They say variety is the spice of life, and variety is definitely the key to spicing up your love life. Boredom and predictability are the dual kiss of death for a hot sex life. Ancient Tantrics believed it was vital to bring consciousness into lovemaking. Therefore, they felt it was important to bring a lot of variety into the bedroom in order to keep the partners interested, focused on the moment, and in tune with their own body and that of their partner.

Tantrics also believed you should avoid the trap of falling into a rut, which is more likely to happen if you stick to an old faithful routine of the same two or three positions. By constantly mixing things up and trying new techniques, it is believed you put more thought into the activity.
