Would you like to have more sexual stamina?

Well, you’re not alone… in fact, it’s perfectly normal to aspire to a more satisfying sex life than the one you currently have. After all, sex is an escape from the day-to-day difficulties we all face. Finding ways to do it much better can be EXTREMELY rewarding.

Sexual stamina is the fuel for fun in your bedroom, and most people (just like you) are looking to make the fun last MUCH longer.

It is also quite common for many people to search for easy answers and quick shortcuts without finding out what factors really determine our stamina in bed. This is a big mistake.

So before you rush to buy the latest fad that promises a 400% increase in sexual stamina, check out some of the natural ways to improve your longevity in bed. I’m listing some of the best for you here:

• Stop obsessing: Seriously, this is not an attempt to bypass the problem. More often than not it is the obsession with stamina that causes your mind to sabotage the entire sexual experience by letting the fear of coming up short take over.

So while it’s not harmful to reflect on sexual stamina from time to time, spending hours thinking about it will only lower your sexual confidence and make the problem worse.

• Focus on pleasure: Although this applies more to men, even women can benefit from this. This whole performance issue, while important, is hyped up by vendors of sexual enhancement products and has somehow filled our minds with doubt.

Sex is one of the most pleasurable experiences. So as long as you and your partner find a pleasurable experience, there’s no need to worry too much about the clock and how long you’ve been doing it for.

• Exercise: There’s no need to be intimidated and conjure up images of Mr. and Miss Universe as your goal. All you need to do is exercise regularly without overdoing it.

Exercising benefits you in two ways: it increases your physical strength and stamina, and it also releases endorphins (a chemical in the brain) that keep you in a positive frame of mind… which is extremely important for a good sexual experience.

So when you exercise, you’ll not only look good, but you’ll also feel good about yourself.

• Relax and breathe: Most of today’s men and women are plagued with stress. And… one of the common side effects of stress is decreased sexual drive and reduced libido.

If you want to increase your sexual stamina, you need to de-stress. It would be good for you to learn some relaxing techniques like yoga and meditation. These techniques teach you how to focus on your breath and use it to fully relax your body.

Many people who have used these techniques say that they not only increase their sexual stamina but also make the experience more pleasurable.

• Sleep well: You may be surprised to learn that many of us have reduced sexual powers because we don’t get enough sleep. Therefore, it is important for a healthy sex life that you get enough rest and sleep (at least 7-8 hours a night).

Make sure you have a regular bedtime and sleep peacefully every day. A word of caution: Getting more sleep can also be detrimental to your sexual stamina and tire out your body.

• Eat well: There are foods that increase our resistance naturally and then there are those that negatively affect it.

Stay away from fried and processed foods as much as possible, especially a few hours before having sex. On the other hand, make the following foods part of your diet:

• Proteins: Excellent food for sexual stamina, but don’t eat too much. – Chicken, lean beef, nuts, lentils and soy.
• Foods rich in vitamin B: They reduce stress and elevate mood. It can be taken as a supplement or in Eggs (B5 and B6), Brown Rice (B1) and Yogurt (B3)
• Seafood: Improves hormonal levels, natural aphrodisiac and improves blood circulation.
