How breathing during sex can make a difference
Breathing is something in our daily lives. Breathing is vital to staying alive. As you can imagine, breathing is something natural that we do constantly and without realizing it. But within sex, controlling breathing is really important when it comes to achieving better results. If you want to know how to do it, we are going to give you all the necessary guidelines to achieve it easily. Before going into details, I want to remember that every time we breathe, what we do is add oxygen to the body. This oxygen is transported to the lungs and from there it passes into the blood and is finally distributed throughout the body. It is something continuous and necessary to stay alive. All of this is done unconsciously so that the body can relax and consequently do its daily activities without being aware of this activity that is so important for life. But things change when we begin to experience an erotic episode. In this case, it is recommended to control your breathing to make a difference and consequently obtain good results. Through many studies it has been shown that breathing plays a very important role during encounter and sex. By this we mean that by controlling our breathing we can last longer and, above all, enjoy a higher degree of pleasure. If we remember, a quarter of a century ago an area was discovered in the brain in which there are more than three thousand neurons that directly related breathing to the person's own mental state. The area was called the respiratory pacemaker. That was a great discovery, but it wasn't until recently that it began to be studied in more depth. In this new research it was discovered which is the small area that controls breathing. It is only made up of 175 neurons. That area not only controls breathing, but also sends breathing to the brain. Experimenting with rats, they realized that when the zone was deactivated, the animals not only relaxed, but also changed their usual behavior. All of this caused breathing to become slower and more controlled. This area of ​​neurons has been named pranayama neurons. This is really related to people who do meditation. They are people who are able to isolate that area, which allows them to relax, reduce their breathing level and consequently be much happier. This shows that meditation is not linked to a religion, but rather it is a type of life for people who want to isolate themselves from problems and live much more relaxed. In a certain way it can be explained under the concept of access to eternity by leaving aside the mind and time.

How is breathing applied to sex?

Thanks to these studies we have been able to see first-hand that thanks to breathing we can experience situations that could not be enjoyed naturally. That happens with sex, if it is done with maximum control of breathing, you can achieve sensory experiences that would otherwise be impossible to obtain. And not everything is about penetration in sex, there are many things that are there to be discovered and that the vast majority of people overlook. Studies are showing that there are currently different types of breathing that can be practiced during sex and thus obtain different results.

Types of breathing for sex

Slow and prolonged breathing

It is usually recommended to bet on it before the sexual encounter takes place. To do it correctly we have to sit with our backs straight. We take a deep breath until we can't take any more and then we exhale it slowly. It is important to do it in a relaxed way and feeling how the air enters and leaves our body. With this breathing technique we not only relax by repeating the operation about five times, but it is also a very interesting technique to control ejaculation. It is also recommended to do it during sexual intercourse and especially when we notice that we are going to ejaculate and we want to delay it.

Breathing in unison

To put this breathing into practice you have to agree with your partner. It may seem difficult, but it is easier than it seems. The goal is to try to notice your partner's breathing and thus feel it yours. To achieve this, it is recommended to sit together and hug each other or go directly for the cockroach position. It is a tantra technique that allows you to regulate the intensity of the sexual act and exchange energies in a simple way. When done correctly, you get experiences that could never be achieved with traditional sex.

Fast, shallow breathing

It is a type of breathing that is recommended for women to practice. Normally, when women are about to reach orgasm, they don't know what to do to achieve it and not leave it behind. In this case, it may be a good option to opt for shallow and rapid breaths. With this technique, the woman will be able to relax and enjoy the moment, but it will also be easier for her to reach orgasm. For this reason, many sexologists recommend this breathing technique to women who on more than one occasion have come close to enjoying an orgasm. But because of breathing they have lost it. As you can see, breathing is actually linked to sex. It has been shown that when the breath goes directly to the sexual center, everything becomes more active and the experiences are totally different. For this reason, we must learn to make the most of our breathing to enjoy our sexual relations to the fullest.
