Adaptability - Act 13 part 5 - sex and intimacy
Continuing from what was probably a controversial part 4 We looked at how our primary needs end up using most of our days and the best part of our focus.
Our primary needs
- Nutrition - energy and spare parts - covered in part pt4
- Sex and affection/acceptance - we will look at today
- Shelter - covered next chapter.
Persona and Self awareness
All is not vanity, but a good deal of our personal energy expenditure will go towards relationship building, gaining trust and acceptance into various groups.
If we are having acceptance issues, we will not be able to relax, and may waste our energy, focus and earnings trying to compensate or distract from these “un-bearable” emotions. These feelings are so common that we may not recognise them for what they are. The emotions of inadequacy, shame, guilt, fear and resentment. ( to our cells they are just shades of fear that spark adrenaline, cortisol and re-prioritize little things like blood flow, metabolism and immune function).
This is obviously going to have on impact on both sex and the degree of intimacy in our lives. Regardless of our other achievements. There is no way to compensate if something is "distorted or disproportionately needy" in the way we attune or resonate with each other on an emotional level.
Because our organism can not remain in “fear” state indefinitely, we use different behaviour to “alter” our emotional states. Anyone who has worked through addiction, understands that though discipline is fine when our energy is high.
No lasting change occurs without addressing the under-lying beliefs, stories and negative thoughts they produce. Negative emotions are not true sensations - they can not exist without a story to give them meaning. They rule our lives, but they are not actually real tangible things. The turbulence they create is real, and this interrupts our ability to sense what was happening before it crashed into our stories of what "should or should not" be.
Remember, it is our ability to develop skills based upon our senstivities that determines our economic success. Our ability to create and trade real value depends on our ability to remain calibrated to reality rather than fear based stories.
To seperate fact from internal fictions is the process of gaining self knowledge. Those who do not require urgent deep healing of emotional wounds save a lot of energy, but may lack the depth of empathy the comes from experiencing the debilitating effects of fear and self doubt, firsthand.
I still have not answered my earlier question about how a person can tune non physical skills. I trust you are enjoying building the foundations for that dialogue?

Why are we programmed that way? It would seem nothing is out of place.
Everything is perfect, we attract what we emotionally project. We create the consequences in the world and then have to learn from them. I would like more people to understand the parameters under which human communication is really operating, just to give people more of a chance. Also to help save some biodiversity, before we swap it all out for "healthy soy" lol..
Even this "desire", I need to relinquish, or the condition I set for my own satisfaction will become the prison from which I can see satisfaction but rarely reach it.
Better to simply appreciate what is and allow my poor restless mind to drop all opinions about what might or might not be better when...
Great post you have here,i learnt alot
You learned nothing because there is nothing to learn.
Its more about un learning and trusting your senses rather than your memories.
Man is basically doing it by adopting a decent approach. How we treat human body requirements. The same style shows it better than others. It is not good to ask for sex according to desire. Sometimes the person in front of us is something else. I think everything is good if it comes with balance.
From what I observe, nature does balance,
biology, when it is allowed to.
Humans, we return to balance,
though usually only when forced to,
and then we often swing completely
through the point of equilibrium.
Such is life :)
Yes, absolutely right.
