How CBD Can Spice Up Your Sex Life

Wondering how CBD can spice up your sex life?

As the weather gets colder, cozy & warm indoor activities become all the more appealing, and that includes spending some quality time in between the sheets with your partner. Pumpkin spice isn’t the only thing that can spice up your routine….adding CBD to your sexy-time regime can give you a delightful boost you never knew you needed! 

You might be wondering how CBD and sex are related, and the answer might suprise you. The way CBD interacts with the body can be both physical and mental, and different forms can be used in multiple ways. Overall, studies have reported that CBD can increase sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, while decreasing the stress hormone cortisol. 

When your body is in a state of relaxation and your cortisol is low, you are in the perfect state to experience sex without stress. Taking CBD before sexual activity has been shown to increase libido by increasing a state of calmness and relaxation. This is especially helpful for people who struggle with performance anxiety in the bedroom’s sex life. Easy ways to achieve this are by ingesting CBD Oils or Gummies

CBD has also been shown to stimulate blood flow, and can help the blood get moving to the genitals to create stronger arousal for both men and women, helping keep a healthy sex life. When blood flows continously it can extend the duration of sex by helping maintain arousal throughout. It also heightens sensation, making whatever activities you participate in feel much more intense. This heightened intensity can lead to stronger orgasms and more pleasurable feelings during all activities.

For women CBD can help with a process called vasodilation where blood vessels expand to allow more oxygenation into muscles. This can help the natural female lubrication process along. It can also be helpful to women who struggle with pain during sex. The added lubrication can help things go more smoothly (no pun intended!) and be a game changer for your sex life.

You might be surprised to know that CBD topicals, like our Root Butter Rub, can be used during sex as lubrication. It’s a direct & all-natural way to increase sensation! You can apply the silky butter directly to the genitals, on either or both partners. You can also apply the rub to toys before use as well. Once you try this you may never want to go back to the regular run of the mill lube!
