The Art of Lovemaking


When you think of sex, you probably think of the act of release. What, then, is lovemaking? And is it more fulfilling than sex alone? 
 
Let me introduce you to the concept of lovemaking where two souls exchange energies. Human beings are made up of many layers of vibrating energy, each with its own specific vibration and purpose. The physical part of us is created from and sustained by, it’s energetic layers. 

It's an amazing vessel in which we as a soul can experience the physical plane of existence.
 
The same concept applies to making love. What we're really doing is exchanging energies, your energies and your partner’s. It’s like alchemy that, when engaged together in love through the connection of the vital source (the divine) can open and heal the mind, body, heart and soul. 

Our physical body is the part of ourselves that we are usually most familiar with because we can directly experience it as an apparently solid physical form. However, it's good to keep in mind that we're actually created from the energies of our body, which is greatly influenced by our emotions and thoughts. 

Therefore, sex is an energetic exchange and sharing not just a means to release or the satisfaction of the body but an exchange of energy. Your body may be satisfied, but if it remains on a purely physical level, you'll only experience a pure high and miss out on a higher connection to the source. Real fulfillment cannot be achieved through the body alone as it's transitory. This means it is temporary.
 
Lovemaking happens when you are fully aware that you are a body and soul, not just a physical body. It is then that lovemaking becomes the opportunity for the soul through the vehicle of your body to interchange, communicate and express love as a gift to one another. 

When you give yourself to your partner sexually with love as the foundation, you no longer see your partner as a separate self or simply as another body of flesh. It is then that the love shifts to a deeper state and your lovemaking moved to a spiritual level. The act becomes a sacred communion and the illusion of separation between you and your partner disseminates and you emerge as ONE.
 
Once you become aware that you and your partner are no longer bodies but souls, you can then allow each other’s body to serve as a temple becoming the portal into a deeper connection of the Infinite or divine. It is at this point that love energy is felt and becomes in the truest sense Lovemaking. 

You are both sharing the love in that present moment. So, be fully present and learn to surrender and set yourself free from expectations or what society has set as examples. This is in turn creates freedom.
 
The act of lovemaking entails that we surrender ourselves or become vulnerable, not just to your partner but also to the Divine that is living within us all. And remember, that lovemaking is positive and beautiful. 

The cells of our body respond to our emotional state. High frequency, positive emotions like love, happinessand joy create the optimum environment for generating strong, healthy cells, while lower frequency emotions like fear, anger, doubt etc tend to have the reverse effect. So enjoy, let go and be present.
 
True lovemaking happens when you realize, embrace and embody that you are LOVE.
