They may swap a quick before-ya-go or welcome-home-but-get-out-of-my-way-because-I\u2019m-busy kiss, but beyond that, kissing has become a lost art. Where did all the kisses go!?!!<\/p>\n<p>Dating couples understand a good date involves going to dinner, maybe even a movie, and spending the rest of the time kissing. Lots of kissing! Of course, dates may also include spending time talking, dreaming, laughing and making memories, but let\u2019s be honest, part of making memories involves making out.<\/p>\n<p>Has kissing become a thing of the past in your marriage? If your answer is yes, then join .<\/p>\n<p>is a commitment to kiss your husband passionately every day for a month. Yes, I said a month. Pecks don\u2019t count. I\u2019m talking about real kisses. The kind of kiss that leaves you breathless and makes onscreen kisses pale in comparison. It doesn\u2019t have to be a make-out marathon, but it does have to be the kind of kiss that says, \u201cWelcome home. I\u2019m glad to see you, and just in case you\u2019re wondering, I can\u2019t get enough of you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Why am I issuing a kissing challenge? It\u2019s simple. Kissing is good for relationships. Kissing is exciting, intimate and fun. Kissing even burns calories! Did you know that passionate kissing burns 6.4 calories a minute? A <i>Hershey\u2019s Kiss<\/i> contains 26 calories, which takes five minutes of walking or about four minutes of kissing to burn off. I think I\u2019ve found my new workout regimen, girls.<\/p>\n<p>Be brave! Take the challenge. Start today. You can do it!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Tasha Levert has a Ph.D. in marriage and family therapy from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.
