Viagra Sex Alternatives : Yoga Can Increase Your Sex Drive

Few yogis practice abstinence as part of their yoga and many yogic lineages are tantric.  Tantric principles acknowledge the body as a divine, pivotal part of your spirituality. All bodily functions are acknowledged and respected, not hidden. Sex is a natural expression of love and energy, but there are lots of people in Western societies who have a wide array of issues around sex. 

If a person has a low sex drive there is bound to be some affect on self-esteem.  People with a healthy, active sex life are shown to have healthier hearts and reproductive organs, and lower instances of psychological issues.  Yoga can play a significant role in enhancing sexual vitality and control.

Here are a few yoga routines known to increase sexual energy and control:

Mulabhanda (Core lift) – enhances circulation to perineum as well as enhances control of musculature around the sexual organs.

Eka Pada Raja Kapotasana (One Legged King's Pigeon) – This routine, opens the hips, relieves tightness and pain in the hips and low back, enhances circulation to pelvis

Supta Matsyendrasana (Knee Down Twist) – It stretches the spine, opens the hips, relaxes and releases tension in abdomen.

Yoga Sex

Yoga sex refers to how you can maximize your sex life with the help of yoga, not using specific yoga sex positions.  When you make a conscious effort to improve your spiritual and physical self, with the assistance of yoga or other routines, you will have a better sex life.

Contrary to the opinion of many people, true yoga practitioners are not against the pleasures of sex; yoga and sex do go together. Suppression and denial of yoga sex improvements can lead only to physical upsets and mental harm.

The yogis, who teach that man's supreme objective is self-realization, are aware that this realization cannot be wholly achieved except through union with woman; the man’s other half. Self-realization must not be equated with self-indulgence. Yoga sex teaches that much of our sex drive must be sublimated, or channelled into other life constructive drives.

Various yoga sex exercises sublimate a restless sex urge while others awaken a sluggish body. If you do yoga, restlessness takes the form of positive, creative energy, which may then be properly used instead of merely bringing hassles.

In addition, lack of feeling in one's mate, and quite often the free-floating hostility arising out of such an emotional touch, slowly gives rise to a warmer, more giving attitude.
