Kama Sutra Island Passion Fruit Massage Oil Candle

This luxurious and intoxicating massage candle is made with coconut oil, shea butter and Vitamin E – and without wax. The candle smells exotic and melts to create warm massage oil.

And then he can return the favor!

Tropical Passions Massage Oil

Most couples just don’t touch often enough! And they definitely don’t touch often enough in sensual ways that increase intimacy and build sexual interest.

The 5 Love Languages

The 5 Love Languages is the classic book for understanding how to treat your spouse in the way that he or she can best receive love and feel loved. If you’ve never read it (or if it’s been a while) do yourself and your marriage a favor and get a copy now. Or give it as gifts to friends and family for Christmas.

Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker

Don’t have a stereo system in your bedroom (we don’t!), but want to enjoy some sexy or romantic music? Then a portable Bluetooth speaker is just what you need. It allows you to play music from your phone, tablet or any Bluetooth-enabled device in your bedroom (or any other room) or anywhere you want to set a sexy or romantic mood. It’s also great for travel. We love ours in the bedroom, but it’s also perfect for any place or situation where you just need a little bit of music.

Picnic Backpack for 2

Forget the same old “dinner and a movie” dates! Instead, pack a picnic for two and head to a park, hiking trail, outdoor concert or any place that lets you get away together for a few hours. This Christmas, give yourself or another couple the gift of a picnic backpack that lets you easily pack a bottle of wine or other drink, cheese, crackers, snacks or even a light meal. Great for day trips too.

Pillow Talk – 40 Conversations for Married Couples

How can you experience sizzling and satisfying sex in your marriage if you can’t even talk about it? But, as we all know, couples often struggle to understand their spouse and discuss their sex life.

It will helps you learn how to ask questions, listen, and converse in a way that will avoid argument and promote understanding and intimacy. Each chapter introduces a topic, presents questions to ask one another, outlines a biblical viewpoint on the subject, and concludes with steps to help you take action on what you’ve learned.

Weighted cotton blanket

I know people who swear by their cotton blanket. I don’t have one, but people say that are very soothing, relaxing, and comforting. So if you’re someone who has trouble relaxing in bed for sex or for sleep, or your spouse does, think about a weighted blanket. The one we’re linking to is 100% cotton and is filled with tiny glass beads that provide weight in strategic areas.

Boost Your Libido Video Course

And finally, last but definitely not least, do you need a gift for yourself this holiday season? One that’s good for your marriage, but also good for you as a woman and a sexual person? If so, consider giving yourself the gift of Sheila Gregoire’s Boost Your Libido video course. Sheila is a leading Christian voice for promoting great sex and intimacy in marriage and encouraging women to embrace their sexual and sensual side. This course is packed with information that’s included in 10 videos and an ebook guide. I’m working my way through the course now, and it’s really terrific.
