AFTERGLOW: THE SPILLOVER EFFECTS OF SEX ON YOUR JOB

AFTERGLOW: THE SPILLOVER EFFECTS OF SEX ON YOUR JOB

People usually bring their work home, and the same happens at work. What happens to you at home will determine your productivity at work. This article discusses the spillover effects of sex on your career.

Most people are usually at home after a tiring and stressful work day. The same also happens when someone is distracted at the office because of what they experienced at home. However, the spillover effects of sex do not negatively affect your career. Newfound evidence advises that your sex life has negative and positive effects on your work life. Since most people bring work at home, it is possible to bring your home life to work.

In a study with close to 160 participants, married adults for two weeks, they answered several related questions to determine the effect of their home life on work. These participants directly answered questions about their personal and professional lives without hiding anything sensitive information. The researchers, Wagner, Barnes, Leavitt, and Watkins, used these results to track the positive and negative effects of a people's home life on work life. Their primary goal was to find out if there are any relations between home life and work life and what they are.

The Findings of the Study

Partners who reported having sex the previous night showed jovial moods at work. Moreover, employees who had sex two days ago or three to two times a week always have jovial mods at work because of the boosted positivity. The increased positive mood causes them to be engaged fully at work. This helped the employees engage in work since they were seen as more professional. Whether an employee is having a happy marriage or having sex three times a week, it calls for better days at work, thus leading to a happy life.

The study also revealed that stressed and people who don't have sex are likely to be distracted at work. When employees come home with stress from work, and there is nothing to cool them down, they can have a horrible day at work. This cycle is vicious.

Such research empirically improves the professional and personal benefits of having a healthy sex life at home for better productivity at work. There is a complex relationship between a person's work and private life. Each one of them can either positively or negatively affect the other. Moreover, it is a highly destructive ability of stress. For instance, stress will make you less likely to engage in sexual acts with your partner at home. This will increase the stress the next day at work, which means you will not be in your best condition to work. Your productivity lowers, risking your career.

Effects of Having Sex at Night (On Your Work-Life)

It Relieves Headache

Chapman (2011) described that when you have sex at night, the body releases feel-good hormones such as endorphins, oxytocin, and serotonin that make you feel better. These hormones generate the feeling of pleasure, joy, and euphoria that makes you forget about your nagging headache, meaning you will be jovial the next day at work, which means your productivity increased.

It Reduces Stress

According to Gates, Gillespie & Succop (2011), having stress at work will greatly reduce your productivity. That is because you will never be concentrated, and you are likely to cause mistakes that will make you lose your job if it is severe. However, having sex at night lowers blood pressure and improves your mental state, thus reducing the overall stress.

Increases Your Job Satisfactions

If you don't have good days at work, consider having sex with your partner, and you will notice the benefits. For instance, in a certain 2017 study involving the subject in question, when married ladies fool around at night, the effects will show up at work the next day. People who have sex at night are always in better moods the next day and engage in work than those who don't.

Increases Longevity

Research shows that having sex makes you live longer. For instance, in a study carried out in 2019 about the effects of having sex, having sex several times a week reduces the risk of heart attack and death by at least one-third. That means you will have more time to work, and the manual labor you provide does to vanish.

It Improves Sleep

Chokroverty (2010) stated that sex improves your sleep. After having orgasmic sensations, the body relaxes, and you will feel comfortable. There is a tendency to sleep after having a big orgasmic sensation. Good sleep means that you will wake up feeling energetic and cheerful. That is the energy that you need at your workstation.

Moreover, Lastella et al. (2019) explained that people who had orgasms after sex experienced better sleep and were always energetic at work.

It Improves Memory Capacity

A good serving memory is good for your work. That means you will not have to learn the same thing for long. You only must look at its ones and be done with it. A partner who has sex at night tends to improve their memories. Employees who have sex at night always feel better and have good learning abilities than those who don't.

The Bottom Line

The increased positive mood people experience after sex causes them to be more productive. This helps employees to be engaged in work since they are spotted as being more professional. Regardless of whether an employee is having a happy marriage, having sex three times a week calls for better days at work thus leading to happy work life.
