1. Feel sexy. Sexual confidence starts with self-esteem. If you feel frumpy and unattractive then do whatever it takes to feel sexy again. If you haven't waxed your legs for a while get down to the beauty salon, have a new haircut or spruce up your underwear drawer.
2. Switch on. Use fantasy to get in touch with your libido and get to know your own body and what makes you feel aroused.
3. Love your body. Men are turned on by a woman who's got sexual confidence, rather than one who has a perfect figure. Accept the cellulite, the wrinkles and the love handles. Think yourself sexy.
4. Sexual move. Become skilled in a particular sexual move, whether it's simple and honest or daring and exciting. But be sure it is something you feel confident in being able to carry off.
5. Be demanding. Don't settle for second best and be demanding in bed. Be brave and ask for what you want. Men aren't mind readers so if he's not pressing the right buttons, then put him right.
6. Experiment. Ask about his desires and take the time to explore his body. Try new caresses and experiences together and you'll be surprised what new sensations you can experience.
7. Make first move. Don't just lie there. If you are guilty of waiting for your man to make all the moves then take the initiative in bed.
8. Spice it up. Don't let your sex life get stale. When going to bed becomes sex- by-numbers then it's time to introduce a new angle. Use erotic literature, films or sex toys to shake up an old routine.
