Self-Satisfaction: The Journey From Joy To Pleasure

Who says you need a partner to satisfy your sexual needs? As Alanna Vagianos puts it, “Party for one is still a party.” Do you need love? Do you need orgasm? Do you need to release that sexual tension? You have got yourself, baby! So, give yourself a little lone time in bed, and set yourself freely on the journey of self-satisfaction. Masturbation has many known health benefits that make it all the more desirable for both men and women.

THE METHODS AND BENEFITS

Masturbation is a great and pleasurable way to release pent-up sexual energy. In fact, solo play is a healthy and safe way not only to excite and turn yourself on, but also to relieve stress, improve your sleep, and release built-up sexual tension. This makes self-satisfaction the only way of sexual pleasure that has infinite health benefits and absolutely no downsides at all.

Apart from that, a recent study found that people who masturbate frequently also tend to have more sex! The idea here is that masturbation involves thinking about sex more often, meaning that you’re priming your body and mind for sexual intimacy, thereby making it more likely that you’ll actually end up having intercourse, according to Between Us Clinic’s clinical psychologist Daniel Sher.

So, go ahead and explore your sexuality. Give yourself that necessary self-love, become comfortable with your body, and make yourself aware of your sexual trigger points and best arousal techniques. This kind of self-awareness will definitely help you to communicate better with your partner on what you like and what you don’t in bed. This adds better intimacy with your partner and better sex life in the long list of benefits of masturbation.

Then what are the best ways to do it with you? Well, begin by turning down the lights, first. Try to set that erotic mood. Play yourself an erotic video or start reading erotica. Then slowly tease yourself before going for the main act. The key is to stay relaxed and leave the worries behind. Keep moving your body to find what positions pleasure you the most. Sometimes, it is not easy for people to attain sexual pleasure when they stroke themselves; it is especially true for first-timers and beginners. They must try slowing it down a little bit. Stroke other erogenous zones such as inner thighs, nipples, hips and navel.
