Reignite Intimacy: Overcoming Desire Discrepancies in Long-Term Relationships

Are you and your partner struggling with a painful decline in sexual desire? Has your once-passionate connection been replaced by feelings of frustration, disconnection, or a sense of loss? Desire discrepancies in long-term relationships are incredibly common, but they don’t have to be a permanent part of your story. How do you rekindle the spark and bring back the passion you crave?

At Embodied Wellness and Recovery, we understand the challenges that come with maintaining intimacy over time. Our mini-course, Reignite Intimacy: Overcoming Desire Discrepancies in Long-Term Relationships, offers expert guidance rooted in neuroscience and somatic practices to help you and your partner restore connection and desire. Using proven, science-based methods, we address the underlying psychological and physiological factors that impact your sex life, bringing hope and actionable solutions.

The Neuroscience Behind Desire


Desire isn’t just about physical attraction; it’s influenced by complex brain mechanisms. Research shows that long-term relationships often activate neural pathways associated with comfort and predictability, but passion is fueled by novelty and excitement, which engage the brain’s reward system. Our mini-course teaches you how to work with your brain's natural chemistry to reignite passion and create a vibrant, lasting bond.

What You’ll Learn

  • Understand the neuroscience behind why desire fades, and passion often declines over time, even in loving relationships.

  • How to Rekindle Passion: Discover somatic techniques, playful rituals, and practical exercises that promote novelty and closeness.
