Partners in Passion: A Guide to Great Sex, Emotional Intimacy and Long-Term Love

By Mark A. Michaels and Patricia Johnson

“Partners in Passion: A Guide to Great Sex, Emotional Intimacy and Long-Term Love” by Mark A. Michaels and Patricia Johnson, is not just a guide—it is a virtual encyclopedia of tips, techniques, tools, guidance, and more, on how to create an amazing, intimate, loving and sexually pleasurable relationship together with your partner.  It is totally comprehensive and covers every aspect of sexuality and relationships possible from historical information and myth-busting, to anatomy and pleasure, psychology, and the social aspects of a relationship.

It is perfect for couples who are in a long-term monogamous relationship as it teaches you how to reconnect, communicate and reignite your passions together.  Using practical advice and clear techniques on how to get there, Mark and Patricia share years of wisdom and practice on how to bring passion back to your love relationships.

Here is a look at the Chapters, so you can see what I mean:

  • Chapter 1: New Relationship Energy.
  • Chapter 2: Good Relationships: The Ten Big Myths.
  • Chapter 3: A New Paradigm: Keys to Creating an Enduring and Erotic Relationship.
  • Chapter 4: Beyond the Keys: How to Live the New Paradigm.
  • Chapter 5: Great Sex: Concepts.
  • Chapter 6: Anatomy: A Little Technical Knowledge Goes a Long Way.
  • Chapter 7: Tantra and Neo-Tantra: Techniques for Enhanced Lovemaking.
  • Chapter 8: Basic Sexual Adventuring.
  • Chapter 9: Advanced Sexual Adventuring: Open Relating to Strengthen Your Partnership.
  • Chapter 10: Bonding through Kink.
  • Chapter 11: Dealing with Discrepancies, Distractions, and Disruptions.
  • Chapter 12: Going the Distance.
  • Chapter 13: Resource Guide.

 

For advanced topics in love-making, their chapter on Tantra is especially revealing.  As life-long practitioners, they share the basic concepts of Tantra and Neo-Tantra in easy to understand language with simple exercises on how to start.

The most beneficial part of this book are their concepts on the basic dynamics of an intimate, loving and sexually fulfilling relationship and how to re(create) that with your partner, as well as dispelling the ten big myths about what makes a good, healthy relationship.

“Love Is Profound Interest

Do you remember how you behaved when you were first falling in love? In all likelihood, you listened intently to what your partner had to say, found something magical in the most mundane biographical details, missed each other, and were eager to be together whenever you were apart. You probably went out of your way not only to listen to this new person in your life but also to do things to make that person happy—anything from very grand, romantic gestures to small acts of consideration, and you in turn received similar gestures with gratitude. If you’re like most people, and you’ve been together for a while, chances are your way of interacting has changed considerably, and you’re less thoughtful, less focused on your beloved, and less appreciative. You have the power to change this and recreate some of what it was like during the early stages of the relationship. And in reality, it doesn’t take an enormous effort to do so.”

—Partners in Passion: A Guide to Great Sex, Emotional Intimacy and Long-Term Love, Chapter 3.

Partners in Passion: A Guide to Great Sex, Emotional Intimacy and Long-Term Love is truly an extraordinary “guide” including a wealth of knowledge with 447 pages deep, that even “sexperts” could learn much from.  It is a must have for anyone (meaning everyone!) who is in or wants to be in a long-term, loving and passionate relationship, especially those of us who want to reignite the sizzle and intimacy of their love lives once again.
