Let’s get down to the basics – Yum! Good!! Part 2
The founder of Diamond Heart work, AH Almaas writes, “Sexuality is a part of our basic nature. It is true acceptance and integration of our bodies and genitals; it is free and unconflicted Presence in our pelvis. It is our being, our Essence, allowed to exist and flow in our pelvis, to engorge our genitals. It is the experience of ourselves as pleasure, as delight, as beauty, as value.”
These eloquent words put a spiritual spin on Wilhelm Reich’s basic thesis that our erotic impulses are fundamental, vital to who we are as human beings. As you can tell, I’m still ruminating over the term asexual from a previous post on here. Forget all of the reading, the hours of studying somatics – deep in my soul I believe that erotic expression is essential to our very existence. Denying that part of ourselves makes us incomplete. Hey, don’t hate me cuz I’m pretty – this is what I believe.
Stand at any street corner or park yourself at a Starbuck’s and watch how men shift their pelvis as they move. You can usually spot who is tightly constricted or who is moving freely in their hips. Or, said another way, try and imagine who might be a good lover in bed (don’t even try to tell me you’ve never done this on a DAILY basis) and then work backwards, asking yourself what is it about this man that leads me think this? Most likely it is how they move in their bodies. And their nice butt….After all, it’s all about the basics!!
This image is one of a photo shoot I did at the beginning of the SE work, about 5 years ago (gasp! That’s a lifetime in doggie years). I highly recommend this guy for your online profile, head shots for a job or resume, or even to send to mother. Bill is a friendly guy and his prices are affordable – he even has a full closet of costumes for fantasy shots, plus he does excellent erotic photoshoots. His name is Bill McClaren and his studio is in West Oakland you can check out his portfolio here.
