John began by referencing Chrisanna Northrup’s work entitled The Normal Bar, which analyzed 70,000 people in 24 countries “to discern what’s different about people who say they have a great sex life and people who say they have a great have a sex life.I have a terrible sex life.’
He claimed that the findings ‘same about the the entire planet” before solving for a whole host of differentiating factors.
‘There are actually a dozen things people do and have a great sex life – saying, ‘I labout you” every day and that means it’s one of them: giving compliments, romantic gifts, a lots of touch,” John said.
He then turned his attention to cuddling and explained, “OhOf the people who don’t hug, only four percent of them said sohey had a great sex life. Ninety-six percent of non-cuddlers had terrible sex lives.
‘TOuch is very important, even physical touch and public affection were important.”
John stated that the romantic connection went beyond just “kissing or what happens in the bedroom.”
Nevertheless, he delved deeper into the practice of kissing.
‘EResearch has been done on just kissing and it turns out that this is not the case in every culture people kiss each other, but in those they kiss it is very powerful, very erotic most couples and it is a great gateway to eroticism,” the expert offered.

He then cited a decade-long German study that found that “men who kiss their wives goodbye when they go to work live something like four years longer than men who don’t.’
John recommended opting for a six-second kiss, which had “much more potential than a peck on the cheek.”
‘Oxytocin is secreted with a 20 seconds uAfter a six-second kiss, you both secrete oxytocin and that creates a feeling of psychological safety, connection and connection,” he explained.
