The Mirror of Sex
TO HEAR to this show NOW, go to the "LISTEN TO THE SHOW" section, below.
Joyce and Barry Vissell, authors of 5 books on relationships and sex, explore how sex provides insight into the dynamics of a relationship as a whole. When there are sexual issues within a relationship, it is usually a symptom of an underlying issue that is affecting many, possibly all aspects of the relationship. The Vissells have been counseling and teaching couples for the last twenty years how to identify and heal these issues.
Joyce and Barry Vissell will talk about how sex is a mirror for the whole of a relationship. What happens during lovemaking can offer a reflection of the condition of the rest of the relationship. Some couples may feel that their relationship is fine but their sex life is lacking in some way. Other couples may feel that their sex life is great but their relationship as a whole is unsatisfactory. The Vissells will share how examining the sexual energies within the relationship can teach us more about the underlying dynamics of the relationship in order to heal those issues and achieve a greater harmony and fulfillment within all aspects of a relationship.
