How to Reboot Your Libido and Get Your Groove Back Pronto
If you’ve been feeling a little (or a lot) less randy than usual lately, you’re not alone. You’re in seriously good company. One out of every three women say they sometimes aren’t in the mood to get down and dirty as often. Sometimes, that lack of libidinous drive has an identifiable cause (e.g., family drama, recent illness, or work stress), but other times, it’s something that just happens.
Of course, you’re well within your rights to simply wait things out when you feel this way, but you don’t have to unless you want to. Here, we’ll go over a few tried and true tips for kickstarting your libido and getting back to being your usual sexy self.
Relationship Damage Control
Naturally, if you’re in a relationship, you don’t want to let a sexual dry spell drag on too long. Sex is an important part of how couples stay connected, but it can be hard to know where to start when it comes to addressing a libido issue. Start with the following.
Talk It Out
Conversation is always a good place to begin when it comes to anything that might affect your partner or relationship, a sex drive low point included. Simply talk to them about what’s going on, so they know it’s not about them. If there’s something they can do to help you get back on track, let them know, but just making sure they’re in the loop can help immensely.
Date Nights
When you’ve been with someone a while, it goes without saying that life can take precedence over romance a lot of the time. If that’s been the case more often than not lately, it’s probably not helping your sex drive. Make some plans to get out of the house and go on a bona fide date with your beloved sometime soon. It may be just what you need to unwind and get back into the swing of things.
Try Some New Moves
Most couples have a way of simply falling back on what works after a while, and a low libido could be a sign it’s time to switch things up. Consider it the perfect excuse to think outside the box and get a little naughtier than usual. Take turns trading fantasies some evening or look through your copy of the Kama Sutra together for inspiration. Try some role playing on for size or bring one of your favorite sex toys into the bedroom to experiment with together. Get as creative as you like!
Sexual Self-Care
It’s important to make sure you’re taking proper care of yourself when it comes to rebooting your libido as well. The following suggestions will ensure you’re feeling your oats again in no time, both in and out of the bedroom.
Hit the Gym
Exercise is the answer to a lot of potential body issues, and a low sex drive is no exception. Regular workouts help keep us in peak physical condition on every level. They help release endorphins and keep hormone levels regulated. Plus, exercise builds strength, stamina, and confidence – all terrific assets to have in your corner when it comes to your bedroom game. Make sure to support your workouts with a healthy, balanced diet for best results.
Get a Checkup
Hormonal imbalances, chronic conditions, and even certain medications can all contribute to potential issues with female libido. If there’s a chance this could be the case for you, it never hurts to make an appointment with your doctor to discuss things and make sure your system is in good working order. He or she may have some helpful insight into how you can get back on track or may want to make some adjustments to your ongoing treatment plan.
Schedule Some Solo Time
Masturbating may seem like it would be counterproductive if you’re already struggling with getting into the mood often enough, but actually the opposite is true. The more orgasms you’re having, the more you’ll want to have, especially once your body gets used to having that release on the regular again. Plus, there’s a lot less pressure and performance anxiety to worry about when it’s just you and your trusty vibrator. Consider investing in a couple of new goodies for your personal toy chest to make it even more fun for yourself.
At the end of the day, sexual dry spells and libido issues happen to the best of us from time to time, but we don’t have to live life at their mercy or let them affect our relationships. Do what you can to get things back on track for sure, but also make sure to be patient with yourself. You’ll be back where you want to be before you know it.
