These 5 Yoga Poses Double as Sex Positions

As we all know, yoga is one of the most beneficial mind and body practices you can give yourself. Sex, like yoga, is an extremely natural yet sacred thing that happens to the mind, body and heart. Sex and yoga alone are a total body workout, so combining the two seems to just make sense.

Yoga-inspired sex poses? Let’s raise those vibrations!

Odds are you’re already combining sex and yoga. . . So why not kill two birds with one stone by performing yoga poses during sexy time with your partner for a full body workout that’s also incredibly sensual and enjoyable?

Side note, you do not need to be a yogi master or even a yoga student to take these yoga poses to the bedroom. . . or counter-top, wherever you both prefer that day!
 

Here are 5 yoga poses that double as sex positions for an out-of-this-world experience:

Bridge Pose

Sex/Yoga Pose Description: Lay on your back, and placing your feet hip-width apart, begin to lift the seat off the mat (or bed) until your knees are in line with your hips. Draw your shoulder blades together, keeping them on the ground while interlacing your fingers beneath the hips.
Body Benefit: Bridge pose not only stretches the hip flexors, but it tones the vagina because you are squeezing the pelvic floor (same effect as doing kegels), not to mention improving orgasms. Yes please!

Cat/Cow Stretch

Sex/Yoga Pose Description: Go into a table-top position – wrists in line with shoulders and knees in line with your hips. As your partner is inside you, move between Cat (rounding your spine as you squeeze your squeeze your buttox and thighs together) and Cow (releasing the belly as you send the crown of your head and tailbone to the sky).
Body Benefit: Cat/Cow strengthens the kegel muscles, which do the contracting when you orgasm, hence making those orgasms way more controlled.

 Happy Baby Pose

 

Sex/Yoga Pose Description: Lay on your back, and draw your knees to the outside of your ribcage. Flex your feet, holding the inner or outer blades of your feet and draw your knees towards the floor.

Body Benefit: This pose gently stretches the inner groins and increases circulation, which calms the mind, open the hips, and allows the spine to relax. This pose also helps in increasing your libido and making you feel good with easy clitoral stimulation.

Cobra Pose

Sex/Yoga Pose Description: Laying on your belly with your chin on the mat or bed, plant your palms beneath your shoulders. Use an inhale to lift your chin and chest, as your hips and lower body press firmly down into the floor.

Body Benefit: Cobra pose stimulates the sexual centers within the body, improving sexual power to create enhanced sexual intimacy with your partner. Your body’s positioning makes you climax faster because of where you and your partner connect.

Plow Pose

 

Sex/Yoga Pose Description: Starting on your back, lift your legs skyward. From there, bring your hands to your low back for support, and begin to hinge at the hips as you allow your legs to lower towards the floor beyond your head. Your legs can remain straight, or you can bring a bend into the knees.

Body Benefit: This pose stimulates the full body. It stretches the spine, bringing fresh blood to your brain and pelvic area. Once that blood flow increases to both the brain and pelvis, your orgasim will be as strong as ever.

To some yogis, like myself, both yoga and sex alone are soul-striking, passionate acts. When you practice yoga or have sex, it’s an intimate act that reminds you how to really feel in the moment, and in turn impacts how you then perceive and act in the world.

Everyone should be proud of the skin they are in and use their bodies in the healthiest ways possible. Take full advantage of these yoga and sex benefits. . . your body, mind, and partner will thank you!
