Yoga for better Sex Life
More than a third of women in perimenopause or menopause report having sexual difficulties, from lack of interest in sex to trouble having an orgasm.
The main culprit is declining levels of estrogen, which can reduce a person’s desire to have sex and make sexual arousal more difficult.
Regular yoga practice helps reduce stress levels in the body by decreasing cortisol levels, controlling many negative effects on the body, and increases sexual desire.
Yoga may also help improve overall sexual function.
Balasana
This pose is a fantastic way to open your hips and find deep relaxation without needing to be crazy flexible.
It’s also a grounding pose, meaning your focus should be on resting and breathing throughout the pose, which can help any stress and anxiety melt away.
Badda Konasana
Increases blood flow to the pelvic floor, reproductive organs, hips and pelvic “bowl.”
More blood flow means fresh oxygen is carrying nutrients and wellbeing to this part to your body.
Forward-bending postures also calm the mind and invite inner quiet and peace, all of which helps you let go of the stress that suffocates your sex drive.
Urdhva Dhanurasana
This pose with backbends is energizing because it stimulates the nervous system by activating the metabolism and releasing adrenaline.
Wheel pose is great for stretching the hip flexors, which can help in creating more intense orgasms.
Upavistha Konasana
This pose is very helpful for those with a low libido.
There is a deep inner thigh and groin stretch with this pose, which promotes greater circulation to the pelvic region.
The hips gain a wider range of motion with this pose, which can bring more fun into your sexual experiences.
Salamba Sarvangasana
Shoulder Stand Pose aids in stimulating hormone production and balancing the thyroid and hypothalamus glands.
The throat chakra is also ignited in this pose which aids to express all of your desires and fantasies to your partner.
Padmasana
Padmasana awakens the Kundalini energy that rests at the base of the spine.
It gives you the space and time to tap into these intensely personal and rich experiences.
By taking the time to be present in the moment, you create a direct unfiltered connection to your true self – sexuality included.
If you want to better understand the menopause
Gravity and wrinkles are fine with me. They’re a small price to pay for the new wisdom inside my head and my heart.
When you’re young, there’s so much now that you can’t take it in. It’s pouring over you like awaterfall. When you’re older, it’s less intense, but you’re able to reach out and drink it. I love being older.
I see menopause as the start of the next fabulous phase of life as a woman. Now is a time to ‘tune in’ to our bodies and embrace this new chapter. If anything, I feel more myself and love my body more now, at 58 years old, than ever before.
All of a sudden I don’t mind saying to people, ‘You know what? Get out of my life. You’re not right for me.’ It’s wonderful and liberating.
If you deal with it in a healthy fashion then I think you come out the other side a better person. I’ve got so much more energy now than I ever had in my early 50s before the menopause.
The very best way that you can help yourself is to develop and sustain a positive attitude. The way you think and feel about everything will make all the difference to your experience.
Menopause. A pause while you reconsider men.
A study says owning a dog makes you 10 years younger. My first thought was to rescue two more, but I don’t want to go through menopause again.
Women are always being tested … but ultimately, each of us has to define who we are individually and then do the very best job we can to grow into it.
Confidence comes with age, and looking beautiful comes from the confidence someone has in themselves.
I think our bodies are beautiful, and I think celebrating them and being comfortable in them—no matter what age you are—is important. There shouldn’t be any kind of shame or discomfort around it.
I don’t think of getting older as looking better or worse; it’s just different. You change, and that’s okay.
For you, it’s a joke, but think about it for me, everything is going south. Menopause is one of themost significant things that happens to women. As someone who is in that phase, it is very frightening, because everything is basically out of your control.
The anticipation of a problem creates bigger problems than it really is. One has to adapt to alifestyle change to remain in the best of health. What works for one in their 30s or 40s cannot workin your 50s. You need to understand what you are getting into and make those small changes. One can have methi to regulate hormones. Zinc too. Start exercising, limit your alcohol intake if you drink and get into bed earlier.
I didn’t know what peri menopause was, I thought after a certain age we go through pre menopause up to 10 years before menopause? But did you know you could go through perimenopause up to 10 years before menopause ? It’s like the body is getting ready for menopause?
Menopause is considered as a “problem” rather than something normal every women experience.There’s a very important message behind it because what we’re saying here is that there are noexpiration dates for women.
I have a very healthy baseline, and also, well, I was experiencing hormone shifts because of infertility, having to take shots and all that,” Obama explained. “I experienced the night sweats, even in my 30s, and when you think of the other symptoms that come along, just hot flashes, I mean, I had a few before I started taking hormones.
Menopause is like autumn leaves falling; it’s a natural shedding of the old to make way for the new.
