4 Ways To Feel Sexy At Any Age

As you grow older, it’s easy to lose that spark in the bedroom. Boredom, loss of adventurousness, physical ailments, and other problems can overcome even the healthiest of relationships over time, causing a loss of libido and creating emotional distance. But keeping intimacy alive can have profound effects on your life.

Research has shown that healthy people have better sex lives. Fit people enjoy sex more and have a lower chance of dealing with a sexual dysfunction that can impair their love life. If you’re experiencing a loss of intimacy, there are steps you can take to reclaim it. Here’s how to feel sexy again.

Eat lots of fruits and vegetables, plenty of whole grains, and a good daily amount of low-fat dairy products.

Tell your partner about changes in your body that worry you along with any other issues that bother you about your sex life. Describe what makes you feel good. Your partner can’t satisfy you if he/she doesn’t know what you desire. Don’t criticize. Focus on what he/she is doing
