Tantric Exercises to Increase General Well-Being and Sexual Abilities

Here are two tantric poses and three breathing exercises...
There are many health benefits in practicing Tantric Yoga.

    3) They increase the sexual drive and abilities.

RELAXING AT THE END OF THE SERIES - When the series is done, lie down upon a carpet or mat on the floor and relax for 2-5 minutes. This relaxation will increase the effects of the exercises and help you recover, if the exercises made you tired. Concetrate upon relaxing your legs first, then your lower body, then your upper body, then your arms and shoulders, and at last your, neck, head and face. When the whole body is relaxed, try not to think about anything, and relax your whole body even further. Stay in this relaxed state for some time without thinking about anything.
