		<description>If a person was walking a long time during a hot sunny day, then this person will be thirsty, probably very thirsty! Is there a certain technique necessary to satisfy this need? Or does it need a certain liquid that depends on this personality and their religion? The preferences might be different: One would like a cool beer, another one a coke - preferable &#039;light&#039;, and so on. But what they all need is water, that&#039;s what their body is longing for and indeed the best what they can drink, is pure water. If this person comes to a natural water source like a spring, then for sure will just drink and forget about their civilized programmed desires and even will highly appreciate the fresh water, although it is totally gratis! 
With meditation it is the same, if one is thirsty then the best is water and not &#039;sugar colour drinks&#039; of a specific brand and there is no special technique necessary how to drink. 
So watch my video about meditation and just start right now! Go to my blog here at WordPress.

		<description>Ann, I admire your candor and wit. Please keep writing the good story. I too have a similar history but am just now (at 32) beginning to honor my lifelong sexuality. I&#039;ve been thinking a lot lately about how my sexual interactions with my stepfather have, dare i say, wielded me with an irresistible power with men sexually, should I choose to use it. I&#039;m pleased to be at a point in my growing up where I am beginning to recognize this power and that I ultimately do not want to use it. I want to feel connected, real, sensual. I don&#039;t want to be easing up men&#039;s awkward sexualities and perversions...(trust me, I have tried everything, multiple times) and what I mean by that is that it is actually rare for me to find a deep, worthwhile man who is also sensual without being rushed and somewhat clumsy or nervous or showy in bed. There just seems to be so much ego and (boring) pornographic drive with the men I tend to wind up with. 

The last man I was with was about 12 years older than me, recently divorced and so very sexual. He took all the time in the world to just appreciate my body, to touch and caress and tickle every part, so wholly, so slowly. It was by far the most erotic experience I&#039;ve had. He shook as he touched me (made me feel like a goddess...i&#039;m a 36 A - which I also sort of relate to the abuse, but that&#039;s for another topic) and was wowed by my (non-existent) breasts so much so that after three or four nights with him they actually began to grow for the first time! I also experienced female ejaculation and vaginal orgasms for the first time in my life, with him! Unfortunately he fell deeply in love with me and I wasn&#039;t as ready for what he wanted. 

I find myself now dating someone (again) who is into bdsm/etc and I&#039;m just not feeling it. Turns out he also cannot climax and is very into porn. I love this man in many ways but I can actually feel triggered by his clumsy aggressive and what feels to me like physical evaluations of my body. He does not remind me of my abuser. He reminds me of the boys I hooked up with as a teenager afterward...boys who didn&#039;t know how or what a female actually wants and who aren&#039;t capable of slowing down to enjoy sensuality. . . like, my step father.  He was also mostly very gentle, slow, attentive and &quot;safe&quot; with me (i know how that sounds, i know) and made me actually enjoy being touched. For many years this very thing triggered me...how is it that the one person who abused me actually be the only one who ever knew how to touch and sexually care for a female? I pretty much developed PTSD over these kinds of guilty and confusing feelings. Oops, I&#039;m trailing here so I shall stop with the novella. 

Thank you again for being honest and shedding much needed light on such a taboo subject.</description>

		<description>I like the mixing of psychology and Michael teachings stuff here.  Though I feel there&#039;s a lot more material behind what I don&#039;t already recognize, so it&#039;s hard to get the big picture of what you&#039;re trying to say from just this!</description>

		<description>Just an addition to your message to Jesus freaks. Another of his bad moods. He is walking through-- I don&#039;t remember where-- and is being followed by crowds of people who are beseeching him to cure them of their various ills. He tries to walk away from them but they keep on following. Finally, he turns and in exasperation yells out at them, &quot;Heal yourselves!&quot; I think that expresses wonderfully the basic problem that many present day religious fundamentalists have. They want Jesus to &#039;save&#039; them without any effort on their part.</description>
