CBD is probably already doing something to better your life, whether it’s easing period cramps, helping you deal with anxiety, mitigating various skin issues, or helping you sleep. But what if we told you it can also help you have really good sex? Cannabis-based lubes can make a huge difference for some, not to mention that sex just feels better when you’re relaxed, period, and these weed sex positions might be just what you need to turn that relaxed feeling into a toe-curling orgasm.

“Sex can sometimes give us major anxiety; whether it’s because of past trauma, body shame or just not being able to relax. Good CBD products can help allow us to slowly open up and get us from our heads into our bodies. The more we feel safe in our bodies, the more pleasure we can experience,” says Erica Wiederlight, sexual empowerment coach at We The Light.

Keep in mind there aren't a ton of legit studies on CBD and sex. CBD lovers say it increases blood flood to the vagina, clit, and anus, which translates to deeper arousal. CBD's anti-inflammatory qualities can help folks with sexual pain. (FWIW, CBD is not the same as regular weed, which contains THC and activates the sexual arousal part of the brain. Nobody will be getting high on CBD except on life.) And just the ritual of using something like a CBD lube can help with arousal if you need to rub it into your vulva for a certain period to feel the effects. All that makes you automatically more mindful and attuned to your body.

Below, some ways to make the most of your next CBD sex sesh.

Try it with toys

“Pairing your favorite sex toy with a CBD lubricant or serum is a great combination for increasing arousal, wetness, orgasm intensity and more,” says Rebecca Alvarez Story, certified sexologist and founder of Bloomi. “You can massage an arousal serum onto your intimate areas, including the vulva, clitoris, vagina and penis.” (Anuses too.) When you’re ready to get it on, lube up the toy as well. (Use a water-based formula that’s latex- and silicone-compatible.)

Be patient

Massage products in about 15-20 minutes before getting super hot n’ heavy. It lets the product start to work its magic on your body, plus the process of massaging it in and then having to wait is excellent enforced foreplay.

Try it to alleviate painful sex

“Foria makes an Intimate Suppository that doubles as a lubricant. This helps relax the pelvic floor, which can prevent pain from deeper penetration. It can also help with vulvodynia and vaginismus by helping to relax the muscles,” says Sara Sloan, LMFT-Associate, a relationship and sex therapist at Austin Concierge Therapy. “They also make a stronger Relief Suppository, which is perfect for after sex, particularly for anyone who has pelvic floor issues such as intercystial cystitis or endometriosis.”

Now that we’ve covered the basics, grab your favorite CBD lube or arousal gel and go to town with these 14 positions.

The Eat Me

Start by sharing a CBD chocolate to set the stage, then pair it with face-sitting and a CBD arousal serum that’s not only edible, but yummy too. “This will not only feel pleasurable for the receiver, but it’ll taste really good for the partner who’s performing oral sex” says Alvarez Story. (Note to face-sitters: Hover, don’t sit sit.)

The Bender

As long as you’re extra lubed up and relaxed, try a more challenging position. “Legs over shoulders is the perfect one to start with, especially as it gives great access for nipple and clitoral play. Lube up your vagina or anus thoroughly before assuming the position, and use another squirt of lube to play whilst your partner pounds,” says Ruby Payne, dominatrix and sex expert at adult toy retailer UberKinky.

The Squirt Whisperer

Because CBD relaxes the muscles, that relaxation might make squirting a possibility, say Her Highness founders Laura Eisman and Allison Krongard. If you want to see if it works for you, go ahead and smear your magic elixir over your vulva and inside your vagina. Prop yourself among a throne of pillows and get some clit stim going with toys or fingers. Meanwhile your partner curls a finger or fingers into your vagina, pressing and rubbing on the top wall about an inch or so in. (A curved internal vibrator or dildo also works.)

The Back-Up Plan

If you or your partner are a little anxious about anal, a CBD suppository can help. Slide it in, then wait. “The warmth of your body will melt the oil-based formula and it'll be absorbed through the juicy blood vessels in your bottom in as little as 10 minutes,” says Boronia Fallshaw, founder of Mello. Make the entry easier by using the melting time to rub and play with the anus and genitals. “CBD suppositories help relax the lower body, increase arousal, ease performance-based anxiety and stimulate orgasm,” says Fallshaw.

The Lap of Love

Edible CBD oil makes oral totally delectable for both the giver and the receiver. A few sprays for your mouth, a few sprays on a nearby vulva or bum, wait 10 minutes, then get to it. “The texture, scent and taste appeal to all the senses so that you'll want to take your time—which is beneficial to all part(ies) involved,” says Karyn Eilber, MD, Associate Professor of Urology and Obstetrics & Gynecology at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and co-founder of Glissant, makers of luxe lubricants.

Double your dose with an anal suppository in the back and a slippery oil for your clit. Assume the little spoon position while your partner penetrates you anally with a penis, strap-on or a finger. In the front, rub a vibe-safe CBD oil on a vibrator and let yourself be carried away with pleasure.

The Tied Wide Vibe

Give your partner a deliciously torturous build up by binding them to allow them to submit to the experience. (And vice versa—this so works on you too.) “Apply CBD-infused oil directly to the clitoris, and allow the oil to take affect for 10 to 20 minutes,” suggests Diana Urman, PhD, LCSW, certified sexologist and sex and relationships therapist. “Meanwhile, gently start massaging her outer labia, and work your way to the clitoris while the oil starts penetrating the skin to increase blood circulation and the level of arousal. Then, take your favorite vibrator and begin to gently stimulate the areas surrounding vulva, starting with the inner thighs and continue to the clitoris, proceeding, if desired, with penetrating her vaginal opening for the ultimate pleasure. This position allows for a slow build up of arousal, deliberate and titillating tease with no resistance, and the possibility of increasing orgasmic ability due to the level of relaxation induced by the CBD-infused oil.”

The Super Soaker

Do some sex + skincare multi-tasking with a soak in a warm tub infused with sexy, luxe CBD oil laced with exotic scents like Elemi and Himalayan Cedarwood. Sit between your partner's legs while they give you a slippery reach-around handie, or charm you with a waterproof (f-ing important!) toy. Use a product that will not only leave you with an orgasm or two, but an ultra-relaxed body and “soothed, rejuvenated, silky soft skin,” says Janet Schriever, owner of Code of Harmony.

The Smooth Reverse Cowgirl

Haven't quite figured out the logistics of reverse cowgirl? “When you're on top, things are straightforward enough, but the angles you're working with in reverse cowgirl can be tricky,” say Kate Miller and Anna Duckworth, co-founders of Miss Grass. “The same angles that make it *so great* can also cause some unpleasant pressure if you're not careful. For us, Smooth Operator solves this problem. You (or your partner) just apply a couple pumps while you're in position and let it ride. The soft, supple texture of aloe vera and soothing CBD makes finding and keeping a comfortable rhythm easy. Feeling that peak comfort means you can quite literally lean into this power position confidently, and find your way to peak pleasure.”

Be more chill in cowgirl with warm CBD oil. “Slowly lean back onto your partner's legs, keeping them inside you and encouraging them to warm some Simple Jane Temptress Topical Aphrodisiac oil on their fingertips to gently apply to your nipples, working their way down to your clitoris,” says Chelsea Hamilton, cofounder and sales director for Simple Jane. “The warming quality of the oil will heighten arousal and blood flow to these sensitive areas, as the CBD works to relieve tension and enhance the experience.”

The Blunt Orgasm

If you want to experiment with more internal sensations, try a sex massage. Have your partner rub some CBD oil onto the labia, the clitoris, and inside your vagina for about 15-20 minutes for maximum pleasure. Then just lie back and enjoy while your partner curls a finger or two and massages the top wall of the vagina, adding extra clit stim if you're feeling it.

The Stoned 'n' Boned

Cannabis products don't do a ton for penis-havers, but they can ease the way for anal—either giving or receiving. Insert a CBD suppository anally, then insert a butt plug. “Cuddle, kiss, and have yummy affectionate touch for 10 to 15 minutes, then remove the butt plug,” says Ashley Manta, sex and relationship coach at CannaSexual. “Using lots of lube, take deep breaths and intentionally relax your body. Super duper slowly, the receiver lowers themselves down on the penetrating partner. If it hurts, something is wrong. Slow down and do more warm up or stop altogether.” The receiver gets to control the pace and depth of the penetration while the suppository increases pleasurable sensation and reduces discomfort without numbing. (Note: “Oil degrades latex, so be sure to use a non-latex barrier like nitrile or polyurethane for safer sex needs,” cautions Manta.)

Turn a morning cuddle into something more serious with cannabis-infused Night Moves Intimate Oil, recommends Cyo Nystrom, CEO and cofounder of Quim. “Wait for that to kick in, then slip into the little-spoon position.” You'll feel the vasodilating effects that increase blood flow to the sex organs, natural lubrication, and sensation, she says. “What starts as a snuggle sesh can quickly escalate to a full-blown morning romp with many other positions.” (Note: Night Moves Intimate Oil is only available in California.)

The Insomniac's Release

Can't sleep but don't want to wake your partner? Head to another room for porn and a sleep-inducing orgasm, recommends Nystrom. “Despite the fact that no condoms will be necessary for a solo sesh, apply our fast-acting, cannabis-infused Oh Yes! Latex-Safe Serum” she says. It takes 3-7 minutes to kick in, and trust, you'll know.
