Spooning

The ultimate cosy classic, Spooning is all about staying close, getting comfortable and taking things at your own pace. Both partners lie on their sides, with one partner behind the other, creating a naturally close and relaxed shape.

To get into position, start by lying side by side while facing the same direction. The partner behind can move closer and wrap their arms around their partner, while the partner in front can adjust their legs and hips until they feel comfortable. A pillow between the knees or under the head can make the position even more relaxed, especially if you plan on staying there for a while.

This shape is perfect for slowing things down and focusing on connection. Add a massage, kisses, gentle touch or a little whispered flirting to make it feel more intimate. You can also introduce a wearable toy or small vibrator for an extra element of fun without needing to completely change positions.

The best part about the spooning shape is how easy it is to make your own. Change your positioning, add extra pillows, put on some music or simply stay wrapped up together. Sometimes keeping things simple is exactly what you need.
