Question:
Why is 3-dimensional sex (body, soul and spirit) so much more
exciting and satisfying?
Answer:
I oftentimes get couples who will say—in fact, I wish I had $20, I
probably could buy a car or something for all the times I’ve heard this
in sessions over these many years—“I wish my husband could just hug
me and not grab me.” Or, “I’m in the kitchen doing dinner, and he
comes and grabs me.”
It reminds me of looking at sex a little bit broader. I may be preaching
more at the husbands here, but I really think we should view our
sexuality and our lovemaking three-dimensionally, and our wives
three-dimensionally: body, soul, and spirit.
There really is a part of it that is body sex, and it’s a lot of fun, and
Eve is attractive, and we enjoy her. And more as a male, I sometimes
sympathize with the wives that this gets old, but at some part, it’s just
their playfulness, and they are the eternal adolescent.
But I do really preach at the guys, too, and say, “But they need some
soul sex. They need to really feel emotionally connected to you. They
need to really feel that you are varied.” Mentality is a part of soul sex.
You can really enjoy more than the physical touch. Romance is part of
soul sex. Ask, “How can we create that soul sex?”
And I also think there’s a part of this when I look at it that women, our
wives, really want to be loved, really want to be attended to. They

really want to feel included. They really want to become one flesh, to
really become a partnership. Part of that, to me, is spirit sex, that we
have this yearning to truly belong, to enjoy, to be with someone, to let
our spirits commune.
So, guys, careful with the grabbing, OK? Gals, I mean, it’s going to
happen, please. Give them a break, too. But let’s try to create that
three-dimensionality, so that we really enjoy the romance, and we
enjoy our minds and our emotions, and we really have that ability to
help our partner feel tremendously desired and needed and loved in
this deep, spiritual, resonating way.
