In a world that often reduces the erotic to mere physical attraction, it’s time to reclaim its full, sacred power. At its essence, erotic embodies life force and vitality, a creative energy that connects us to our deepest emotions and spiritual yearnings. Rooted in the ancient Greek concept of Eros, the erotic represents a powerful, generative force—Creation Energy itself. This isn’t just about physical pleasure; it’s about living in alignment with our desires and stepping into a fully turned-on life, where pleasure, passion, and purpose are held as sacred.

When was the last time you felt truly aroused—not just in the familiar, physical sense, but in every fiber of your being? Arousal, in its essence, isn’t limited to intimacy or sexuality; it’s the spark of life itself. To be aroused is to feel a heightened sense of awareness, curiosity, and vitality that transcends specific moments, transforming how you experience the world around you. Today, I’m inviting you to reclaim the word “arousal” as a key to living more fully, openly, and vibrantly every day.

We’ve all been sold a myth about personal growth: that it’s a long, hard slog, a series of endless hills to climb, digging into “inner work” as if chipping away at some untamable part of ourselves. But what if we tossed out that heavy, dutiful language and opened to the idea that growth could be a pleasure—a tantalizing, guilt-free indulgence, a sweet, deepening relationship with ourselves?

What if we saw personal growth as a sumptuous, slow burn? A process of re-discovering, re-membering, and savoring the full potency of who we already are, layer by luscious layer.

Imagine a life where every cell in your body hums with yes. Where pleasure, purpose, and presence become the ingredients of each day's delicious offering. This is what I call a “turned-on life” – a way of living that invites you to step beyond the mundane and embody your most potent, liberated self.

I hold sensual pleasure as sacred. A turned on life isn’t about surface-level indulgence; it’s about honoring the full-bodied yes within you, and continuing to let it guide you back to your essence. This is the realm of Primal Feminine energy, reclaiming the power of your senses as the language of creation. 

Words like arousal, sensuality, and erotic have become tightly boxed in by society’s narrow lenses. So often, they’re whispered behind closed doors, considered “taboo” outside the realm of sexuality. Yet, this restriction only fuels the shrinking of spaces where healthy, natural expressions of our sensual and erotic selves can be freely shared.

But what if these words—words that invite us into life’s delicious depths—could mean more? What if we began to understand them as tools not just for physical intimacy but for something much bigger, something essential for our creative and expressive lives?

What if your power isn’t confined to labels of "light" and "dark"? What if there’s a deeper essence, a Primal Feminine state that transcends them both?

In today’s spiritual circles, we hear a lot about the "light" and "dark" feminine archetypes. These archetypes, while valuable, can sometimes limit us. They divide our power, asking us to fit neatly into the nurturing or fierce aspects of femininity, as if we’re one or the other.

DEFINING CHANGE
Change - the act or instance of making or becoming different - is a natural and inevitable part of life. Change itself isn’t good or bad; it’s simply a state of evolving from one thing, circumstance, or expression to another.

Change can be centered around something exciting and positive like starting a new job, buying a dream house, retiring, or welcoming a new addition to the family. It can also be prompted by more challenging situations like a medical emergency, a tragic loss, a change of role, or when a person or relationship enters a new stage of growth and development.

What does it mean to have identity? It’s a challenging concept to define because identity isn’t tangible. It is an essence. A quality of individuality.

Of youness.

Identity isn’t defined by something a person does. It is an embodied practice...

“When you get clear on how you want to feel, the pursuit itself becomes more satisfying.” -Danielle La Porte, The Desire Map

It’s the time of year when people talk about starting parts of their lives a-fresh and commit to New Year’s resolutions. Resolutions involve setting specific goals or commitments for the upcoming year. While these can be helpful for some people, they often focus on external achievements and tend to only address particular “symptoms” in life rather than the real goal of making change —

As a supportive supplement to last month’s article on The Law of Attraction, this month I’m sharing the basics of Sex Magic.Sex is an act of creation and sexual energy is one of many potent natural forces that can be harnessed to induce an altered state. You might’ve experienced this yourself already in the bedroom as a state of ecstasy, bliss, or euphoria, especially during or after sexual climax.

The Law of Attraction is a powerful spiritual concept that suggests that we shape our lives and experiences through the thoughts and emotions we cultivate.

This is built upon the premise that we are the Creators of our own realities.

Thanks to spiritual teacher, psychiatrist, and physician, David R. Hawkins, we now have evidence that our thoughts and emotions emit different vibrational frequencies. Drawing from the notion of “like attracts like,” the universe responds by bringing us circumstances and experiences that match those vibrations.

I believe that to be in-relationship, especially a romantic and/or sexual relationship, is to be on an ever-evolving spiritual journey of self-love, co-creation, and knowing the self more deeply.

Relationships are meant to reflect back to us the false stories we created about ourselves and the world as children (awareness), and to be the portal through which we let go of those stories (surrender and integration) and re-member ourselves as the divine Creators of our lives.
