Questions along the way

First time poster here and a little background. I am a 49 y/o newbie. I purchased my first Aneros about a month ago and am very happy with my toy(s). First 3 or 4 sessions even after reading quite a bit of the forums and blogs, were fairly uneventful, but also a lot of fun! After about a week I had a series of what I will call body shakes that would last for several minutes at a time. I was on my back with my feet flat and my legs begin shaking. It would alternate between my knees flapping side to side, to huge shudders; all great feelings, but I still don't know how to define this within the Aneros glossary of terms. It wasn't a sexual feeling, but a new and different sensation that I enjoyed exploring.

I found out that when I'm interrupted in a session, it is fairly easy to get back on-track without having to go through the initial relaxation phase.

Back to more and more reading of the great posters on this forum and even more exploration and experimentation of these 'body shakes'. Like many others, I decided to order a couple of other products. I chose the Helix and the Peridise starter kit.

I love the Peridise starter because without the p-tabs, I can insert and sit comfortably in my recliner and practice late at night without others even knowing. I can easily shut down if interrupted and have found it fairly easy to start back up. Both of these guys have allowed me to continue play with increasing results.

Micro-cosmic Orgasm!: A Mirror Intellectual Orgasm?

The following is a recent post I made in Tantricguy's wonderful Forum thread Rewiring & Women's Orgasm:

"Johntrevy, I have come close to what you describe [becoming a disembodied or transformed wholeness-of-being], but rather than the strict geometry of a sphere, it is more amorphous, like a cloud, for me. It can be part of the floating bliss states and frequently is, solo or with my partner.

Alana, thanks so much again! What a wonderful set of vivid, imagery-enhanced, cosmos connections. These recall my IOs of my youth, which keep whispering from behind some thin veil now, as I/we explore and rewire, or more accurately for me apparently, reconnect the experimental circuits of youth and middle age, from IOs, yoga breathing, inner body visualization and healing, Tao and Tantra, hypnagogic voyaging, "touch-for-health", chi gong, and others to those of a lifetime of periodic prostate massage.

A couple of days ago, the morning after mrs. a and I had another great couple of hours of bio-electric coupling to bliss and bliss union with all, we were reading and chatting in bed. I showed her a diagram of the typical structure of a neuron in a recent article on the huge expansions in neuro-sciences lab results and theories. Aesthetic triggers have worked for me for years to set off erotic energies, but this seemed like just a simple even homey diagram…

sometimes my prostate or asshole seems to demand that i play with it–this was one of those times–if i lie down on my back and use slow deliberate breathing my prostate will begin to make its presence felt–when this happens i will give it time to see whether it diminishes or increases–if it wants to go away i let it–if it increases i see where it wants to go–i never force it cause that is sure to be counterproductive–yesterday it wanted my aneros–it was a pretty good session but i didn't go beyond p waves and some mini waves–there was no "welding" of it to me as i have described before, but there were a lot of good feelings–still on the search for how to initiate regular super o's, but meanwhile a lot of fun and a lot of new things learned–the one thing i can say is be patient

the last two sessions were about the same as the previous ones–i get to the involuntary contractions and bounce around on my back and the pleasure mounts and when i stop bouncing and relax fully the aneros adjusts itself to another position and i bounce again to feel the stimulation–when the aneros adjusts it usually feels like it's going deeper although it feels as though it is already as deep as it can go, so go figure–if i am lucky it feel like it welds itself to me, that is, when i bounce it maintains its grip on me so that there is no feeling of movement between me and the aneros, we are one–this can occur several times and is usually a tighter grip each time until it finally takes over–this was the super o for me, where it seemed to switch a gear and took over completely so that i couldn't stop bouncing or groaning, moaning or shrieking–sadly it hasn't happened again, yet– i get to the bouncing and gripping tightly and all that that gives me but haven't been able to go farther since my first super o–who knows, maybe i am pressing or maybe it wants to be completely next time–maybe there is a different trigger next time–will continue and see where i go

Tantra and Bio-Electric Sex

We recently acquired Davis and Ellen Ramsdale's book Sexual Energy Ecstasy, a wonderful compendium of information and experience. We were really taken aback when we came to page 304-307, "BIO-ELECTRIC SEX", and found such a detailed description of essentially the practice we have stumbled into intuitively during our explorations with Aneros and KSMO.

Many of the benefits explained here have certainly worked for us, with no prior knowledge or expectations, no "belief" or debate!

The "Scissors" position recommended and illustrated for bio-electric is our favourite over many years, as it minimizes the stress and distraction of pain from my old injuries etc.

After reading about this, my wife and I had a great session of energy generation and sharing based on the techniques I've developed with my Aneros (MGX alone initially) "polishing the knob" and its extensions, and with the Key Sound to trigger, amplify and direct the orgasmic energies tied to the aneros muscle memory training. The reading has helped her sense of this energy generation feeling and she generated significant energy that I could feel happening and that we could share!

This information and the much related material in the book are wonderful help for couples on a Tantric and/or Tao path with Aneros. Here is more detail from a recent post on my KSMO Blog of the same title:

ed's journey

tried again today–same result as the last 2 times–encouraging but not the big o–have the ability to start with the involuntary spasms after about 5 minutes–accomplish this by just waiting, completely relaxed on my back with my knees in the air–now know what i'm feeling and when it comes i just let it happen to see where it takes me–sometimes it makes me go oh yeah and sometimes it makes me shake my legs and/or bounce on the bed with my ass–this bouncing feels good and makes me feel the aneros inside me–i can almost get off from this but it takes a little something extra which i have not identified yet–when it happened the first time it was like time slowed down and a switch was thrown and the aneros seemed to really dig into me and welded itself to me, but i don't know what exactly happened just before that and so i don't know what set me off–of course it may not be the same every time so i have to remain loose

tried again today–doesn't seem like too much action for me–had bm, douche and large lube–this is needed for me–want movement to start things off, although it seems it is not so important once things are underway–did same with each aneros–got very good feelings going with panting and bouncing etc, mostly right side feelings with a little left side action toward the end–as i've said, it seems that i think of the less intense rubbing as being on the top of my prostate and on the right and the more intense rubbing as being lower on my prostate and on the left side of my body–i seem to have a mental image of this printed in my mind as i feel this happening–the right side starts things off and feels very good and brings me a little stiffy and a lot of precum and if i bounce right and get the rhythm and panting right it seems to shift to the left with much more intense rubbing and bouncing and eventually if i get the rhythm right it seems to take off from there– but it can't be forced nor controlled–i just feel what happens and respond–the bouncing and panting come naturally, they are what my body wants and if things get going all in the same direction it seems like the aneros buries itself and welds itself there and everything goes wherever it wants to go–my only control is to stop it when i get too tired out or can't breathe anymore–

had my first super o yesterday and i'm here again trying to duplicate it–lots of lube again after a douche–start with my helix again and then my 16 mm, followed by my progasm and then my 16 mm peridise again–basically did the same thing with each massager–got to the involuntary movement part and the bouncing and the very good feelings and the panting etc but never over the hump to the super o–it's great getting to the involuntaries so soon now, like i have been able to do these last few times–also great knowing what i am looking for and finally knowing that it really is all about letting go completely–there is no longer letting go and grabbing onto a feeling with a contraction–i don't use contractions at all–they keep things from happening–also when a feeling hits i no longer contract as a reaction–i don't know why or how i manage to do this,although the movement is so small now that it doesn't surprise me like it used to do– i relax and take whatever my body dishes out to me–the movement seems to be so small and fast that i don't perceive any movement at all–i do feel movement when i'm starting but when i get there all aneros movement seems gone, there is just this thing buried so deeply in me and seemingly welded to me that it seems a part of me–it seems to feel hotter too–it grabs onto my asshole and bounces me around without letting go– there is no me and it anymore while it is in control, just us

ed's journey

had a session today with a double lube before insertion to make sure i had movement–i have movement, although not as much as before, but what i lack is the same feeling from the movement that i enjoyed–now it feels like pressure or just poking or rubbing and not pleasurable poking or rubbing like it used to feel–i can make the aneros move but it doesn't give me much feeling on my prostate–i only hope that i can condition it to feel more pleasurable like it used to do–used the mgx first for 30 minutes and then the 16 mm peridise for 20–i like to use the smaller device after starting with the larger as it seems that my ass has to grab more to get a hold on it than it does when i start off with the smaller first–it seems to be move active trying to control it, to get a "hand" on it

just wanted to say that i got a fungal infection in my lower pubic area that was misdiagnosed as herpes zoster and treated with lyrica from which i developed the severe hives as an allergic reaction–they were mainly concentrated in the groin area and upper legs and lower belly and were so severe that they were driving me crazy and keeping me from sleeping–it must have wiped out all memory from my rewiring with the aneros

finally got back to health and began my sessions again–have had several so far and i seem to have lost it–slowly getting better but am way behind from where i stopped–all those nerve endings that were jangled from the week of intensive hives and the itch stopping cream must still be asleep!–seem to have lost the movement on my toys and also the feeling of how to control my contractions like i used to–my pc contraction seems to be intact but i have lost a lot of control on my anal contractions–seems like i can no longer do an anal without the pc coming along too– i used to have the tickling, buzzing and rubbing on my prostate but now i don't get any of those feelings like i used to–i also had the "tapping" i could do with my pc contractions–now all i get is a strange thing that feels like the massager coming off the prostate with some force, sort of like it was pressed hard against the prostate and when it comes to the edge it slams off–using a lot of lube cause movement is practically nonexistent–i'm now back to waiting for involuntaries to hitch a ride on–i guess i need to be rewired all over again–i'm guessing that all that nerve stimulation with the hives has screwed up the rewiring that i had done with the aneros–it's probably more that than the time i spent without sessions
