While always having an extraordinary love life may be a reality only in the movies -- especially with daily distractions such as kids and cash flow -- it is possible to make things better than average, more of the time. The average Canadian couple makes love three to four times a month. Why not do your bit to bump up the national average and have some fun doing it?
1. Book the time and space
Synchronize those schedules. Good things take planning, and some pre-thought shows that it's important to you and will make good intimacy more likely to happen.
2. Buy a book
It works well in the kitchen to spice things up, so have fun visiting a local bookstore to inform your mind and delight your body!
3. Bedeck the bedroom
Buy some new linens and add a new coat of paint. Consider a toasty, tasty colour like raspberry mocha to warm things up. Dress the space to make it welcoming and inviting for both of you. Not too many ruffles, please!

4. Ditch the boob tube and opt for the real thing
Move the TV out! Very few couples actually report an increase in satisfaction with the use of pornography and most television programming offers distraction rather than entertainment. Save your bedroom for rest, relaxation, romance and reconnecting. Find your stimulation in each other rather than in the compelling distraction of CSI.
5. Participate in a regular emotional workout
Stay connected. Talk about what is left unresolved and work it out. A four-letter word for the purest form of sexual intimacy is TALK. Practise daily with liberal sprinklings of humour for best results!
