In the fast-paced world of today, couples struggle to find time and energy for sex amidst work, children, friends, family, as well as other commitments. And in general, slow, sensual lovemaking is one element of life to be put on hold when so little time exists. However, what makes love and sex luxurious is taking the time to slow down and really enjoy it. When you can immerse yourself completely into the experience of either giving or receiving, time ceases, trust increases, intimacy deepens, and you reprogramme the way you imagine, breathe, gaze, move, taste, touch and connect. "Luxurious Loving" teaches couples new, fun, and exiting ways to reincorporate erotic and sensual techniques to their lovemaking sessions. Examining ancient sexual practices and philosophies, such as Tantra and the Kama Sutra, as well as modern sexual conventions, "Luxurious Loving" instructs readers on how to explore each other's bodies.
