Yoga for Better Sex

Have you ever considered taking yoga classes? Do you know yoga can have a huge impact on your sex life? Yoga can help you have better sex. This article has discussed how yoga can improve your sex life, including; helping release sexual blocks, doing Kegels, and increasing desire and wetness.

The benefits of yoga are impressive; better posture, lower blood pressure, improved lung capacity, flexibility, weight loss, and improved brain function,  but one that wakes up many yogis is the promise of a fulfilling sex life. Almost everyone knows that working out can improve your sex life regarding your energy and self-esteem, but with yoga, you get all the benefits others you could have. Below are ways yoga can spice your sex life: Giving you more energy, increasing your wetness and desire, and giving you stronger erections.

Yoga Help Release Sexual Blocks

Bobde (2022) stated that yoga allows a person to relax, opens up the body and heart, and can help unlock any trauma stored in the body that interferes with your sex life. It can also help you feel strong, sexy, and confident. Yoga also reduces stress levels, which can hugely impact sexual desire.

Doing Lots of Kegels

You may not realize it, but yoga requires almost all your muscles. When working on standing positions that force you to support your body weight, you're increasing the strength of your sphincter muscle and the muscle that controls your urination. Do 10-40 minutes of Kegal exercises. Kegels can give you much stronger orgasms.

You Can Live In The Moment

Being present during sex might be harder than it may seem, even if it feels great. You might love everything your partner is doing, but if you focus on the chandelier or your stomach looks differently, you may miss all the good stuff. It's hard to orgasm with too much on your mind. A huge part of practicing yoga is being mindful of your body every moment. Your yoga instructor might bring attention to parts of yourself you hardly pay attention to. You can bring your best game to any sexy situation and take your sex life to a new level whenever you are in the right headspace.

It Makes You Feel Sexy

Yoga might look easy, but nothing strengthens your core and increases your flexibility like a good vinyasa show. Working out gives you feel-good energy and boosts your self-esteem; in turn, your sex life improves. When you are sweaty in the gym, things can get steamier in the home bedroom. The only equipment you need in the yoga studio is your body because you use your weight as resistance, which is harder than it seems. A regular yoga practice can make you feel slimmer and fit and give you more body confidence.

Today's Yoga Poses Are Tomorrow's Sex Positions

Your newfound ability to touch your toes and wrap your leg behind your head can be put into perfect use. You can flip through the Kama sutra with confidence that you can conquer any position. Focusing on key yoga poses can help enhance your sexual skills. You can try a seated wide-legged straddle to release tension in your groin muscles. The cobra goes to your go-to position to increase blood to your nether regions. Try out some of those poses with your partner naked. The possibilities and positions are endless.

You, Will, Have More Energy

Some people crave sleep more than sex. This is because people work non-stop and hardly take a moment to relax, let alone work out. Many couples are sleep-deprived, and sex often feels like another thing on the to-do list. This is where yoga comes in. Doing yoga works magic for your energy levels and helps you sleep better at night, which could be what your sexual appetite needs.

It Can Help Ease Your Period Symptoms and Up Your Sex Drive

When you feel bloated and have painful period cramps, the last thing on your mind is having sex. Although working out isn't at the top of your list either, getting in 30 to 40 minutes of yoga can help you with your symptoms. Lambrinoudaki et al. (2022) showed that half of the women practiced yoga on 150 women with period problems, including cramps, spotting, and heavy flows. The study above also noted that people who maintained a yoga routine had lower follicle-stimulating, prolactin, and luteinizing hormone, leading to less painful menstrual symptoms. When you aren't experiencing cramps and backaches, you will be more inclined to get your orgasm on, which helps to relieve period pain.

Increased Desire and Wetness

Nurmayaninet al. (2022) found a link between practicing yoga and better sexual performance in women over 45. The study above focused on 40 women and asked them about their sex lives before and after a 12-week yoga program. Seventy-five percent showed improvement in desire, arousal, orgasm, lubrication, sexual satisfaction, and reduced pain during sex.

Stronger Erections

Simionescu et al. (2021) suggested that yoga improves men's sexual functioning, including sexual desire, erection quality, orgasm, confidence, ejaculatory control, and a connection with their partner.

You Can Find Peace

It can be hard to enjoy being intimate with your partner when you are not in a great mental headspace. You need a clear mind to satisfy your sex life and yourself fully. It has been proven that yoga helps all mental and physical troubles, including anxiety, depression, and blood pressure. After one hour of dimly lit candles, a soothing voice from your instructor, and stretching out sore muscles, you can't help but like a new and much more relaxed person.
