When we begin to drop our unconscious patterns, we’re able to come alive to the present moment as it is, without all sorts of interpretations and judgements. Life feels vibrant and highly connected. You may recognise times in your life when this has been true for you, but perhaps they’re rare. Some people occasionally feel this while having sex. Others have felt it through child-birth. Some even feel it during extreme sport activities. The hunger for this state of being, is what drives us to seek to recreate the situations in which we felt it. This often happens quite unconsciously. The challenge is to recognise what we’re seeking and clear our resistances to it! The process goes increasingly deeper as we remove layers of conditioning and the blockages that prevent us from connecting with the pure sweetness of life. As you clear the muck and mire away, you become aware of a flow of energy that moves through your body and you develop sensitivity to the nuances and subtleties of that flow. It is the fundamental flow of life which is encapsulated in sexual energy. Over time, pleasure becomes less of a planned experience that operates from the mind (with all its memories and fantasies) and more of a spontaneous overflow of the heart.
