Once you’ve got a partner and teammate, you will often think about them. Your relationship can only get better from there.
Dual meditation can build consideration for others. When men meditate with their partners, they hear their partners' breathing, become aware of their process to reach their personal quiet place, and learn the intimate steps necessary to help them get there.

Resolving Insecurities

Your time in the bedroom will be enhanced because you took the time to know your lovers' body outside of it. And maybe men will be freed as well from their own insecurities during that process.
Growing Love
Ultimately, meditating with your lover can create a sense of teamwork, understanding, and open communication. Meditation is about getting in touch with yourself and the world around you. It's about relaxing and finding yourself in the moment and in the space. So, doing meditation with a lover can only make you more aware and in touch with the other important person in the room.
