Improved blood circulation works like magic when it comes to improving your sex drive. When blood circulates smoothly throughout the blood and reaches the nerve ends of your sex organs, it generates a pulsating sensation, bringing you close to an orgasm. And what if yoga can help in uninterrupted blood flow throughout your body, bringing you closer to a better sex life? Wonderful, ain’t it?
So, here are 5 yoga positions that you can practise to raise the temperature between the sheets.
1. Marjariasana (Cat Pose)

- Hold this position while you inhale and exhale deeply for a few seconds and return to the starting position.
