how to increase the sex time - #37427
I am really worried about my performance in bed lately. It feels like me and my partner are just not connect much anymore, ya know? I’m 35 and I used to have a much better sex life, but now I find it hard to last long. I’ve tried a few things like herbal supplements – but nottn seems to work, which is super frustrating! We recently had a talk about intimacy since I want to make sure we are both satisfied, like emotionally and physically, you know? I guess I’m just really wondering how to increase the sex time without resorting to medications or anything harsh. I mean, even simple stuff like relaxation techniques or diet changes, anything that could help prolong things would be amazing. Sometimes I stress too much about it, which probably makes it worse! My partner keeps assuring me that it’s not just about the time but kinda hard to ignore that when I feel, well, inadequate. So, any Ayurvedic tips on how to increase the sex time naturally would be super helpful. Really hoping someone can share insights or personal experiences that could work for me!

Let’s explore some suitable Ayurvedic strategies to help you enhance sexual stamina – a concern echoed by many. To increase sex time, doesn’t necessarily have to rely on well, medication or drastic measures. Ayurveda shows emphasis on understanding individual constitution or dosha - Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Imbalances in these often reflect in various health concerns. For you, Vata dosha could be influential in this sense due to associated stress and anxiety, leading to decreased stamina.
Start with diet; incorporating certain foods can support stamina and vitality. Lean towards a Sattvic diet with warm, nutritious foods like whole grains, nuts such as almonds and cashews, and seeds like sesame. They help nourish ojas - the subtle energy which enhances vigor. Avoid spicy, fried, and processed foods as these can aggravate Vata, thus potentially impacting performance.
Also Ayurvedic herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari are known for their adaptogenic and rejuvenating properties. Take Ashwagandha powder with warm milk daily, preferably in the morning. Shatavari can be used similarly or as a capsule. These herbs aid in reducing stress and boosting energy levels.
Next, relaxation techniques like Pranayama (breathing exercises) can work wonders. Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) done for 5-10 minutes daily can help in calming mind and reducing that anxiety. Meditation too, is excellent for mind relaxation. Dedicate a few moments each day to mindfulness; focusing on here and now can bring immense mental clarity.
Timing is often key. Regularizing sleep and maintaining a consistent routine aids in balancing body’s natural rhythms, indirectly supporting stamina. Also, physical activity like yoga or light exercise helps maintain overall vitality. Positions like Vajrasana and Baddha Konasana can be especially beneficial for reproductive health.
If concerns remain or symptoms exacerbate, consider meeting with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner for a tailored assessment. Balancing body and ensuring a supportive lifestyle can definitely assist in improving intimacy and satisfaction, beyond merely extending time.
