    Higher Consciousness Through Sex (Neurosomatic Circuit) | 203

    Higher consciousness through sex? If you've ever felt in an altered state from falling in love, taking MDMA, or really great sex, then you may have experienced what Timothy Leary called the “Neurosomatic Circuit”—the state of consciousness that comes with a deep connection between mind and body, typically through sustaining sexual arousal. This episode covers how sexual arousal can be used to enhance your emotional state, via lessons I learned intensively studying sexuality in my early 20s. Such as, why men need control of their urges, sexual dysfunctions and healing, how chronic tension effects on body, and tips on sustaining sexual arousal. 00:00 - Intro 02:00 - Arousal and consciousness 09:35 - Announcements 11:30 - 8 circuit model of consciousness 29:30 - Connection between mind and body 50:00 - Truth carries the most sensation 56:20 - Sustaining sexual arousal 01:03:15 - Anxiety and arousal 01:04:30 - Chronic tension effects on body 01:08:30 - Higher consciousness through sex
