A healthy life style is defined by a number of actions and attitudes towards life. Most people think of a healthy life style as eating right and exercising, drinking lots of water and meditating. Yet healthy doesn’t have to be all veggies and running shoes. Sex, the ultimate exercise, is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Natural as it is, sex certainly is an ever-present part of our lives.

Sex can be viewed as a means to maintain a healthy and happy life or a way to preserve our species. We prefer the first. After many research studies and surveys conducted, it has been proven that people with active sex lives are happier than people with a regular or non existent sexual situation. Being unable to understand the true importance and relevance of sex in life can complicate what would otherwise be considered a smooth ride. Because sex is a way of bringing joy into your everyday experiences, it certainly plays an important part in the play of life.

Sexual compatibility for example is an important issue. Good sexual communication helps establish a deeper link between the two parts and truly understand where the other is coming from. When true sexual communication exists, both partners can get to develop and reach a given comfort zone. Not only marriage but any relationship partly depends on the quality of their sex lives. Indulging in sex more than three times a week, for the benefit of your partner and yourself, is considered a good, healthy and highly active sex life. The body’s response to a good sexual encounter covers all areas: from the physical to the mental. The whole body benefits from a well performed session of sexual intimacy. Today, there is no excuse. You can even get generic Viagra.

After all, a healthy life style does include everything from a a good night sleep, a balanced diet, hefty water intake, exercise and so on. Add sex to the mix and you have yourself a complete all-inclusive healthy lifestyle. Sexual intimacy makes our immune systems grow stronger, by boosting the production of antibodies that protect us from getting sick and tired. Your average common cold, a little fever and the very uncomfortable runny or stuffy nose can be a thing of the past. Age here is no barrier; sex does not discriminate. Sexual intimacy is for all the right ages. From the young adult to the elder man, sex (like laughter) is one of the remedies of life. Were this a concern, we do have all those ED treatments like generic Viagra and stuff, right?

As men, sex is something that is always kept in mind. And I don’t mean this in the creepy-raincoat-man kind of way. Known to be men’s favorite and only thought, sex is without a doubt something men enjoy passionately. A sexually active male likes and enjoys sex. All people view sex in different ways. Some find it a body function, some find it instinctive. There are people who see sex as a way to connect with another human being, others see it as a personal experience. Sex literally makes us experience an invigorating rush, both mentally and physically. Healthy sex activity helps participants relieve themselves of accumulated stress. Because sexual activity is also intensely physical, the body works out and sweat helps clear the skin. Toxins released from a sweaty sex work out leave your skin glowing. We are in a better mood because we release endorphins by having sex. And when in a good mood, things just seem brighter and we go about things with a better attitude.

Men who are having regular sexual activity have shown to live healthier, happier and better lives in the sense that these have much less stress, care more about their physical condition and feel better about their physical aspect. Besides, because they feel good about themselves, this reflects in their actions and behaviour towards others. Embrace sex as part of your new healthy life style and continue discovering the wonders of active sexuality!
