So chronic stress and anxiety can hamper sexual function. Because the brain is a larger sexual organ, in order for you to get an erection, your brain and your penis has to be relaxed. So try to incorporate stress reduction technique into your daily life such as meditation, deep breathing through the nose, in and out, and doing yoga. You can use the meditation app such as Calm and Insight they can download to your phone. You can listen to meditation music and follow along with the breathing. I recommend nasal breathing, so by doing these practices you can decrease anxiety and promote more relaxation and enhance your sexual responsiveness.
