So you want to have sex, but as a baby boomer, you feel too old to do it? Your body’s fitness doesn’t match up to your mind’s amorous intentions? Or for female boomers, is menopause making sex less enjoyable? And for male boomers, are prostrate issues getting in the way? Well, you needn’t fret too much because yoga is here to help!
Yoga poses for boomers to enjoy better sex
Yoga helps in keeping you fit, makes your body more flexible, lets your mind relax and makes you more aware of the sensations in your body. Often boomer sex falls victim to stress, age, lack of physical fitness and the consequential lack of confidence in one’s body. The following yoga poses can help boomers combat these passion killers:
Upavista Konasana or the Wide Straddle Forward Bend
Step1- Sit on the floor and spread your legs
Step2- Flex your ankles so that your toes are pointing upwards
Step 3-Bend forward but go only as far as is comfortable
Step 4- Deep breathe and stay in this position for 10-15 seconds
Step 6- Return to the first position. Relax. Repeat the exercise 4-5 times
Benefits to Boomers- Increases blood flow in your pelvis, which means more sensation in the area. Increase in sensation means more sexual pleasure
Baddha Konasana or the Cobbler’s Pose
Step1: Sit with your knees bent in such a way that the soles of your feet touch the floor
Step 2- Hold your toes, round your back and lean over your knees
Step 3- Deep breathe and stay in this position for 10-15 seconds
Step 4- Return to the first position.
Step 5- Relax and repeat the exercise 4-5 times
