Lots of couples shower together for various reasons, from having to get out the door in a hurry or for more intimate, steamy experiences. In either case, showering together has lots of benefits for your relationship and well-being like building intimacy, relieving stress, and shaking up your usual routine. In this article, we’ll show you all the great things about showering together, plus give you tips on how to do it comfortably whether you’re getting ready for the day or trying to spice up your love life.
Why should couples take showers together?
- Showering together builds sensual, sexual, and emotional intimacy. It’s a chance to try something new and get to know each other’s bodies and quirks better.
- It relieves stress and anxiety while promoting muscle relaxation. The heat and physical touch also release oxytocin, the “feel-good” or “love” hormone.
- Showering together can also save time and water, especially if you’re both in a rush to get ready.
- Having sex in the shower is a great way to spice up your love life and shake up stagnant routines.
