Overview
You probably "feel better" you're in love, but did you know that being in an intimate, loving relationship has an actual, measurable, positive effect on your health? A Healing Intimacy presents startling findings from the new field of psychoneurosexuality β the study of how our sexual attitudes and behaviors affect our health β that show that being in such a relationship strengthens your immune system, improving your general well-being and making you more resistant to serious illness.
By the best-selling author of Super Marital Sex and Super Immunity, this is the inspiring guide to using the power of a loving relationship to heal the mind and body. A Healing Intimacy teaches how to achieve a relationship in which there is less emphasis on self-fulfillment and more emphasis on mutual support and respect.

This book provides partners with a way to heal each other and the world in which they live.
