Men are often challenged with staying in their bodies during love-making and avoid getting lost in thought or fantasy. You know it’s possible to remain powerfully embodied throughout your intimacy, but you don’t know where to start.

In this practice, John guides a 5-part Bioenergetics practice to open your central column, deepen your breath, and powerfully land in your body. Bioenergetics was developed by Alexander Lowen based on Taoist and QiGong Practices. It is also taught as a part of the pelvic de-armoring process.

There are 5 exercises in this practice: 1. Press your fists into your lower kidneys and arch your back as you breathe powerfully into your hips to clear your central column from your perineum to your throat; 2. Bring your arms down into a forward fold position while maintaining the same powerful breath, lengthening your spine with every exhale; 3. Bounce and shake your body non-rhythmically; 4. Drop into a deep bend in your knees with your legs wide and using your elbows to open your hips; 5. Jump and land on flat feet in a "Warrior Drop," making a powerful sound as you land.

If you would like a solid foundation for arriving powerfully in your body, check out this 11-minute practice.
