Benefits of Visualization
According to Psychology Today, visualization is a cognitive technique used to win, get rich, and fight illness. It engages all of your senses to give your mind a real mental sensory of what your goals will feel, smell, sound, and taste like.

That is why the more sensory the memory, the better.
What can I apply visualization to?
Everything! You might be wondering how visualization applies to you and how it ended up in a sex blog. The reality is that we can use visualization to our daily lives and our relationships. Visualization can help to get us more sexual pleasure from our partners and from ourselves.
By tasting, smelling, feeling, hearing and describing our sexual goals to ourselves, it makes it feel more real. It also makes them easier to share with our partner. Visualization can help stimulate your relationships, help incorporate fantasies into sexual play, and increase intimacy and trust in a relationship.
The F.U.Q.s
Visualization starts as soon as you want it to.
