Description

 | In our prior post, we explored the notion of “spiritual” connection, noting that such a connection can be soul-deep.  We cited the central role of spiritual connection in some ancient spiritual practices, such as tantra.  We noted that such profound connections take us out of our “normal” daily space, and that they do so by creating a “sacred space” in which partners can slow down and be fully present with one another.
 
 In this post, we’ll look at the challenges posed by trying to fit intimacy into daily life, in which neither free time nor personal presence are a given.  As we’ll see, though, mastering that “juggling act” is essential to our giving intimacy the central role that it deserves in our life.
