Mind-blowing sex may seem like an extraordinary benefit of meditation, but let’s state that mindfulness may do much more for you than Viagra in the room.
For too long, meditation has been linked with asceticism and priests, which is why it has taken us this long to get about to exploring its effects on sex.
Let’s look at the top five ways meditation can change your sex life:
1. Meditation provides you deep rest, which means more extra energy for sex.
According to a new study by the National Sleep Foundation, about one in every four married or cohabitation Americans claim they’re so sleep-deprived that they’re usually too tired to have sex.
When you meditate, you give your body rest that is deeper than sleep, which helps you feel more awake afterward. This start of energy may be just what you need after work to strengthen you for adult playtime.
2. Meditation reduces stress, which means more real orgasms.
Elevated cortisol levels can prevent female orgasm and cause Erectile Dysfunction. According to a recent study, women whose cortisol levels pass a certain amount can become physically incapable of orgasm. Think about it: do you feel excited when you are stressed out? Probably not.
There is a reason why almost every culture since the beginning of time has some sort of mating routine before sex. The extra relaxed you are going into the act itself, the more likely you are to enjoy it and therefore climax.
3. Meditation gives you more present and less distracted.
Most of us have an overdeveloped left-brain. The left brain’s work is to review the past and describe the future. This can keep us caught in a past/ future thought cycle and rob us of the strength to be fully present in the right now, which is the only time an orgasm can happen.
The healthy brain is in charge of present time awareness, and this is the part of the brain that meditation takes to the gym. The longer we meditate, the more brain cohesion and neuroplasticity we create which balances the right and left hemispheres of the brain.
So the result of this is more attention, awareness, and computing power for the task at the palm. And depending on what you and your spouse(s) are into it may take quite a few hands. Nobody wants a troubled lover.
4. Meditation helps you end looking to your partner to fulfill you.
If you do not have a Meditation Exercise or a means by which to reach that happiness, then you tend to look externally for fulfillment. If you are looking to your partner to “fill you up” spiritually or physically, then you will always be disappointed as zero external can give you access to your pleasure. Peace is an inside job. If you are 80% fulfilled, then the relationship will be a place to deliver that satisfaction, not somewhere to get the missing 20%.
5. Meditation might make your partner think you are psychic.
If you haven’t learned about mirror neurons yet, get ready. Scientists say that mirror neurons are going to do for psychology what DNA did for biology. Think of mirror neurons like little boomerangs released from your brain that go and dance with your lover’s mirror neurons and then report back. Mirror neurons allow you to “intuit” what your spouse is feeling. They are why you cringe if you watch someone getting hurt. Mirror neurons are one of the reasons porn is a billion dollar industry. Merely watching someone else being pleasured can create pleasure in your brain.
Well, get this: Meditation increases mirror neuron functioning. This fact joined with the fact that you’ll be more relaxed and present, will probably mean you’ll be a far more natural and comfortable partner.
So before you reach for the little Blue Pill, why not resolve to learn a meditation practice? I suggest getting a technique that was made for people with busy minds and lives instead of a style made for monks. (I also recommend getting real training from a teacher you respect before you decide if you like meditation or not). With the right technique (and the right teacher), it really can be easy — and oh so fun.
