Sex As a Detox

Sexual relationships: a physical and healthy detoxification

The word ‘sex’ is often used with a vulgar and carnal connotation attached to it. Two naked human bodies in intimate positions – that’s the only image that comes to one’s mind upon seeing this 3 letter word. No wonder, the idea of sex has been reduced to fucking for physical satisfaction only. It is perceived as an act borne out of mere hormonal desire.

The positive and biological aspect of sexual desires is far removed from the current understanding of sex. Respect for one’s sexual desires/relationships is nowhere to be found. (I know, millennials of today must be shocked to read this statement.)

Well, besides physical satisfaction, sexual energies have a much more vital role to play:

• It slashes your stress levels and lowers the risk of cancer and heart attacks.

• The warmth and heat generated in the body due to sexual intimacy reduces anxiety and boosts immunity.

• Sex is the best antidote for libido. Sexual energy boosts vaginal lubrication, blood flow to the vagina and elasticity of the tissues.

• Sex helps in burning fats, blood pressure control, reduced body pain sensation and more.

Another concern related to sexual life is poor performance or unfulfilling sex. Owing to unhealthy food habits and daily routines, people at times are unable to perform well sexually. And, they consider it as a shameful illness about which they cannot talk to anyone. This is the most harmful and disheartening perception about sexual relationships.

Here are 3 such stories which portray this hesitation and fear:

1. Shivani is a 23-year-old virgin working in a tech company. She holds an image of a very reserved and decent girl, far distant from the men around. No one really knows how she has been deprived of sexual pleasure all her life. Whenever she had the urge to do so, she suppressed it. She dated two boys but could never ask them for a sexual relationship because of the fear of being judged.
2. It’s been 7 years Shikha and Ankit have been married. They have never talked about it but they both have never had a fulfilling sexual relationship. Ankit is unable to perform well and Shikha is never satisfied. However, he doesn’t talk about it out of his male ego and she doesn’t speak about it due to the fear of hurting or disrespecting him. Eventually, they both chose to let things be as they are.
3. Rahul is a 25-year-old IITian living in Delhi, away from his family. His close ones see him as a very introverted and studious person, which he definitely is. However, he has sexual urges which he is unable to fulfil. Due to his shy nature, he is always hesitant to approach girls. There was a girl who he loved madly, but could never talk to her about the same. After suppressing his urges for almost 5 years, one day he went to a prostitute to satisfy his sexual hunger. Later, this became a frequent activity for him to go to these women and none of his close ones is aware of it.

Irrespective of the fact that how open advertisements and knowledge related to sex have become, people are still afraid to talk about it. They fail to realize that it’s a biological and natural phenomenon and one shouldn’t be ashamed of it. And, instead of talking clearly about their sexual urges, they either choose to masturbate or in the worst cases, keep those feelings to themselves. They don’t realize that sexual feeling when repressed can result in depression and neurosis.

As a matter of fact, there are ways to boost one’s sexual performance:

• Practice yoga and meditation effectively.

• Add green, leafy and healthy ingredients to your meals.

• Bananas, chillies, onion and garlic are proven to help boost sexual performance

• Unhealthy habits like smoking, drinking, and other toxic elements should be cut down.

• Water intake should be increased.

• One should be sexually active to improve hormonal performance.

However, no matter how much one writes about it, there’s an unavoidable negative perception of sex which stops people from talking about it. The positive impact of sexual relationships has been forgotten, all thanks to the societal garbage surrounding it. So much so, that people like monks and priests who desire for ‘pure’ life condemn sexual relationships in the first place.

All thanks to the ‘impure’ connotation of sexual desires that people have been adapted to for many years. In fact, people have been using sex as a medium of revenge, power game, forced activity and other evil intentions. This is why, physical relationships and sexual desires continue to remain an issue people are hesitant to address.
