Sexual Energy - the key to everything
Sexual energy is most powerful and effective driving force of our existence as humans. And we all too often forget this. We do not make enough conscious contact with our sexual energy in healthy ways in today’s society, and it is the root cause of practically all our global disharmonies.
What we need to remember, is that this energy gives us life - it is from this energy that we come into existence, that we are driven to move, connect and act on a daily basis. It is from this energy that our emotional are governed, that our energy levels are governed. Coming into contact with our sexual energy brings us into contact with our bodies, our breath and our consciousness.
Because society is so polluted with unhealthy conditioning around this energy, we are disconnected to our bodies, our energies, and the root causes behind our interactions with one another. We suppress and stifle much trauma in our genital regions from very young ages, and it is apparent that almost everyone carries energies of shame and discomfort around their genitals. But this, is just another part of our body like any other! Why the anxiety, why the shame, why the constriction of freedom, why the fear? Why do we attach all these negative feelings to our genitalia?
It is because we have fallen out of spirit, out of soul. We live routine, controlled lives narrated by protecting ourselves from our fears instead of enjoying our very existence. We have lost that sacred energy, that God energy in our consciousness, all too often over thinking our lives with material concerns.
Sex must be the most profoundly sacred act, as it connects us with the miraculous ability to create new life, to regenerate energy, to transform. It connects us with that life energy which is always moving, in and out, up and down, around and around. In comes life, out goes life. And so it connects us with our heart - with our breath, which is of similar motion. In comes air, life force energy - out goes air, expulsion of accumulated waste. The rhythm of the breath and the rhythm of the heartbeat are intrinsically connected! And so breath and sex connects us with our heart... Think about how breath becomes such a conscious part of your experience when you are making love.
So in and out, constantly in flow, is the breath, the life force energy, what nourishes and replenishes and feeds our bodies and the unecessary waste-by-products. And what do we learn from flow? We learn how to move naturally, how to become unstuck and allow things to continue their movement. We don’t hold in our breath every time we inhale for fear of loosing what nourishment we have just consumed do we? We don’t hold in our poop or urine for fear that we have not yet absorbed every possible good out of it? No, we let it go. In and out. We let it flow.
This is the consciousness that sexual energy connects us with. This is the energy that we need to bring back into our mental and social awareness, that we allow flow and learn, more and more, to let go. We try to hold onto the things we think we need so desperately - our financial security and wealth, our material possessions, our storage of foods and jewels and all sorts of shit. Then this fear of loss multiplies into more areas of life - We fear loss so we need to make more money to continue to pay for insurance so help us god if we loose something and cant replace it. This desire for permanence is rooted in fear.
And so we block ourselves into stuck patterns of fear, disconnecting us from flow, therefor disconnecting us psychologically from our hearts, our breath and our sexuality. The results of this continue to multiply - as disconnection from excretion and diet and consumption, disconnection from physical sensation, control and suppression of natural urges and desires. We no longer give our bodies what they want and need, we force upon them the routine and control of our stuck minds. We become miserable with our disconnection from our bodies and punish ourselves for the negative feelings this produces, further increasing forceful habits such as forced gym excersise, forced and overly controlled diets, etc. So this attitude becomes our sexual attitude, forced and unnatural. We try to make love to each other with our minds instead of our natural instincts, forcing conditioned mental expectations onto our bodies as well as our partners, trying to repeat patterns of behaviour we have witnessed externally, untrusting of our bodies being able to know what to do naturally.
And this never feels good. We cannot connect with the sacredness in sex of we cannot connect with the naturalness of it, and so we cannot connect with the full majestic power of it. We stay stuck in the mind during this magical creative and natural experience. And as long as we are stuck in the mind, we are disconnected from the breath and the heart, the natural movement and flow of love, miracles, creation, pleasure, emotion and release.
This is the most powerful area of our consciousness to begin to bring awareness into, to begin to go deep into uncovering and releasing wounds and traumas from, in order to discover our truth and our natural, powerful states of being. Unstressed, uncontained, unconcerned.
When we heal our sexual energy, we heal our body energy, mind energy, spirit energy, and they all come together into one unified, blissful state. We are able to leap over hurdles and blockages as we become connected with flow, and the natural state and movement of all energy in the universe.
There a number of ways to begin to do this. I would always suggest close contact and guidance with a shaman or learned teacher or movement and consciousness such as myself. Yoga & meditation for me have been some of the most powerful healing experiences that connected me with my body and energy. Psychadelics and natural medicines and plants that induce various states of consciousness, helped me move out of the rigid constrictions my mind was trapped into. Conscious consumption of food, attention to bodily sensations, the function of my stomach and digestion as well as the condition of my excrement and bowel movement. Dance too!
We need to move back to spirit in order to move back to life living, connection and world healing. This all only can begin with connection to greater awareness of ourselves.
