3 Ways To Improve Your Married Sex Life

Insights:  3 Ways To Improve Your Married Sex Life 

Most couples say they want a better sex life. Yet, most couples don’t do anything about it. They stay in the same routine, which is not necessarily bad, but could their sex life be better? Let’s look at 3 things that will help.

Change Things Up: Try new things or rekindle old ones in your sex life. This is a great way to keep things exciting and prevent boredom. You can experiment with new positions. Most couples settle into two or three positions they like best over the course of their marriage but trying something new can be fun. A Celebration of Sex is a great book to help you talk about new ideas together. Sometimes just changing locations can add a spark to your sex life. What about making a pallet for the two of you somewhere in your home? Get creative together. Talk about things you would like to try and see what you agree on. Changing things up gets the conversation about sex started, and that is a really good thing. What will you change up?

Foreplay: Foreplay is an essential part of sex. Taking the time to explore each other's bodies and build anticipation can lead to more intense orgasms and a more satisfying experience. I think we all know this but foreplay takes time and energy and we often just seem to get lazy. I know you cannot have a lot of foreplay every time you have sex, but make those times the exception and not the rule. Add things like music, candles, showers or baths together. Talk about what you like. Spending that extra time will make a difference. Why not make a commitment to setting aside the time to develop foreplay? 

Quality Time: Spending quality time together outside the bedroom can improve your sex life. Couples can engage in activities they both enjoy, share experiences, and strengthen their emotional connection, which can lead to more intimate and satisfying sex. Did you ever think about outside activities that way? Quality time together connects us and in my opinion, the more connected we are the better our sex lives will be. Will you talk about activities can you enjoy together this week?

Changing things up, working on foreplay, and enjoying an activity together will make your sex life better.
