While "merry" seems far from the description you'd choose for this season, it still can be "good."

Find ways to help your sexual intimacy thrive no matter which season you are experiencing together. Here are a few options, and if you seem to feel stuck in a season, lean into it, ask questions, and remember the changing seasons.

For those who feel like it’s perpetually winter and the connection in areas of emotional intimacy and closeness are also affected, consider contacting your couple’s therapist or a relationship therapist near you.
