Latest developments

A brief report on several weeks of exploration.

I’ve learned that many factors affect my access to pleasure. Lack of sleep, diet, relationships, problems at work can all be obstacles. I find that they aren’t insurmountable, but they make the process more exacting.

My Helios finally arrived, and its arrival coincided with a period of difficulties in the various areas I’ve enumerated. For a couple of weeks I experimented with it, but the results were not much more than gently pleasurable. I even went back briefly to the Classic to see if maybe the problem wasn’t that the Helios didn’t suit me as well as it does most men. But apparently it was the confluence of factors, not the Helix itself, since the Classic didn’t do for me what it had done before, either.

Then one afternoon things changed. For whatever reason, when I first inserted the Helios, I immediately achieved that stillness that seemed to be for me the precondition of a good experience. In short order I began to have waves of pleasure and minor convulsions, and I enjoyed myself tremendously. The waves repeated for over an hour, with varying degrees of shuddering. I lay first on one side and then on the other.

Then I moved to a prone position, with a pillow under the small of my back. After several minutes I felt this seemed to reduce the waves of pleasure, so I started to explore other sensations.

OK!

Ok, so here is the latest and greatest on my journey. I am going to sum it up. Two days after the last session, I decided to do it again. I didn't want to give up, because I felt like I was getting close. This time I got to the waves and rock hard erection state, but it died out. It was ok. Two days later, I didn't get any results, I was patient and waited for something to happened. i tried several different positions, but it was uncomfortable and I didn't get any head way. Third attempt, I got to the erection state again, and since it topped off, I got frustrated and masturbated with the aneros in. I know it was not a good thing to do, because I am re-wiring, but I needed a release and I didn't get one. The orgasm was weak too. I read that the Super T was suppose to be great, but it wasn't. I am finding that it is uncomfortable to have the toy in. At this point I was ready to give up again. It just too time consuming, uncomfortable, and in all reality, I was needing the stress release and so far it just stressed me out more at the end.
Yesterday, I went to Whole Foods and both the Alba brand Un-Jelly.
I definitely felt a difference. It wasn't uncomfortable. I got my Super O.
WTF?!?!
I didn't feel like I was cumming without the cum like others have described, but I did feel like my heart was going to pop out of my chest and I had the most incredible waves of pleasure. It was unlike anything I have experienced. I am so happy I didn't stop. I do feel like it was cut short, because I started thinking how long it was last after a while. I was afraid to breathe normally, because I didn't want it to end.

Muscle Memory and Fantasy/Imagery as Orgasmic Triggers

These are excepts from a current thread in which Pan and I discuss these alternate methods based on his first post in Sky_Walker's thread The Five Minutes leading up to a Super-O at http://www.aneros.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4096&start=15.

>>>artform wrote: I have found both the Fantasy method and what I have called the Muscle Memory method to be very useful additional arrows in the quiver. But Muscle Memory may be limited to those experienced with yoga or at least successful inner body visualization: being able to mentally connect with a specific body element, isolate and activate it in an unusual way. For example focusing on a wound, visible or internal and actually being able to accelerate its healing.

I used my MGX, when I had temporarily reached a plateau before any Aneros-induced Super-O, and practised having my prostate and its rectal muscle wall cover reach out to contact the tip of the MGX and have them caress it. I called it "polishing the knob". Mine does this hungrily for mrs. a's finger anytime!

Perhaps that was the key, butt it worked with the Aneros and I could then replicate that sensation anytime at will without the Aneros and launch the energies, the Butt Buzz and P-waves, mini-Os and dry-Os and beyond… anytime. The muscles there actually flex gently when I "recall" that memory and the physical stimulus prostate fuse is ignited that easily. Perhaps it's just the trick of an adept with an unusual background. Or, this might be useful for others needing to "do something", just as the Fantasy Method has wide appeal and application.<<<

11 month anniversary (updated 6/22)

Nothing new or super – but I have retained a heightened prostate feeling since the last full moon. I'm able to feel the 'tension' whenever I choose to focus on it – lurking and pulsing around.

Here’s an excerpt of what I wrote the day after the Full Moon: I had a fantastic session. The best of the month. The fun part is that I have established an evening session during Full Moons with my SO and it turns out she really delights in making me jump around for a half hour or so. It’s during couple time that I can see the effects of rewiring first hand: The 20 fold increase in overall body sensitivity, the way her touches set me off uncontrollably, the evident body reactions and consequent struggle to relax, the altered breathing patterns, the amplified ‘wow factor’ of traditional orgasms – she can totally feel what’s going on and gets off on it too.

A new (Anerosless) contraction exercise is fun but yielding no new feelings. I do it because I think it maintains a certain level of prostate excitement. It goes like this: There is a muscle, seemingly right next to the prostate that I can contract rhythmically and quickly. Sort of as fast you can say “num, num, num, num”. What particular muscle this is, I haven’t a clue. But I can keep going for a while and it is fun to do in airplanes or driving around in cars and when lying down or smoking cigars (I feel a little haiku coming on!). And then you relax completely. And then you do it again. Sometimes, after the ‘relax completely’ phase, I get a couple of involuntary contractions.

Rewiring at work ?

Session #5. Helix Time: 90 min. Pre-lube: ID Glide + H2O Tool-lube: Crisco & pH on stem 5/21/09 (Rewiring at work?)

I had planned to repeat the pleasureful approaches to orgasm that I'd had twice during Session #4. Then, rev them up a bit. However, I got sage advice from <helixbill> and <Love_is> … tone it down a lot. Both of these gents seem to have been where I am now so the message came with powerful 'sponsorship.'

So, this turned into a 'relaxation' session. Laid out all my stuff on the bed in advance. (Skipped my wife's perfumed oils and soft candles. I'm not that fem…yet! — LOL) Did the whole prep and shower. Took the advice and tried to ratchet down the Type-A spirit that had driven me quite hard in Session #4.

Inserted and started with simple contractions to seat the Helix and lightly massage the prostate, then assumed a BCL, relaxed, meditated and worked with a fantasy. No attempt at 'positional awareness' or any 'micro massage.' At 20 minute intervals I rolled from one side to back, to other side then to belly in spread eagle. Nada, discontinued at 90 minutes.

Lube note: Lube didn't seem quite as fluid as it was for Session #4. Perhaps Ultra-Gel is worth another try.

How I stumbled in here

Blog, ground-zero. — how I stumbled in the door —

Early in 2009 my wife and I embraced the Oprah/Sue Berman/Dr. Oz approach to improve our g-spot batting average. That involved a set of Dr. Berman's training tools, maps, and techniques. Good stuff!

Then, at a 'Sex101' workshop for seniors, a local Urologist mentioned that the g-spot was just a "left-over chunk of prostate tissue common to both males and females… …both the g-spot and prostate had similar sensory characteristics and connections to the Central Nervous System." Soooo….., what was good for the Goose must be fair for the Gander.

Even though I have an 'itchy' prostate, my track record with anal-stim is poor. Most anal toys have given me a lousy "pleasure-to-discomfort ratio." All have settled to the bottom of our toy box or have gone out in the trash. Nevertheless, we searched the web stores for a new p-tool for couples. I chose a brand-name, modestly-sized p-vibe. It had a remote control so that my wife could occasionally goose me. (she thought the radio controlled model was…. 'tacky') LOL

Long story short: the 'p-vibe' wouldn't stay put. So, sayonara, vibe.

Then, off to the local toy and leather shop to find something that would stay in place and not have sharp edges. The counter person guaranteed that a Helix would stay put. Sold ! My wife gift-wrapped it.

Great Maintenance Orgasms

I have always also used my Aneros models for prostate massage specific treatment for my chronic Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and prevention of the previous occasional bouts of more or less serious Prostatitis. One episode of prostatitis a few years ago took 3 months of antibiotic lashings to cure.

Although I can also use Aneros as a an erection encourager at times for my medication induced Erectile Dysfunction (ED), that is a different circuit, rewired and expressed consciously as a different intention. Such are the needs of Aneros multitasking! 🙂

So a normal BPH treatment session has the objective of a good vigourous hands-free prostate massage to break up those micro-crystals and other debris molecules so they can be flushed out with the next ejaculation, thereby "clearing the pipes". This restores a full and easy flow of urine where it can have gotten congested, narrowed significantly, and uncomfortable from time to time. Thank you Aneros and HIH!

These sessions usually start off in bed with relaxation, insertion, more relaxation and some voluntary/involuntaries opening movements. Once the energetic magic is working, relatively soon, my prostate is seeking something more vigourous and I get up for a walk about the house, particularly up and down stairs! Boy, can that Eupho move and MASSAGE!!!

Up and down, in and out (at first), side to side, round and round as we go (dance!) up and down the stairs!. At the exercise area, some toe-touching is fantastic! Deep Strokes! Recently I added a good ten minute speed walk on the treadmill. Nothing like it!

Swirling Vortex of Pleasure

A long delayed update: since my first super-o in January, I had another one in March. This one went a little better since I had no fear going in. I had a third super-o last weekend.

The fact that I've had three super-os in the last four months might say something. You have to be in the right physical and mental state to get them. For me it happens about once a month, giving new meaning to the phrase "that time of month." I think I'd even classify getting into them as forming a state of self-hypnosis within yourself. It's certainly a lot more mental than physical. Most of the sessions last two hours at the most, generally an hour or less.

The one from last weekend was interesting. I was about an hour into having some fabulous mini-os and long lasting p-waves. Things were getting to a state where I was super horny and could guide the MGX so it sat in THE right spot. I was in a super relaxed state and started picturing my midsection as an abstract mass of churning, swirling matter slowing spinning around – like some kind of super erotic galaxy. Soon enough, I was over the edge and into a different kind of super-o. It felt really good, and in a strangely different way than I'd normally associate with the sexual. A swirling vortex of pleasure, if you will!

Sixth session: Sensual bliss

I spent part of the day reading about chakras and their traditional mystical interpretations. I am definitely at a point where I can feel something—an energy—moving around and through my body. And, I can intensify the feeling just by focusing my awareness on it with the intent to do so.

I wonder if that's all that's really been happening around the prostate, which is near the root chakra considered to be at the base of the spine. By moving the energy around there with my awareness, I can eventually induce an orgasm. It's relatively easy to do this because the energy has a sexual, pleasurable quality to it, making it trivial to identify and immensely enjoyable to dwell upon. (It is actually the second chakra, below the navel, that is supposed to be connected with sexual response; perhaps this helps explain the effectiveness of e.g. the male deer exercise…)

The other energies I've been experiencing do not have the same sexual quality to them. Yet they are clearly present around the other chakras, and must have a similar relationship with the nervous system of the body as does the root chakra, as they're able to induce the same muscle spasms I'd experienced when first starting with the Aneros.

I don't experience spasms as much any more, at least as far as they are associated with prostate massage, and I think this is an effect of the "rewiring" process—another way to look at it might be an opening up of energy channels. My other chakras are (or were) not as open yet, and so the energy has been jolting and shocking my nervous system causing convulsions.

Couldn't ask for a better day

Today I've been feeling high as a kite. The Aneros-less kickstart I described in my previous entry was just the incredible beginning. Who knew I could teach my body to enjoy intense orgasmic pleasure at will without any direct physical stimulation? Frankly I'm amazed it has happened at all, let alone so quickly—I've only had four sessions with the Aneros and I almost feel like I don't really need it any more. I gather my rapid progress is not a common occurrence for most guys, so I am also especially grateful for whatever it was that enabled me to get rewired almost immediately.

I've been listening to music for most of the day, and have gotten tremendous pleasure from it. Familiar songs feel new again, the intricate chord progressions and melodies… but especially the rhythm. Oh, yeah! Syncopated rhythms! I love them like never before… I can't help but move… must dance!

Something surprised me about the particular songs coming up in my random playlist. They all had something apropos to say to me about how I was feeling at that moment, either in the lyrics, the mood of the music, or in some cases even the title and album name. I don't usually listen to lyrics as I'm generally moved more by the music itself, but today these coincidences caused me to start paying attention.
