Sex and the Healthy Body


An active sex life offers many healthy benefits for a long and happy life. Like most mammals and other creatures, humans were created to enjoy intercourse. Why we struggle so much with this natural part of our lives is so complicated that it can and has filled volumes of books.

Guilt, confusion, inexperience and embarrassment are obstacles that make enjoying sexual intercourse difficult for many women. But if you are married and physically capable, sex should be a regular and sacred part of your union. It can bring a couple closer together or the lack of it can destroy a marriage over time.

Many times, women allow every other task and responsibility to take precedence over making love to their spouse. If you are one of those women, keep in mind that while it is acceptable to outsource all of your other tasks, sex is the one thing you don't want someone else delving out to your man. Honestly, if your budget allows for it, you can hire someone to cook, clean, baby-sit and run errands, but when it comes to making love, that's one activity you want to take care of yourself.

Women usually need to feel loved and appreciated before getting in the mood for love- making. Men tend to be more visual, getting stimulated by the sight of a woman in sexy lingerie or something as different as seeing his lover wearing a different hairstyle of wig. This type of foreplay can heighten the anticipation and lead to a more satisfying sexual relationship.

Like women's fitness and exercise, sex burns calories and keeps your body flexible and healthy. Coupled with a balanced diet of protein, vitamins and nutrients and accompanied by a regular exercise program, sexual intercourse can improve your health and lead to a stronger heart. Sex is a form of regular exercise that raises the heart's rate. An effective cardio activity, women should consider participating in sexual intercourse at least three times a week if not more often.

Sex can help you to lose weight. During 30 minutes of lovemaking, it is possible to burn up to 100 calories. While that might not seem like a lot, if you multiply that by 3 times per week, you've burned 300 calories by just having fun! Plus, if you are concerned about burning calories to lose weight, you might be interested to know that exercise, while helping you lose weight, plays an important role in a happy sex life.

Exercise builds and tones muscles, including your heart. If you participate in a regular women's workout, you'll find you have more strength, energy and flexibility so that sex becomes even more enjoyable. No matter what your body type, remember that a woman's body is beautiful and you should never be ashamed to allow your husband to see it. It is truly a gift that you have been blessed with.

Learn to love the body that you have. Take care of yourself and allow yourself the pleasure of an active sex life. Allow others to help you with all of your other tasks and responsibilities, it's okay not to do everything yourself. But above all, take time to love your spouse, enjoy a healthy sex life and celebrate life to its fullest. When all other things fall away, love is the key to a life well lived.
