99: Sensation focus - a key tool to knowing yourself sexually AND spiritually

Do you truly feel your sensations? Or are you disconnected from the language of your inner world?

In this episode, I explore the profound and transformative practice of sensation focus - learning to tune into the subtle signals of your body to deepen your connection with pleasure, self-awareness, and spiritual essence. From understanding the basics of sensation literacy to how it can unlock better orgasms and an anchored sense of self, this conversation is an invitation to step beyond a thought-based identity and into your embodied inner life.

Take a moment to pause, turn your gaze inward, and explore what your body is communicating to you right now. This episode invites you into a deeper relationship with yourself, empowering you to feel more, experience more, and ultimately, be more.

In this episode:

• Why sensation focus is essential for pleasure, self-knowledge, and spiritual fulfillment.

• How pleasure, energy, and sensation are interconnected.

• The disconnection many people feel from their inner bodies—and how to overcome it.

• Practical exercises to cultivate sensation focus, including meditative and self-pleasure practices.

• Why a thought-based identity limits your sense of self and how sensations can help bridge the gap.

• The transformative power of naming sensations and creating a nuanced "language of sensation."

• Examples of sensations you can tune into, from fluttery and pulsating to grounded and expansive.
