This was in line with previous studies showing that cognitive impairment may affect the sexual confidence, assertiveness (the ability to communicate what they want, feeling and thinking to others), arousal, satisfaction to orgasm.
"Concerns about body shape may reduce the frequency and the quality of sex. Because people do not feel attractive or sexy lovemaking tends to encourage lazy and refuse to offer it," said Justin Lehmiller, an expert in social psychology from Harvard University and a sex columnist.
But not to worry, consider the 4 surefire way to spice up your sex and frequency as quoted by CNN, Friday (11/30/2012) following.
1. Know exactly what makes you passionate and not
According to the concept of sexual response control (dual control model of sexual response), there are two things to note each partner before having sex. Both are commonly called the 'pedal' or what makes him passionate and 'brake' or what makes him reluctant to have sex.
'Pedal' sex fantasies one could be certain she likes, perfume partner or form a couple feet long and slender. While 'rem' it is fear can not please your partner or he was appalled by the shadow of the stomach or your hair is thinning.
"The good news, with attention and learn how to respond to the touch of your body then you can train 'brake' to be able to ignore your body image and other ideas that can inhibit the emergence of sexual arousal and orgasm," says sex educator, Emily Nagoski.
2. Listen to some music
Recent studies have revealed that music can help you ignore your body shape and increase sexual desire. Even other studies say 40 percent of people claim that music is more important to increase sexual desire rather than physical appearance or even touch mate.
The study, sponsored music site Spotify's music was also recommended musicians like Marvin Gaye, Barry White or the Kings of Leon as the top choices to encourage your lovemaking.
3. Encourage confidence slowly
Although visual stimuli proved to be more easily added to one's sexual desire, but it could be a 'brake' for those who feel themselves less attractive.
"Begin by dimming the room light, then try using a particular scent that makes you feel sexy or lingerie to cover body parts that make you worry. When you feel it's comfortable, slowly release your lingerie and enjoy intimate activity," said Levine.
4. Size it umpteen numbers
Several studies have shown that many men are not satisfied with the size of his penis, while women busy worrying about the size of her breasts. "The truth is that most men claim to be happy-happy with the size of the breast partner, and vice versa. In other words, many people are worried about their appearance for no apparent reason," said Lehmiller.
In fact the biggest sex organ is the human brain. Moreover, to reduce anxiety because of the form of the abdomen, buttocks or breast size, someone just needs his brain to make such a suggestion.
In the same way, the brain will transfer anxiety to further the dialogue with a partner or bring sexy sexual fantasy you need to revitalize your sex.
