Rub-a-dub Love

Need a place to escape and relax with your sweetheart, but your vacation is months away? No problem, head to the bathroom!

Draw a bubble bath for two, add a few candles, sparkling juice or wine and voila; a relaxing, romantic escape without leaving home. The water not only makes you slippery, the warmth is one way to get your amygdala to shut down, helping bring your arousal up.

See Jan 2008 Sensual Suggestion for more on the amygdala.

For more sensuality, add aromatic soaps and oils. The scents will work wonders on your mood (and can be beneficial for your skin too!). Just be careful to watch where the oils flow. You must keep them out of the vagina because that promotes bacteria growth.

A waterproof pillow or even a rolled up towel (don’t worry-it will dry!) can provide fun and comfort. Put it behind the head of whomever is on the bottom as a cushion. Want your g-spot to enjoy a little rub-a-dub love too? Put the pillow under your knees and have your partner penetrate you from behind. You can always stand if you have something secure to hang on to.

Use your imagination – what else would that pillow be good for?

Baths not your thing? The shower is great for steamy action as well! Lather up a sponge and see how clean you can make your favorite parts. Washing your lover’s hair can be highly erotic too. Gently scrub his scalp with your fingertips for a lovely massage before allowing him to return the favor.

Ready to try a position other than standing? Add a shower stool to increase your available shower positions.

After your steamy encounter in the bathroom, try drying each other off the s-l-o-w way. Maybe your steamy situation in the bath will follow you to the bedroom.
