Rob*in introduces us to their plans for their sixth solo session. This will be their first hands-free session, making use of an anchored vibrator. Rob*in plans to make use of their "free" hands to massage their tense shoulders. They also wish to remember their partner during the session by wearing their partner's shirt. Rob*in commits to telling us during their session each time they become distracted.

Several times during their session, Rob*in scans their body, noting their level of embodiment on a scale of 1 to 10, where ten is fully embodied. They also regularly check their level of arousal on a scale of 1 to 10. They speak these levels aloud. After a few minutes of hands-free vibration, Rob*in laughs and says, "I really love this. Gives me so much freedom." This hands-free practice takes Rob*in into a remarkable state of delight, with lots of laughter. Check out what happens in the last three minutes of the practice when Rob*in turns the vibrator on to "high."

Rob*in is "energized" and" joyful" as they reflect on their session. Taking some time at the end of each session promotes integration and learning.

I recommend that you follow Jack's levels of arousal in this hour-long session. In an early coaching session, I suggested that Jack pay attention to the pleasure of excitement (an increase in neural firings) and the pleasure of bliss (a decrease in neural firings.) Pleasure is made up of both excitement and bliss.

Jack: "I have never had an orgasm like that in my life." Jack: "I felt like something really opened up. It was simple. There weren't a lot of distractions. I felt clarity. I could have gone on for a long time in that space." Jack: "Excitement takes me out of my body. Bliss/joy brings me back." Excitement involves an increase in neural firing. Bliss involves a decrease in neural firing. Pleasure is the interplay of excitement and bliss. Embodied porn watching for Jack has been about learning to pay attention to bliss. Note how different Jack is in bliss from when he is excited. Pendulum is about placing attention on the porn and then on body sensation. In this session "the two merged."
