Dear Lover

Every woman knows the fairy tale: find the right man, give him what he wants and needs, and he`ll love you forever. But when the myth you`ve been asked to believe fails to deliver--when you sense you`ve been settling for far less than you know in your heart is possible--how do you attract and keep a man capable of meeting what you most passionately yearn for? In Dear Lover: A Woman`s Guide to Men, Sex, and Love`s Deepest Bliss, David Deida explores every aspect of the feminine practice of spiritual intimacy, from sexuality and lovemaking to family and career to emotions, trust, and commitment. Presented as a collection of letters from a man to his "dear lover," here is this internationally acclaimed writer`s invitation to practice love as a living art as you discover: - Why your man is always your choice--and how to choose a man of deep integrity who will satisfy the needs of your body, heart, and spirit - "Sexual essence" and the three stages of loving: how to understand your fluctuating capacity to experience divine connection with another - Knowing when to end a relationship and how to deal with the "him-shaped void" your absent man leaves behind - Daily exercises to help you and your partner move from separation to openness in two-bodied devotional trust Ultimately, what every woman wants is to give and receive love fully. Whether you`re partnered or alone, Dear Lover reveals that "your love is the same love that yearns to open at everybody`s heart. You will attract and inspire a man as willing and able to open as you are. Constant yearning is the call to open and give yourself to all as love`s offering."
