Taoist Sexual Wisdom - Revive Your Sex Drive

Your Body's Self-Healing Ability

"The art of healing comes from nature, not from the physician. Therefore the physician must start from nature, with an open mind." - Paracelsus

The Taoists were aware of the body's ability to heal itself, so they designed their practices to reinforce the strength of the body (focusing on well being), rather than trying to kill germs (focusing on the disease).

If you are familiar with the The Law of Attraction, you will notice the obvious benefit of the Taoists approach to healing.

Whatever you focus on grows, while whatever your resist persists.

Perhaps this is why Western healthcare is failing. It's the perpetual cycle of drugs and treatments aimed at getting rid of the symptoms and disease rather than focusing on well being and restoring health.

Meditation isn't magic or voodoo, it's simply you telling your body how you want to feel and backing it up with energy (your attention and focus) which reinforces your body's self-healing mechanism.

The way to heal your self is from within, not in some miracle drug.

Drugs can help us while we figure things out, yet at some point we've got to allow our bodies to do the healing.

By adopting regular energy work through basic chakra meditations or with energy healers, making lifestyle changes like the ones mentioned earlier, and the exercise that follows, you can fully charge your own battery of energy in your body.

Conserving the Energy of Ejaculation

Most guys have no idea the amount of power and life force that our body directs to the creation of semen and the process of ejaculation. If they did, perhaps they would change the way they view sexual interactions from "I hope I get lucky tonight" to "I hope I find a woman worthy of sharing a sexual interaction with me."

From The Great Tao,

"The physiological function of the prostate gland is ejaculation. When the penis is stimulated, the prostate swells with secretions. These secretions contain nutrients, hormones and vital energy.

They constitute the semen which is the substance that serves as carrier for the sperm. (Sperm is produced in the testicles).

When the average male ejaculates, he loses about one tablespoon of semen. According to research, the nutritional value of this amount of semen is equal to two pieces of New York steak, ten eggs, six oranges and two lemons combined! That includes proteins, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, etc.

An ejaculation also represents a great deal of lost energy. This is demonstrated by how tired a man feels after ejaculation. A popular expression for this is "coming". The word for it should be going, because everything goes away: energy, hormones, nutrients, even a little of his personality! It is a great sacrifice for a man. He gives much away spiritually, mentally, emotional and physically." -Stephen Chang, The Great Tao

The Energy Transfer of Sex

It's easy to get caught up in society's values when it comes to sex. Guys that have sex with many women have greater social status and so on. Many guys treat sex or masturbation like a drug, a way to get a quick high of pleasure from and go on with life.

They don't realize the deeper aspects of sex. Stephane teaches the idea like this,

"As our consciousness rises to higher levels, we start to realize that sex involves MUCH more than just jumping up and down on each other and exchanging body fluids....

Sex is a Sacred Act.

The fact is, sleeping around is a very ignorant thing to do. Sex is a very, very, very big deal... when two people sleep together, they are opening up to each other on some very profound emotional and energetic levels.

When we are having sex with someone, the Chakras open wide, along with many other energetic portals, and the people having sex are kind of "downloading and uploading" energy into each other.

This is why, if you have sex with someone who is depressed for example, you will get something like a "depression STD" (energetically, emotionally). Sex opens us up so much, and I really feel for those who are in these 'open relationships'. Not healthy." -Stephane

The Taoists believe this as well,

"Aging occurs when non-Taoists methods of intercourse deplete the body's energy and cause a great deal of tension. (This tension blocks the body's ability to receive energy.)

Also, if one of the partners has a very low energy level, he or she will drain energy from the other person, since energy travels from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. Even if a couple is on the same energy level, an energy loss can still result." -Stephen Chang, The Great Tao
