Aromatherapy to Awaken Your Sexual Spirit
July 12, 2005
Contributing Writer: Francoise Rapp
What is the connection between sex and spirituality? Everything!
Humans are in fact sexual beings and sex represents our deepest underlying self, emotions, feelings and inner child. Experts explain that during the sexual act, people reveal the most about themselves because it is at this moment that they are the most vulnerable. If you keep your guard up and have sex simply for pleasure, the flow of the kundalini (the spiritual evolutionary force of the body) is blocked and you might miss the most important purpose of this act: becoming one again with another but also with God.
Sex can be a truly profound experience that transcends the Ego and the physical body and opens your consciousness to a new realm -- the cycle of death and rebirth. Our sexual energy is incredibly powerful and by channeling it consciously and with intensity, you can reach the heights of pure bliss.
Do you want to banish sexual boredom and reconnect with your loved one? Or perhaps you simply want to spice up your relationship? It's easy to incorporate simple, innovative and amazingly effective "tools" to rejuvenate your sexuality. Understanding techniques such as Tantra, Kama Sutra and aromatherapy rituals are just the beginning. Today I offer an aromatic ritual that will reconnect you with your sexual and spiritual self, the first step toward enhancing passion, romance and even lust!
This ritual is an excerpt from our new e-mail class "Aromas & Rituals to Awaken Your Sexual Spirit." You can sign up for this special class today by visiting http://www.aromalchemy.com/classes/sexualspirit.html.
~Discover Your Sexual Spirit!~
Anoint & Breathe
Apply the aromatic blend below on the corresponding chakras: the first located at the sacrum and hips; the second located below the navel. Pour a few drops into the palms of your hands and breathe it deeply several times. Sit in a comfortable position. Lift the shoulders up and back, expanding the chest area up, open and forward.Now with your chin and head level, close your mouth and begin to take long, deep breaths through your nose. As you continue deeply inhaling and exhaling, become aware of your abdomen area, as you exhale gently and firmly squeeze or push the navel back toward your spine.
Then as you inhale, release the backward push from the navel and allow the abdominal muscles to relax forward so that area now fills with air as you continue inhaling. Continue in this way for 1 to 3 minutes.
Surrender & Feel
Stop now and remain silent. Surrender yourself to this moment. What do you see? What do you feel? Journal this experience since it will help to discover your true spirit within, accept it, welcome it and live accordingly with its needs and wants without guilt or frustration.
The Aromas
Prepare the following blend by first pouring the essential oils into a 10-ml bottle and adding organic vegetable oil to fill:
Anoint your third eye, solar plexus, abdomen and heart chakras. This blend will gently open you to the kundalini energy.
