10 Ways to Improve Your Sex Life!

 

Sex is not rocket science, which means anyone can be good at it, and we can all keep improving our skills. In fact, getting better at sex is part of a married person’s job because good sex is part of the foundation of a good marriage. Here are 10 ways – from the basic to the more advanced – to spice up your sex life:

1. Talk to your spouse more.

In addition to talking about sex and sharing your sexual fantasies, you and your husband or wife should talk more in general. Improving your communication and speaking with one another more frequently will make you feel closer to one another. That will make you more intimate and probably less inhibited in the bedroom – or wherever you prefer to have sex.

2. Spend more time on foreplay.

Sex should be something to which you look forward. Foreplay is what gets you excited and anticipating the main event. It doesn’t have to be limited to the 15 minutes before you’d like to have sex. You could start the day with sexy text messages (think MMS with a revealing photo or an e-mail expressing how hot your husband looked as you both left for work).

3. Get better at oral sex.

Foreplay often ends with both partners performing oral sex on one another. Sometimes, people take oral sex for granted, but it can be quite pleasurable and can really put people, especially women, in the mood for sex. When performing cunnilingus on a woman, men should refrain from making jabbing movements with their tongue. Slower, softer movements are usually better. Women, while performing fellatio on a man, should of course keep their teeth away from the man’s penis and use their lips and tongue instead. Both men and women who are performing oral sex should use their hands to enhance the experience. Let your partner lead you with directions, so you know what he or she prefers.

4. Try new positions.

This might seem like an obvious tip, but you’d be surprised by the number of married people who get stuck in a sex rut by performing the same combination of positions over and over again. There is more to sex than missionary and woman on top. You might try reverse cowboy or doggy style or a move you have seen on TV – or anything Sting has talked about doing. The point is to try a new sexual position and see if you and your husband or wife enjoy it.

5. Climax at the same time.

Reaching orgasm at the same time is easier said than done. But if the woman can orgasm (it’s usually more difficult for her) and she gives her husband fair warning that it’s about to happen, he might be able to reach orgasm with her. This intensifies the moment and truly has the two of you feeling like one (not to mention feeling like porn stars). In the end, you’ll probably collapse into each others' arms from exhaustion – and have the best sleep ever.

6. Dress for sex all the time.

Wearing sexy lingerie or silk boxers (or nothing at all) underneath your work clothes or sweats even will help you feel sexy and a little naughty. This will put you in the mood for sex and throughout the day will have you anticipating the moment you finally get to have sex. It will also serve as a lovely surprise as your husband or wife undresses you. White cotton granny panties, after all, can really kill the mood.

7. Be spontaneous.

While some people have to schedule sex to make sure it happens, there is something exhilarating about having sex with your partner unexpectedly. If your husband is in the bathroom getting ready for work and you rub against him, push him against the wall, and give him a kiss and it leads to sex right then and there, you’ll both start the day with a smile. Some couples even enjoy sex in public places. But that can get risky because if you get caught, it’s against the law. Your couch or the kitchen table in the middle of the day might be better alternatives.

8. Use toys or lubricant to enhance the experience.

There’s nothing wrong with bringing a vibrator to bed with you or getting KY Jelly to make sex less painful or simply more stimulating. Some couples enjoy browsing at sex shops together to find items that would improve their sex life. Everything from chocolate body paints to whips and chains is available these days, and with your husband or wife you shouldn’t feel embarrassed. But you should discuss what kinds of things would appeal to both of you and neither of you should feel forced to participate if you’re not comfortable.

9. Indulge in quickies.

In this crazy world, you don’t always have time for marathon sex. That doesn’t mean you should go without. A great quickie on your lunch hour or just before leaving for work can leave you feeling refreshed and satisfied. Ladies, who have trouble reaching orgasm with a quickie, can still find pleasure in the sex and the closeness that they feel to their husband.

10. When in doubt, return to the basics.

There is a certain level of comfort and pleasure that comes with vanilla sex – your run of the mill married sex. You shouldn’t be ashamed if that works for you. When your sex life seems to be stuck or you feel like you’re trying too hard, you should return to the basics – the positions and foreplay that have always worked for your husband or wife and you. If it ain’t broke, after

Even great sex can always be better, and we’ve all heard about how married sex can get boring over time. So, why not try to improve your sex life? If you want to pump up the passion in your sex life, you can try communicating with your partner and improving your technique. Trying new things – from different sexual positions to using sex toys – might do the trick. But sometimes, it’s just about telling each other what you want from sex. Here are some ways to pump up the passion and have better sex now – 


Telling your partner about your fantasies and communicating what you need and want during sex is the first step to increasing intimacy. The added bonus? It makes sex that much hotter. After all, any experience that has you getting what you want is a better one. Even if you don’t always get what you want, you’ve at least expressed your desires, which will help you grow closer to your partner.


Some people like to be a little naughty. They get turned on by dirty talk, the art of describing what they would like to do to one another in a breathy, come-hither voice. There’s nothing wrong with that. Just be sure to get past the embarrassment and giggles and use those four-letter words with pride. You’ll be oozing sensuality in no time.


Some people, especially men, prefer to skip foreplay and get right to sex. But foreplay enhances sex, and it’s often important to women, who might have a harder time reaching orgasm. During a serious, pre-sex make-out session, couples might fondle one another, undress or strip for one another, and give and receive oral sex. Oral sex, in fact, is a nice compromise if one of you wants to go right to the good stuff and the other needs some foreplay to get started. Taking the time to please each other sexually is also a great way to express your love for one another and grow more intimate.

 

Top 10 Healthiest Foods


1. Acai (ah-sah'-ee)- Everyone's heard of this healthy berry by now, Oprah's promoted it as one of the top new "super foods" as well as many nutritionists in the health foods industry.

This small dark fruit of the Acai palm of South America, is often used in health drinks, and is available in liquid form by the bottle or in supplements as well at health foods stores.

The fact is, it's rich in antioxidants and increases your energy levels. You can get more done every day and look better doing it.



2. Beans - Protein's the name of the game here, whether it's Chickpeas, Navy, Lentils or Kidney - beans are very high in protein, they also contain little in the way of calories or fat.

If getting enough fiber is a problem for you, eating healthy portions of beans every day promotes a healthy digestive tract and reduces many cancers, and its cholesterol free!



3. Allium Foods - Another of the healthiest foods includes leeks, shallots garlic, and onions. Garlic has long been known for its cholesterol lowering capabilities. Allium vegetables also help guard the body against the risk of many ailments, including cancer.

They can prevent blood clots and lower blood pressure. Eating these power packed vegetables in their natural state, (especially garlic) can increase their health benefits, but don't forget the breath mint



4. Oats - Oatmeal has always been a popular breakfast food, and in recent years is being recognized as one of the true healthiest foods.

We've all seen the commercials for Cheerio's - true story. The whole grain oats do indeed help lower blood cholesterol.

It's a filling grain that also provides you with much needed fiber to keep your blood sugar constant and your appetite at bay.



5. Fruits - "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" - Once again, another true story. Fruits are just packed with antioxidants such as Vitamins C and A. These antioxidants fight free radical damage in the body, and help reduce the risk of many cancers.

The antioxidants in fruit also boost the body's immune system and help fight the effects of aging in the body.

Grapes and blueberries have the highest amount of these antioxidants, and choosing an array of fruits in a variety of colors for maximum health, are a real good idea …and a tasty one too!



6. Peppers - Peppers contain antioxidants as well, like beta-carotene and Vitamin C. All peppers also contain a substance known as capsaicin.

Capsaicin has anti-inflammatory properties, is a pain reliever, and can lower the risk of many cancers, as well as heart disease.
They're great in salads; salsa and stuffed peppers are a personal favorite of my family



7. Yogurt - The low-fat variety is best. Yogurt contains calcium, Vitamin B, and has 50% more protein than milk. If you don't care for milk, yogurt is a great alternative to get the calcium you need to build strong bones and pretty white teeth.

Live yogurt also contains friendly bacteria to help promote a healthy digestive system. (Seemed pretty friendly to me)



8. Salmon - Eating the healthiest foods that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, like salmon, can help you to reduce the risk of heart disease and many other health conditions, such as atherosclerosis. (Wild salmon, not farm-raised, for optimal heart healthy eating)

While it is true that salmon is a fatty fish, it contains good fats that have been proven to improve the health of adults, as well as children.

Salmon is one of the richest, healthiest foods on the planet in regard to protein. Any bodybuilder will tell you, protein is a necessity for strength training and building muscle and it helps to deter muscle loss as we age.

-Five ounces of salmon contains 42 grams of protein.
The USDA recommends that men get 56 grams and women get 46 grams of protein every day



9. Flax seed - Like salmon, flax seed contains omega-3 fatty acids. This health food also contains omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids as well. This gives you a lot of power in the fight against high cholesterol, heart disease and diabetes.

Grinding-up flax seed is a great way to add it to fruit smoothies.
You can also sprinkle it in yogurt, have it with cereal or add it to your favorite pancake recipe, to name just a few ideas, or you can always supplement of course.



10. Nuts and seeds - Nuts are high in fat but fortunately for us, those fats once again, are the good kind. Peanuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, walnuts and pistachios are all providers of good fats with a fair amount of protein to boot.

Like flax seed, crush them up and use them as a coating, instead of those higher carb breadcrumbs. Seeds and nuts also help to lower your cholesterol.

Eat them right out of the shell (no additives) for a healthy snack, or eat the shell and all if you like, as with sunflower seeds.

Do Your Sleeping Habits Make You Gain Weight?

Recently Scientists have discovered that how much you sleep may affect your appetite. As if we didn’t have enough stacked against us now our sleeping habits can make us fat too? What’s next?

There are these hormones we all have called leptin and ghrelin that affect our appetites. They work together in a sort of checks and balances sort of way. Ghrelin which is produced in the gastrointestinal track stimulates appetite, while leptin produced in fat cells sends a signal to the brain when you are full.

When You don’t get enough sleep it decreases the leptin levels which will cause you to feel hungry and less satisfied when you eat causing you to eat more. Lack of sleep also causes the ghrelin levels to rise which stimulates your appetite causing you to feel hungry.

Have you ever had a sleepless night and the next day no matter what you eat or how much you can’t seem to get full? That is the leptin and ghrelin at work. What’s even worse in some studies the types of food you crave after not getting enough sleep are the ones high in carbohydrates and fat. And studies have also shown that those who slept less weighed more! If there were ever a reason to get your full 8 hours of peaceful sleep this would be it!

There was a study done at the University of Chicago. The doctors measured the leptin and ghrelin levels in 12 healthy men. They also noted their hunger and appetite levels. During the study the men were subjected to 2 days sleep deprivation followed by 2 days extended sleep. During the time of the deprivation the leptin levels went down and the ghrelin levels went up. The men’s appetites not only increased but the desire for high carbohydrate calorie dense foods went up by 45%!

In a study at Stanford University 1,000 volunteers reported how many hours of sleep they were getting each night. Doctors then measured their leptin and ghrelin levels as well as tracked their weight. The result was those who slept less than 8 hours not only had lower levels of leptin and higher levels of ghrelin but also had increased levels of body fat.

What’s more it’s not only how much sleep we are getting a night but the quality of sleep matters also. Millions of people have some type of sleep disorder and do not get the required amount and type of sleep we need to be healthy and now I suppose thin too. So if you have trouble getting to sleep, wake up off and on throughout the night or simply can’t sleep your leptin levels are going down and ghrelin levels are going up all the time causing you to want to eat more and eat the high carbohydrate high calorie foods that make us fat.

What is interesting though is people with sleep apnea do not have the usual low leptin levels associated with being overweight. In fact when their apnea is treated leptin levels drop and somehow that helps them lose weight.

Maybe it’s a simple as when you are well rested you feel better, move more, and eat better. Doctors are still unsure why people with sleep apnea are so different than everyone else. At this point all the answers are not clear but what is clear is getting a peaceful night’s sleep of 8 hours (as a rule) on a regular basis will benefit your Health and Overall Well Being in So many ways!

So if you need a little help there are things you can do to help get that good night’s sleep!

Ten Steps to a Good Night’s Sleep

Sleep - are you getting enough? For some people, enough is four to six hours. Other people just don't feel right with less than eight hours. People need more or less sleep at different phases in their life. Women may need more or less sleep at different phases of the month.

The simplest way to tell if you're getting enough is by noticing every morning - do you feel rested? Do you wake up without an alarm clock and feel ready to get right out of bed and start your day?

Not getting enough sleep is one of the most direct ways that we self-sabotage our success and well-being. When we are better rested we not only feel better, but are calmer, smarter, more rational, and nicer to be around and we look better. Why wouldn't we choose to have that every day??

1. Set the Stage - turn off the computer and television at least one hour before you'd like to fall asleep, and turn on some music that you find relaxing. Test what your stereo system will do when the recording is finished - does it SNAP! Or does it "wrrrr" - this will make a difference as you're drifting off. My CD player makes a very soft "wrrrr" noise (though I honestly can't remember the last time I was still awake when the CD was over).

2. Music without words - words can provoke and direct your thoughts more than instrumental music or pure vocal sounds.

3. Music with natural "breaths" - music where the soloist takes natural pauses to breathe can help you to slow down your own breath - try flute, other wind instruments or voice (either with no words or words in a language you don't understand).

4. A good book - For bedtime reading, try to stay away from material that gets you thinking about things you deal with during the day. Magazines or stories that distract you from your own life may help you to drift into sleep.

5. Imagery - If you find that your mind is racing when you are trying to sleep, picture a viewpoint where you're traveling down a road. See your thoughts as signposts that you're passing. Concentrate on letting them pass right by.

6. Progressive muscle relaxation - Imagine that a ball of light is traveling along your body, beginning at the top of your head, going down to the tips of your toes, and then coming up again. As it passes your muscles, they fill with light and relax.

7. Take a nap - If your sleep has been interrupted or there've been unavoidable late nights, an afternoon nap can help you catch up. Experts advise that naps should be taken earlier in the afternoon, rather than later, and that we should keep them to 30 minutes or less. This will avoid disrupting your sleep at night.

8. Lavender Bath - Take a hot bath and add a couple of drops of lavender oil. Lavender has naturally occurring relaxing properties.

9. Chamomile Tea - Calms the nervous system and helps to promote restful sleep.

10. Take 500 mg Calcium with 250 mg Magnesium at bedtime - The calcium has a calming effect, and the magnesium works along with it.

The advice and information in this article is not meant to replace medical advice. If you suspect you have a serious sleeping problem such as sleep apnea, or if you experience insomnia or extreme fatigue, please consult a healthcare professional.
