The system reset button can be found in the center of an orgasm. It is a mysterious cascade of chemicals and reactions that are energetic but also biological. Think of the lucky among us who were conceived in the power of that center. I had several children arrive from the event. For many years my sex drive was often wrapped in my drive to procreate. The sex took a wild leap the year that I had...
“To fall in love is easy, even to remain in it is not difficult; our human loneliness is cause enough.But it is a hard quest worth making to find a comrade through whose steady presence one becomes steadily the person one desires to be.” -Anna Louise Strong
It is that time of year again when we are all faced with finding the perfect gift for someone we love. With the economic turmoil and its...
“It is said that desire is a product of the will, but the converse is in fact true: will is a product of desire.” -Denis Diderot
It seems as if everyone is talking about female desireor actually, the rampant lack of it, in the press lately. It is a conversation that happens often at my Good Clean Love office and in many ways is our raison d’etre. It was my own discouraging experience of female...
“I’ve made the most important discovery of my life. It’s only in the mysterious equation of love that any logical reasons can be found. I’m only here tonight because of you. You are the only reason I am… you are all my reasons.” -John Nash
Good Clean Love has a little surprise for you all. Starting this month, we will feature a Sustainable Love Movie of the Month every month.
As I started my...
‘My advice is this- don’t follow trends, start them.’ -Frank Capra
A reporter from Time magazine interviewed me this week. Mainstream media is starting to discover the idea of the eco-sex trend that has been carrying Good Clean Love along. Early in 2003, I didn’t start my business with a plan to ‘green’ the sex industry, I was just trying to fill a niche by creating products I couldn’t find for...
There’s something about rising out of the water that has a lot to do with our sexuality… It is vast, like a sea.’ Joseph Campbell
Saying the words oral and sex in the same sentence will turn heads at almost any health or natural conference I attend. Even with a blush, most people engage and want to know more. Providing ideas and products that encourage them to have the conversation or better still,...
“A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous.”- Ingrid Bergman
I love to kiss. When I think back to living in France in my 20s, the most memorable part of my time there was all the kissing that occurred. I got to kiss everyone: strangers, friends and of course, lovers. Participating in that social ritual that demanded that one come in close was what I...
“For women the best aphrodisiacs are words. The G-spot is in the ears. He who looks for it below there is wasting his time.’ -Isabel Allende
Recent studies have found high correlations between the music that teens are listening to and the onset of sexual activity. Teens who listen to highly sexualized lyrics were twice as likely to engage in sexual activity than teens who didn’t listen to that...
‘Physics is to mathematics as sex is to masturbation’ -Richard Feynman
Learning how to love is a complex set of equations. Knowing how to love is no more an inborn skill than being able to compute algebraic equations. Physical loving turns these basic math facts into the complex calculations which is the glue of the physical universe. Seen in this light, masturbation is like learning our basic...
“Love and intimacy are at the root of what makes us sick and what makes us well, what causes sadness and what brings happiness, what makes us suffer and what leads to healing…I am not aware of any other factor in medicine- not diet, not smoking, not exercise, not stress, not genetics, not drugs, not surgery- that has a greater impact on our quality of life, incidence of illness and premature death...
‘Sex-positive, a term that’s coming into cultural awareness, isn’t a dippy love-child celebration of orgone � it’s a simple yet radical affirmation that we each grow our own passions on a different medium, that instead of having two or three or even half a dozen sexual orientations, we should be thinking in terms of millions.’ – Dr. Carol Queen
Orgasm is a product of a sexually healthy lifestyle...
Having an orgasm starts with feeling aroused. No arousal, no orgasm. Arousal begins in the brain, specifically the limbic area of the brain where our sense of smell intersects with our emotional process, our memory store and our sexuality. Vibrations of arousal and eventually orgasm live in the body and are triggered in the brain. Trust your sense of smell and indulge your olfactory in whatever...
