I've been on a sort of health kick: taking yoga, eating lots of greens and organics, and exploring the idea of body as temple. It has been helpful in keeping my presence in my body fully. All too often, I live in my head. Sex, of course, is a great way of being fully present in the body-sometimes to the point that the mind seems to dissolve into it.
Focusing on the health of my body, my first temple, has allowed me slow the pace of my mind's process. Helps me focus on the here and now, instead of a constant worry about the future (what will happen, am I prepared for it? what about contingency plans?) and to just let things be. It has helped me focus on myself in the moment.
My yoga teacher asked us to thank everyone who loved us into being during our meditation (legs up in the air, heels against the wall). There were many people to thank: my parents, my family, my close friends. But I also wanted to thank my clients here, all those who loved this inner harlot out into being.
