Reason
Difficulty

Both partners lie on their sides, one curled behind the other. Relaxed, close and low-effort, spooning is ideal for slow mornings and tired evenings.

How to do it

Both partners lie on their sides facing the same way, the one behind fitting against the other's back.

The partner in front draws their top knee up slightly to make room.

Movements stay small and slow, and both pairs of hands are free to hold and caress.

Tips

A cushion between the knees of the partner in front can make the angle easier.

This is one of the gentlest positions, useful when either of you has a sore back.
