by reflex or nerve responses sent by the brain
Your body will only do what your brain tells it to do.
Sometimes we are in control of our brain and sometimes we are
not. The brain will involuntarily do things we don't ask it such as
tell our heart to beat faster, slower or at a constant pace. Though
your brain works on autopilot it also works manually by the con-
trol of thought.
Sometimes the brain will not cooperate with our sexual
desires. A man can have a perfectly healthy body inside and out
and have trouble with an erection because of one hindering
thought. You may have had an experience where you were unable
to have a full erection or any erection at all although you desired
to have one. You may or may not have known the hindering
thought. My point is, if one's thoughts are not clear and unhin-
dered, it may greatly affect one's sexual performance. On the
other hand, one can have a healthy mind yet lack sexual perform-
ance because of an unhealthy body. To be able to enjoy the meth-
17 Mind and Body
_________________________________________________________________________________________ ods in this book you will need to be a healthy person in mind,
body and spirit.
Thought is extremely powerful energy and the human
body is made to react automatically from thought. Such is the
case with the "fight or flight" mode. The "fight or flight" mode is
a way your body reacts automatically to thought whether real or
fantasy. In the fight mode, our body will automatically release the
endocrines we need to fight or protect ourselves. In the flight
mode your body releases other endocrines helping our body be-
come as resourceful as possible to running or fleeing. Either mode
is dependent on how you perceive a given situation.
What happens to your body during sex could be a result of
a "pre-meditated thought", "habitual thought" or reflex. You want
to have a healthy body, enabling all three reactions an optimum
chance of enhancing your sexual experience. A healthy body in-
cludes a healthy circulatory system, nervous system, and endo-
crine system.
Using pre-meditated thought to enhance sex is simply a
process of positive thinking and reinforcement. It includes relaxa-
tion with an open mind, intensity with a focused mind or a cy-
cling of both. It also includes reminding yourself of certain truths
or beliefs that reinforce your thoughts. When I teach you the
"Eight stages of an unforgettable sexual experience" I will men-
tion different ways of thinking in order to optimize the moment.
Habitual thought will come by reinforcing certain truths or
beliefs through forms of habit. Being that we are creatures of
habit you may have to reprogram hindering habits to allow for op-
timal sexual performance. We will discuss this more in depth later
in this chapter.
Reflex reactions will happen by one of two ways. One,
"nature-instinctive" and two "self-instinctive". Nature instinctive
18 When a Man Makes Love to a Woman
_________________________________________________________________________________________ reactions are preprogrammed reflexes such as the jerking of one's
leg from tapping below the kneecap. This type of reaction cannot
be deprogrammed or unlearned though it can be hindered due to
nerve damage and can be restored through nerve healing.
Self-instinctive reactions can also be a result of extreme
reinforcement of the mind to the point of it being second nature
(such as the training of a soldier) or through a traumatic experi-
ence (such as one’s reaction from the sound of a dentist's drill).
These types of reactions can be adjusted, reprogrammed or erased
by means of renewing the mind through positive reinforcement.
Your nervous system will be partially dependent on the
health and condition of your spine. If just one nerve is pinched by
the slightest degree, it may hinder the flow of energy to other
parts of the body. A good reputable chiropractor can help with
potential problems or referring you to an M.D.
The cells of the your body will feed from the oxygen in
your blood as they respond to messages from the brain, via the
nervous system. Depending on how much oxygen you can draw
into your lungs and how your body is able to utilize the oxygen
will greatly affect your sexual endurance or performance. You
may have healthy lungs but you will also need a healthy heart to
deliver the oxygen to the brain and other cells. You don't have to
have strenuous sex to have intense or prolonged sex. Nor do you
have to be a marathon runner to have sexual endurance, though a
healthy heart and lungs will draw and utilize more oxygen than an
unhealthy heart and lungs.
So take care of your body and your mind. Think healthy
thoughts and
