Pheromones – Can You Tell?

All animals use the sense of smell to tell them a lot of information about other members of their species. The only exception to this rule is with dolphins and whales. Their specific ‘noses’ migrated to the top of their heads as blowholes and thus they don’t have the benefit of smell that they once had eons ago. They do have, however, a very sophisticated system based on pheromones, as do the other animals in our fair kingdom. It turns out that when researchers turn off the nerve in rats that connects the brain to the small, specialized area of the olfactory bulb that understands the signals that pheromones send, the rats don’t mate.   More…

The Curious Association of The G-spot and The Upper Palate

I often teach that to find where the G-spot is, in a woman, and how it might feel, you can simply put your thumb in your mouth and feel the rougher, ridged area just beyond your teeth, on the top part of your mouth. Beyond that ridged area is the upper palate and halfway between the upper palate and the ridges is the area that is analogous to the G-spot. I find it fascinating that the upper palate seems so close in structure to the vagina and G-spot area. More…

Everything You Do

Everything you do in life has the potential to be transformational. At every moment you have the opportunity to change your experiences for the better.  Practicing staying present, focused and in the ‘Now' is the path to inspiring transformational change. Though it may begin to sound like a cliché there isn't anything closer to the truth. More…

Witnessing Spring

I'm reminded of Witness Consciousness today. Spring is busting out all over the place and this makes it relatively easy to be hyper conscious of the beauty and life that is all around us.  Forget stress, the economy and my messy house - it's bursting out there! It takes many varying practices to become more conscious. Right now I'm paying attention to nature in all of its glory. Last night I was paying attention to breath, sensual sensations and my G-spot. Later today I will even pay good attention to finishing my taxes. It's all the same. Really. More…

Setting Intentions and Keeping Intentions

I'm reading about and thinking about setting intentions and keeping intentions. It turns out that people who have more self-control have an area in their brains that is more highly developed than those who do not keep their promises to themselves. And because our brains are so 'plastic' it is possible for each of us to increase this area of our own brains by practicing more self-control. Ok, 3 choc-covered almonds, not five! Why would we want to do this? Self-control sounds like a dirty word sometimes but if you finesse it to harness its power then you have a tool in your basket that can help you discern and stick to the kinds of things that will make you happier about your life and yourself.

Becoming - Creating Your Own Reality

“The phrase ‘to meditate’ does not only mean ‘to examine, observe, reflect, question, wish’; it also has, in the Sanskrit, a more profound meaning, which is ‘to become’." Krishnamurti More…

Kama Sutra – The Tsetse Fly

It's been discovered that if you can stop the genital rubbing of the female tsetse fly then you can slow down the reproduction rate. Duh. (This is important because the tsetse fly carries sleeping sickness in Africa.) Science Daily reports that: "By snipping off parts of male genitalia and reducing genital sensation in both male and female tsetse flies, researchers induced a suite of changes in female reproduction, including reduced ovulation and reduced sperm storage. This is wonderful news, though I don't know how scientists will stop the genital rubbing. How are they going to go around snipping off parts of the male's genitals? More…

Sex Science Books and Other Odd Bits You Need for Summer Fun

A while back I read Mary Roach’s Bonk. She’s a journalist who writes about interesting subjects with odd twists and a great sense of dry humor. Bonk is her third book and is about, well, bonking. In one of the chapters she discusses going to Europe with her husband and getting into an imaging machine that takes images of their interiors as they ‘bonk’. Yes, how the lingam meets and greets the yoni! There are a myriad of possibilities! More…

Making Noise to Help You and Your Lover Understand the Pleasure Cycle

I’m an advocate for making noise when you’re experiencing pleasure. Making noise during sexual play is a turn-on and helps you know where your partner is in the sexual response cycle. The signs of arousal and stimulation, especially in women, are very hard to interpret, even with sound added. When you open up your mouth to let sound out, you literally open up the body cavity and allow the energy and pleasure to be transported throughout your body. The fifth chakra, your throat chakra area, is all about speaking your truth. It is the ultimate act of claiming that truth to let it be known during pleasurable sexual activities. More…

‘Tis The Season to Be Jolly – Right?

I love happy people. Most of us all love and want to be around happy people. But I think I’ve learned the most from those who are temporarily in a funk – only, however, if they confess to it and ask for help. I had an interesting reminder of this recently and it has really stuck with me since then. More…
