Since most people think of bodies when they think about sex, the physical dimension of sexual wholeness is probably the easiest to grasp. However, you may not have thought much about how physical self-care impacts your sex life.
Since you're probably not going to have a lot of interest in sex if you're tired, hungry, overweight, in pain, or out of shape, it only makes sense to get enough sleep, eat right, exercise, and practice preventive medicine. Of course, good self-care makes sense for a whole lot of reasons, but adding sexuality to the list may get you to the gym a little more often.
Along with taking care of your body, it's important to work on body acceptance and body awareness. If you walk around disconnected from your body and your senses, you're unlikely to experience sexual desire even if you're in great shape.
Lastly, make sure you're using your whole body when you're having sex as well as appreciating the body of your lover. Sexual wholeness takes sex far beyond the mixing up of isolated body parts and invites a more total body experience. What's not to like about that?
