Now imagine using that energy and injecting it into whatever you\u2019re trying to manifest.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Check Your Privilege\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s address one thing before we get into the dirty details &#8211; manifestation is a weird term that can come loaded with all sorts of privilege, and honestly makes me cringe at times.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But there is something to putting an intense amount of energy into a dream, wish, or desire, and watching what happens. We all have goals and things we want out of life, so why not use every tool at our disposal to try and reach those goals?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The Power of Creation\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While this concept comes laced with heteronormativity, sex is an act of creation. Even if it\u2019s not explicitly making another human, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intimina.com\/blog\/sex-as-art\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sex is an artistic act<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and act of connection, an act of transcendence, and sometimes just plain old fun.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To create something, no matter what it is, it takes a certain amount of energy to propel that thing forward. Hence why masturbation manifestation is such a powerful tool.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Get Witchy with It<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While sex can absolutely be magical with another person (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intimina.com\/blog\/threesomes-and-moresomes\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">or more<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), it\u2019s just as powerful by yourself. In fact, all you have to focus on is me, myself, and I. Without the distraction of another human around &#8211; as pleasurable as that may be, you can put all that sweet orgasmic energy into whatever it is you\u2019re trying to create in your life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is this all feeling pretty woo-woo to you? No worries! If the words \u201cinject all your energy into it\u201d, \u201cmanifest your wildest dreams\u201d, and \u201ccreate sex magic\u201d make you feel like you got lost in a deck of tarot cards, just take from this what resonates with you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Create Your Practice<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alright, are you feeling inspired to let those *ahem* juices flow and cultivate your creativity?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To my fellow masturbation manifestors; any practice you create on your own is awesome. It\u2019s your sex life after all. But if you\u2019re wondering just how to create one, here\u2019s an idea of how to get into the zone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Create The Space<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any sort of practical magic requires a setting of the scene before getting into the nitty-gritty of it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First off, you want to be somewhere where you feel comfortable having sex with yourself. This depends on your privacy levels. Maybe you need music or white noise to block out roommates or street sounds &#8211; great, go for that!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What else do you do to set the mood and get into a ritualistic space? Are you a candle fan? Lover of incense? Like to set the stage with vases overflowing with flowers? Beautiful! If you\u2019re going to use some sex toys, be sure to have those handy. This is your sexy space, and you get to decide what it looks and feels like.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Set your Intentions<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ve got your space set, your fire is burning, now it\u2019s time to zero in. What is it you\u2019re dreaming of?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be something tangible like a promotion, a new home, or your dream high waisted jeans you\u2019ve been scouring every thrift store for. It can also be new energy, an epiphany or deeper understanding of a situation. Whatever it is, this is your practice, just get specific with it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now write it down, in your journal or on a piece of paper that you bury or burn. Write into existence what you\u2019re dreaming of.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Make Some Magic<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This of course is the hot and heavy portion of the practice. Where you get down to the actual masturbating. I\u2019m not going to tell you what to do here, after all, you know your body best. I will, however, give you some pointers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take your time. Let this orgasmic energy build slowly, and feel it start to swirl and rise through every part of your body.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep breathing. Stay connected to your breath through deep belly breathing. This helps with the slowing down, and keeping you grounded and focused on your vision.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don\u2019t need to come. Say it again for the people in the back! Orgasms are not necessary to do this practice. As awesome as they are, orgasms don\u2019t come easily to everyone, especially if you\u2019re stressed or under pressure. If you don\u2019t orgasm, no worries, allow yourself to stay present in the pleasure, and just enjoy the sensations as they come.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>The Bottom Line<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All witchcraft and manifestation aside, orgasms make you feel good. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intimina.com\/blog\/masturbation-benefits\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Masturbation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can increase your confidence, and make you glow from the inside out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Call it sex magic, or just call it being practical, but the better you feel, the more smooth life is. The more fluidly you can move through life, the easier things may come to you. You\u2019ll feel more secure in asking for your needs, in pushing the creative envelope and pursuing your goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not that you need an excuse to masturbate (like ever!), but there are few things more attractive than a person who knows how to please themselves and can own it! <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some years ago, I was getting lunch with a fierce friend, and no surprise here, we were talking about masturbation.\u00a0 She told me about a practice that she does called&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":18489,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.12 -
