How does the way you think affect your sex life? What causes the excitement of a new relationship to fade? And, can changing your mindset create more pleasure in your relationship and life?

As she says, people in long-term relationships often unintentionally eliminate the things that create desire and make the relationship exciting — but it doesn't have to be that way. By understanding yourself and your expectations more clearly, you can break out of old patterns and invite connection and passion back into your life.
