He says, “Make me one with everything”. The vendor makes him a hot dog and takes his money. The monk expects his money back and when he doesn’t get it says, “Where’s my change?” “Ah”, says the vendor “Change comes from within.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This joke reveals how we much expect the right thing to happen at the right place and time. The same event becomes funny when it’s the right thing at the wrong time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aren’t we all just chock-full of thousands of judgments about what’s right and wrong? What if we could just dump those judgments and enjoy every moment – especially during sex?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How cool would that be, since, when it comes to sex and pleasure, right and wrong events usually do not lead to harmless laughter, but often to more serious developments, like shutting down, embarrassment, trauma, hurt, and fear. Plus, we quit having fun with sex.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you got lots of judgments right this very nano-second about sexuality – yours, mine, and everyone else’s? Are you wondering, “Wow. I’d love to drop my judgments about sex. But how?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AH!!! Here’s the true secret of enlightenment: It’s as close as a subtle shift away. (In other words, enlightened sex is not to be found in with some guru in the Himalayas…. It’s in a Hot Dog Vendor!) Okay… just kidding on this one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seriously, though. You don’t need to go to the Himalayas…. It’s all here, in your own, simple, amazing attitude about fun. Just keep asking yourself, would you rather be right, or have fun?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the next time your lover slips on a banana peel – (say it’s *your* greased clit or cock), and their hand flies, on a fumble, up your nose… well, did you know that the nose is full of erectile tissue? If your nose knows this isn’t the place to be, solicit their slithering digits to slide slippery-slope down to your lips! Aha…. more erectile tissue! Now maybe lips are more to your liking (and licking)? Hmm, perhaps, now’s the time to become one with everything… wink, wink….starting with that friendly finger fondling your galactic smile!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy New You!

Mantak Chia is a fixture in our culture, but in a slightly "small" way relatively to his total message. He is the one who for years has been telling men, to withhold ejaculation, and circulate that energy (and that semen!) up through the body instead! You can (and should) circulate precious this orgasmic energy up through your body, mind, heart and spirit, rather than "spend it" by letting it leave your body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course he says a lot more than that. In fact, he has an entire cosmology or how to live an orgasmic and loving life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s so typically “Western”-consciousness that we equate him with this one concept on of withholding semen, when what he talks about is an entire way of living, eating, thinking, and breathing, (for both men and women) … and, of course, when he includes making love and generating orgasmic energy as a big part of his overall conversation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Join us as he talks about this, and so much more, on this podcast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes…it’s about so much more than whether you ejaculate (as a man) or not. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So… become global. Open your mind and hear what this brilliant master has to say. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, and check out some of his DVD’s while you are at it… they are wonderful. I especially love the ones on Sexual Alchemy, though, I admit, I haven’t seen them all yet! We list them on our episode page for Mantak Chia's show. Or, go to www.PacificTao.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once you’ve listened to him, then see what works for you in your body. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Overall, I am sure you will feel totally enriched for having heard this brilliant man. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listen Here:&lt;br /&gt;http://www.personallifemedia.com/podcasts/expanded-lovemaking/episode028-mantak-chia-cultivating-energy.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2007 Patricia H.

Through what? Compassionate Nonviolent Communication?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi, I’m Dr. Patti Taylor of ExpandedLovemaking.com, and most people tell me this: I thought you just slammed the door or made rude remarks when you wanted to get your point across! Then you annoyed people and started new relationships. (Put this all in reverse to describe what people do to you.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This may sound funny…. If it weren’t so true. Then of course it’s tragic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And it’s more heart-breaking when you realize the consequences of poor communication around intimate communication: hurt feelings, that lead to feeling traumatized, shut down, unattractive, and more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wouldn’t you like to reverse this trend? Is it possible?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wouldn’t you like to feel loved, met, understood, and as a result, more open, warm, and sexy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagine the hot, loving, or deeply caring sex you used to have when you felt you were really, truly, connecting. You can feel that way again in a much shorter time possible than you ever imagined!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Find out how in our show on Compassionate Communication with Lori Grace Star and Scott Catamas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listen Here: http://www.personallifemedia.com/podcasts/expanded-lovemaking/episode025-lori-grace-star-scott-catamas-compassionate-communication.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2007 Patricia H.

If so, would you be willing to share what yours was like? I shared my experience on this week’s podcast with Dr. Barry Komisaruk, and I’ll give the link below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can do so here, in our comments section. We’d love to hear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or, if you’re feeling really virtuous, perhaps you’d like to contribute to making the world a better place? Dr. Barry is doing research to help spine-injured patients find new ways to experience orgasm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He is seeking volunteers who can “think off” and are willing to come to New York to participate in his research study. You can write to him for further information at this address: brk@psychology.rutgers.edu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a good cause, more pleasure for people with a serious injury.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wishing everyone more pleasure. I know you’ll get lots of ideas about how to have more in this fabulous podcast!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.personallifemedia.com/podcasts/expanded-lovemaking/episode023-barry-komisaruk-pleasurable-orgasmic-pathways.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2007 Patricia H.

Why? We teach what we need to learn, I always say. So what is there to learn about making love, and using this information to go into expanded orgasmic states, you might ask of me, since I probably do it more than almost anyone I know?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything. It’s not about what is being taught. It’s about being in the experience. Each gathering is like a sacred puja, or ceremony, where we use our collective energies to raise one another, and ourselves, and our awareness, in order to expand our bliss and bliss consciousness to places we never dreamed possible. And that is always an infinite journey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here is what is planned:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AH: Awakening Hearts: Saturday October 20th. 7pm to 10pm. In San Franscisco.&lt;br /&gt;Last month's gathering was REALLY fun and connective!&lt;br /&gt;So, come join a group of juicy cultural creatives, as we awaken our capacity to feel more joy, aliveness, and bliss!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more info click on link: www.healingwords.org/ah.htm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another evening: Sun., October 28th, 7 -10 pm in Corte Madera: Expanded Tantric Lovemaking, with optional potluck beforehand at 6 pm:&lt;br /&gt;Here I am share some of the information that I have been presenting in New York, and introduce you to what I will be teaching in my upcoming playshops. You’ll learn more about how to expand your sensual life with newly refined practices derived from the Kashmiri Shaivist Tantra traditions. For more info click here:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.celebrationsoflove.com/e-expandedtantriclovemaking.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What are people are saying about Ah! Awakening Hearts?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Patti and Don created a delightful, heartfelt space that was very safe and felt like home.&lt;br /&gt;*The connecting exercises sparked my intuition and put me in touch with the moment.&lt;br /&gt;*The activities of the evening helped me to explore the delicate balance of honoring boundaries and taking risks. I found that asking permission allowed more intimacy.&lt;br /&gt;*Thank you for creating such a safe space to me to explore Sacred&lt;br /&gt;Intimacy with my self and others. t reminded me that the essence of Tantra is spiritual awakening.&lt;br /&gt;*It was more than I expected. I left the event with a feeling of deep peace and fullness in my Heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, check out my podcasts! We have some great ones coming up, including Mantak Chia, Lori Grace and Scott Catamas, and Stan Grof.

It’s a podcast on the Personal Life Media Network. I literally await each week’s show with true curiosity. What has Duncan Campbell created for us this week?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every podcast has a way of changing my life. They are that good! But recently, Joseph Chilton Pearce has been on for three whole shows, talking about culture, violence, children, the language of the heart, how it connects to the brain, and the biology of transcendence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What do I love? Okay, it’s academic in parts. But Pearce lays it all out:&lt;br /&gt;We are universally divine, but with cultural overlays, are “programmed” to forget this, and to embrace violence… and of course, this will show up in our lovemaking as well as in our children and all other aspects of our society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This information tracks perfectly with what I teach — and believe — about learning to become a better lover. Underneath it all, we are have the potential to become precious, fabulous lovers, just waiting for a chance to express ourselves and learn how to love even more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pearce’s explanations about what we can do about our cultural conditioning… not what you may think… are refreshing and inspiring. And mind-opening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wow. Do I love this show. And this week was just another in a string of hits. Thanks, Duncan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This show is in three parts…. lucky us! So I am just giving the link to his page on Personal Life Media.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, oh yes, thank you to Personal Life Media, who makes ALL of this content get out to us Lovemakers, who happen to be parents, children ourselves, and, of course, divine beings underneath the programming. Thank you, PLM!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listen to Living Dialogs Here:&lt;br /&gt;http://www.personallifemedia.com/podcasts/living-dialogues/living-dialogues-show.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2007 Patricia H.

To support that cause we felt the best thing to do is to reschedule our event to another night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I look forward to seeing you on the 28th!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In other news, I just got back from the the Podcast and New Media Expo full of lots of new ideas, so hold on as I upgrade and modernize my site and the way I do things around here ... even my email! All for your benefit, of course! The customer... ahem... audience... ahem....ahem... even client... is now the "participant"! I love this!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, please, let me know your thoughts about what you'd like to hear more of, what you don't understand about my site, or even, just drop me a line and introduce yourselves and let me know what you love learning (or love to learn) about making love!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I'll be doing way more to make this easier for you because I am really interested and curious, as well as grateful for your participation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yours, in ever-expanding love,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Patti (aka Dr. Patti Taylor)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.ExpandedLovemaking.com -Check out my You Tube Videos on my site&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.personallifemedia.com/podcasts/expanded-lovemaking/expanded-lovemaking-show.html&lt;br /&gt;for computer access to my podcast... I now have 21 shows! including Daniel Odier, Margot Anand, Ian Kerner, Mantak Chia (coming soon) and many more amazing guests!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or just go right into Itunes and search for "Expanded Lovemaking" ... we're currently the top-rated show in our network -- we got approximately 40,000 downloads last month, after 6 months "on the e-waves", which is amazing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://expandedlovemaking.blogspot.com/ for my blog... which you can sign up to... (look in the bottom right hand corner where it says, "Subscribe in a reader"). It will come right to your email and comes out much more frequently than this e-zine. We discuss events, shows, and hot juicy stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS Please... Can you think of friends that would enjoy what we're doing? If so, would you be wiling to pass the word along about what we're up to?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Invite them to take one small step, like to check out one of my 21 podcasts, one that's really touched you personally, perhaps, or sign up to my events list... we have so many exciting new show, events, and articles planned! Even forwarding this email would be great.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no substitute for word of mouth. If you are enjoying what I am doing, then, your words are worth thousands of dollars to me!!!  Millions, even. I'd love to see this show reach 100,000 downloads, which is where it will start being really commercially viable. Your support would mean a lot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PSS: Almost all the guests on my audio podcast say that if more people practiced Expanded Lovemaking the world would be a better place in so many ways. Those of you who listen know of the many beautiful ways they've mentioned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So... why do you listen? And, do you think the consciousness of the planet would shift if there were way more Expanded Lovemakers out there making love all over the planet?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks in advance!

I am so glad to release it, because it is such a message of inspiration for all of us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So many marriages are not making it to the long-term any more. You have less than a fifty-fifty chance of staying married 25 years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lack of a gratifying sex life is often a major reason. So guess what turns things around?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heather and Robert, in a long-term marriage, bravely share with us their journey, start from a stale-mated sex life a year ago. Misunderstandings abound, while feelings are brittle and easily hurt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both of them attempt to reclaim their passion. Advances comes haltingly, but, with the love and determination, the payoffs come through, one after another.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s all in the details in this vulnerable, yet, detail-filled, and juicy narrative!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the end… well, you’ll have to experience for yourself the joy we share with Heather and Robert in their fun and newly-minted marriage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel so hopeful and happy with this interview. I see this so often: that becoming orgasmic brings marriages back to life, love, trust, harmony, and joy. And, oh yes, Passion!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listen Here:&lt;br /&gt;http://www.personallifemedia.com/podcasts/expanded-lovemaking/episode020-heather-and-robert-reclaiming-sex-and-passion-part-1.html&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2007 Patricia H.

Have you checked out the A TASTE OF SEX Series here on our very own PersonalLifeMedia.com network? If you like the Expanded Lovemaking Show you just might like this show as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, THEY ARE UP FOR A PODCAST AWARD, and it would be so cool if they won one! It’s a major, prestigious award. You can vote every day until Aug. 15! You’ll vote here: http://podcastawards.com/ and it’s a one-click easy process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their shows represent freedom of speech, and a celebration of life. In this world of boring mainstream media, I count my blessings when I can get access to unique voices, every single time I can. I have met so many wonderful friends, just from listening to A TASTE OF SEX.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have tuned in, and I have come to know them. As members of a fascinating sex-positive community, they’ve shared struggles and successes and hot juicy sexual encounters, all via their raw, open-hearted podcasts. And, as you might imagine, as I come to know people, I come to love and understanding, too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They have an erotic poetry and prose reading and a community “tell-all”, and in both shows they model what it’s like to bare your soul to sensuality, sexuality, consciousnesses, love, and life, in a multitude of voices and exquisite moments of life, both mundane and amazing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the Visiting Guest Series, I learn about other leaders and teachers. They have dreams, and to hear them and what makes them tick, inspires me to be the far-out crazy broad I am, whether I like or not! (I do, I do…, most of the time.) Company is always nice, though, don’t you think?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because of A TASTE OF SEX, I have more love and inspiration in my life… yes, because of this homespun, exotic, erotic, totally fun programming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So check out their shows… and if you are so moved, just get it: Your vote REALLY counts!

Even if you can’t remember, I’m guessing that it’s something you’d like to do, basically, any day of the week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, when’s the last time you took the phone off the hook, lit some candles, put on your favorite music, and took the time to learn all about your own body? (Not to mention your partner’s body on some other day!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If this is something you’d like to do, and haven’t, it may be simply that you don’t know how. Sheri Winston will show and encourage! She’s a registered nurse, a sexual educator and counselor—in her own terms, a WomanCraft teacher and a “pelvic priestess”. Plus, she’s warm and fun to listen to!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anton Diaz draws her out in this amazing show which inspired me deeply.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Impressed by Sheri’s presence on the show, I went to her website, www.sheriwinston.com, where I found a virtual motherlode of articles that will help guide anyone wanting to learn more about the maps to orgasmic pleasure: maps of the clitoris, stages of female arousal , “puffing and pumping the bulbs”, and SO MUCH more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are over 35 articles, and links to other websites as well! You’ll want to bookmark this page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This show is a total treasure. You and your partner will delight in hearing Anton and Sheri “dance together” as they encourage and inspire all of us!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr. Patti Taylor,&lt;br /&gt;www.ExpandedLovemaking.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listen Here to “Wholistic Sexuality” with Anton and Sheri:&lt;br /&gt;http://www.personallifemedia.com/podcasts/expanded-lovemaking/episode013-sheri-winston-wholistic-sexuality.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2007 Patricia H.

Today, I want to talk about talking. Talking is not a topic in itself, any more than breathing or eating. Talking is simply something that must occur. It is the lubricant of the breakthrough process itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the longest time, I never said a word during sex. Sometimes it was because I didn’t know what to say; other times, I didn’t want to spoil the moment, or hurt my partner’s feelings. Even when my partner would repeatedly encourage me to talk, I would be grateful—yet, I could not, I would not, trust that he was sincere. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Sure”, I thought, “You think you want to hear what I am saying. But you don’t, not really. If you did, you’d hear an ongoing stream of judgments, complaints, and comparisons, mixed in with general confusion, self-focus, and fear. Trust me…. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am still remembering, quite silently to myself, the old days, and those thoughts: You really don’t want to know. Maybe, maybe, if I knew what to say, or ask for, I would, but I don’t. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And yet, for all my inner dialog, I would also add, still silently, “but please, please, don’t give up asking, I want you to care, I want you to know, I want one day to figure out how to escape from this prison of silence. It’s just that right now, I have no idea how to leave. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please don’t stop asking me what I want! Who knows, maybe one day, I’ll really figure it out.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, for all you strong, silent types out there, here’s my request: learn how to be the strong, communicative type for the one you love. Learn to ask her (or him) questions!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We shy, don’t-know-quite-how-to-ask-for-all-the-delicious-pleasures-we-are-craving, may just be craving the day that you do, so that we can learn to figure out to tell you. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know I did, and so have lots of others. Learning how to ask, and answer questions, verbally, coupled with some “show and tell”, was a key part of the breakthrough process for me and many of the couples that we work with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yours, &lt;br /&gt;Dr. Patti Taylor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;www.ExpandedLovemaking.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2007 Patricia H.

Do you live in or around San Francisco Bay Area?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm inviting you to a fun, educational, and experiential event. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Friday, July 6, 2007&lt;br /&gt;7:45 pm to 10:00 pm, prompt starting time&lt;br /&gt;Downtown San Francisco - 735 Montgomery (at Jackson)&lt;br /&gt;Cost is $15 per person at door.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Connect with current friends and MEET wonderful new ones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And while you're at it...Learn skills to develop your sensual life with techniques and practices derived from the Kashmiri Shaivist Tantra traditions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OK, Here's the story: For a long time, I've had a dream that people could find a venue in which to connect with one another, without expectations, head trips, or a "meat-market" atmosphere. I've always been slightly jealous that singles bars sprout up on almost every corner. I always wondered, where do other people go to make friends and meet new people?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What if you don't drink?  Or, what if you are not single, or, what if you are simply looking to have a wonderful connection but not quite ready to meet someone wanting to "begin a relationship"?  Singles bars just don't seem to be the optimal atmosphere for heart-full connection, where people meet just as they are, seeing deeply into one another, in the moment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wouldn't it be fun to be able to do this, learn new skills about how to learn hot, yummy new skills, connect, make new friends, and, do all this without any expectations? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My last point: I just came back from New York City where we had a phenomenally fun time!  What I'm finding, every time I present, is that people love integrating the Kashmiri Shaivist Tantric principles that underlie the Expanded Lovemaking that I teach. It adds so much depth to what we are practicing, and I promise to keep adding more!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay tuned, and please, if at all possible join us, everyone: singles, couples, "undecideds", and those who defy all labels:  We want you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love, In ever-expanding bliss.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Patti&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr. Patti Taylor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.expandedlovemaking.com/&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2007 Patricia H.

I promise I’ll respect you in the morning if you do. And, we might just have a phenomenally good time, too!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I say this because the path of pleasure is a confrontive one sometimes. In our society, we are conditioned to choose pain over pleasure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fortunately, lots of people still want to learn how to have pleasure!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just got back from New York City where I talked over a period of five days on the subjects of Kashmiri Shaivist Tantra, Expanded Orgasm, pleasure, consciousness, and bliss.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The response was incredible. Why? I believe men and women are hungry to go deep in their practice for pleasure. And, because, the path of pleasure is profound.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At my conference, other speakers spoke of using sex and Tantra as a way to heal pain. While I believe these speakers will always have the following, I could never teach such information. I have been in a lot of pain myself. And I have found that going into pain, for me, as a path, has always lead to more pain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only way to experience pleasure, and then more pleasure, is to toggle - that is, discreetly switch - my mindset out of pain, and then into some feeling of joy and gratitude. That is my beginning foundation to a path of pleasure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(And yes, you can learn how to do this!) I teach this and so do others, many of whom come on this show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The path of pleasure leads to bliss in our bodies and ecstasy in our spirits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out this week’s interview with Alicia Bayer and Erwan Davon for juice, inspiration and practical wisdom: Turning On! with Sex, Love, and Attention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They share what us their unique perspective on Sex, Pleasure, and Turn-on as a path to live into. You will feel the vibration of ecstasy the minute you turn on this show. And, you will definitely be inspired to join those of us who choose the path of pleasure. Thank you, Alicia and Erwan! for your inspiring show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.personallifemedia.com/podcasts/expanded-lovemaking/episode012-erwan-and-alicia-pleasure-course.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yours, Dr. Patti Taylor&lt;br /&gt;www.ExpandedLovemaking.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2007 Patricia H.

Yesterday, when I heard it, I was contemplating the part where he talked about how each of us needs to integrate the male and female within ourselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realize how much time I spend trying to fulfill my role as a woman.  There's nothing wrong with this, but, in doing so, I don't allow myself a full expression of the potential of my being.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can I tap into the desire to create more balance in my life, and my energy, so that I can have a balance in male and female energies inside myself?  Where I get too feminine, can I can look to see where qualities of strength and clarity can bring me into a gorgeous kind of “felt sense” of ecstatic balance? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, can I do this without falling into any judgment of myself in any way? Loving myself in all my expressions of myself ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every time I hear this interview I am deeply, deeply inspired. Words don't fully express my gratitude that Daniel Odier shared his wisdom on my show -- but let me try: thank you Daniel!
