The benefits of Energetic Sex…
Because this letter is so powerfully touching (and I got permission to post it), here it is in it’s entirety…
Hey You!
I’m writing to share some big shifts in my experience that feel connected to your energy workshop.
Nearly a week later I continue to be amazed at the huge shift I feel when I “straighten my hooks”. I’m referring to the velcro analogy you gave for disengaging with another person’s energy. I thought it might be a fluke, or my imagination, so I keep testing it and I am continually amazed. I get a bit teary just writing it…
The image I see around what I feel (physical sensation and emotion is how it hits me first and sometimes images come later) is me huddled under a large raincoat in a storm, my body is tensed against the winds buffeting me and the cold of the water dripping in. I “straighten my hooks” and instantly it changes to blue skies with a warm sun. Birds are singing, for crying out loud! Reid, this happens whether I’m with someone else or not. It’s like the energy I’m picking up isn’t localized or specific, it’s in thoughts and in the atmosphere, like weather. I have felt victimized by it and also thought that it was me. Straightening my hooks is evidence that it isn’t me – at least not the pure essence of me. It’s giving me access to sanctuary (again the emotion – I’m so dramatic!). I’m beginning to be able to look at it as something not personal, not me nor intended for me from another. Like it’s something we’re all influenced by but isn’t truly any one of us. Does that make sense?
Also, for as long as I can remember – even before I was aware of it, I would wake up in the morning with a weight in the center of my chest. A sense of heaviness about the day ahead and a resistance to push through. That has changed. I feel solid and connected in my heart when I awake. I feel present with myself. It is much easier to get out of bed. Maybe I haven’t spent my sleep state in a combat zone.
Keep spreading the love and light that you are. You have made a huge shift for good in my life and I bet I have lots of company in that. Thank you for doing what you’re here to do. It’s excellent!
With Love,
