Today, we are encouraging you to have a sensory overload. Sex is one of those things in life that engages so many of your senses already, so it comes as no surprise that purposely stimulating all your senses during the act can only add to the pleasure.
This sexual trend of extra sensory stimulating sessions have come as people are looking to deepen their intimacy in new ways. So, if you want to explore the same, here’s how you can amp up your sex by stimulating each sense!
Touch/Feel
You can have fun with the sense of touching and feeling in a whole variety of ways! Oils and even massage candles can be used on the skin. Speaking of the second option, the hot wax also doubles as some temperature play, which you can also experiment with the opposite temperature, i.e., running an ice cube or something cold on your partner.
Also have fun with toys with textures! Paddles, ropes, and other toys can add a whole new feeling to your sex.
Taste
Have you ever eaten something tasty off of your partner? If not, then you definitely should try it. It’s a tantalisingly tempting way to enjoy a treat with them. Try something that licks off easily, the classics are melted chocolate or whipped cream. There are also sexy options like edible underwear or flavoured lube. Have fun with it, and have someone who looks like a snack, literally become one.
Smell
Make sure some nice aromas are in the air to maximise your experience. Light a nice candle, some incense, or have some freshly trimmed flowers nearby.
Hearing
Auditory waves can add intensity and also activate other pleasure centres in your brain. Take advantage of that by setting the mood with some music, or even play around with sexy ASMR!
Sight
This sense is fun, because the absence of it can enhance other sensations. Use a blindfold to block their eyes and surprise them with extra intense sensations. You can also implement something like a mirror or even watching porn together to add some extra visual stimulation to your sexy time!
These are just some of the many ways you can get the senses extra excited during a session! Play around with one or a combination of these options to deepen the intensity of your sex. You won’t feel the same!
