Sex Helps You De-Stress
There's no doubt yoga is a great stress-reducer, but sometimes the stress of making it to class outweighs the benefits. Instead, you can ditch your favorite yoga pose -- and the hassle of hauling ass to a studio -- in favor of striking your preferred sexual position from the comfort of your bedroom (or wherever it is you like to do the deed).

Sex not only helps lower your blood pressure, but it improves your ability to handle mentally stressful situations. According to findings published in "Biological Psychology" by Scottish researchers, individuals who had sex were better able to perform stressful tasks -- like verbal arithmetic and public speaking -- better than those who remained abstinent.

Sex Makes You Smarter
While many of us can easily rattle off the latest celebrity gossip or "Real Housewives" plotline, we may struggle a bit when it comes to speaking knowledgeably about (non pop culture-related) current affairs. If boosting your brainpower is one of your goals for 2016, you can't go wrong with picking up a book. Need help retaining that info? Sex is the answer.

In a recent study scientists found that middle aged mice had better memory function and -- get this -- grew new brain cells after mating.

So go ahead: Partake in a little, um, recreational stimulation, and you'll be able to regale friends with equally stimulating conversation about worldly matters -- and your amazing sex life.
