Orgasms Decrease Stress
Orgasms are fantastic at decreasing stress & anxiety levels because they trigger the release of several neurotransmitters, including oxytocin, otherwise known as the “love hormone”.
Oxytocin is not only released during an orgasm but also during foreplay. It is known to promote feelings of relaxation, trust, and psychological stability. This hormone, along with others like endorphins and serotonin, contributes to a sense of wellbeing, reduction in stress and helping to alleviate anxiety.
The how part! Orgasms are more than just a source of pleasure—they play a crucial role in reducing stress and promoting mental well-being. During an orgasm, the body experiences a significant reduction in cortisol levels, a hormone that is typically associated with stress. By lowering cortisol, orgasms help to mitigate the negative effects of stress on the body. Additionally, the release of dopamine during an orgasm enhances feelings of pleasure and satisfaction, creating a sense of euphoria that further counteracts stress and anxiety. This powerful combination of reduced cortisol and elevated dopamine makes orgasms an effective natural stress reliever, contributing to overall psychological stability and relaxation.
One study shows that almost 40% of women who masturbate do so to relax.
Orgasms Give You an Overall Sense of Well-Being
When we are flooded with the post-orgasmic hormone cocktail of dopamine and oxytocin, we are more in our bodies and are generally more at peace. Pleasure, orgasmic or not, can boost our health. During foreplay and sexual arousal, our brains naturally release the hormone, serotonin, which helps to increase sexual satisfaction and regulate mood.
Orgasms Boost Self-Esteem
Orgasms are a great way of boosting one’s self-esteem. Knowing one’s body, feeling in tune with it and being able to pleasure oneself, quite often banishes those imposter type feelings knowing how amazing you are able to make yourself feel.
Orgasms & Better Sleep
The decreased stress that an orgasm provides can be linked to better sleep quality ensuring our overall mood and wellbeing is on tip top form!
What gives Made Of More’s Intimate Serum the WOW factor?!
Well-versed in the power of CBD, Made Of More knows how great this active ingredient is, but put it into nano format and wow; the fun just got even more real!
Here’s how: Many people don’t realise that their own body might be sabotaging their pleasure. Deep within your body lies the endocannabinoid system (ECS), a complex network responsible for regulating vital functions like sleep, pain, inflammation, and, most importantly, sexual arousal. However, modern stress, inflammation, and other lifestyle factors can throw this system off balance, preventing you from enjoying the mind-blowing orgasms you deserve.
This is where CBD comes in. CBD is remarkably similar to the natural cannabinoids your body produces, making it a powerful ally in restoring balance. By interacting with your ECS receptors, CBD helps optimise your body’s natural functions—enhancing arousal, reducing discomfort, and increasing pleasure. When applied topically, CBD can boost blood flow to your intimate areas, heightening sensitivity and improving lubrication, turning good sex into unforgettable, next level experiences.
