Vanessa Marin and Xander Marin explain how long-term couples lose the honeymoon phase in their sex lives. They tried a 30-day sex challenge with daily emails offering two choices each day, a sensual activity and a sexual one, to make exploration fun again without the guesswork.

When was the last time your sex life felt truly exciting? Like butterflies in your stomach at work, can't stop smiling. What do you think about what happened last night? And ready to race home and jump into bed with your partner?
A lot of relationships start out that way, but as time goes on, most couples feel like they lose that spark. And it's even happened to us before.
We went through a period of time in our relationship when I was still studying to become a sex therapist where our sex life had become routine, predictable, and if we're being really honest, a little boring.
Yeah.
And of course we'd heard the advice to spice things up in the bedroom, but that just felt so awkward. I didn't want to bring anything up out of fear of hurting his feelings. And I felt so boring and uncreative, like I don't even know what the options are.
So we created the sex challenge to take all the guesswork and the intimidation out of it and start making it actually feel fun to be exploring in the bedroom.
Here's how it works. You'll get an email from us every day for 30 days with two unique challenges. Each day you'll get to choose between a sensual activity. This is going to be something more communication, touch or foreplay based. And because sometimes the hottest moments happen with our clothes on.
And also a sexual activity which is going to be a more R rated assignment. But it is not always intercourse.
You and your partner will get the comfort of knowing you're going to spend quality time together and the excitement of not knowing what exactly you're going to be doing until the day you do it.
So if you're ready to reignite that honeymoon phase spark, or you're just one of those rare couples that wants to do something like this before things start feeling stale, then we can't wait for you to join the sex challenge.
