Communication is fundamental to a healthy relationship. There is no need to
feel guilty about wanting to explore or experiment with new things; sexual or
otherwise. Often times though the guilt alone may keep you from expressing the
deeper thoughts, the desires and the fantasies you have. But, by letting the guilt rule the way
you communicate, you are denying the potential for fun, learning about yourself
and each other, and deepening your relationship.
It is alright to feel embarrassed or scared when it comes to communicating
those things that you have never revealed; particularly when it comes to
intimacy. If it's about exposing what may be a darker part of your being it may
result in feeling vulnerable while tapping into your insecurities; but who doesn't sometimes feel insecure and
vulnerable at times? As with anything in a relationship, good communications often
involve negotiation and compromise, and stepping out beyond your comfort zone.
The result may very well be the greatest reward ever. Unless you open the
level of communications, you will never find out.
I am an alternative; someone who is non-judgmental, a source of anonymity
to openly communicate those things yet to be revealed, a beginning to good
communicating.

Regardless of how we look, it really is normal to feel uncomfortable,awkward,
or vulnerable when you're fully undressed in front of your partner. We
can be overly critical when it comes to our bodies and how we believe
others perceive us.
The way we think
about ourselves may keep us down and unfairly prevent us from expressing
our true desires.
No one has a perfect body.
Does your significant other place unrealistic expectations, or are your views unreasonable? Chances are
that she/he doesn't. They may even have similar concerns about them self.
Now is the time to uncover the source of this angst. Now is the time to uncover the very thing that may be keeping you from stepping forward and going after the desires of your soul.

The connection between the mind, emotions, physical health and sexual well-being may feel disconnected at times. Life and day-to-day demands interrupt and distract us causing a discomfort, almost an unexplained feeling of frustration.
Life demands keep us feeling this underlying feeling of frustration, and those life demands make it so that we never seem to have the time to sit and ponder what is causing this.
Instead of trying to find the time to figure out what's going on, we often times choose to ignore it. If we ignore it long enough, maybe, just maybe it will go away, get better by itself, or, what?
I'm the alternative. Someone who is non-judgmental, a woman who listens and asks the questions that will begin to reveal where the disconnect is, and just what may be contributing to *it*.
When you find yourself in a position of wanting to stop procrastinating, desiring to talk about what's been going on, and how things got to this point, then it's time to call me,
