Make every touch 10x more pleasurable


Earlier this week, we talked about how important it is to continuously explore what touches feel good and meaningful to your spouse.

We had asked you in the ONE Family what touches you preferred...

One of the top responses was massage:

  • Foot massage
  • Back massage
  • Hand massage
  • Full body massage

Touch creates connection. And massage has been one of our favorite ways to build physical intimacy in our marriage.

So in today's article, we're sharing our top 5 reasons to add massage cream to your marriage toolbox.

Love you guys,

Tony & Alisa

As humans, we are designed for touch.

You and your spouse likely have your go-to ways of touching each other—long hugs, forehead kisses, interlocking your fingers, or whatever touches are meaningful to you.

And yet, there are always new touches you can explore that might bring more pleasure and connection!

That’s where massage cream comes in.

Massage cream adds an element of ambiance and adventure to your physical or sexual intimacy.

You can experience new sensations, discover new touches or techniques that feel good to you both, and set the scene for deeper intimacy as a couple.

Click below to learn five great reasons to give massage cream a try. (Plus, we'll share our recommendations!)

Today's Trivia Answer

Question: Regardless of years married, what is the most-reported hindrance of romance for the ONE Family?

A. Work issues

B. Kids

C. Lack of ideas

D. Financial constraints

When it comes to date nights, there are many options. From expensive and extravagant to budget-friendly, “date” is a state of mind.

According to the ONE Family, financial constraints are the #1 hindrance of romance.

The thing is... you don’t even have to leave your home to have an amazing date.

That’s right! If you’ve fallen into the state of mind where going on a date means leaving the house, that doesn’t have to be the case.

At-home dates can be just as fun and enjoyable as going out on the town.

So no more excuses about not being able to go out or not wanting to get dressed up or be around a lot of people.

Having a date at home can happen at any time.

Dating is a place of connection. It’s that purposeful time together with the one that you love.

In the early years of our marriage, we didn't really discuss faith, religion, or spirituality. It was a non-factor in our marriage until late 2000 when Tony hiked the Pacific Crest Trail. While he was hiking, we both had separate, powerful experiences that led us to explore what spiritual intimacy looked like for us as a couple. Maybe you can relate to spiritual intimacy feeling like a non-starter in your marriage too... Or maybe your faith is already a strong foundation to your marriage......
