The Top 10 Times to Be Intimate with Your Beloved

by Diana Daffner

Anytime is a good time for intimacy. Try mixing it up and being intimate at a different time each day for a week! Intimacy can only be experienced in the present moment. These moments can be part of a one-minute intimacy break or an hour-long lovemaking session. Find the time, make the time, take the time… to be intimate with one another.

1. In the Morning

Wake up to your lover’s hands gently caressing you.

2. In the Afternoon

Delightfully enjoy the sunlight draping your bodies.

3. In the Evening

Instead of watching television, look at each other. Instead of washing dishes, wash each other.

4. In the Middle of the Night

Was that a dream or did we ride among the stars together?

5. Before Dinner

Automatic oven-timers are a handy invention!

6. During Dinner

Feeding one another, by hand, as a tantric practice, what fun!

7. After Dinner

Delicious dessert!

8. When You’re Feeling Sad

Intimacy, like singing the blues, opens your soul to its intrinsic joy.

9. When You’re Feeling Lonely

Expand into intimacy, instead of contracting into separation.

10. When You’re Feeling Happy

Let the good energy take you to great places, together!
