You can find your zen place

It might be challenging to fully appreciate being intimate with someone else when your mental state isn't comfortable. To be completely content with your sexual life and yourself, you often need to be mentally clear. Yoga has been shown to be effective in treating a wide range of psychological and physiological issues, including high blood pressure, anxiety, and depression. After 60 minutes of dimly lit candles, a soothing instructor's voice, and stretching out those sore muscles, you can't help but feel like a brand new, and much more relaxed person.

We’re often in our heads during sex, wondering how we look, how we sound, how early we have to wake up, and other nagging thoughts that pull us out of the moment. While our concentration should be on the present moment, it often inevitably drifts to the other thoughts in our brain. Yoga teaches us to pull our awareness from our thoughts to our bodies through breathwork and mindfulness techniques. Slow, focused movements inspire us to pay closer attention to each body part and muscle group, including the muscles used for orgasmic contraction.

Keep in mind that mindfulness is the art of gently focussing the mind, not the discipline of emptying the mind. The secret to experiencing orgasms that last longer and are more intense is to become more conscious of your senses and how your body reacts to stimulation.
