How masturbation can help with mental health
The body works in mysterious and wonderful ways, and the best way to ensure it treats you well, is it to treat it well! Masturbation is one of the best ways to explore yourself, and has a variety of physical, mental and emotional benefits associated with it. Studies have shown that sex in general can dramatically improve your mood - but masturbation specifically even more so!
Whether you're single or in a relationship, masturbation could be just the thing to help improve your mood!
No pressure
Masturbation is, obviously, solo. This means that you can enjoy yourself without the pressure of having to make sure your partner is enjoying themselves as well – you can be selfish! Give yourself the pleasure you deserve!
Many studies have shown pressure to 'perform' can impact the pleasure you feel during sex, which in turn might affect your mood negatively. However, if you stick to masturbation then it's all about you! No stress, no pressure - just pleasure.
Exploration
If you've always struggled to know exactly what you want during sex, it's likely made a negative impact on your sex life and feelings towards sex. Studies have shown that an unsatisfactory sex life can impact your overall mood and health – but rest assured, a little bit of self-exploration could be just the thing to reverse that!
