Nurturing Your Heart©
Hooray for those that had the courage to initiate “The Position of Love” in their lovemaking ritual the past month. I am sure that this love connection took you and your lover to a new level of intimacy. It may feel a little awkward at first, however if you keep trying, connecting in this manner will become a natural part of your daily interaction together. Practicing this position on a consistent basis will help you make your marriage and the love that you have for yourself, God and each other a priority. It is an intentional way of creating love and opening the heart.
We learned this Love Creation technique at our first Tantra Retreat in Ottawa, Canada in 2002 from Tantra Gurus and friends, Pala Copeland and Al Link. They were the first to introduce us to the concept of making it an intention to connect this way on a daily basis. It was also them who gave us insight into making our marriage a spiritual practice. In Tantra, the “YAB YUM” position is a Love Development tool that the husband and wife can use to pray and meditate together. It is the first step to creating love and nurturing intimacy.
For those “Sensuous Wives” who desire a better spiritual and sexual connection with your husband, this is a great way to implement the “Power of Prayer and Meditation” in your marriage. There is nothing more intimate and God honoring than praying for the good of your marriage and love with the man that you have committed your life to, in “The Position of Love.” Praying together as a husband and wife do wonders for your marriage and your relationship with God. Please stay encouraged and be patient with each other as you seek to develop and create a more meaningful and purposeful marriage and lay the foundation for your love.
For Gary and me, praying in “The Position of Love” is a sacred event. It is a time of reverence and gratitude. It helps us to keep our mind focused on the good that we experience in our life and marriage. It also set the tone for how we enter into our day and interact in it. Praying together is one of the many ways that we apply faith in our love.
Using Prayer in my marriage has helped me to open the door to my stuff. It gave me the power to go within myself and make the changes needed to become a better wife, lover and helpmate as I listened and learned about Gary’s heart. It also gave me the courage to take the responsibility in creating a marriage and life that is authentic and a reflection of me. This Love Development tool keeps me grateful. It is the way that I nurture and grow my spirit.
As you continue to grow and develop in the ways of love, it is my desire that you take some time away from your busy schedule and PRAY with your husband. As a wife, if you do not take the time to intentionally connect and pray with your husband and for your marriage, who will? Praying together will help you cover your conflicts and fears with the presence of God and make conscious decisions that are based on love and the essence of faith. The act of prayer will push you out of your comfort zone and create a new level of intimacy. Prayer keeps the line of communication open as you learn what is on each other’s hearts and minds. It helps to create a home environment that is steeped in peace. If you are not comfortable praying out loud in the presence of your lover and helpmate, then take the time to write your prayers down on paper and read them out loud to each other. As with all things in marriage, praying as ONE is a learned behavior.
Again, be playful. Don’t get stuck doing “The Position of Love” one way. Doing something the same way over and over again without any variation can become boring and dull, even if you are implementing “The Power of Prayer” in your love connection. You do not have to connect this way just in the morning and at night. If you have the opportunity to work at home like I do, performing “The Position of Love” midday can be just as fun. This simply means that you and your husband connect in your power three (3) times a day rather than two (2).
For those that are working outside of the home and find yourself unable to have that midday connection, plan to implement this lovemaking ritual when you come home from work, after you have given each other an opportunity to unwind and relax. If you have to go into your sacred space (bedroom) and shut the door because you have children, then do so. Just let them know that mommy and daddy are praying together and will need 30 minutes alone to devote to God and each other. I guarantee you that you will come out feeling invigorated and revived. The key is to be flexible and creative. Make your love exciting!
Have a wonderful week of God-inspired intimacy. Be blessed as you co-create the marriage and life of your dreams!
