May’s Position of the Month: Clutch to Climax         

May’s highlighted position of the month is the Clutch to Climax. While many have been vaccinated and life is now busy for many again (or has always been busy, just a different busy now), keep in mind healthy sex practices - please remain cognizant to wash your hands (and use the restroom) before and after a sexual experience! If it helps you both to feel more comfortable, start your shared sexual experience by taking a shower together. Remember that a sexual experience will release Oxytocin and other beneficial endorphins, which will help you and your partner(s) feel bonded to one another and release stress/tension. As I always recommend, begin this experience by doing some light stretching together to help avoid injuries and/or muscle cramps that might arise during a sexual experience (FYI – muscle cramps/injuries are the most common sexual injuries).

If you and your partner have recently welcomed home a new bundle of joy, first congrats! Second, I sincerely hope the two of you are adjusting to being new parents or parents again (and I’m also sending thoughts of rest and good sleep). Physical intimacy might be one of the furthest things from either of your minds right now – I’m looking at you, you sleep-deprived parents or new mommas who are breastfeeding – but, there will come a time when you and your partner are ready to explore physical intimacy again.

May Position of the Month: Bottom Dollar: From Our Certified Sex Therapist

Even though much of society is preparing for the re-opening of businesses, I still thought it pertinent to include some recommendations that have been posted for Sex and the Coronavirus Pandemic (found here).
