Picture this: You just got home after a long day at work, and you’re looking forward to snuggling up with your better half for a sexy night in. Though your mind is prepared to do all the things you’ve been thinking about the entire day, your body says otherwise, and you just can’t get into the mood! The reality is, stress and hormonal changes play a huge factor in your sex drive, especially for working gals! And unfortunately, getting in the mood for sex isn’t as easy as wanting to be in the mood for sex. That’s why we all need to learn how to get horny to get that stress-relieving orgasm when our vagina gives us the dry-treatment.
So here are some quick ways to get yourself riled up and ready for S.E.X!
Take A Bath
Sometimes, taking a bath can do more than just clean your body. It’s the easiest way to relax and destress your body, which is essential for any arousing activities. Sink into the bathtub (if you have one), and loosen up your muscles. Lay under the faucet for some pressure on your sensitive areas to heighten your arousal, or utilize the shower head for an extra sensual bath time. Getting some much needed ‘me time’ will help you get in the mood.
Watch Porn
You probably saw this one cumming, right? If you’re a visual learner, or someone who indulges in voyeurism, watch some porn to get yourself into the mood. However, if porn gives you an icky feeling, or you find some of the visuals quite dehumanizing, you should definitely opt for femme-produced porn that caters to a female audience.
Nipple Play
Before you dive into masturbation or sex, try focusing on other erogenous zones other than your genitals. In fact, stimulating your nipples can cause your body to release oxytocin, a hormone related to care and bonding, which promotes attachment and reduces anxiety. This includes biting, sucking, touching or rubbing the nipples.
Reading Erotica
Sometimes our minds create the best visuals. There are endless ways to read erotic content on the internet, whether it’s Twitter, NSFW subreddits, or erotica websites. And when you’re wetter than a rainforest, start touching yourself (if you haven’t already). Consistency is key when it comes to keeping in tune with your desires.
Think About Sexy Past Experiences
Chances are, you’ve had at least one unforgettable sex experience that you can think about when you wanna make yourself horny. Whether it’s when you and your partner got nasty in public or during a romantic night in, reminiscing about past experiences can help align your body with your dirty, dirty mind.
