Prepare For An Easy O

Keep the vibe going all day for a wild, wild night.

- Julie Vadnal

When clothes are coming off at lightning speed, it can be hard to get your libido firing at the same pace as your partner’s. For women, arousal is a more sequential process that starts in your mind, and it takes time to bring your body on board. But know this: a single sexy thought can be enough to send ‘get ready!’ signals to your brain and nether regions, prompting desire and increasing vaginal lubrication, says US-based gyno Dr Elizabeth Poynor. Tap into this effect from the minute your alarm goes off, and your body will be screaming for a release by sundown.

LATHER UP

In the shower, use a wash containing an essential oil that primes you for getting down. For instance, studies show that lavender oil can lower stress (a total O-blocker), and jasmine oil can stimulate your entire body. Rub it on your skin using your hands to activate feel-good oxytocin. (We like Original Source Skin Quench Pineapple & Coconut Oil, amazon. in, `375, for its delicious-smelling extracts.)
