How to Use Yoga to Improve Your Sex Life and More

Written by Dave Rich

Yoga is a Sanskrit word meaning “union”. It is a practice of movement, meditation, and breath control designed to get you better connected with your body, mind and soul. If you’ve never practiced yoga before you might wonder how it could improve your sex life. The thing is, yoga and sex can go hand in hand. Once you’re more in touch with your own body, the better you can be in touch with hers. Plus, it has a bunch of other great health benefits too!
5 Ways Yoga Can Improve Your Sex Life
Sex is a natural, healthy expression of love and desire between two people. If your sex life has been a little lack-luster lately, yoga can help pick things back up again.
Here’s how:

  1. Enhanced Body Awareness

In a world where most of us work 40 hours a week and have more than one or two commitments at home, it can sometimes be impossible to feel connected to anything other than your next project. Yoga helps you slow down and reconnect with your body by practicing yoga postures, called “asanas”. As you stretch, breathe, and move, you become more aware of the way your muscles move and your skin feels. Enhanced body awareness translates into better connectedness in the bedroom.

  1. Improved Flexibility

As you age and become more sedentary, you may not be able to get into the more fun positions you used to. Yoga can help with that. For tight hamstrings, standing and seated forward bends can loosen you up. Hip openers such as Triangle Pose, Garland Pose, and Seated Wide Legged Straddle can help relieve tension and give you more pelvic strength.

  1. Increased Confidence

If it’s been a while since you’ve seen your body as a temple, yoga can help. As your balance and body awareness improves, your muscles will become stronger and more toned. When a man feels confident and in touch with himself, women around him take notice.

  1. More Energy 

The regular practice of yoga helps relax the body and de-stress the mind so sleep is easier and deeper. This translates to more energy during the day and a less likelihood of falling asleep before the main event at night!

  1. Better Orgasms

Many postures improve pelvic strength and circulation, leading to stronger, longer orgasms. Yet another reason yoga and sex go hand in hand!
Partner Yoga
As the old saying goes, a man has sex to feel connected to his partner while the woman needs to feel connected in order to have sex. This is an age-old argument between couples. Partner yoga can deepen this connection and increase feelings of closeness, connectedness, and communication on both sides. As you work together, gently pushing, pulling, and stretching, you’ll learn how to work together and create a deeper commitment.
More Benefits of Yoga to Your Health
In addition to improving your sex life, the regular practice of yoga can enhance your overall health and well-being. Here are just some of its many benefits:

  • Stress Relief

When you take the time to slow down and reconnect with your self, you find perspective. All your stresses and worries seem smaller and more manageable. As your confidence increases, your stress lessens and the world seems much easier to handle.

  • Better Sleep

With its slow movements and focus on deep breathing, yoga helps relax your mind and body and help you fall into a deeper sleep. Practice yoga approximately an hour or two before bedtime to help you ease into a deeper, more restful sleep.

  • More Strength

Yoga isn’t just for flexibility, there are postures designed to specifically tone and sculpt your body in ways pumping iron won’t be able to do. Asanas such as the Bridge, Hero, and The Warrior use your own body as resistance to improve your strength. This upcoming link can give you some visual examples of strengthening yoga postures for men.

  • Better Posture

Back problems are the bane of many a man’s existence. Yoga not only stretches and strengthens those tight muscles; it also helps improve core strength. Improved core strength means you’ll stand taller and improved body awareness means you’ll be more likely to notice when you’re slouching.

  • Deeper Breathing

Yoga postures are designed to improve your breathing by teaching you how to breathe through each pose. Many also help open your chest and teach you to breathe from your diaphragm. The diaphragm is the place where deep breaths naturally come from when the body is relaxed, calm, and centered.

  • Improved Concentration

When it comes to concentration, adequate oxygen supply to the brain is key. The slow breathing techniques of yoga train you to breathe more deeply, ensuring better circulation and concentration.

  • Lowered Blood Pressure

Stress leads to high blood pressure and high blood pressure can lead to heart attack and stoke. To kill all these potential birds with one stone, there’s yoga. Studies show that a de-stressing technique such as yoga can relax blood vessels, strengthen the heart, and improve circulation.

  • Decreased Cholesterol

High cholesterol is also a common threat to men’s health. According to a clinical trial published in the Journal of the Association of Physicians of India, total serum triglyceride levels decreased after a year of regular yogic practice.
When it comes to improving your sex life or bettering your health, yoga brings union in a way other exercise programs cannot. Whether you’re looking to improve your core strength for better posture or enhance your hip flexibility for better sex, there are plenty of yoga postures to choose from.
