Can Yoga Really Help You Have Better Sex? By Ruth Dulac

I heard a friend say yoga is one good way to improve one’s sex life and I went digging and if you are wondering what the connection is, you are not alone. Many women habitually think that there can’t be a connection there. Well, here are my findings.

Exercise and sex often aren’t two activities that are used in the same sentence but the art of yoga relies on body awareness, body movement, and breathing. Many experts claim that these three components are important to having healthy intimacy levels and when you have better body awareness, you are more likely to enjoy sex.

However, body awareness is one of the many foundations that yoga is built on. Being aware of your body can help to give you a better image of yourself, which can, in turn, increase your sex drive and ignite passion. You may notice things about your body when you do aerobics, yoga, or just stretch. Exercise helps to understand your body better, its flexibility, and your limits.

A lot of people including women, their partners, fitness instructors, and medical professionals have agreed to the connection between yoga and sex and if all of these people say there is a connection between better intimacy and sex, they must be right.

As for the breathing of yoga, it is so much more than just taking a breath while sitting on the couch at home. The breathing that yoga calls for actually helps to make your spine and your pelvis stronger. What does this mean for intimacy? It can result in better action and movement.

Despite the fact that yoga is often referred to as a “woman’s workout,” it isn’t. More men are starting to enjoy yoga now than before. Why? Perhaps, it has to do with what yoga can do beyond the imaginable. After all, all men and women want to achieve maximum pleasure in the bedroom. If your husband is one of those men, and they should be, convince them to try yoga with you.

The most important thing to remember is that being fit in general is likely to give you more self-confidence. When your self-confidence levels are high, your satisfaction in the bedroom will automatically increase. It will still actually increase even if the sex doesn’t change at all! How amazing is that?
