My last post started me thinking about “mojo”. Where does mojo come from, and where does mojo go?
A wikipedia search reveals that ‘mojo’ is in fact an African-American magical charm bag used in hoodoo. A magical charm. It wouldn’t be unreasonable to infer that it is from these components, that the more famous usage of mojo as sexual power has been derived. Magic denotes something surprising, startling, and then, vanishing….how apt. Like Austin Powers, and these magical connotations, I often experience moments of magic mojo. My mojo and I share a strange relationship , as I’m informed do many women and their sexual prowess. One moment my mojo is draped over me like a mink fur, obtrusive and flamboyantly oozing sexuality. The next, my mojo is in hiatus. Hidden away for the winter to rest like a lazy brown bear hidden amongst layers of insulation and metres of snow. Sometimes best friends, sometimes more like estranged family members – my mojo is verging on bipolar. My poor, poor man.
Literature commonly attributes incidence of missing mojo to psychological factors – including depression, anxiety and intimacy. Not surprisingly, there is also a correlation between a loss of libido and physical wellbeing. More recently, a particular hormone released in times of stress has been identified as a culprit. Damn work. I knew somehow it was to blame.
In short, adopt a mantra of meditation, nutrition & fitness and one should expect to experience an increase in lovely, lusty libido. Check out these nutritional suggestions to increase sex drive.
