Although it seems that sexuality in the 2.0 era is free of taboos, reality is different. There are some forbidden topics such as female masturbation, for example; many claim that they have never explored their bodies, let alone felt pleasure when touching themselves.
Another myth is that masturbation or self-exploration is a practice only for those who are single and that is false, because married people also like to enjoy their bodies not only as a couple, but also alone.
According to psychologist and sexologist Elena Crespi: “Masturbation is a unique experience every time, but in addition to the pleasure itself it has other great benefits and countless advantages,” she says.
Among the advantages pointed out by the expert are:
Improve your sex life: Either as a couple, or alone, it is very important to know what area of your body you like to touch and stimulate.
No stress: Masturbation makes you reach a state of relaxation due to the endorphins that are released.
More is more: Climax more often; the more you do it, the more control you have over when and how you reach orgasm.
Self-knowledge: Orgasms will be much more intense, and self-knowledge will help you achieve more and better orgasms.
Improved pelvic floor: Exercising the pelvic floor and its musculature will allow for better orgasms.
Sweet dreams: After a few minutes of stimulation, you will have a restful sleep. A pleasant way to fall asleep.
Analgesic: For those women who suffer from menstrual cramps, it is an alternative to relieve them.
Today I will leave you the #sinrecato challenge of practicing 8 exercises of self-exploration alone or with your partner:
1- Mirror, Mirror: This first exercise will allow you to be more aware of your pleasure, your needs and preferences, so do not hesitate to stimulate yourself in front of the mirror and let yourself be carried away by this pleasurable experience.
This technique will allow you to get to know the parts of the vulva and observe step by step how the clitoris or the lips contract when stimulated with your hand or with a vibrator.
2- Massage with 2 or 4 hands: Touch your body calmly, take your time and give yourself a massage with an oil of your choice, from head to toe or the other way around and leave the best for last.
This exercise, besides exciting you, will also improve your self-esteem and that connection with your body and sexuality that is sometimes lost. If you have a partner, allow them to do it so that together you can enjoy the moment.
3- Play 30 seconds: The third exercise consists of caressing your vulva, vaginal lips and clitoris with different movements. The idea is to innovate and the rule is that you cannot stimulate the same area in the same way for more than 30 seconds.
4- Playing around: Sometimes, orgasm becomes the main goal of sexual intercourse and obsessing over the idea of reaching it can have the opposite effect.
The idea of this exercise is that, if you are alone, do not stimulate the clitoris directly, but rather make a tour of all the areas and leave it for the end; lengthen the pleasure and thus you will be able to experience other sensations.
5- It is recommended to use lubricant: If you are with your partner, tell them to do the same, do not go to the click…toris directly.
6- Blindfolded eyes: This exercise consists of covering your eyes with a tie or a silk scarf or whatever you have at your fingertips. It is well said that when one sense is missing, the others are potentiated.
Blindly touching your body is a way of not judging it and experiencing new sensations. You can invite your partner to enjoy the show.
7- Self bondage: The idea is to tie your wrists when you are a little excited and find a way to stimulate yourself, it can be with a pillow or a rolled towel or any other toy that you have prepared.
If you have an accomplice for this exercise, invite them to join you or help you stimulate yourself. Use all your imagination.
8- Double pleasure: This is an exploration exercise. It is not so important that you are a fan of anal sex, the idea is to lightly stimulate the anus while you stimulate the clitoris, vulva and vagina, multiplying the pleasure.
You could use an anal plug or a small vibrating bullet or your own fingers. Lubricant is recommended for a smoother experience.
9- Wish list: This last exercise is summarized in sexual self-knowledge. The idea is to write a list of 5 points: the first one is about what you like the most when it comes to stimulating yourself, the second one is about what you discovered that you like, the third one is what you do not like or what feels neutral. Point 4 is about things you would not do and point 5 is about those things you have not tried and are curious to do.
Innovating in stimulation is very important for enjoyment. It should not always be similar, in the same place or time, it is almost a requirement that you explore new practices that allow you to experience new sensations. The possibilities are endless, the limit is in your mind.
In this regard, the sexologist says: “When the brain gets used to something, it stops providing the same stimuli, and you can end up depending on doing it in a certain way to reach orgasm. That is why innovating is vital to enjoy 100 percent of your body”.
Rediscover your body and allow yourself to know and enjoy it. Remember that there are no limits to pleasure.
