Once a week is enough, having sex helps couples’ relationships become more satisfying

According to Kerner, many couples forget that having sex can be a tool to increase intimacy, and not just to have children.

Kerner says fitting relational and recreational sex into a procreative sex routine can also help lighten the load.

When it comes to relational sex, Kerner also recommends that couples commit to a sex session once a week. However, according to him, this is not limited to just penetrative sex.

This idea can be extended to other activities, such as giving your partner time for intimate and fun activities together, such as bathing together or simply making out.

“And it’s meant to be something that’s scheduled, something that you’re going to show up for, because it’s important, but it’s also something that’s stress-free and that can actually be fun,” Kerner said.
