How to sleep better

Many people struggle with falling asleep – but there's a surprisingly pleasant solution: orgasm. Studies show that an orgasm before bed relaxes the body, reduces stress, and makes it easier to fall asleep.

After climax, the body releases increased amounts of endorphins and oxytocin – two natural "feel-good hormones" that promote relaxation. And this works even without a partner: Masturbation, whether with your hand or with a toy, is just as effective.

Some people also switch off with an erotic film in order to focus their thoughts on desire and to calm down more easily.

A relaxed body sleeps better – so why not try this approach?
