Geared to women in their middle years, her Intimacy Intensives are designed with three groups in mind.
Tinamarie’s passion to help others with courage and commitment stems from a realization of how important sexuality is to our overall wellbeing. “Great sex that is healthy and natural is good for all us,” she writes. “When you are connect to your beloved in a soul-centered way, you’re whole world is lit up.”
If so, you are not alone. There is an epidemic of sexual dissatisfaction and dysfunction among women today.
It doesn’t have to be this way.

read moreWomen are starting to own their sexual power. Is the world ready for a future with sexy feminists?

In the irreverent voice of modern society, is adult potty talk masking self-hatred or just an attempt to find a cheap laugh and a decent orgasm? Motives don’t matter in the long run, at least not to my nether region. Yoni is very vocal about her preferences, especially since her procreative duties are done and gone, and we are finding out just as good,...
