When Your Brain is an A*****e OMG-Spot

- Sexuality
Does the “Upper Limit” in pleasure really exist? Or are we creating a glass ceiling to prevent too much pleasure, joy, connection, in our lives? And if so, how can you get out of your head and back into the flow of pleasure? Join Lisa and Alise as they dive into making your brain an ally to create a more fluid, joyful life.
The Upper Limit problem, and all that goes along with it, represents way too much thinking and not enough feeling.Pleasure doesn’t exist in our head…it’s in our body in the physical sensations and emotional response. When we are in our heads about it, we disconnect from the real embodiment of pleasure.
Some solutions to explore:
-Move the body. Be connected to the body. An intentional movement practice can help enhance embodiment of pleasure when the brain attempts to intervene.
-Energy follows intention, so moving our thoughts / attention to what feels good in our body can help focus attention on the pleasure rather than on the potentially complicating thoughts.
-Reframing unhelpful thoughts, even in throes of intimacy, can help the brain be an ally rather than adversary.
-Presence matters. Thoughts are feedback. What do you need most right now to be supported?
-Every act is either an act of love or a call for love. Looking at intimacy through that lens can help heal and lead to greater intimacy, or show where change may be needed.
-Accountability for our thoughts is critical. If we are taking accountability for 80% of our stuff and spending 20% in victim mode, that 20% is where the limitations and toxic/wounded thoughts and disconnection grow.
Ultimately, rather than claim the brain is an asshole and push it away and ignore it, can we love the brain anyway and allow ourselves to upgrade the programming – alchemize it through love – so we have more space and openness to receive.
