What is the way to decrease sexual desire?

THE OPTIMAL WAY for a male: b/c it's more common for a man to get more easily aroused is: avoid having things directly touch your pelvic area, including your own hands. Wear boxers as opposed to underwear to leave room. Breath slowly and steadily through your abdomen in order to concentrate on relaxation. Relaxation will only typically increase arousal when it includes fantisizing or REM sleep. As long as you are conscious but relaxed, you have a greater capacity to slow the flow of blood to your pelvic area.


For the spiritual answer: Use this statement and repeat it until you are no longer sexually aroused- G-d created me with a pure heart, and I came into existence with a proper spirit in His holy midst. Guaranteed if you concentrate on that statement and anything that is pure- you will be able to diminish your drive temporarily.


the traditional religious advice is: do not follow your heart or your eyes...meaning? DO not allow what you desire in your heart based on what is pleasing to your eye- drive you to action- look away if you only want that thing for pure gratification- whether it's a man, a woman or anything arousing desire.


Another psychological suggestion: avoid anything that increases arousal- meaning avoid Horror movies, avoid violence, avoid songs with seductive voices or lyrics, avoid alluring perfumes- go into a public setting where it is inappropriate to be overtly sexual- it will be sobering.
