Sexual health means so much more than a visit to your local health clinic, where you walk in with darting eyes, hoping not to bump into someone you know or quickly closing your open tabs for online pharmacies.
Sexual health includes a wide range of things that contribute to your physical, mental and emotional well-being, and today we are going to look at three surprising ways where technological advancements have translated to a direct improvement in our sex game.
In this article, we will cover topics like, how people are using VR porn videos to discover their sexual identity and overcome performance anxiety; to, increasing sexual drive and fertility using your blender.
Also, we will show you two downloadable apps that help you manage your fertility cycle with military precision, and to train your internal muscles that are key to sexual fulfilment.
VR porn and self-confidence
For those of you that don’t know, virtual reality porn is the latest phase of our naughty evolution of web-surfing. It allows users to experience porn in 3-D as though they are the person receiving the pleasure from a point-of-view perspective.
There are even toys that simulate the experience physically, so you actually feel each hand stroke in real-time.
But, why does any of this matter?
Well, users have identified a number of benefits with VR porn that just don’t exist with ordinary online videos.
For one, virtual reality provides the opportunity for sexual discovery; to find out who you are or want to be in the bedroom without involving another person.
Think about it, whenever you want to try something new, but are unsure how much you will like it, you have to share that secret with someone else, pray that they don’t judge you, hope that they are open to trying it, and wish that they are into it just as much as you are.
If any of those three don’t come off, neither will you as you are left with a sour experience. Virtual reality allows you to experience things that you have always wanted to try and lets you get a feel for the experience in private.
That way, you can be sure its what you’re into before trying to introduce a new endeavour into your relationship, or perhaps, there is no need to at all because VR porn may just fulfil your needs.
More than this, virtual reality has helped countless individuals that are not sexually confident, to confront their situational or performance anxiety with the coolest form of exposure therapy ever.
Learning about sexuality without having to think about another person’s reaction to your awkward display of no confidence is a short-cut to resetting your mental sex game and you will have fun doing it.
Your blender may be the secret boost you’ve been waiting for
We have all heard the old saying “a way to someone’s heart is through their stomach”, but did you know that 90% of your serotonin is actually produced in your gut?
Why does this matter?
Well, serotonin is a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in mood and blood-flow to several areas of the body, including your fun parts, so if you don’t look after your gut, you will pay for it with your sex-drive, so think twice before you think of turning down those leafy greens!
Modern lifestyles can make it harder to eat the right foods, but the solution can be as simple as juicing.
Fibre, particularly inulin, is considered a prebiotic because it clears out toxins from old food, which interferes with gut health and therefore libido. Our advice is to get blending to start mending and see the difference it makes to your sex drive.
We recommend introducing leafy greens, raw seeds, ginger, brazil nuts and even garlic into your blends. Try this for two weeks and notice the difference!
Digital apps that improve your sexual health
The world is moving at a fast pace with technology being at the forefront of our social development, but our bodies have stayed the same.
There are many apps out there that can improve your sexual health, so whether you’re looking to track your period or have a handy guide to contraception, there’s bound to be an app for it!
Here we will explore 2 popular apps that you could use on a regular basis:
Natural Cycles
This clever app is an FDA approved birth control app. It uses a unique algorithm that determines when you are most and least fertile by calculating data you provide on a daily basis.
Simply take your temperature in the morning, input it into the app, let the app know each time your period starts and ends, etc, and in no time it will be able to determine your fertility status and predict a window where you can enjoy sex without contraception.
The more data you provide, the better it predicts. It can also be used to plan a pregnancy, so you can take out the guesswork and keep it fun.
Perifit
This app enables users to exercise their Kegel or pelvic floor muscles using a device (must be bought separately) in the form of a game.
Each time you contract your PV muscle, a bird on the screen flies higher to avoid an oncoming obstacle. When you release, it comes down.
This makes training your pelvic floor muscle a fun and controllable exercise. You can track your progress and gauge how well your body is responding to the training.
Kegel exercises are important for stress incontinence and sexual enjoyment; they are often a sore subject after giving birth, so this clever app is a great way to get you back on track.
