If you’ve ever looked at the artwork of Ancient Egypt, you’ve probably seen a lot of ankhs. It’s that thing that looks like a cross with a loop on top.
One theory is that the ankh symbolizes life and the continuation of energy, including the practice of circulating energy within the body.
If you feel like your energy is depleted, and you want a pick-me-up, imagine energy entering your body from the top of your head or from the bottoms of your feet.
Imagine it flowing through your body, cell by cell. Instead of the energy exiting out the other end, imagine it making a U-turn, traveling through your body in elliptical or circular cycles.
This will return the energy you lost and is a great technique to use for long trips, sleepy afternoons when you can’t take a nap, and some sexy time.
It’s a technique also used in the tantric yoga practice. If your focus is on your genitals during sex, after orgasm, the energy just flows out your genitals.
But, if you circulate that energy from your genitals up through your body to the top of your head, and cycle it back down to your genitals, and repeat – this is a great start to having multiple orgasms.
Even for men. What, you say? Yes, there’s a tantric practice of men circulating energy throughout their bodies to have multiple orgasms, before ejaculation.
So many things you can do with energy consciously. Have fun!
