Surprising Tips to Boost Libido
Talk: When was the last time you and your partner had a real conversation about your relationship? It’s important to touch base on a communicative level to get into an intimate level.

For many couples, communication is a barrier to libido, so opening up the lines of communication can re-open your intimacy doors too.
Drink tea: Mainly of the green variety, as it offers several health benefits due to its antioxidants. Green tea also naturally boosts energy and endurance, which means it can get you going and keep you going. Lastly, green tea calms you and with stress being another big inhibiting factor for libido, it’s important to feel calm to feel in the mood.
Take a bath: Riding the calming train, taking a bath is a nice way to unwind and relax. You can up this by sipping on a glass of wine too. Baths are also very sensual and can help clear your mind and get you in the mood.
Use eco-friendly products: Typical cosmetic products contain parabens, as they help keep unwanted bacteria away and keeps your skin looking its best. On the other hand, parabens are linked with hormonal imbalances, which can lower sex drive in both men and women. Check your product labels and start opting for paraben-free products.

Dress the part: If you’re constantly in baggy clothes, maybe with some holes or stains, you may be comfortable, but you aren’t very sexy. Sometimes you have to dress the part to feel differently and playing dress up can really put you in the mood.
Aromatherapy: Lavender and vanilla can help promote relaxation, and as we mentioned, when you’re relaxed, you can be more in the mood.
