Integrated Sexuality
Each of us has within us an aliveness; a vitality that expresses who we are. Each of us has the capacity to be potent, powerful, affectionate, creative, active and connected. We live most fully when we are able to maintain contact with our own bodies and our own inner ecosystems. From here we are better able to appreciate the wholeness of ourselves within our relationships and to interface with and contribute to the world around us.
Integrating our sexuality is about being comfortable and responsible wielding the power that is our inherent nature; whether we choose to share and connect it in loving play with others, or focus it in creative or other transformational expressions. Our bodies are the container for our Life-Force Energy.
Healthy systems Contain, Connect and Create
Many of us, sometimes without our conscious awareness, have experienced life events that overwhelm our systems, bypassing the natural neural pathways that allow for connection, intimacy and satisfaction, and prioritising those geared towards survival.
The experience of such Trauma causes us to switch into more protective and reactive parts of the brain. Our capacity to experience higher cognitive function and to respond to the world around us in healthy, boundaried and pro-social ways becomes constrained.
Discovering your Integrated Sexual Self is a process of increasing your capacity to tolerate and enjoy the full range of life again: pleasure and pain, togetherness and aloneness, certainty and confusion. There is a place in you that can navigate everything life throws at you, prioritise what you need to thrive and grow in your life and make peace with the past held in your body so you can lean into your future with an inner strength, soft breathe and open curiosity.
