Pleasure as Life Force Energy – Reclaiming Our Natural State of Aliveness
What if pleasure is not just an experience, not just a fleeting sensation - imagine pleasure as a direct gateway to life force energy? What if pleasure is not something separate from vitality, but rather the most natural expression of aliveness?
Many of us have been conditioned to believe that life force energy must be cultivated through discipline, struggle, or external effort. One can grow through intense spiritual practice, hard work, or self-improvement. Pleasure Energy, on the other hand, has often been dismissed as superficial or even dangerous. But what if pleasure is the missing link? Access and circulate life force energy in the body - through pleasure.
The Suppression of Pleasure and the Blocking of Life Force.
From a young age, we are subtly (or explicitly) taught to suppress our capacity for pleasure. This suppression comes in many forms:
Societal conditioning puts pleasure with laziness, distraction, or sin in the same box.
Trauma that causes the body to close itself off to deep sensations.
Emotional wounds that create armor around the heart, belly, and pelvis - the very centers where life force energy moves most freely.
Over-thinking on the mind, disconnecting from the natural intelligence of the body.
Over time, this suppression leads to a numbness of being. The body becomes tense, pleasure is reduced and true energetic flow becomes difficult. When life force is blocked, we don’t just lose access to pleasure - we lose access to our full vitality, creativity, and sense of presence.
Pleasure as an Embodied Experience of Life Force
Pleasure is a felt experience of energy moving freely through the body. It is not just about sexual pleasure, but about how deeply we can feel life(force) itself.
The warmth of the sun on your skin.
The deep breath that fills every cell with oxygen.
The way your body moves when you stretch, dance, or surrender into relaxation.
The beautiful sensation of being fully present with another person.
The deep exhale that releases tension and makes space for something new.
We cant chase pleasure - it is what naturally arises when the body is open, free, and connected to itself. But for many, accessing this state is not easy. Years of conditioning, trauma, and emotional suppression create layers of armor that block the full experience of pleasure.
This is where soft touch De-Armouring can be a key in your individual process to allow more pleasure.
How De-Armouring Supports the Flow of Life Force Energy.
De-Armouring is the process of releasing the physical, emotional, and energetic blockages that prevent us from experiencing the full spectrum of sensation. It is a practice of unblocking, softening, and reclaiming - the body's ability to feel deeply - without fear, tension, or suppression.
When we carry unprocessed emotions, traumas, or stress, the body instinctively contracts. This contraction becomes stored as armor. Clearly in the muscles, chronic tension, emotional numbness, or even an inability to fully receive touch, connection, or joy. De-Armouring works by applying deep, intentional soft pressure to areas of stored tension, allowing the body to release and let go as soon the body trust us we can handle whats underneath.
As the layers of armor dissolve, something profound can happen: Expansion and life force energy can begins to flow freely again.
Sensations become more vivid.
Breath deepens, and energy moves naturally through the body.
The nervous system shifts from survival mode into expansion.
Pleasure is no longer just an idea—it becomes a lived experience, felt in every cell.
So what if we generate Pleasure in our body, and gereate life force energy - would that not lead to the same?
The Power of Self-Pleasuring as a Source of Life Force Energy
One of the most powerful ways to reconnect with pleasure and life force energy is through conscious self-pleasuring. Unlike the goal-oriented, often conditioned patterns of self-touch that focus solely on release, often misunderstood as “Masturbation” - true self-pleasuring is about cultivating and circulating energy within the body.
When practiced with awareness, self-pleasuring becomes a deeply nourishing ritual:
It allows energy to rise and expand rather than dissipate.
It enhances body awareness, creating a deeper connection with sensation and breath.
It supports emotional release, helping to move stagnant energy.
It strengthens the ability to hold pleasure without contraction or guilt.
It brings a sense of wholeness, reminding us that we are the source of our own vitality.
And it brings lots of joy!
Through slow, intentional touch, deep breathing, focus and presence, self-pleasuring shifts from an act of deep receiving to a meditative and nurishing experience.
This practice can be truly de-armouring, allowing areas of stored tension to soften and open, making space for more sensation, more pleasure, and more life force energy to flow.
To live life with pleasure, is to approach life from a place of openness rather than contraction. It is to understand that pleasure is not a distraction from life’s itself - it is the direct expression of being deeply in tune with it.
When we allow pleasure to move through us without shame, resistance, or guilt, we are not just experiencing pleasure - we are experiencing ourselves, fully alive.
With Love
