Practices for Sexuality

…to attain a magician’s power, one must relinquish the impulse to force and conquer. To change anything in an alchemical way, you must allow it to change you. ~On Becoming an Alchemist

After a week of talking about Flipping the Script on Sexuality, the practices today encourage you to be aware of sensations in your whole body.

1st Practice: Body Scan

  • Sit in a comfortable position.
  • Close your eyes.
  • Focus on the top of your head and slowly bring your attention to each part of your body.
  • Start at the crown of your head, working your way down to your forehead, face, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, neck and so on. All the way down to your feet and each toe.
  • Notice the sensations that are happening with each part of your body.
  • What is the temperature?
  • Do you feel a buzzing or a tingling?
  • Notice if you are trying to control the sensation in any way.
  • Notice if paying attention increases a sensation.
  • See what else you notice.
