those in recovery from sex addiction who want to experience sex in healthy, erotic, and life-affirming ways.
When sex is hot and heavy with your partner, there’s nothing to talk about. Over time your sexual attraction, libido, desires, and interests change. If you don’t talk about it sooner rather than later, you could find yourself in martial gridlock.
Check out this article and start talking about sex daily - you won’t be sorry!
