Looking to rekindle the sexual intimacy in your relationship? Here’s how your bedroom space can get you in the mood.

If you have been struggling with sexual intimacy in your relationship, you’re not alone. As with other aspects of your relationship (i.e. communication, trust), keeping that physical intimacy alive in your relationship is something that requires effort daily from both you and your partner.

Interestingly, relationship experts have now found that your bedroom decor can actually help (and conversely hinder) your sex life. According to sexologist and relationship therapist Jessica O’Reilly, how you choose to decorate your bedroom isn’t just a matter of aesthetics. The scents, sounds and objects in your bedroom all subtly influence the intimacy in your space, she says.

Get this: even leaving your phone charger on your bedside table or having certain photographs on your walls can profoundly affect your sex life, for instance! Who knew?

It’s no secret that your environment can significantly affect your mood after all, which is why it might be worth noting how your bedroom decor has been affecting your sexual intimacy in your relationship. To make it easier for you to slip into that sensual mood for love-making, find out what in the gallery above!
