When you find you r libido is low, you research to find out what can be done to increase it. That search has landed you here and I would love to share with you some of the information I have discovered while researching this topic myself.

Living Healthy

My first key to improving my low libido was making sure I was living as healthily as I could. I started drinking pure unadulterated water. This made me realize I was dehydrated, and improved my arousal signs. I ate more fresh vegetables, think salads and frozen foods instead of canned, and just enough carbs to keep my energy stable. After just a few days of this healthy diet, I found my energy was actually increased from where it was and some of my aches and pains disappeared. Feeling better already, I decided to get some exercise and discovered a feature of cable television and internet on my computer. I could find free exercise videos for nearly everything! My first stop was simple exercises for strengthening weakened or arthritic areas such as my ankles and back. I was careful to stop before I was in pain and to drink my water and breathe while exercising. The energy and endorphins I was releasing naturally improved my mental image of myself and my physical wellbeing such that I found myself thinking it would be nice to be close to my spouse more often than was happening.

Therapy

I also found the information that psychological issues could be holding me back from enjoying this relationship. Not having had a sex drive, or at least not much of one, caused some tension and conflict in my relationship. My spouse began to feel unloved and unwanted. While these may be signs of my lover’s own issues, they did stem from how I reacted to our interactions.  I did a little soul searching, remembering and discovered there were events in my past that affected my view of our relationship in a negative way. Even though I misled myself that I was actually trying to help the relationship, I was actually sabotaging it. It took some discussions and still takes practice not to revert to the bad habits I had developed, but the effort has brought us closer together. The bond we have developed into what it should have been has helped us to rekindle the excitement that we felt near the beginning of our relationship.

I was able to undertake these improvements on my own. It should be noted and understood though that I have had extensive research into these subjects. The average person should invest some time into reading and visiting professionals with extensive knowledge in the areas they wish to improve before beginning any process with the potential to be painful, emotionally or physically. Once you have accomplished the healing of mind and body, even if by medications that are available, you and your own lover will revel in the renewed relationship you share.
