Valentine’s Day
Treat each other on Valentine’s Day by really
making one another feel special, happy and relaxed.
Massage
Ideally we should have a massage once a month to
soothe any weary muscles and to cleanse our system of any knots and toxins.
However, this is so easily put to the bottom of the list of things we should do
but never get around to because of social and work and business and we often
feel the guilt for doing other things rather than pampering ourselves.
Pampering is important for your wellbeing and a massage builds a close bond
between a couple due to the release of a chemical called oxytocin and hormones
that reduce stress.
Oxytocin is known as the cuddling hormone related
to trust; what more can you offer someone that you care about?
Chocolate
We are always looking for an excuse to chocolate
and this is a good one. It does make sense that chocolate is heavy
on the valentines gift list as it contains PEA (phenylethylamine) that when
eaten causes the releases your reward chemical dopamine from the pleasure zones
in your brain. Aim to go for dark chocolate with natural sweeteners such
as xylitol. Xylitol is beneficial to the mouths bacteria and therefore added
bonus is you can both have fresh breath!
Bath time
Bath at bedtime soothing all the muscles and strains of the day.
This is such a
calming and relaxing experience to share with your
partner as you pretend the world doesn’t exist beyond that bathroom door. You
can add natural minerals which can have a very calming and relaxing effect on
the mind and muscles taking aches and pains away.
Romantic meal for two
There are a range of foods that are classed as
aphrodisiacs as they are rich in ingredients known to support the libido. When
looking at foods for fertility you are aiming for foods that are rich in zinc,
bromelain, vitamin E, selenium.
An example of foods for your romantic menu are
below:
Oysters, asparagus avocado with brazil nuts
followed by bananas and melted chocolate to really boost fertility levels and
libido
