Good morning lovely readers of the Goddess Blog and welcome to today’s post brought to you by your one and only Goddess, for today I will be sharing several examples that both of you guys and gals should take note of in order to make your bedroom a whole lot sexier - so without any further ado, let’s dig right into it, and as always be sure to drop in some casual cups of coffee for your one and only Goddess!
Making your bedroom into a love island starts with taking an honest inventory of the space. Is this a fantasy lair where you can lure your partner in for some fun, sexy fantasy time? Or is your bedroom more of a storage place for kids’ toys and your bed-side work station?. If it's the latter, then hmm…maybe the bedroom could use a little work. Here are several simple shakeups to reboot the romance in your bedroom.
1. Hide The TV
If you don’t entirely nix the TV from your bedroom—highly suggested—try hiding it. It should not be the central focus of your bedroom. Put it in a cabinet or on a shelf that has doors or shutters to hide it from view. This way, late-night news or the latest episode of Real Housewives won’t put a damper on your sex life.
2. Organize The Cords
All wires and electronic boxes should be out of the way. As few electrical cords as possible should be out at any given time, particularly when they are near your bedside. Because who wants to trip over a computer charger in the middle of foreplay? Cords left out are clutter and take away from the clear energy of the room. Also, a tangle of cords can accumulate dust and pet hair, which is way more ewww gross than ahhh sexy.
3. Keep Work Separate
There’s nothing that nips l’amour right in the bud more than making out with your partner, only to have your eyes alight on a stack of unpaid bills. Try to keep your desk out of your bedroom, if space allows. Work should be kept separate from the bedroom where you make love. Clear out any paper clutter like magazines and paperwork in your bedroom or near your bed. If you work on a laptop, try and keep the laptop separate from your other bedroom equipment. Still need a place to actually earn some money? Try a mini-desk in the corner of the living room instead.
4. Low Lights
You know how romantic restaurants always have low lighting? It’s because we relax in lower light—and everyone looks better, too. Find soft lighting for your bedroom, with several levels of light if possible. If you can turn down the lights with a dimmer or lowering device, use this when you want a more romantic mood. And if you can’t rewire the lighting, a low-wattage bulb in a nice lamp should set the mood.
5. Light Candles
Candles are a classic romantic go-to, and today there are more choices than ever. Natural flame candles tend to give off a softer light, while battery powered ones are brighter and create a more energizing vibe. Here, like in so much of sex, the motto is safety first—so be sure to blow out any candles before you fall asleep (or if you’re worried you’re going to forget all about them, opt instead for use electric or battery candle).
6. Good Sheets
Put soft sheets on the bed and a soft comforter. Surround yourself with things that feel good on your skin and on your body. Treat yourself as if you were in a spa or a five- star hotel. And it turns out that Mom was right (not about sexy bedrooms, that would be weird) about quality over quantity: I am of the opinion that it’s a good idea to spend on one or two good sets of sheets and rotate them often, since it’s more important to have one set of good sheets than six sets of bad ones.
7. Upgrade Your Pillows
Have good pillows on the bed, and many of them. To which we add: Try down alternative pillows, since they are hypoallergenic and wash up well. Because, if all goes as planned, that pillow might need some serious freshening after your wild lovemaking. Or a glass of iced tea spills, whichever is more likely.
8. Soothing Element
“Wow, being stressed out really puts me in the mood to make love,” said no one ever. So make your environment do part of the relaxation work. Notice what makes your bedroom feel calm. Is it new shades or light white curtains? Is it a small fountain in the corner or the sound of a forest from a sound machine? Create something to signal to your body that bedroom = me time.
9. Keep Handy Toys Around
Quelle surprise—it seems that just knowing your woo-woo gizmos (yes, that’s the scientific term) are nearby can be a turn-on. Having something sexy nearby can help you feel like being romantic. Have sex toys, massage oils and sexy reading material and other things to view that turn you on in a drawer by the bed or a locked closet (if you have children). So, even if you are out of those damn triple-A batteries, your toys are still helping the greater good.
That is it for today’s post ladies and gents! I hope I was helpful enough to make you gals and boys rethink your whole bedroom space!
Goddess is out, have a great day ahead you lovely people,
