S*xual energy for a woman is like oxygen. When she does not honor her sexual energy, she slowly disconnects from her own life force. Without this connection, she may survive, but she does not truly live.

She never experiences wholeness because sexual energy is not separate from life itself. It is creative energy, healing energy, and the energy that allows a woman to feel alive in her body.

In my last article, I spoke about how damaged sexual energy can affect a woman’s organs, emotions, and nervous system. When this energy is suppressed, misused, or violated, it does not disappear, it turns into pain stored inside the body.

But remember, in*******se is not sexual energy. In*******se is only an act. It often happens because a woman is seeking safety, validation, or belonging, so she offers her body instead of being truly met.

S*x does not automatically give safety. Many times, it creates more trauma—because a man may enter her body only to soothe himself, not to honor her soul. This is a hard truth, but it needs to be spoken.

True safety comes when a woman reconnects with herself. When safety arises from within, sexual energy begins to flow naturally, without force, without fear, and without compromise.

This is why the healing journey begins with cleaning, clearing the body of stored wounds, unresolved pain, fear, shame, and emotional imprints that were never given space to be released.

Healing sexual energy is not about becoming more sexual. It is about becoming more whole. It is about learning to feel safe inside your own body again.

This path is not easy. It is painful to realize that people you loved, trusted, and opened your heart to may have abused you, ignored you, cheated on you, or crossed your boundaries.

It hurts deeply to see how love was confused with attachment, how care was confused with control, and how silence was mistaken for peace.

Many women avoid this truth because it feels unbearable. But avoiding it only keeps the wounds alive inside the body.

Healing requires courage, the courage to feel what was never allowed to be felt, to grieve what was lost, and to reclaim what was taken.

You do not have to walk this path alone and there is no quick fix. Deep healing cannot be rushed. It requires presence, patience, and consistent support. And love.

Thank you to those who are tenacious in their/your endeavour to expose perpetrators on behalf of children, however adult, who continue to live traumatised - including being bound to secrecy out of terror of consequences. Being disbeliever is a second wound.

"Attempting to release the past is futile. You cannot let go of something that doesn't exist in an immediate sense."

'You gotta let go' / 'put the past behind you' - no wonder my refusal, clinging even... Rather than splitting off any part/s, how about gathering in, welcoming, being with... thanks for this post, so I can share!

I had the honour of being invited to join Chis Braitch of 'Seen and Heard', an organisation formed to promote child protection, in an hour-long podcast. I'll post the link here when it comes out, in February. Meanwhile I'm relaxing in the aftermath of a 'gig' enjoyed!

Piers Cross' documentary 'Boarding on Insanity' is a must-see if you have any concern for safeguarding children, all children. Challenged by tech. I haven't found how to share his post, or mine shared from his, from my personal fb page.... (!) But if you search for Piers Cross, you'll find links to his documentary, from which courage, determination and love emanate as much from the process of making it as the content.

Someone once told me, “everyone comes into a relationship with baggage. You will either trip over each other’s bags or you will unpack them together,” and that hit me hard.

Because none of us arrive healed, untouched, or perfectly put together. We come with stories, scars, habits, fears, and lessons shaped by everything we’ve survived. Some people pretend they don’t have baggage, but that usually just means it’s stuffed away, leaking into the relationship in unhealthy ways.

The right person doesn’t shame you for what you carry. They don’t rush you, minimize your pain, or get frustrated when healing takes time. They sit down with you. They ask questions. They listen. They hold space. They help you unpack, piece by piece, even when it’s messy, even when it takes longer than expected.

And it goes both ways. Love isn’t about avoiding each other’s wounds. It’s about choosing patience over judgment, understanding over defensiveness, and teamwork over blame. It’s about saying, “We both have baggage, but we don’t have to let it trip us up. We can face it together.”

That’s what real partnership looks like. Not perfection. Not pretending. But two people willing to unpack, heal, and grow side by side.

12 DIPS IN DECEMBER CHALLENGE, to raise funds for Prostate Cancer Research

I'm so touched by folk's generosity - and I was encouraged to 'move the goal-posts' from £150 to £300. Since today's figure has already reached £229.50 and I have 7 /12 swims to go, my goal is now £500... ###
