If you want to be better in bed, you need to do your homework! Try Dr. Laura Berman's weekly homework assignment, designed to help you ace your sex life.

It's checkup time. We talk a lot about paying attention to intimate partners, but every now and then we need a reminder to pay attention to ourselves.
Here are some questions to ask yourself:

  • Are you loving your body? It's impossible for you to be wholly present in an intimate relationship if anything about your body is out of whack.
  • What's your body been telling you lately? What needs attention?
  • Are you being proactive about your own health and wellness?
  • When was the last time you had a physical? Pap smear? Mammogram? Prostate exam? STI/STD tests?
Take some time this week to check in with yourself and get checked out!
