ARTICLE – Sexual Wellness as a Path to Freedom
A professor of mathematics sent a fax to his wife. It read:
"Dear Wife,
You must realize that you are 54 years old and I have certain needs which you are no longer able to satisfy. I am otherwise happy with you as a wife, and I sincerely hope you will not be hurt or offended to learn that by the time you receive this letter, I will be at the Grand Hotel with my 18-year-old teaching assistant. I'll be home before midnight.
Your Husband"
When he arrived at the hotel, there was a faxed letter waiting for him that read as follows:
"Dear Husband,
You too are 54 years old, and by the time you receive this, I will be at the Breakwater Hotel with the 18-year-old pool boy. Being the brilliant mathematician that you are, you can easily appreciate the fact that 18 goes into 54 a lot more times than 54 goes into 18.
Don't wait up."
"Life is not a problem to be solved, it is a mystery to be lived."
This quote was shared by my guest, Laura Maher, author of "Auntie Mom." Her book is a memoir of a year in her life where she raised her niece and nephew. It was an organic and orgasmic experience for her. Laura beautifully and vulnerably shares how she became more confident living in the mystery after this experience.

When her twenty-nine year old sister suffered a stroke, L.A. businesswoman Laura Maher returned home to Boston. During the year her sister spent in recovery, Laura moved her eight-year-old nephew and six-year-old niece to California. Because her fiancé did not want to “raise someone else’s kids”, their relationship ended, and as a result, she did not have a home for her or the kids to live in. While on a road-trip, Laura and the kids met a wealthy couple who invited them to live on their estate in the Santa Cruz Mountains.
Auntie Mom is an inspiring true story of a single woman’s yearlong adventure into motherhood. Laura weaves a rich tapestry of candid tales that speak to the heart of the age-old struggle every woman faces in her role as parent, in her search for self-identity. It’s a story of family, and faith, and the forgiveness that occurs when embracing the messy, complex situations we all find ourselves in when we step into the role of parent.

Occupying your organic and orgasmic life has a way of BEing good for the planet and sexy at the same time!!
My inspiration for this article came from a Google Alert on sexuality. What did we do before Google? In Auckland, New Zealand, there was a Sexuality and Consciousness Symposium in March, 2012. The aim of this event was to help people overcome guilt, shame and fear. The organizers wrote, "We are exploring the nature of healthy sexuality. The world is full of misinformation on who we are as sexual beings." How true this is!
One of the presenters, Baba Dez Nichols, expressed the following in defining healthy sex. "A healthy sense of sexuality is important because it allows us to be in control and occupy ourselves. Sex is our life force and when we are filled with guilt, shame and fear, which can hold us back, we have no power."
There are three things I love about this statement.
Sexuality…
1-allows us to occupy ourselves
2-is our life force
3-when repressed, strips our power
Let's look at these one at a time, beginning with number 3.
What happens when we repress our natural sexual feelings? Our bodies are more tense which depletes our energy. It takes energy to hold your muscles tense all day and night. When we do not have a healthy expression of our sexuality, we also anger and frustrate more easily. Anytime an emotion or feeling is repressed, bad things happen. I know this so well from personal experience with inflammation and pain throughout my body due to suppressed anger. Understanding and mastering my sexuality has not only given me relief from stress and tense muscles, but it has been an amazing form of healing as well.
The National Institute of Health claims that 70% of our health issues are stress based. A healthy and satisfying sex life relieves stress and creates a natural harmony within your body. Sex is our life force. After all, other than a small percentage of mothers who were inseminated with sperm, most of us are walking around on the planet because somebody had sex. That is a pretty strong argument that sex is, indeed, our life force…without it, we would not even be here. I am certain mastering our sexuality can provide medicine that would most likely help the 70% of stress-based diseases.
Now, my favorite point from the New Zealander's point of view is that healthy sexuality allows us to occupy ourselves. I would say, it allows us to occupy our body instead of our mind with a pleasure surge that is good for us, our relationships and our planet.
My BEST strategy for occupying my body goes like this:
Breathe – deeply into the lower belly
Embrace – give myself a big hug
Smile – feel into my inner sexual sensation
Think – organic and orgasmic moment
The BEST strategy applies to any activity you may be engaging in…there is always a way to make it organic and orgasmic.
Apply the BEST strategy today, and let me know what how it feels to occupy your life by living in your magnificent body.
A new young MD doing his residency in OB was quite embarrassed performing female pelvic exams.
To cover his embarrassment he had unconsciously formed a habit of whistling softly.
The middle-aged lady upon whom he was performing this exam suddenly burst out laughing and further embarrassed him.
He looked up from his work and sheepishly said, "I'm sorry. Was I tickling you?"
She replied, "No doctor, but the song you were whistling was, I wish I was an Oscar Meyer Weiner."

I decided it was only fair, after last week's joke, to post this one. Enjoy!
There is a blonde convention, and the emcee pulls one of the blondes on stage to compete in the BIG WINNER contest.
He says, "I will ask you one question, and if you get it right, you win the million dollar prize."
"Okay, I'm ready," says the blonde.
"The quesion is…what is 2 + 1?"
The blonde thinks and thinks. "Um….4?"
The emcee says, "I'm sorry miss. That is not the correct answer."
The crowd of blondes scream, "Give her another chance! Give her another chance!"
The emcee says, "Okay, I will give you another chance. What is 3 + 3?"
"Um, Um…5?"
"No sorry miss. That is not correct."
The crowd screams, "Give her another chance! Give her another chance!"
"Okay, this will be your final chance. What is 2 + 2?"
The blonde thinks and thinks, "is it 4?"
The crowd screams, "Give her another chance! Give her another chance!"
Did you know that Elvis learned his moves from going to strip clubs as a young man? This bit of fun trivia was shared by my guest this week, Pablo Solomon.
Pablo was the perfect guest this month of "Earth Day," as he was a pioneer in the environmental movement. He is also an artist who uses the qualities of beauty and sexuality in his art and designs. He is passionate about the balance of beauty in nature, and has a huge vision for how we can be sustainable with true freedom.
He spoke about the Buffalo Bayou water clean up project when he was growing up. He didn't get a chance to say "on air," but wanted to add the following wonderful news. Miraculously a combination of laws and responsible businesses came together and now Buffalo Bayou again has fish and alligators and canoes. It is being turned into a parkway for miles through the center of Houston. This is perhaps the most impressive example in America of what people and responsible businesses can do when they work together and not against one another.
Another pioneer woman who brings a true feeling of freedom to her life is Maya Angelou. Coach Betty Louise reads her famous poem "Phenomenal Woman," as it is a beautiful expression of inner beauty and sexuality. To listen to the whole show, click the listen button below.
