Enjoyed more intimacy over the summer? You're not alone. Brits have the most sex during July* - laid-back holiday vibes and warmer, sunnier days are the perfect fuel to ignite the flames of summer lovin'. So as the seasons change and the weather cools down, you might be worried it could have the same effect on your love life. The good news? Our expert tips will help with the transition so things stay red-hot and sensual in the bedroom.

Recreate that holiday feeling

'The first step I'd recommend is to try and identify exactly what it is about summer that makes you feel more sexy or more connected to your partner,' suggests psychotherapist Eloise Skinner. If it's the buzz of socialising with your partner that leads to great sex, make sure you have events in the calendar this autumn to maintain your shared sense of fun and entertainment. Or if it's the feeling of being more relaxed, agree to downtime together - and put your phones and devices away for a short time so you can be truly present with each other.
