Sexual Adjuncts Found in Nature

“To know when you have enough is to be immune from disgrace.”
―Lao Tzu

The use of objects found in nature to help satisfy you or your partner’s sexual desires is limited only by your imagination―see Chapter 5: Preparation Be Fore Play―and a few rules. You’re on your own with the imagination part, but here are the rules:

1. Your choice of nature’s offerings should be agreed upon beforehand by all parties concerned. Believe it or not, some folks don’t like the feel of salamanders.
2. Living flora are generally more accepting of a role as a sexual device than living fauna. Consider how a rabbit feels about being used in cancer research.
3. You don’t have to negotiate with dead objects, but you should respect them.
4. There are soft pinecones and there are hard pinecones. There are small pinecones and there are large pinecones. Be careful!
5. Know your mushrooms well.
6. Cockleburrs, and other prickly plants, are out . . . regardless of their names.
7. Feathers are in, especially if they are no longer attached to the bird . . . unless it’s a very sexy bird.

Some herbs found in nature have been used for centuries to enhance the sexual experience. These, in case you’ve forgotten, are known as aphrodisiacs. If you’re hiking around in Mexico or the southwestern United States, for instance, keep an eye peeled for damiana, Turnera aphrodisiaca, well known for its aphrodisiac effect. About one hour before sex, make a strong infusion of the herb by steeping approximately 4,000 damiana leaves in approximately 18 gallons of boiling water for 10 minutes. When the water has cooled, soak in it until you’re ready for intercourse. It gently stimulates the genito-urinary region. If you’re in a hurry, or without an 18-gallon container, make a cup of damiana tea and drink it. It might work. If you’re not in a hurry, try the recipe recommended by Dr. Cynthia Mervis Watson in her delightful book Love Potions: The Doctor’s Guide to Aphrodisia. Soak about an ounce of dried damiana leaves in a pint of vodka for five days. If the vodka-damiana combo fails to work, at least you won’t care as much.

Other naturally occurring aphrodisiacs include wild yams (another native of Mexico), saw palmetto berries, licorice root, ginkgo, sarsaparilla, kola nuts, red clover, and bee pollen. For recipes contact the Institute for Better Living Outdoors at (800) 555-5555 or (www.IBLO.org).
