So if you catch up with her mum this mothers day, be authentic and try not to be too over the top. On the other hand, don’t be to lifeless and inattentive, because either way she’ll be aware of it.

Besides getting the Mum of your partner a gift, why not also try to impress her quietly in other ways?

Eg:

Offer to do something around her house that might need to be fixed or completed.
Take her car down the street and bring it back filled with petrol.
Wash up the dishes while she can sit and relax talking with her daughter/family.
Write a nice card acknowledging her selflessness, or how great her parenting skills are or thank her for raising such a beautiful daughter who you love so much.Similar Posts:

Now, just remember when buying for females, it’s more about the effort behind the gift, then the gift itself. So if you know her style of jewellery/clothes, favourite colour, favourite brands etc. this is the secret to making that present perfect e.g. If you know her favourite colour is Pink, then get her that gym top in Pink, it doesn’t have to be expensive, just the fact you remembered this about her, goes a long way.

However if you want to some left field tips that will really WOW her, here they are:

Top Tips:

1) Every gal should have a classy pen and if she already has one, it doesn’t mean you can’t always get her another one, but in a different colour, shape or ink colour…but you can make yours that much better by a simple engraving.

2) Engraving makes any gift that much more special, from a watch, to a heart that’s on a necklace or bracelet, to a Swarovski photo frame. The greatest thing, is it doesn’t have to be an expensive accessory, just one thats in your budget and then the engraving makes it that much more personalised, special and memorable.

3) If she is the mushy type of gal…then buy her a star and have it named after her.
Visit: starnamer.net ; I bet she doesn’t have that yet!

4) If she is a ‘Miss World Peace’ type of girl, then donate to a charity in her name as the gift.

5) If you’re short of cash: create a certificate from your computer, print it off and give her a Pamper Night with a foot and back massage followed by a home cooked dinner from you. I bet there’ll be a better present after that, that you’ll both enjoy!Similar Posts:

Advice from the show ‘How to Have Sex After Marriage’ suggest that you need to activate your sexual side of the brain again and its super easy for only a maximum of 10 minutes. Especially woman this is important as we tend to get turned on physiologically first where men are more visual.

HOW: Sit somewhere quiet and think any sexy thoughts;
Ladies it might be as simple as a guys that looked hot today walking down the street; eye contact you caught off a total stranger; or a sexy couple snogging on the train?
Men it might be the scent of a females perfume you smelt that day; a sensual voice you recall hearing; a beautiful pair of legs you spotted at lunch.
Some couples have had their sexual feelings lay dormant for so long they need to start with the above process to re-activate that part of the brain to start firing off those neurones again. No need to feel guilty of what your thoughts are once you have activated that part of the brain your partner will be more attractive to you again and you’ll be in the mood.

WHY: The last thing you want to have in a relationship is lack of sex. Sex is one of the reasons you and your partner became a couple. Sex helps bond couples emotionally and be more open in their communications in other areas of their relationship. Sex also increases the longevity of a relationship and stops affairs with one partner not feeling appreciated or sexually attractive.

WHO: Children have a tendency to take that intimacy away. Or shall I say you have let the children take priority over your time and stopped having your time together as a couple as a priority even once a week.

Tips from The show ‘How to Have Sex After Marriage’:

Teach your children that mummy and daddy time is important and have sign to hang up on the door. Even make a sign for them when they want quiet time alone too.

Put a lock on your door. Too many parents have no lock on their door; so when having sex they are never really in the moment as you are always keeping one eye on the door in case one of the kids come in!

WHAT: Make an effort! Studies prove that ladies tend to get more dressed up when going out for dinner with their girlfriends then they do for their partner (especially when being together for years). Ladies seem to wear a little more make up , put a dress on instead of jeans and make that little bit more of an effort for her girlfriends. Dont you think he’ll love to see you in that dress too?
…And men you’re not getting off the hook here! Iron a shirt , give yourself a shave, put on some cologne and wear a nice sports jacket. Hey what about even asking her out to dinner???….. When was the last time you instigated that and turned up with one rose?…Even if it’s going out for dinner with the kids make the effort and reap the rewards.

Excuses: Im to tired. taking 10 minutes to lie down and think sexual thoughts will not only relax you, it will help your brain go from Beta brain waves which is where we sit when we are stressed, irritated or tired into Alpha which is a much more relaxed mediative state. Alpha is where the brain also releases dopamine that gives you a feeling of happiness and more clarity.
Once there you will have released that physiological state and realise that you are in the mood and life is so much better.

Making couples happy everywhere,

Guys remember these three easy steps to start the motors running.

Start with the Angel Kiss:
The angle kiss is a closed mouth kiss, it’s a dry kiss that is super soft. Best to do it gentle around the sides of her eyes, above her eyebrow and along her forehead. A couple at the sides of her mouth follow on with the whisper kiss.

Whisper Kiss is a slightly open mouth kiss closing the lips gently on her soft skin along the sides of her neck and is the perfect time to whisper softly something nice in her ear like “your beautiful” a few more around her neck and follow into the french kiss.

French Kiss is a succulent open mouth to mouth kiss. Not only are saliva fluids exchanged but at the same time testosterone is passed to the female and this actually turns the female on unconsciously. The tongue can softly explore hers but not engorge her mouth.
Hold the back of her neck and start moving the kiss towards the side of her neck and combining the whisper kiss but this time a little more pressure and wetter. Listen for the gasp for air from her and you know chemistry is ON!

One in eight women will develop breast cancer during her lifetime — a sobering statistic that leaves many women asking, “What can I do to lower my breast cancer risk?”

Yes, there are some factors you can’t control, such as being a woman and getting older — about two out of three women with invasive breast cancer are 55 or older when the cancer is found. However, there are steps you can try to improve your odds of avoiding this disease.

Breast Cancer Prevention: What You Can Do
Making these smart lifestyle decisions can shift the odds in your favor:

Lose the extra pounds. Being overweight or obese raises your breast cancer risk after menopause. If you have a body mass index (BMI) of more than 25, you need to consider losing weight.
Susan Gapstur, PhD, MPH, vice president of epidemiology at the American Cancer Society, says consistently gaining weight throughout adulthood also puts you at higher risk. Research has shown that women who gained 55 pounds or more after age 18 have an almost 50 percent greater risk of developing breast cancer than women who maintained their weight. What’s worse, Gapstur says overweight women who get breast cancer have a higher risk of dying from it than leaner women do.

Why does carrying extra weight put you at greater risk after menopause? Gapstur says the relationship is not entirely understood, but fatty tissue appears to contribute to higher levels of estrogen and other hormones, raising the risk of developing post-menopausal breast cancer.

Get moving. Regular exercise not only protects your heart, but may also play a role in breast cancer prevention. It’s believed that women who exercise vigorously for 45 to 60 minutes on five or more days a week may reap the most breast cancer protection. Gapstur says the main point is to get moving. “If you can do 60 minutes of moderate exercise on most days, that’s okay, too.” She adds that keeping a healthy weight and being physically active can keep estrogen and other hormone levels in check, which has beneficial effects on insulin levels and the immune system.

Cut down on cocktails. Gapstur says there’s a clear connection between alcohol use and an elevated risk of breast cancer. If you are a regular drinker, do so only in moderation. For women, that means no more than one drink per day of any kind.
Even drinking at that level slightly elevates risk. And research indicates that risk goes up with every drink. In 2007, the International Agency for Research on Cancer analyzed more than 40 epidemiological studies and found that the equivalent of two drinks a day may boost risk by 21 percent.

Gapstur says exactly how alcohol affects breast cancer risk is not completely understood. Several factors may come into play, and one could be that alcohol increases levels of circulating estrogen or other hormones in women.

Be cautious about hormonal therapy for menopause. Lower hormone levels in menopause can lead to hot flashes, thin bones, and vaginal dryness. To relieve these symptoms, women sometimes use hormone replacement therapy (HRT). But one type of HRT that combines the hormones estrogen and progesterone appears to increase the risk of breast cancer and other diseases in some women, especially in those who use hormones for several years.
Have a candid conversation with your doctor about the risks and benefits of using hormone therapy. If you decide to go ahead, it’s recommended that hormones be used at the lowest dose for the shortest amount of time possible.

Oral contraceptives. Consult your doctor about using oral contraceptives. Gapstur says that recent use of the Pill may add to breast cancer risk. But 10 years after stopping the pill, the risk is back down to average.

Consider breastfeeding. Not only is it good for baby, it also lowers your breast cancer risk. Breastfeeding lowers estrogen levels, so the longer you do it, the better.

Go on the Offense, Too Gapstur notes that if you have a strong family history of breast cancer, you should let your doctor know. You and your medical team can look at a detailed history and decide what other preventive measures might be appropriate for you.

Regular MammogramsFocusing on the risk factors you can control is a great breast cancer prevention strategy, but there are no guarantees in life. That’s why regular screenings like mammograms and clinical breast exams are so important. The American Cancer Society continues to recommend yearly screening mammograms beginning at age 40 for women who are not at high risk of breast cancer. If you’re unsure of when to start, speak to your doctor.

So I went on to answer her question best way I could.

Tip #1

Always treat each other with the same grace and patience that you had when you first started dating. My husband told me a great example of patience in a relationship. He said “If we were dating and were in the car about to leave to go out for lunch and you said you ‘forgot your jacket’ I would stop the car and tell you “no problem run up and grab it as you might get cold”. As years go by and couples start to get comfortable with each other, patience and willingness to impress each other has a tendency to die as we have now achieved our goal (having a relationship) . Fast track a few years ahead and if the exact same situation happened again with you forgetting your jacket I could respond and say “ now we’re going to be late”, or “we dont have time to get it- you’ll be fine it’s not that cold” the reaction may be completely different.
The moral to the story is treat each other the way you would when you were first dating. Treat them the same as the person you would like to impress, treat each other with the same manners, the same patience and the same optimistic view of a situation.

Tip #2

Just like dating for the first time, a man always has a tendency to compliment the female in what she is wearing, how beautiful her hair looks and vise versa for female to male. Its important to keep this up; yes you might get used to what each other looks like, but when was the last time you gave a genuine feel good compliment on to your partner?
Remember a genuine compliment is one of detail; example “your hair looks really great up in a ponytail, it shows off your sexy neck” ; “the colour of your shirt really brings out your eyes”; “gee you have a beautiful smile, it makes me so happy to see you smiling like that”. Yes it might sound corny but when you say it and the other hears it will make us glow…we wont be thinking that sounded corny.

Tip #3

TOUCH!!! Keep touching each other. When you were first dating all you wanted to do was touch him or her for the first time, then it was kiss them for the first time, then it was have sex for the first time. You were so focused on touching the other person! ……A lot of relationships fail because they stop touching. This is the one thing that keeps a relationship strong romantically.
Sit on the lounge and watch tv next to each other, my husband and I normally are holding hands without realizing and always tend to have one foot touching too. It makes me giggle sometimes cause we dont even realised we’ve locked limbs.
When you walk down the street are you to busy running after your kids to hold hands? If you have two children try this; you and your partner hold hands and then a child holds your hands on either side of you. Dont let children get in the way or be the excuse of not touching. Bringing children up in a loving kinesthetic environment makes them at an unconscious level feel as though they have a stable home life. They also are more open with communicating their feelings to the parents.

Any tips that makes your relationship work? Post your comments and feedback below we’d love to hear your tips.
