The Art of Edging

    Want better, longer-lasting and stronger orgasms? If you're up for making your orgasms just generally, better, than this orgasm technique called 'edging' may be right up your alley (wheyy).

    Closer to the Edge

    ‘Edging' is the art of bringing someone to the very brink of climax (and we are talking toe-curlingly close here) and then holding back just enough so you can prolong the powerful sexual sensations that take place. The physical demands of being kept (or keeping oneself) in this highly excited state for an extended length of time can induce an incredibly pleasurable and almost euphoric state.

    Savings, Savings, Savings!

    Here are some tried and true techniques to help you get used to edging:

    1. Stimulate your sensitive spots in the normal way. Use slow and steady stimulation rather than a quick buildup. Switch techniques as soon as you feel the point of no return oncoming.
    2. Stop stimulating your current sensitive spot and move to another type of stimulation. Pleasuring multiple spots at once or in a session can lead to more intense orgasms over which you have more control and may even enable you to have multiple orgasms!
    3. Imagine your arousal and proximity to orgasm on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is not aroused, and 10 is right on the verge. Try to categorise where you are on the scale at any given time. Whenever you're higher than an 8 (7, if you're at the point of no return, is more fleeting!), back off, slow down or stop what you're doing entirely!
    4. Redirect your focus away from sexual stimulation entirely to prevent yourself from climaxing. One method you might find useful is to focus on your breathing. As you get closer to the point of no return, your breathing is probably quicker and more shallow, so taking the time to focus on each breath and inhale and exhale more slowly is one of the best unexpected edging techniques.

    The Big Payload

    When you first experiment with edging, you may lack the control it takes to get it right, but don't be hard on yourself. Keep practising either by yourself or with your partner, and you might soon be an edging expert. However, if you're already having trouble reaching orgasm or edging just leaves you frustrated, no rule says you have to do it. After all, different folks require different strokes – especially when it comes to sex!
