Sometimes you may find that your body is thrown off balance and not functioning the way it should, which can include sexual energy. What exactly causes imbalances?
- Diet – So many imbalances in the body are diet related. We do not eat the way we should and our bodies cannot process all the junk we put into it. It’s as simple as that. Most of us need to change our diets in a major way, but it is a gradual process. Start where you can – little changes are better than none!
- Toxins – We come into toxins on a regular basis through makeup, body care, cleaners, medications, etc. This can really affect the way a body functions.
- Stress – We live in a high-stress society. Stress is a HUGE factor in causing illness, cancers, and overall health problems. Be sure you are getting enough sleep each night to help your body recover from stress, and take herbs that are good for the nerves to help your body handle stress.
- Lack of exercise – staying fit and active are very important for all areas of life!
