I made an interesting commitment recently.
I decided to experience life as a clitoris.
Sounds a bit wild and kinda crazy I suppose.
The reason why I made this commitment is because I spend a lot of time talking to women about sourcing life from a space of pleasure.
This doesn’t mean never experiencing pain. In fact, if you’ve checked our 50 Shades of Gray or the work of Jacqueline Carey, Laura Antoniou, or a host of other authors – you realize that even pain can give way to pleasure…
What I mean by sourcing life from a place of pleasure is that you’re always expectant of the good thing. You’re always enticed by your Longing. You allow your Purpose to seduce you.
You may indeed take the same actions- but there is an incredible difference in relaxing into the joy of the experience and constricting into “I have to make this work” mode.
So back to being a Clitoris.
The clitoris is the only body part that has no function EXCEPT for pleasure.
It does not age.
It does not lose its ability to create pleasure. It has a profound amount of nerve endings. Upon pleasurable stimulation it swells, expands, opens to the sensation. And while we notice most ready what’s occurring outside – that same swelling occurs inside.
The clitoris is fully content with its space and purpose. It expands and contracts based purely on feeling. And…
It can cultivate more and more pleasure.
Making the commitment to live as a clitoris for a few days has been interesting.
I’ve found myself taking even more pleasure in my own company.
Moving with my own rhythms. Enjoying my inner counsel.
Becoming sensitive to the slightest point of connection I embrace the vulnerability. Periodically I feel an impulse, a sensation – I move with it, swell with it, allow myself to FEEL it.
I feel on a visceral level what expands me and what contracts me. EVERYTHING becomes important I can learn the value in subtlety.
Allow the experience to open me and move me. Leaning in from a place of pleasure, acceptance with no push.
It’s delicious. Sacred. I feel like I have an extremely pleasurable secret.
I invite you to try out this practice. Become a clitoris for 24 hours. You won’t regret it!
Live. Love. Lush and Fearless,
