For many people, anal play can bring with it all sorts of curiosities, fears, questions and uncertainties. So here are my top 5 tips for exploring and experiencing pleasurable anal play.

  1. Communication Is Key
    Make sure to have a chat about needs, desires and boundaries and don’t be afraid to talk through any fears (perhaps of mess or pain) that you may have. Chances, you’re not alone in any apprehension you may be experiencing, so talk it out beforehand so you can receive any reassurance you may need.
  2. Go Slow
    It's important to give your body time to open. Don’t push through pain, instead listen to your body and allow it the space to soften and open if you are receiving. To help yourself drop into the body, why not a gentle massage with The Body Oil?
  3. Breathe
    Your breath is going to be biggest ally when it comes to anal pleasure as it is a great way to help your body to relax.
  4. Start small
    You may like to start by incorporating gentle touching, pressing and massaging of the anus and the area around the anus. Once comfortable with this, you may wish to progress to penetration with either a fingertip or a toy. I recommend The Aura Glass Pleasure Wand, it has two different sized ends for beginner and intermediate play.
  5. Lubrication is key!
    The Anal Lubricant is going to be your best friend when it comes to backdoor play. Unlike the vagina, the anus is not self lubricating so it’s really important to use a great quality lubricant. Yinn’s lubricant is super slippery, absorbs into the anus and is compatible with all condoms and toys - joy!

Having super pleasurable sexual experiences is a totally learnable skill and this absolutely goes for anal play too.

So take your time lovers, and enjoy.
