Are you married? Partnered up? Having fun dating? Do you wish there was a way to add some extra ‘oh’ to your ‘mojo’? Then it’s time to add a little extra zing to your ting with our sensual, seductive, salacious tips!
In life there will always be (and should always be) room to help your sensuality blossom. Sex and our sense of desire are naturally forever changing: swirling, yearning, waning, leading, longing. We can be tired one moment, and deeply turned on the next – nothing is certain when it comes to sensuality because it is so heavily linked to emotion. This can be both challenging, and exciting. It means that you might be low on desire and literally feel like a lump one day, but a few softly whispered words, a waft of heady fragrance, or even a simple night of laughter could revitalise how you feel about yourself and your partner.
Squeezing some fresh, exciting juice onto your love life is always a good idea, whether it’s a safe salad, spicy paella or even a fruity smoothie.
Like adding dark chocolate to a chilli – it’s already hot and spicy, but then you throw somethingsilky, smooth and decadent into the mix and suddenly it has this extra level of rich, sexy flavour.
In these five tips below, we’re going to give you a few helpful hints to help you add some extra cream to your banana split:
1. Switch It Up
Consider doing something different together, pushing you out of your comfort zone, and into the naughty zone. Perhaps you could do a couples massaging course and learn how to use sexy oils to massage away each others knots and tight spots. You might want to do something like a dance class, or adrenaline focused like rock climbing or even sky diving. If you’re stuck in a rut, there’s no room for anything new to get your hearts racing again. Experience something new together. Even if you both hate it, you’ll have something to giggle about together afterwards.
2. Take the Pressure Off and Connect
Sometimes, we can be so busy, so stressed, so utterly exhausted by life (job’s, friends, kids, hobbies) that any chance of sex becomes little more than a wistful daydream between commutes. When this happens, we can feel like any time we spend together we simply must be having sex, just so that box is ticked and we can move on to the next ‘task’. Quickly the need to ‘get sex out of the way’ means it becomes a chore, which is not sexy. Sometimes, we need to take a little time out to take the focus off sex, to allow our brains and bodies to breath, enabling them to be open to sex again without the pressure, or restrictions imposed by everyday life.
Jasmine candles are known for their aphrodisiac properties
Consider setting up a lovely, relaxing scene, with some jasmine scented candles, a bubble bath or, a little blanket den on the floor, some music you both love in the background, a cold drink in hand – whatever it takes to help you both simmer down. When was the last time you both just chatted about interesting things, not things that needed to get done? With an agreement to take sex off the cards completely, you should both feel free to just enjoy each other. If it works and you both get your mojo back, remember the rule was no sex, nobody put a ban on touching….
3. Food for the Soul
Food can be very, very sexy. To awaken sexy feelings from within, make food for your loved one that is known to get the pulse racing. Certain vitamins and minerals in food are known to help increase blood flow, libido and literally get the heart racing – all of which are extremely helpful with the physical aspects of love. Avocados and figs are great for the heart, almonds are thought to help increase passion and stamina, dark chocolate has methylxanthines which are fabulous for the libido, and rocket is wonderful for blocking nasty contaminants that dampen our sex drive – so there’s a few key ingredients to get you inspired.
Alternatively, fun with food can be just as sexy, regardless of what it is. Why not feed your loved one while they are blindfolded so they have to focus on the taste, smell and texture of the food. A selection of foods with different flavors, textures and smells like strawberries, melted chocolate, marshmallows and caramel will work well. Having a blindfold on will ensure other senses are boosted. Be prepared to get messy, and care very little about the cleaning up…
4. Scentsual Healing
Scents can be very sexual, with certain smells evoking strong emotions and feelings within us. Rose, sandalwood and ylang ylang are all popular sexy scents, but Jasmine is most definitely the sexiest fragrance. It has a universal label as an aphrodisiac and with its deep, sweet, enchanting smell, it’s really no surprise. Use it in massage oils, dab some onto your underwear, or place a candle in the bedroom to evoke intense feelings of yearning and excitement.

5. Take a Trip Down Memory Lane
Many people look to new experiences or objects as inspiration for a libido boost, when often (and as most romantic movies show us) all we need is usually what we had all along. Consider setting up a trip down memory lane, to bring back the fire you began with, and to encourage that flame to burn bright again.
What about playing the music that was on in the background the first time you made love? You could spritz yourself with the musky vanilla fragrance he went wild for when you first met. Maybe you could have a little dance in the kitchen to that song you kissed passionately to on that special holiday you both still smile about. You could both go out to the restaurant you went to on your first date. No matter what you are wearing, what makeup you have on, no matter what his hair is like, how romantic he has been, no matter what the setting, sometimes all you need to spice things up, is to be reminded of the times when you couldn’t keep you hands off each other. All you really need is each other, and it is important to remember that.
