Humans have lived on earth for many thousands of years because of the inclination to procreate. Yes, natural human drives include the search for love, security, and sex. But what happens when one or more of those drives malfunctions because of hormone imbalance or too much daily stress? Not only can an individual’s self-esteem be damaged by a problem within their sexual relationship, but health and happiness can also become an issue. Here are seven ways you can boost your sex drive and bring joy back into your worldbring joy back into your world.
1. Exercise
Exercise helps your body release “feel-good” chemicals known as endorphins that produce a positive feeling throughout your body and into your view of the world. Exercise can also promote muscle tone, weight loss, and body image. Anyone feeling good about themselves can bring a positive attitude to the bedroom.
2. Anxiety
Anxiety is about much more than physical image. Stress at work can cause depression, children can reduce personal time, and fatigue can limit sexual possibilities. Each situation can add to how anxiety builds up in life and results in a reduction of sexual satisfaction and added stress. Reduce anxiety by talking to a therapist or your partner about how you feel.
3. Weight
There may be a link between weight and a person’s sex drive, although the research results are puzzling. What is known is hormone fluctuation is responsible for many bedroom problems, and self-image reflecting on being overweight can result in low energy levels and suffering libidos. Maintaining a healthy weight and body image can enhance your sex life.
4. Nutrition
Your body needs nutrients to promote health, and a healthy body encourages an active sex drive. With the proper nutrition, your metabolism can move blood and oxygen freely through your body. This allows essential vitamins, minerals, and hormones to support a healthy libido.
5. Supplements
If you are wondering how to increase your libido, why not talk to your doctor about hormone supplements? Depending on what type of peptide or enhancer your doctor or therapist recommends, the supplement can ease your depression, raise your self-esteem, and alter your sexual desire for the positive.
6. Sleep
One of the most important things you can do to enhance your energy levels and your overall mood is getting enough sleep. Finding at least seven hours of pleasurable slumber can improve the way you look at the world and increase your sexual desires.
7. Foreplay
If an exciting sexual experience is what you seek, why not try boosting your enjoyment with the help of more foreplay. Toys, touching, kissing, and talking are all actions that can excite, stimulate, and prepare your partner for an exciting and fulfilling encounter – often culminating in orgasm.
An unsatisfactory sex drive is the most common complaint therapists hear from both men and women that seek help with their relationships. Although there is no “one type fits all” cure for the problem, the seven suggestions listed above can help anyone find new ways to look at the old problem.
