Episode notes
Structure Your Masturbation Like A Practice
- Use the Erotic Blueprints to vary energetic, sensual, sexual, kinky and shapeshifter approaches during masturbation.
- Start with energetic touch, then ramp into sensual touch, use quality lube and finish with visualization instead of porn.
Upgrade Your Sensory Environment
- Create a sensual environment: clear clutter, add a fan or candle, shower, and play grounding music.
- Use high-quality lubricant (avoid Vaseline/lotions) and treat masturbation as self-care.
Try Lingam Massage And Edging
- Practice lingam massage: give yourself a slow, nurturing genital massage before aiming for orgasm.
- Use edging, change sensations, and introduce toys or visualization to train different responses.
