What are your excuses? The kids? Work? The house? Exhaustion? Headache? Americans are in the midst of a sexual famine – and Dr. Oz wants it to stop right now.
It was just about a year ago when Pastor Ed Young issued his Seven Day Sex Challenge. Now Dr. Oz (you remember him from Oprah, right?) is on the better sex life crusade. Dr. Oz's National Sex Experiment is more methodical and time consuming (90 days) but it from what I can see (the action plan is being revealed incrementally) this will be a great way to reconnect and bring some heat back into your relationship.
Even if your sex life is not in crisis, Dr. Oz's approach can be restorative for your marriage. For example,
Part 1, Step 2: Kiss and Cuddle
Set aside time to kiss and cuddle for 10 minutes, 3 times a week. No having sex during this time – it’s meant to rekindle your desire for foreplay and awaken your slumbering sexual desires.
My husband works from home and we see each other quite a bit but I've been surprised to realize that there are days when we will get several hours into the day without having kissed or even hugged. Sometimes you just have to make a conscientious effort to be intimate.
I'm looking forward to seeing what else Dr. Oz has in store for his sex experiment. I've signed up, will you?

Shhh…don't tell my husband about this!
