Problem: Article: Watching adult themed movies or tv with your partner can be a good way to get both parties aroused. You can experiment with pornography if you're both comfortable with that. Read erotic literature together or try pornographic magazines. Watching sex scenes or reading about sexual activities exposes both parties to potential new fantasies that they can peruse together and can help with arousal or provide stimulus. Watching porn habitually by oneself can desensitize a man to sex, reducing sex drive. Ask your partner if there is anything they want to try, but hasn't. If they says there is nothing, ask if there's something they have never done but hasn't particular fantasized about. A simple starting point can be being intimate in a room in your home other than your bedroom, if this is practical. If you are afraid to raise the subject directly, begin with indirect hints. "What did you think of the scene in that movie we watched? Would you ever try that?" Be cautious when discussing fantasies. it can be hurtful to suggest that you are thinking of something other than your partner when you're being intimate. Emphasize that you want to experience something new with the person you're with. Sharing fantasies can build trust, be prepared to talk about things you'd like to try too. If you're not comfortable talking about your fantasies, its not fair to expect your partner to be. Try foreplay to increase arousal. Not only can this get men in the mood, it will also decrease performance anxiety. If a man is able to satisfy his significant other without obtaining an erection, he will be less anxious about his libido. One study found that the preferred erogenous zones for men in order of rank are: penis, lips, scrotum, inner thigh, nape of neck, nipples, perineum, pubic hairline, back of the neck, and ears. One study has found that people who stare at a photo of their loved one for 30 seconds or longer, naturally begin producing the chemical dopamine. Dopamine is a chemical in the brain that is closely associated with libido. Massages can be a great bonding experience and can prime your significant other for an erotic experience. Establish a sensuous atmosphere to improve the experience. Try turning off the lights and lighting some candles. Play some music. Keep some oils near you for lubrication during the massage. Cut your fingernails before the massage to avoid scratching up your partner. A study has shown that scents from perfumes and candles can help increase sex drive. Because a variety of factors were involved, it is difficult to say definitively which were most effective. However preliminary results suggest some scents that might be more effective than others. The study suggested that effective smell profiles included pumpkin pie, licorice, donuts, lavender, oriental spice, cola, and various mixtures of these scents.
Summary: Enjoy erotica together. Discuss fantasies. Focus on the whole body. Look at your partner. Give massages. Use smell.

Problem: Article: Not getting enough sleep and oversleeping can leave you feeling groggy and less alert. Medical experts recommend 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night. To feel more alert, establishing a routine is also important. Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time each day. If it's too cold in your room or too warm, you can start to feel sleepy and foggy. To be more alert, try increasing or lowering the temperature in your room. Researchers have concluded that the optimal room temperature for sleep is about 65 degrees Fahrenheit, so adjusting the temperature a few degrees in either direction can help you wake up and feel more focused. If you are in a work environment or place where you do not have control over the thermostat, bring a sweater or jacket with you so you can easily warm up or cool off to feel more alert. Houseplants filter out chemicals and allergens that drain our energy and cause us to be less alert. Try bringing a plant to keep in your workspace or at home to feel more awake. Sitting in a darkened room can make you feel less alert because it interferes with the body's circadian rhythms. Open the curtains or blinds and let the sun shine in. If you live in a place where it is seldom sunny or it's currently dark outside, research indicates that turning on lights can also help you feel more alert. If you are in a meeting and need to feel more alert, select a seat by a sunny window. Although it's best to talk with your doctor before introducing any herbal supplements or vitamins to your daily routine, you may want to consider trying some of the options below that have been shown to make people more alert: A vitamin B-12 deficiency can cause memory problems and low energy. The recommended dosage for people age 14 and older is 2.4 micrograms per day. Many multivitamins already contain B-12, so unless you have been diagnosed with a vitamin B-12 deficiency, you may already be getting sufficient levels. Ginseng, according to some research, may elevate your mood and energy levels, which will make you more alert. There are no standard dosages, so talk with your doctor or a pharmacist about how much to take. Make sure you purchase ginseng from a reputable health food store or online retailer because it is expensive and many retailers add filler ingredients to their supplements. Guarana is an herb high in caffeine that some people believe can help improve mental focus. Check with your doctor about the right dosage for you, but many people trying to be more alert take 200 to 800 milligrams of guarana per day. If you already consume a lot of caffeine, you should use this cautiously because it may disrupt your sleep. Many pharmacies and health food stores also sell specific energy or alertness vitamins and supplements. Drugs and alcohol slow your reaction time, dull your responses, and make you less alert. Avoid these substances if you want to focus, concentrate, and be on your game. If you are having a hard time staying alert, it's a good idea to talk with a medical professional as soon as possible. There may be an underlying condition causing your symptoms that is best diagnosed and treated by a doctor.
Summary: Get the right amount of sleep. Adjust the temperature in your room. Keep a plant in your home or office. Let the sun shine in. Consider herbal supplements and vitamins. Avoid substances that make you less alert. Seek medical advice.

Problem: Article: This is fun and playful; however, if she seems to not like it or tells you to stop, make sure to do so.
