Keeping That Libido Up and Running :D

Keeping That Libido Up and Running :D

When we first hit puberty, hormones do all the work in keeping our sex drive (also known as libido) up and running. As time passes, factors like aging, stress, diseases and drug use can affect this drive. This condition can affect any, regardless of gender or sexual orientation. Feeling a bit unenthused about getting intimate? Here are some holistic ways to boost your drive.

Isn’t that first paragraph the truth? When we were young it seems like it was on our minds a lot and the more sex we had the better. Now sometimes life has a way of intruding on the thoughts of sex or actually having sex.

Of course there is the pharmaceutical “helpers” and that may be the answer that works for some due to possible medical conditions etc. But if you are blessed with good health but your libido has declined a bit, perhaps these natural or holistic tips could be just the key.


1) GET YOUR FITNESS ON
Working out has an infinite number of benefits for the body. From muscle tone improvement to elevated mood and self-image, a good workout routine can lead to a more fulfilling — and a more sexually active one . By getting your fitness on, you are increasing circulation within your entire body, including your newly awakened nether regions.

2) CHILL NOW (NETFLIX LATER)
If you’re under high amounts of stress, relaxation exercises are great for getting to the root of the issue, which so often affects sex drive. While everybody relaxes in different ways, yoga, tai chi, Pilates, meditation and spending time in nature are all tried-and-true chill-inducing remedies.

3) CRACK OPEN A (SUPPLEMENT) BOTTLE
A little herbal help never hurt anybody, and supplements are an easy and natural way to get your fix. Herbs that are known to increase sex drive include yohimbe, ginkgo biloba, dong quai, Siberia ginseng and maca. Plenty of supplements on the market are filled with these beneficial herbs. PLEASE NOTE - Don’t forget to ask your doctor before taking anything.

4) FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT
While sex may sound less than appealing during a low libido period, it might just be exactly what you need. Boredom can often result in a loss of sex drive, so taking a look at your current routine and spicing it up with an outdoor session or a new toy could get your drive back on track.

5) MUNCH ON APHRODISIACS
Sometimes you need look no further than your refrigerator for a little boost. Oysters, bananas, figs, garlic, avocados, almonds, chocolate and celery are just a few of the foods credited with releasing sex horms, ing with impotence and improving stamina.

6) QUIT SMOKIN' AROUND
Throw away the cigarettes! Smoking is already known for its damaging effects on the lungs, but here’s a little extra tidbit; it can decrease sex drive as well. When you smoke, your blood circulation is being depleted of essential oxygen, preventing it from functioning properly. This decrease in circulation affects all areas of the body — including your sex organs.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Have you gone through a period with decreased sex drive? What helped you get through it? Would you try any of these remedies?

Please do tell…….feel free to add anything else you can think of that could get those experiencing a dip in their sex drive on track.

If I have a partner with the same type of sexy, uninhibited mind as me, there is no problem with my sex drive. I really have not experienced that yet, although I realize it could happen at any time at my age. Of course the one thing that you didn't list was a really good porno movie to get the engine started! LOL

Cum follow my blog and feel free to leave a comment. It's what makes the chat interesting!

Yes that can help, but I think sometimes even having the right partner can not always be enough for some. I've been through a time or two that my drive wained a bit. With women menopause can sometimes be the culprit.

At one time I carried a fair bit of extra weight and didn't feel as sexy, but I lost quite a bit through diet and exercise and it was amazing what it did for my libido!!

Porn can sometimes help get those thoughts and juices flowing too...either watching solo or with your partner!

Well eating better or certain food known to help and getting exercise makes sense for sure for the reasons stated. Same with quitting smoking - better blood flow to those "special" places.....lol

I've taken supplements but not for that issue, and I'm not a real good faker, so that one might be tough for me.

Thanks for commenting

Yes I definately know the lack of sleep sex with having babies....did that one 6 times....lol

My sex drive has taken a dip a time or two from some stress or things going on in my life, but it's alive and well most times. I am a little on the tired side at the moment, I'm still trying to adjust to working overnight and sleeping during the day. Which also throws off my eating habits a bit.

My lack of sex at the moment is due to not having a lover right now, but ever hopeful for the right one to come along!
