Use temperature play - Incorporate ice cubes, warm oils, or temperature contrasts to add a new dimension to touch.
Incorporate power dynamics - Gentle dominance/submission or roleplay can heighten the thrill of foreplay.
Take it slow - Don't rush through foreplay; savor the experience and let arousal build gradually.
Use your breath - Synchronized breathing or gentle breath on erogenous zones can be incredibly arousing.
Tease and build anticipation - Use light touches, whispers, and slight withdrawals to create a sense of excitement.
