    About this ebook

    We are all sexual beings. When our sensual and sexual expression is awakened, we feel more fully alive and connected to our spiritual source Sexuality teaches us about our self. Sexuality helps us to heal. And sometimes our sexuality hurts. Our sexuality is not separate from the rest of our life. As we express our healthy sexuality, we develop compassion and love for our self and others.

    In this book you have a rare opportunity to explore the nuances of your own your unique and individual love map, your persistent and lifelong sexual response patterns as well as your needs, desires, preferences and beliefs about sexuality. The famous sex researchers who created sex therapy as we know it, William Masters and Virginia Johnson, have taught us that our sexual expression happens naturally unless blocked in some way.

    Are you ready to face your own sexuality and all that it represents and means to you in your life? Do you want to create passionate love relationships, allowing greater sensual and sexual pleasure into your life so that you can truly live in an ongoing state of love?

    In this book you will begin by reviewing your own sexual history which goes way back to your teenage years, puberty, childhood, birth and even your conception. So many untapped memories are stored in our body and our mind that can become triggered through intimate sexual encounters.

    It begins so early that we may not have a conscious memory but our body remembers. For example, if you are born into a family that wanted a boy and you arrived as a girl, the look on your parents' faces, their tone of voice, and their body language may be imprinted in your brain at that very instant. If your parents were fighting while your mother was pregnant and carrying you, the anger, the depression, the anxiety - whatever emotions your mother felt at that time - probably sent stress hormones that flooded your mother's body and yours. We have a genetic makeup. We have learned experiences in our early family environment. Then we are influenced by our relatives, neighbors, clergy, teachers, our peers and anyone else in our environment. And we are affected by what we see in the media - newspapers, magazines, TV, and the internet.

    As human beings, we are born with similar anatomical body parts - 2 arms, 2 legs, similar organs and organ systems - that eventually differentiate into a male or female body and its specific characteristics. However, the way we respond to touch, our capacity to enjoy sensual and sexual pleasure and what stimulates our passion varies greatly from one person to another.

    It has been said that the brain is the biggest sexual organ and that the skin is the next largest sexual organ. Our skin is the entry point for physical sensation and our brain interprets all the sensual messages we receive through our skin. Recent brain research has been corroborating what psychotherapists, sex therapists and body therapists have known intuitively for decades.

    The questions in this book, if you answer them as honestly as you can, will bring you into an intimate knowing of YOU - who you are, what excites and thrills you, what turns you on, what turns you off, where it all began, what you truly desire and how to begin to manifest your ideal intimate sexual relationship.

    The first step in reawakening our sexuality is to discover what is currently blocking or interfering with our full expression and enjoyment of sensual and sexual pleasure with a real live partner. We may not be able to do this all alone. Counseling with a qualified sex therapist can help us to let go of restrictions, accept who we are, and feel the sensual pleasure that is our birthright as a living being.
