Mindfulness Can Lead to Better Sex

Sexual arousal originates in the brain, where neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin play pivotal roles in desire and pleasure. In fact, your brain is one of the body’s largest sex organs (not counting skin and all of its tingly sensations). Anyway, the good news is you can train your brain for better sex. If you regularly meditate, you’re ahead of the game! Practicing mindfulness and stress-reduction techniques can enhance sexual satisfaction by positively influencing the production of these feel-good brain chemicals.
