Sure Shot Ways To Lift Your Libido


Sure Shot Ways To Lift Your LibidoWomen Fitness brings to you a research of sure shot ways to lift your libido. We tend to think of low libido as something that affects mostly older women�but that�s simply not the case. Roughly 40 percent of all women (premenopausal included) report having issues with their levels of desire, and at least 12 percent are troubled enough by them to fall into the category of female sexual dysfunction.

If you have low libido and you're bothered by it, tell your ob-gyn. She�ll be able to rule out biological causes, like certain meds or hormone imbalances, and refer you to a sex therapist who can work with you to create a treatment plan. But in the meantime, these study-proven tricks may also help.

The honeymoon stage won't last forever. But if you've been feeling less than charged lately you may wonder: How often do these dreaded �sexual plateaus� occur once you�ve tied the knot. Unfortunately, more than you might assume: 16 percent of married couples haven�t had sex in the past six months to a year, according to a report from The Kinsey Institute. But don�t blame monogamy�many sexual roadblocks are easy to divert if you and your man put in the proper preventative work. Hormonal imbalance could contribute to lackluster sex drive.
 


1. Sex Break

Sex can be incredible, but it can also be the giant, panting, red elephant sitting at the dinner table. Eliminating sex from the equation for a few days might be a good way to ease a bit of pressure and spend a little more time getting to know your partner.

Finding new ways to get excited and be intimate with yourself or someone new can be incredible. Cooking, dancing, painting, talking, exercising -- the possibilities are endless. Get to know your body, your likes and dislikes, things that turn you on and off and heighten your senses in other ways for a while.

When you've been in a relationship for a while, the passion can ebb for the simple reason that you both know exactly what�s coming. It could be the best and dirtiest sex anyone has ever had, but it doesn't matter: It�s the same as it was last time. It doesn't mean you care any less about your partner, or find them any less sexually attractive, it just means you need to break the spell of sameness, and break out of your stale sex routine.

Admitting it's time to change your stale sex routine. Acknowledging that a change is needed is the first step in your recovery from a stale sex routine. Once you have both agreed to make an effort to do things differently, you can then plan it however you choose as a couple. Think of it as an investment in your relationship. All you have to do is talk. This is not a serious discussion � this is a fun discussion. Think of it as a sexual brainstorming session.

Your sexual partnership is part of a bigger whole � your relationship � so treat this exercise holistically. How willing is your partner to change her habits? How willing are you? How much effort will it entail? It�s about both of you as individuals facilitating change for the greater good of your love affair.

Communicating about your sex routine

The best relationships are kept alive by maintaining the passionate dynamic that gave birth to them in the first place. So, start at the beginning: Remember how you felt at the thought of being close to her, the things you did to woo her into your arms and keep her there? Did you weigh less? Did you make more of an effort in the way you dressed? Did you spend a lot longer on lewd activities? Going back to the beginning allows you to recall the things that brought you together, and ensured you stayed together longer than five minutes. Be the man she fell in love with again.

A practical guide on this subject is difficult to create without the primary key ingredient: good communication. If everything is hunky-dory in your relationship, changing your sex life probably won�t be too much of a stretch. But you have to figure out what it is you want done differently, then talk it over in a fun, sexy way. Communication is key here, and if you get nervous and clam up, just remember who you're talking to: someone who knows you very well and, above all, who�s attracted to you.

Spontaneity is a key ingredient that is often missing from many sexual relationships after a while. The bed gets used all too frequently because it�s easy. But it doesn't matter where you do it � sex can get stale even if you always have it in the kitchen. It might be in the same position with the same amount of foreplay (or lack thereof). Capturing spontaneity again is one of the key ingredients to breaking out of your stale sex routines, so whatever you normally do, don�t. In fact, go ahead and do the opposite.

Teacher and student

Start from scratch one day. If you both pretend you�ve never had sex together before, you get a clean slate and can �retrain� your partner exactly how you want to. If you are like most couples, �the way you do it is just the way you do it,� and while that might be great, there�s always room for improvement. Take turns being student and teacher. This means it�s a game, not a �you don�t do it how I want it.� This is a golden opportunity to see, without shame, where you might be going wrong, or how you could be more right.

2. Try something new

Sexual adventures give you both a break from the norm, and may require some planning. There are plenty of classics like role playing with props and costumes, doing it in a different location and going on sex dates. All these ideas can be fun and, although maybe a little silly at first, they can really inject a new energy into your sex routine. However, it is important to involve the brain � our largest sexual organ � not just the pink bits. There are a range of games for couples where you can find out more about your partner, what they like, and you get to practice it � you may only need a pack of cards.

Read each other erotic stories, admit a fantasy to each other or watch an adult movie made by women, for women. You don�t know everything about her (and vice versa), and fantasies evolve over time, so take advantage of this. A new lease on your sex life. Spicing up a stale sex routine can be a challenge. It takes cooperation, energy and time.
 

However, it�s worth it in the end: It allows you to communicate better with your partner and, consequently, deepen your bond, learn new things about each other when you thought you knew it all, and become excited about sex again. Start tonight � or even right now.

Obvious and standard foreplay moves that women respond to are a good bet for any lovemaking occasion, but foreplay is not just about giving oral sex or loving attention to her well-known erogenous zones. The really good stuff has a lot more to it. It involves her entire body, as well as her mind. Don�t get me wrong: Chances are there are tons of things you already do to her that she loves, and luckily for you, none of them require you to be a rocket scientist or Dirk Diggler to figure out.

An important thing to keep in mind is that the best foreplay is not necessarily original or adventurous, but it is done with full attention to the job at hand (or mouth for that matter). Here are six foreplay moves that girls chitchat and giggle about when they�re talking about their best sexual experiences.

These six ideas are rarely done by men, which is sad because girls love these moves so much.

Remember: Whatever you choose to do, if you do it like you mean it, your honey will be giggling about you to her friends in no time.

A. Making Out On The Couch, High-School Style

Sure Shot Ways To Lift Your LibidoDry humping and �kissathons� are fun because they take you right back to when you were a teenager and making out was exciting and adventurous. Couch make-out sessions take the pressure off a girl from having to take her clothes off and be ready for sex, allowing her to relax and enjoy the moment. Women like to be teased. Making out with her for hours and never moving into the bedroom will get her so turned on she�ll be wanting you more than ever before.

The rules: Use the skills you gained in high school. Dry humping is one of the greatest turn-ons known to mankind, because it is so suggestive without the actual skin-on-skin touching. It has an element of driving hard for what is inaccessible. The many layers of clothing provide the padding for the crazed writhing that ensues a good D.H. session. Playing with your clothes on could ordinarily be construed as lazy or immature, but not when you are doing it deliberately. Keeping clothes on can be very sexy.

B. Spontaneous Combustion

Risky, light touching in inappropriate places when sex cannot happen right then and there is very hot to women and it warms you both up nicely for later. For example, a warm hand up her top during a movie, or a hand down the side of her pants while you choose a song from the jukebox at a bar gets her feeling tingly in all the right places.

The rules: Stop! Keep her wanting: Give her a taste of it then pull back and watch her rub up against you and begin to purr. The trick with this little baby is she knows you can�t have sex. Reverse psychology is your friend; she wants what she can�t have. By the time you get somewhere you can have sex, she will be tearing at your clothes like a wild woman. Deep tongue kissing and the art of sensual massage.

C. Deep Tongue Kissing

The long, lingering kiss that doesn't progress anywhere (just yet) is the sort of kiss that will moisten up her underwear in no time flat, but is deep and long and slow. She likes it when you savor her, and doing this gets her hot under the collar.

Deep tongue kissing is one of many formulas to turning you both on. Apparently, we like deep tongue kissing because it mimics sex � the wet, writhing, sucking, licking motions get our juices flowing and almost always kick-start our sexual desire. Increased saliva flow is associated with higher arousal, which makes sense � the wetter the better. Save the slobbering though.

The rules: The trick with this one is to choose the proper time and place for this long kiss, and not to overpower her with too much tongue or speed. It is quite hard to know when a big French kiss is going to go down well. Everyone loves a decent �snog,� but all people are slightly different, so choose your moment and make it good.

Instead of using the kiss as a two second start to sex, use it as a moment to share your passion. Kissing is an intimate sport, creating more intimacy and closeness between two people, whether it be an emotional closeness, a sexual one or both.
