The internet and our local bookstores are filled with information about how we can make our sex lives better. Whether its great advice about restoring the sizzle, tips for improving orgasmic intensity, or information about building sexual intimacy, there’s no shortage of advice about how we can maximize our sex. When we think about it, staying in touch with all of that information can be daunting to say the least. In fact, if we’re not careful, our sex lives can suffer from information over load, which may inadvertently take all the fun out of sex.

The bedroom is the place where you have your most intimate moments and also a place where you need to be your most comfortable and relaxed. Sometimes our personal habits can put us at odds with our spouse, interfering with sleep and relaxation, as well as intimacy.

These etiquette tips will help keep your shared space a retreat where you can relax and unwind together.

And a study from the UK found that a walk in the country reduces depression in 71 percent of participants. Scientists have long known that sunlight can ease depression—especially SAD, or seasonal affective disorder, in winter.
