What happens when we’re stressed?

Cortisol is the stress hormone and it’s produced when we are producing too much adrenaline, which is another stress hormone. They’re both responsible for putting us in ‘fight or flight’ mode, and it removes the opportunity for us to sit in ‘rest and digest’.

The biggest stressor in our lives is the emotional part. The first thing that happens when we have an argument with someone, is that our head cranes forward and our shoulders rise up.

All the blood is now away from your brain, and it’s gone straight to the extremities to help you run away or wrestle and use up all that adrenaline – it’s our primal state.

The problem is that we aren’t using it up! We aren’t running, moving, wrestling a lion to the ground or even walking enough. We are sitting down up to eight hours a day in our laptop lifestyles.

How can we remove the stress hormones or at least decrease them, and increase the serotonin and oxytocin?

These are the love and feel-good hormones. Apart from physical exercise, there’s also healthy movement that happens when we are touching others and ourselves.

One solution could be orgasms!

An orgasm helps to balance your hormones which can assist the health of your overall wellbeing. It’s more than just relieving stress from your mind. You’re stimulating blood flow, creating more movement, slowing your breathing and deeper breathing, and it can help blood circulation.

It also spikes your DHEA levels. The DHEA hormone improves brain function, balances the immune system, helps maintain and repair tissue, and promotes healthy skin. The benefits are endless, all because you’re more relaxed, and moving and breathing better.

Orgasms may help regulate your cycle just because the hormones are balancing out. They also may help keep you in shape, improve sleep and help you feel closer to your partner. However, you don’t necessarily need a partner to claim the benefits of an orgasm when you have the help of toys.

Connection with yourself and others…

Let’s touch on connection and being single in the modern dating and pandemic era. Using dating apps or even sliding into DMs on Instagram can be an amazing way to connect with others, so #instalovers will help you have respectful connections and safe online interactions, help you to understand the flirt game online and turn those texts into dates!

Whatever you decide though, know your boundaries and I’d recommend you be protected and prepared with condoms if you do decide to share sacred space with someone.

Don’t forget self-care and self-love is important too. You don’t have to wait for your perfect partner, you can also explore being your own pleasure state.

The sex toy industry is booming as we turn to self-pleasure and remove stigmas around using toys.

The choices are varied and the choice is yours! With so many options in colours, sizes, and textures – every taste is catered for.

We guarantee you didn’t even realise that some look so discreet. There’s also a range of fashionable looking vibrators that you’d be proud to display on your bedside table. It’s your reminder to self-care regularly, just like how you display a candle on your night stand.

So now you can add these toys to your list of things ‘to do’ next time you’re feeling overwhelmed.

Don’t wait until you’ve got a headache.  See if you can lower stress hormones and improve your health before it gets to migraine stage! All your packages can be sent discreetly too. Don’t worry, we know it’s your Wild Secret.
