Peace Between the Sheets - Healing with Sexual Relationships
By Marnia Robinson
Why is it that so many relationships fail. One minute we are in love and it is working out beautifully, the next minute our differences send us miles apart. Nature designed it that way, so that we would, man and woman, come together, fall in love, procreate, and drift apart to create new partnerships elsewhere. Its hardwired in the primitive part of our brain. It pierces us with Cupid's arrow and we fall in love. It then rips the arrow out. Our perception of each other--and behaviour toward each other--changes for the worse. Remarkably, such diverse symptoms as selfishness, infidelity, unfulfilled needs, lack of communication, nagging, addictions, and sexless marriages all originate in these unsuspected commands of our primitive brain.
Can we cope with our design without breaking up? Yes. Ancient sages of the past recognised that passion drives partners apart over time, causing irritability, feelings of depletion, and a desire to get away. They hinted at a way to side-step our primitive programming and improve our well-being: make love differently.
With humor and conviction and lots of evidence-based research, Robinson outlines the hidden perils of sex as we know it. She also offers a way to outmaneuver biology and enter into a fulfilling, ecstatic, intimate and deeply connected union.

Should I Vaccinate My Child?

The P**n and Violence link
In 2003, a study by The Australia Institute revealed alarming information on Australian teens’ exposure to violent and hard-core pornography on the internet. And it wasn’t just the figures that were alarming. The report, entitled Youth and Pornography in
Out of the Dark
We can assume that most estimates of the incidence of child sexual abuse are under-estimates. Even large population surveys cannot provide accurate estimates of the extent of child sexual abuse in Australia. This is partly because many victims feel unable

Many, many years ago I ran the Youth affairs Council of Tasmania, a non-government peak body and was involved in the bizarre world of lobbying, organising, protest and compromise that comes with that kind of work. Then, I believed that the way to fight fo
