1. Enhances desire and helps achieve orgasm

It works regardless of gender. In a study conducted among women, it was found that after 12 weeks of regular yoga practice, the indicators of sexual functions improved. This refers to desire and arousal, the secretion of natural lubrication, and the achievement of orgasm. Interestingly, improvements were more pronounced in women over 45 years old.

A similar study was conducted among men. Its results also recorded changes for the better. The participants assessed desire, satisfaction from sexual intercourse, erection, control over ejaculation, and synchronization with their partner.

2. Strengthens pelvic muscles

Many asanas engage the pelvic area, which improves blood circulation and strengthens the muscles (women can also train them with special exercises). This directly affects the quality of sex and the ability to achieve orgasm.

3. Helps avoid premature ejaculation

Of course, yoga is more popular among women. However, there are also fans of this Eastern practice among men, and they can appreciate its positive impact on their sexual health.

A study was conducted  among two groups of men suffering from premature ejaculation. One group took medication, while the other practiced yoga. The results showed that both groups noticed significant improvements.

Researchers concluded that yoga is a completely safe and effective way to fight this ailment.

4. Teaches to manage breathing

In yoga, a huge emphasis is placed on pranayama — managing breath. A study udarshan Kriya yogic breathing in the treatment of stress, anxiety, and depression: part I-neurophysiologic modelconfirms that this is not in vain. The breathing techniques practiced in yoga help ease anxiety and stress.

Of course, during sex, you are unlikely to start practicing long inhales and sharp exhales, but half an hour of yoga practice after work helps forget about a hard day and make room for love and passion.

5. Improves mood

Yoga practitioners feel happier and more relaxed and note a positive mood after classes. And a good mood is an important component of good sex.

6. Develops flexibility

Here everything is quite simple: most asanas contribute to the development of flexibility and keep the muscles toned. A flexible and toned body is a significant advantage in sex.

In addition, you can use asanas during the process to diversify your sex life. 

The quality of sex depends on many factors, and it is a matter for both partners. It is clear that with just yoga practice, you are unlikely to save a dire situation. But if you incorporate yoga along with  other methods of solving the problem, you have a significant chance of success.
