It is a human curiosity to learn and know the truth about intimacy.
Intimacy frequently brings up the word sex. But intimacy is more than sex...today we take a very beautiful, broader view of intimacy.
Intimacy is about truth and trust.

Habits are those actions that we do automatically without thinking about them. These mental impulses are lodged in our subconscious brain and have been growing through repetition, although many habits are positive, negative habits do not fully activate our physical and mental capacity.

Holding a trauma can be an obstacle to achieving our goals and being happy. Anyone in your life can suffer a trauma, because of an event that affects you in a certain way and that constantly generates negative memories of fear, sadness or shame.

There have possibly always been distortions of truth...
Consider the example of this international children's game.
Players form a line, and the first player comes up with a message and whispers it to the ear of the second and subsequent people in the line. When the last player is reached, they announce the message they heard to the entire group. The first person then compares the original message with the final version.

There is a mythology in our culture that love ‘just happens’.
We know this is a truth and a myth and for many, a quandary.
One thing I know.
When I hold a newborn babe and welcome babe to my world, I know that feeling as I whisper “I love you” to that little babe, I’m actually saying “I love the way I feel about me when I’m with you”.

What your body craves is sleep. Deep restful sleep that is difficult to achieve when your thoughts are constantly filled with the anxiety to achieve, combined with the fear of failure. This torment hinders people from trusting their self, they know they are intelligent but their anxiety causes their neurochemistry to become imbalanced.

Ask your body why that situation is there and what you need to do to release it. Don’t judge, argue or analyze the wisdom that comes to you.
The body doesn't lie...it is wisdom.

Emotional wounds are the most common reasons that physical healing takes so long or fails to fully heal.
When we feel emotional or physical pain, there is a natural reaction to have someone or something to blame.
Where there's an inner wound that has festered, it becomes easy to lash out or have sudden outbursts of anger, hate and resentment.

People are abusive because they have a subconscious memory or a genetic pattern that shards off like a firecracker or the opposite, the silent treatment is the weapon. People stay in abusive relationships because their self esteem is confused or so battered they lack direction or the ability to make decisions.
