Married to her husband, Tim, since 1993, Susan is an author, award-winning speaker, and serial entrepreneur, who teaches passionate lovemaking techniques to her fans around the world.   Susan has been featured in the New York Times and on CNBC and The Today Show, as well as appearing on ABC, CBS, The CW, Fox, and on NBC as the Marriage Magician.

And about 16 weeks in, we get a, depending on the XY chromosome, we get a hormonal bath that turns half of us into boys. But we start out with exactly the same genital material. And that genital material turns into a penis or a vulva, a penis and scrotum or a vulva. The two channels that run down the penis, the corpus cavernosum and the corpus spongiosum, those are erectile tissue. Those are the chambers that fill up with blood to give a man an erection. Those chambers are in our clitoris. So, we have a clitoral head, a clitoral shaft, so we actually have a shaft, the glans is like the tip of the penis, the shaft is like the shaft of the penis. So, a woman actually achieves a clitoral erection given enough massaging or oral pleasuring, or lovemaking. And then, the clitoris has two little arms that drape over the entrance to the vagina. That’s called the introitus, the entrance to the vagina. And then it has two plump bags that are the legs of the clitoris, that are called the vestibular bulbs, that are actually under the pubic hair on each side of the opening to the vagina. And that whole structure is the erectile tissue of her clitoral structure that needs to get filled with blood. Then she has a urethral sponge. We have an extruded little tube that goes down the urethral outlet, where your urine comes from your bladder and exits out of your vulva, between your clitoris and the opening to your vagina. That’s an exit. There’s a tube that runs, a fluffy tube of erectile tissue there. That’s what people call the G-spot. You can get to it from the outside, and you can get to it from the inside of the vaginal canal. And then there’s another sponge, called the perineal sponge, that’s located between the rectum and the vagina, those two tubes are parallel up inside her, and there’s a spongy tissue between them. All of that’s erectile tissue. You only see half of a man’s shaft. There’s 50 percent of his penile tissue that’s buried up inside him. Sanskrit - Yoni is the woman’s vulva, and the Lingam is the man’s penis Yoni massage Use Sexual Soulmate Pact Lingam massage   Performance Anxiety Once you understand anatomy and you start to really pleasure each other manually and orally, which gives you additional benefits, then it takes the focus off of intercourse, but it actually also makes intercourse even more pleasurable.   Polarity Testosterone and estrogen Masculine and feminine Estrogen is femininity, it’s all over the map, it’s going a million miles, it’s got its eyes on everything, it’s sensitive, it’s delicate, it’s fussy. Testosterone is straight ahead, goal-oriented, able to just be like in the zone much more easily.   Communication and Getting Your Needs Met Passionate lovemaking is emotionally-connected lovemaking. It’s when you feel totally safe with each other, when you can surrender to your pleasure together, when you can just lock your systems together and go off into joy, that you don’t know where their pleasure starts and your pleasure ends. For a woman especially, to be able to let go, she needs the conditions to be right outside the bedroom as well as inside the bedroom. Women want to be totally taken care of, but they also want some freedom. Women today are very emancipated. Men don’t understand how much romance is important to women, how much encouraging her, telling her you love her, taking her out for a walk in the countryside, rowing her in a boat on the lake, taking her for a hike. Moving a woman’s body moves her emotions, and she wants to feel an emotional connection to you. Men, often, what they want is recreational companionship. They want touch, affection, passion. Physical touch for them is love.   The Platinum Rule Treat your partner the way they want to be treated.   Behind Closed Doors With 20 percent of the effort, you get 80 percent of the results.

The Soulmate Embrace   Embodied Sex You’re feeling her, you’re touching her skin, you’re not even stroking her skin, you’re touching below her skin to the tissue underneath the skin to give pleasure, you’re bringing pleasure to yourself in all these wonderful nerve receptors by touching her for your own pleasure. You’re stroking each other’s whole bodies, you’re not just using friction of genitals, which is kind of like unconscious sex. This is conscious sex.   Presence Presence in lovemaking is a mindset. It is just like meditation, where when you meditate, and then you start thinking about something else, and then you bring yourself back. If you’re worrying about having an orgasm, you’re not going to have one. Feeling Your Pleasure Letting go Sympathetic/parasympathetic nervous system toggling Orgasms actually come out of you. They bubble up out of you like a spring bubbles up out of the ground. Polarity Masculine/feminine Reengage with the Soulmate Embrace Create a safe container for her to let go. Body shame, women as well as men. Atrophy sets in when you don’t make love   Erotic Playdates The more that you turn bedroom into play, the happier you are, and when you learn new things together, the beginner’s mind of meditation, that is really, really great. You can learn about female ejaculation. Men can learn male multiple orgasm. You can learn to have expanded orgasms.   Finding Time for Sex An hour is a quickie. It takes 20-30 minutes for your genitals to get engorged. You have to schedule it. You have to get a babysitter; you have to get the kids to bed early and get dinner done and make a commitment to it. Set a timer if you have to go somewhere so that you can come down from the oxytocin rush. Don’t make the goal about sex.     Deeper Dive Resources Organixx Supplements https://shop.organixx.com/search?q=sexual+health   Organixx Articles on Libido https://organixx.com/?s=libido   The Soulmate Embrace https://personallifemedia.com/soulmate-embrace/   The Sexual Soulmate Pact https://personallifemedia.com/sexual-soulmate-pact/   Susan’s Instagram https://www.instagram.com/susanbratton/   Susan’s YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/BetterLover   Sexual Soulmates Book https://amzn.to/2X8nHMd   My Relationship Magic https://best.personallifemedia.com/relationship-magic-promo/?email_address=   Maca https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lepidium_meyenii   Cacao https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theobroma_cacao   Citrulline https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citrulline   L-Arginine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arginine   Tribulus Terrestris https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribulus_terrestris

Ready to put serious sizzle back in your relationship? Today, we’re talking about your libido, we’re talking about sex drive, and we’re talking about how to have fulfilling lovemaking with your mate, because it is vitally important. Learn the difference between testosterone driven and estrogen driven approaches to intimacy. Listen in as Susan teaches us how caring for and nurturing the sexuality that is your divine right as a human being on this planet, leads to the intimacy and connection that we all deserve to have.   * * *   About Susan Susan is a champion and advocate for all who desire passionate relationships.

I have made it my mission to aide anyone who wants the kind of lovemaking that improves with age.”   * * *   Why Are People Afraid to Talk About Sex? We don’t really get a sex education, we get a procreation education, or a “How to not procreate” education. Abuse Adult programming is so prevalent now, that people are getting “their technique” from adult programming, which is complete fantasy, primarily degrading to women. Embarrassment Shame Religion   Why Don’t Our Parents Talk to Us About Sex? They don’t know. When they try to talk to us, we roll our eyes and like “Oh god, I don’t want to talk to you about this!”   Fundamental Thing About Libido Men are testosterone-driven, and women are estrogen-driven, and they make us wildly different in good ways and in ways that confound each other. So, we come to our connection from different perspectives.   “Revive Her Drive” Men ‘do’ to women what they want her to do to them because that’s what they know. Once you teach a man how to approach a woman the way estrogen needs to be approached, then all of a sudden, everything breaks open for the two of them.   Role Reversals There are people at this end and this end that are the minorities, but the general majority is heterosexual, monogamous, masculine/feminine, but there are people where there are reversals. And it doesn’t matter if it works for both people if there’s what is called polarity.   Polarity The masculine/feminine magnetic attraction of opposites.   Getting Over Your Mental Block Surrounding Sex Education is number one.   The Soulmate Embrace Technique Instead of trying to go from 0 to 100 miles an hour in your intimacy, start with the real foundations, like resetting your polarity. Why not just start by holding each other again? Holding and being held sets that polarity in. For the masculine, his job is to help the feminine get out of her mind and into her body. Our bodies are a temple, they are sacred. We can have sacred sexuality if we can connect at that level of intimacy, pleasure, limbic connections, soul connection, looking in each other’s eyes, syncopating our heartbeats, slowing our breath. “Setting the Lover’s Space,” having water, some strawberries and grapes, organic lube. Put in place all these little things, and hold her, and stroke her, and calm her down. Arousal and pleasure are actually the toggling of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Testosterone is “Full speed ahead!” But estrogen is like “Doodily-do, doodily-do, do, do.” Slowing down does so many things. It’s the touch of oxytocin. It’s the engorgement of our genitals. It’s the reconnection with each other. It’s the polarity that gets set in. Women need full body touching and stroking, they need their entire proprioceptive grid of cells really smoothed and touched and loved.   The Sexual Soulmate Pact “Okay, how about if we have this agreement where every time we’re intimate, I’ll tell you all the things my body is telling me she needs, so I can clue you in so you can be a winner in the bedroom with me.” Men are ruled by their hormones the same as we women are. When she blurts out any course corrections, and you can go both ways with this, of course, but this is very masculine/feminine, when she blurts out “Go harder,” “Go slower,” “Oh, you’re on my hair,” whatever she’s needing to say, and the only thing he does to respond is, “Okay, baby,” or “Got it,” or “Is this better?” or “Thank you.”   Sex Drive and Libido You need good hormones to have a libido, but that’s only a small amount of it. And it’s all of these touch techniques, and calming your nervous system, and feeling safe, and your other areas of your relationship being met and supported, that are also a big part of your sex drive, what makes you want to be with a person. That’s beyond libido, that’s actually your interest in sex, not just the fact that you feel like having sex, but that you actually take action and want sex.   How Females Can Approach This with Their Partners When you download my e-book, and you print it out, or you send the PDF to your husband or boyfriend, or you go out on date night and you read it together, or you read it in the car together, or you read it over dinner together, or whatever it is, or you leave it under his pillow, whatever you need to do, have him read it so he gets it and follows it, and say, “Could we make this pact?

Ready to put serious sizzle back in your relationship? Today, we’re talking about your libido, we’re talking about sex drive, and we’re talking about how to have fulfilling lovemaking with your mate, because it is vitally important. Learn the difference between testosterone driven and estrogen driven approaches to intimacy. Listen in as Susan teaches us how caring for and nurturing the sexuality that is your divine right as a human being on this planet, leads to the intimacy and connection that we all deserve to have.   * * *   About Susan Susan is a champion and advocate for all who desire passionate relationships. Considered the Dear Abby of sex, Susan’s fresh approach and original ideas have helped millions of people of all ages and across the gender spectrum transform sex into passion. Married to her husband, Tim, since 1993, Susan is an author, award-winning speaker, and serial entrepreneur, who teaches passionate lovemaking techniques to her fans around the world.   Susan has been featured in the New York Times and on CNBC and The Today Show, as well as appearing on ABC, CBS, The CW, Fox, and on NBC as the Marriage Magician. Susan is the Chair Emeritus of The AdTech Conference.

I have made it my mission to aide anyone who wants the kind of lovemaking that improves with age.”   * * *   Why Are People Afraid to Talk About Sex? We don’t really get a sex education, we get a procreation education, or a “How to not procreate” education. Abuse Adult programming is so prevalent now, that people are getting “their technique” from adult programming, which is complete fantasy, primarily degrading to women. Embarrassment Shame Religion   Why Don’t Our Parents Talk to Us About Sex? They don’t know. When they try to talk to us, we roll our eyes and like “Oh god, I don’t want to talk to you about this!”   Fundamental Thing About Libido Men are testosterone-driven, and women are estrogen-driven, and they make us wildly different in good ways and in ways that confound each other. So, we come to our connection from different perspectives.   “Revive Her Drive” Men ‘do’ to women what they want her to do to them because that’s what they know. Once you teach a man how to approach a woman the way estrogen needs to be approached, then all of a sudden, everything breaks open for the two of them.   Role Reversals There are people at this end and this end that are the minorities, but the general majority is heterosexual, monogamous, masculine/feminine, but there are people where there are reversals. And it doesn’t matter if it works for both people if there’s what is called polarity.   Polarity The masculine/feminine magnetic attraction of opposites.   Getting Over Your Mental Block Surrounding Sex Education is number one.   The Soulmate Embrace Technique Instead of trying to go from 0 to 100 miles an hour in your intimacy, start with the real foundations, like resetting your polarity. Why not just start by holding each other again? Holding and being held sets that polarity in. For the masculine, his job is to help the feminine get out of her mind and into her body. Our bodies are a temple, they are sacred. We can have sacred sexuality if we can connect at that level of intimacy, pleasure, limbic connections, soul connection, looking in each other’s eyes, syncopating our heartbeats, slowing our breath. “Setting the Lover’s Space,” having water, some strawberries and grapes, organic lube. Put in place all these little things, and hold her, and stroke her, and calm her down. Arousal and pleasure are actually the toggling of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Testosterone is “Full speed ahead!” But estrogen is like “Doodily-do, doodily-do, do, do.” Slowing down does so many things. It’s the touch of oxytocin. It’s the engorgement of our genitals. It’s the reconnection with each other. It’s the polarity that gets set in. Women need full body touching and stroking, they need their entire proprioceptive grid of cells really smoothed and touched and loved.   The Sexual Soulmate Pact “Okay, how about if we have this agreement where every time we’re intimate, I’ll tell you all the things my body is telling me she needs, so I can clue you in so you can be a winner in the bedroom with me.” Men are ruled by their hormones the same as we women are. When she blurts out any course corrections, and you can go both ways with this, of course, but this is very masculine/feminine, when she blurts out “Go harder,” “Go slower,” “Oh, you’re on my hair,” whatever she’s needing to say, and the only thing he does to respond is, “Okay, baby,” or “Got it,” or “Is this better?” or “Thank you.”   Sex Drive and Libido You need good hormones to have a libido, but that’s only a small amount of it.

Vi spanar i framtidskikaren och ser chips friterade i olja från Norrland, och pratar domesticering av den vilda växten fältkrassing, Lepidium campestre, med forskarna Emelie Ivarson, Sten Stymne och Li-Hua Zhu på Institutionen för växtförädling vid SLU i Alnarp. Eftersom fossil olja inte bara har negativ miljöpåverkan, utan även är en ändlig resurs, vore det bra om vi kunde producera mer växtolja, både som livsmedel och till industrin. Det är där fältkrassingen kommer in – den är rik på frön och till skillnad från raps tål den kalla vintrar. Målet är att fältkrassing ska bli en ny oljegröda som går att odla på åkrarna i norr. Men hur tämjer man en vild växt?
