Have you been feeling exhausted lately? Like you can’t seem to catch up on all that life is throwing at you?

Maybe you’re keeping up the juggle but you can feel you’re on the edge of dropping all the balls at once. 

Life moves fast and trying to keep up when you’re already feeling exhausted is hard. Then when you throw in time for self care, social events, and a satisfying sex life, it can feel overwhelming to say the least. 

Don’t give up hope yet because there is one simple practice you can start today that has incredible benefits like reducing stress and anxiety, increasing emotional intimacy, enhancing sexual satisfaction, improving body awareness, increasing libido, and increasing focus and concentration. 

Wanna know what it is?

Mindful meditation.

Yep, the simple practice of sitting and focusing on your breath has extraordinary benefits to your sexual health and overall wellbeing. 

Here’s some interesting statistics:

• A study published in the journal Health Psychology found that mindfulness meditation can significantly lower stress levels. Participants who practiced mindfulness experienced a 30% reduction in stress. Lower stress levels can improve sexual desire and performance. High stress is known to impair sexual function and satisfaction, so managing stress through meditation can lead to a more fulfilling sex life.

• Research in Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience found that mindfulness meditation enhances emotional regulation and empathy. Practitioners showed improved ability to connect emotionally with others. More emotional intimacy can enhance sexual relationships by improving communication and connection with your partner, leading to a more satisfying sexual experience.

• A study in The Journal of Sex Research indicated that individuals who engaged in mindfulness practices reported a 20% increase in sexual satisfaction. Mindfulness can lead to greater awareness and presence during sexual activity, which can enhance pleasure and satisfaction.

• A study published in The Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy found that mindfulness meditation improves body awareness and body image. Participants reported a 25% increase in body awareness and a more positive body image. Better body awareness and a positive body image can lead to greater confidence and comfort during sexual activity, contributing to a better overall sexual experience.

• Research published in The Archives of Sexual Behavior revealed that mindfulness meditation can lead to a 15% increase in libido among those who practice regularly. A higher libido and increased sexual desire can naturally enhance the frequency and quality of sexual encounters.

• A study in Cognitive, Affective, & Behavioral Neuroscience found that mindfulness meditation improves focus and cognitive function by about 20%. Improved concentration can lead to a more present and engaged sexual experience, reducing distractions and increasing overall satisfaction.

So as you can see, incorporating meditation and mindfulness into your daily routine can have a HUGE on your sexual experience. 

Your meditations do not have to be sexually focused in order to have the benefits on your sexual health. Any meditation practice will help.
