Is this like a finite system and classification? Nah, no,

Let's dive in. Hello, hello, my beautiful loves.
(02:13):
So it's a lovely sunny day here in Pahoa. And today I want to share with you
a quickie episode on the four types of sex.
There's so so many different types of sex that we can engage in.
But the four types of sex is a beautiful framework that classifies our main
(02:35):
motivations for going into our sexual activities,
whether it's in self-pleasure or shared with a partner or partners.
Well, and many of you know, I'm an intimacy coach. I'm also a Tantra teacher.
So a lot of the work that I do is really about a deep connection or cultivating
a deeper connection to our hearts and experiencing the joy and the play and
(02:58):
the depths of and the depths and the ceilings of our emotional capacity in this body in this meat suit.
So that being said, there actually is, interestingly enough,
spiritual reason that we, there's a spiritual reason, my neighbor is so loud
right now, there's a spiritual reason that we all run to sex.
(03:23):
And there's a word in Sanskrit we call shunya, and it refers to this eternal void.
It's this experience that we get. And this
is an experience that we have in that fleeting moment of orgasm where we are
(03:44):
beyond our body and beyond our mind and we're beyond this limited expression
of ourself and we are experiencing our boundless self.
We're in a boundless state of consciousness.
And this is love. This is unconditional love. This is where we experience the
unity of us and everything else.
(04:05):
The separation is no longer what we identify as.
Separation is simply a distinction and something that's discernible within the
relative field of our existence.
But we get to slide beyond that play and that movie for just a moment in orgasm.
(04:27):
And we get to see it as a true witness and we get to experience ourselves as
it and beyond it. It's beautiful.
So this is actually the biggest reason why so many of us are,
and this is a very subtle but very strong reason why we're all magnetized towards
sex and more specifically to that
(04:47):
orgasmic peak experience in sex and self-pleasure with another person.
We want to experience this deep sense of connection. action.
Now, it's easy for us as humans to chase that connection with another person, right?
To seek externally, to resource externally.
But we have so much capacity internally within our own mind,
(05:11):
body, spirit mechanism to be able to access this boundlessness and this boundless
nature that is always with us.
Now, having addressed that very fundamental reason, let's get into the four
types. We have one, reproduction. production.
This is the most widely accepted reason to go to sex because there's still quite
a bit of shame and stigma around sex amongst families, communities, cultures, religions,
(05:37):
countries, you name it, nations, where sex is not as widely embraced in very traditional mindsets.
It's seen very much as something that we can embrace when we're looking at baby
making. So that's one reason.
Then we have two, recreation. Less widely accepted, but probably the most popular
(05:59):
reason that people run to sex.
Arguably, I don't know. I think it's a beautiful mix. but recreation
we want to have a little bit of fun pleasure seeking experience
seeking sensation seeking something new
something different or something to explore with yourself
or with another person that offers sensational experiences and as well pleasure
(06:24):
we're pleasure seekers by nature a lot of us then we have number three which
is regenerative this is where we look to our self-pleasure, masturbation practice,
or sex with another person as an opportunity to relieve a bit of stress.
How often have you ever said, or have you ever heard anybody else say,
oh my God, this was such a stressful day. I really need to go rub one out.
(06:49):
Raise your hands. Say amen.
Hallelujah.
Right, we turn to like masturbation, self-pleasure, or to sex as a quick means
to offload, to off-stress, to reset the nervous system, to take the edge or
(07:13):
to take the bite off from our daily or weekly accumulation of stress.
It's also an opportunity for us to experience a quick release and flood of feel-good
hormones throughout the entirety of the body, this beautiful cascade of pleasure
hormones moving through in that space.
And that experience as we start to reach orgasm and as we reach our climax,
and as we are in our climax and descending back down.
(07:36):
So we have reproduction, recreation, regenerative, restorative.
And then we have transformative, which is where we're looking for not just a
transitory experience of healing or relief,
But we're experiencing a mind-blowing,
(08:00):
life-changing,
pattern-shifting, orgasmic state of being.
This is where sex begins to transcend the mundane for us.
And we begin to experience ourselves as infinitely evolutionary beings.
(08:21):
We get to experience progressive evolution in our sexual activities.
So sex becomes healing, not just in the moment, but healing long lasting.
And what does that look like? Like, well, on one level, I want to talk about
the ancient Taoist practices,
tantric practices that have been incorporated into many different modern sets
(08:46):
of intimacy practices, as well as yoga practices.
And these techniques include visualization,
breath work, meditations, different ways of working with our different senses,
and tuning into the subtlety of our experiences in our mind,
(09:07):
body, spirit mechanism to facilitate mastery over our nervous system,
but ultimately over energy.
Energy and these ancient systems break down the cosmos cosmology into elements
the five elements system is very popular earth water air wind fire and we're learning to.
(09:30):
In these practices, become more conscious and aware of how these different elements
are expressing at any given time, right?
If there's an imbalance of fire, it can turn up as anger, irritation,
lack of patience, impatience.
If there's really strong fire, that could look like ambition and someone can just keep going.
Someone has like endless energy and a reservoir of passion to pursue like their
(09:55):
goals or the motivations. sensations, water, earth, someone in a beautiful expression
of earth is someone with whom you can feel very grounded with.
You feel very much in tune.
You can feel safer in your body and more present in your body and in experience
with someone who can embody a really healthy quality of earth.
On the other end, earth and its imbalance could be too stuck,
(10:19):
stubbornness, and ability to be moved. And even that has a benefit.
So we see a way that elements are coming alive within our mind-body mechanism.
And we start to gain mastery over it with these simple techniques of working the mind and the body.
So breath, a nice way to work with these elements and
to bring balance into our
(10:42):
system with the elements and also to experience the the
intensities and the extremes of those elements in
our systems to grow our edges and to
understand our capacities and so this is where we
start to master our erotic energy in so many ways
we can call all energy erotic energy we can call all energy sexual energy but
when energy is focused on when energy is felt somatically in our genital region
(11:07):
we think of it specifically in terms of of sexual energy because when we feel
that sensation of arousal in our genital region,
it's activating pleasure centers in certain areas of their brain that causes
us to behave in certain ways that chase certain experiences.
And we label all of that sexual.
But ultimately, that energy is vivifying and animating all areas and facets of our life.
(11:32):
And we want to keep that flow and that fluidity and the mastery of being able to direct it in one area,
whether that's sexual or whether that's beyond sexual or whether that's an integration
of sexual and all else or something else. So transformative.
The cervical orgasm can be very transformative. transformative the
transcendental and energetic orgasms full-bodied where
(11:55):
these are experiences that long for where these
are experiences that last longer than just a matter of seconds and
you're in a non-ordinary state of consciousness and you're expanding your awareness
these are transformative orgasms now there's so many frameworks that you could
find as regards love languages or your arousal patterns the arousal code which
(12:18):
i'm going to talk about soon soon enough.
And then sex types or sex reasons or sex archetypes. Why do these all matter?
What's the utility in them?
What's the essence of what we can pull for our own benefit?
It's that we can get clarity over what we're desiring and what we can receive
(12:41):
and what we can benefit from within any situation we're entering into.
So let's say it's sexual experience. Well, we can have kids.
We can try for that. And we can open up to the experience of what it means to
bring life into this world and to share that responsibility with another and
to begin a family if that's what we're desiring or a community if that's what we're desiring.
(13:05):
Or we can look at it as recreation play and find, wow, I really just want to
let go and let flow and experience what But life has to bring me in this moment and have an adventure,
have something new to stimulate my senses and to bring me into a very awakened
state of being in my body in that moment to feel something. I want to feel something.
(13:28):
I want to feel alive. I want to feel wanted. I want to feel desired.
I want to feel sexy. I want to feel like I'm a man or I want to feel like I
am a desirable being in this body, like whatever it is. I want to feel sensations that are intense.
I want to feel intensity of experience, all of that recreation. creation.
(13:52):
I want to go out and like, blow my list up, whatever that is.
There's a whole spectrum of how we engage in our life. No judgment, no shame.
And then we have regenerative restorative, where, God, you know what,
my partner is really needing some love in this moment.
(14:15):
I'm not feeling like I want to have sex, but I love my partner so much that
it's something that I don't feel like I'm abandoning myself to do,
to please him, her, them, to be with them in a way that's going to allow them
to feel desired sexually right now.
Compliant sex, we call that, right? When you're having sex, not necessarily
because you're in the desire and arousal for it with your partner versus something
(14:39):
where it's non-consensual.
This is where you're consensually deciding, I'm going to have sexual experience, right?
Or you can do it for yourself. self. I'm stressed.
I need this. I need a break from being stuck with my head, feeling out of my
body, and I need to ground back into my body and feel some sort of a sensational
experience that's going to regenerate me and restore me into a more neutral state of being.
(15:00):
That's going to reset my nervous system or give me some sort of a release.
Then we have that transformative, and we can have of all in one.
We could actively be creating, we could actively be working towards building
a family and enjoying and having so much fun and play in our sex,
as well as experiencing the healing benefits that sex can bring us in that moment
(15:25):
and transitory experiences of it.
And then we have the transformative experiences of, wow, a lot of this has to
do with how open are you to to receiving
your life as an invitation and an opportunity for either of these.
So right, so frameworks, they're beneficial for us because they give us,
(15:46):
they're beneficial for us because they give us structure to identify and to
communicate within our own selves as well as with our partners what we're desiring.
As well as gives us an opportunity to find pleasure or enjoyment or satiety,
some sort of like benefit, some gain through either of these classifications
(16:08):
when we start to expand beyond our preference.
So we don't want to be rigidly attached with all of the frameworks,
love languages, whatever it is.
It's great to first identify wherever you are in this moment today,
what has been your habit by nature throughout your lifetime,
and to challenge yourself to to grow your edges, and to expand into the possibility
(16:29):
to be fully alive through all the classifications.
Of course, not all of us are looking to have babies, so we can push that one
to the side, but we can have transformative experiences that are regenerative
and restorative, as well as fun and playful, and we want to aspire to have all that three-in-one.
And if we're having kids, we absolutely want to have all four-in-one.
(16:50):
We want that child to be birthed into this world in
this experience of pleasure and like complete
invitation on all levels of our mind body
spirit mechanism okay so this was supposed
to be a quickie but i think this ended up being a bit of a longie go
ahead and leave a comment if this resonated with you in any way i'd love
to know like where have you found yourself on your
(17:12):
path to sexuality have you found yourself in either
one of these categories predominantly and where
do you find yourself today and where would you like to expand towards
have you found any challenges with experiencing
experiencing sex in
either of these categories or classifications and what
would you aspire to personally in your own sexual
(17:35):
journey in terms of the reason you
go to sex or the gain and the
evolution the benefit and liberation or whatever benefit like or whatever like
plus positive you can pull away from your sexual experiences even empowerment
can fall into healing and transformative and play even kids yeah all of it okay,
(18:02):
thank you so much everybody and tune in for more i love you all,
kind of weird to make a kiss without a mic.

communicate within our own selves as well as with our partners what we're desiring.
As well as gives us an opportunity to find pleasure or enjoyment or satiety,
some sort of like benefit, some gain through either of these classifications
(16:08):
when we start to expand beyond our preference.
So we don't want to be rigidly attached with all of the frameworks,
love languages, whatever it is.
It's great to first identify wherever you are in this moment today,
what has been your habit by nature throughout your lifetime,
and to challenge yourself to to grow your edges, and to expand into the possibility
(16:29):
to be fully alive through all the classifications.
Of course, not all of us are looking to have babies, so we can push that one
to the side, but we can have transformative experiences that are regenerative
and restorative, as well as fun and playful, and we want to aspire to have all that three-in-one.
And if we're having kids, we absolutely want to have all four-in-one.
(16:50):
We want that child to be birthed into this world in
this experience of pleasure and like complete
invitation on all levels of our mind body
spirit mechanism okay so this was supposed
to be a quickie but i think this ended up being a bit of a longie go
ahead and leave a comment if this resonated with you in any way i'd love
to know like where have you found yourself on your
(17:12):
path to sexuality have you found yourself in either
one of these categories predominantly and where
do you find yourself today and where would you like to expand towards
have you found any challenges with experiencing
experiencing sex in
either of these categories or classifications and what
would you aspire to personally in your own sexual
(17:35):
journey in terms of the reason you
go to sex or the gain and the
evolution the benefit and liberation or whatever benefit like or whatever like
plus positive you can pull away from your sexual experiences even empowerment
can fall into healing and transformative and play even kids yeah all of it okay,
(18:02):
