How to Boost Intimacy Naturally With CBD. Intimacy check. How’s it going over there? On a scale from one to 10? Even if you’re saying “10/10, five stars, A+!” about your sex life (and especially if you’re not), you may still want a little boost to take things to the next level. One of our favorite ways to turn up the heat? CBD, a plant-based powerhouse that can transform intimacy from “meh” to "mind-blowing".
What Is CBD?
CBD or cannabidiol is one of the many active compounds found in the cannabis plant. Unlike THC, cannabidiol is non-psychoactive, or it doesn’t get you high. CBD has all of the relaxation-promoting benefits, but without the side effects of marijuana, leading to major growth in the United States. According to a SingleCare survey, 33% of American adults have used CBD once or more. Now, you can find CBD in snacks, drinks, beauty products, and of course, CBD infused sex oil.
Why Is CBD Super Sexy?
CBD can make a major impact on your sex life for a few reasons.
-
CBD increases pleasure
CBD helps increase blood flow to help pack the pleasure. Cannabinoid receptors in your reproductive organs and sexual tissue are stimulated by CBD, increasing blood flow and sensitivity, resulting in more natural lubrication. This can help you shift from "ow” to “oh wow”—even if intimacy has been painful or uncomfortable in the past.
-
CBD promotes relaxation
Ever feel too stressed to get in the mood? You’re not alone. If you can’t find your chill, it’s going to be much more difficult to find pleasure. Anxiety is a common feeling before or during sex. CBD is thought to help promote your relaxation mode, releasing tension in your muscles and putting you at ease.
-
CBD sets the vibe
Set the mood! CBD can provide a little boost by enhancing natural neurotransmitters and endorphins in your body. Feeling better overall means a better sexual experience. If you suffer from painful sex from a condition like endometriosis, cancer, menopause, or post-birth pain, CBD can help ease that discomfort–take it from our co-founder, a breast cancer survivor.
