Not Mainly Between Our Ears

Sexual libido is said to be something that resides mainly between our ears, but that's not the case, not for men in any case. Rather, it has a direct relationship to men's health. If our Kegel muscles are in good shape, and we're feeling fine, especially in the area between our navel and our knees, we'll perform well, even with a minimum of visual or otherwise sensual input.

I know this for a fact, because I've followed my own advice, and the results have been remarkable. Furthermore, I've done this for two years, so it's clear that this is not some temporary solution that quickly fades. It's a stayer in more than one sense of the word. In fact, my sexual powers are back to where they were in my forties.

None of this has anything to do with what's going on between my ears. But things have changed there too. Right off the bat, when starting my new exercise routines, I noticed a greater awareness of the women I see and meet. In that way too, I've been brought back to my forties.

It's clear from this that physical wellbeing drives sensuality, and it's also clear that this doesn't work in reverse. Men cannot improve their libido by finding a younger spouse, or by watching porn, or indulge in any other erotically stimulating activity, including fire place cuddling and romantic trips. Whatever positive effect is gained this way is short lived and unreliable.

However, even subtle stimuli will work wonders on a man with a healthy body. The shy smile of a pretty girl, the voice of a lady friend, and the unexpected sight of a skirt lifted by the wind. These are suddenly powerful inputs.

This is not to say that we should cut out porn completely from our lives, as some puritans keep insisting. Because porn isn't really a problem. It's a disappointing and ineffective way to gain satisfaction. That's true. But as a visual kick to boost one's hunger, it works fine.

Porn is neither a cure nor a curse. It's a strong visual stimuli, pure and simple, and the fact that it doesn't work as a permanent cure for a dwindling libido underscores the fact that sex doesn't reside primarily between our ears. No amount of sexual fantasizing can cure a weak libido. Only physical health can do that.

Feeling Great

More than a year has passed since I wrote this comprehensive article on my personal health issues, so it's time to augment it with a few further observations.

Skin related issues

Skin issues are notoriously difficult to get rid of, so hardly any of my problems have completely disappeared. However, things are definitely improving.

A daily massage of affected areas with olive oil has proven effective, but there are other oils that appear to be better. Tea oil is one of them. However, the difference is not very great, so I'm sticking to olive oil for now.

The important thing is to keep at it. Sticking with the routine of massaging affected areas is more important than finding the right oil.

Digestion

My digestion is sometimes slow and sometimes a little too fast, depending on what I eat. To regulate this, I've discovered the benefit of cumin seeds. I've also found that ginger has a laxative effect. However, the most important factors appear to be water and salt intake.

It's important to drink relatively generous amounts of water every day. But the body will not retain this unless something salty is consumed as well, so I've made it a habit to drink one to two liters of tea every day, and to treat myself to some salty pickles.

Cravings

This was discovered by paying attention to cravings. At one point I had a craving for ginger, and at another time I had a craving for salty pickles. As it turned out, both are good for my digestion.

It appears then that cravings aren't as irrational as I've thought. If a craving comes out of the blue, and is unrelated to what I normally crave, chances are that this is something that will help my digestion. Our bodies know what's good for it, and we need to listen to what it's telling us.

Dirty trick

As for serious constipations, I have a dirty trick I can use, because I'm allergic to cayenne peppers. If I ingest this, my bowels will empty themselves within hours. However, this puts my whole system out of whack, so it's not something I'll do regularly.

Paying attention to how often I sit on the porcelain, and making sure I push out a cable at least once every two days is key. Sometimes, I need to sit there a little longer than I would have liked, but that's better than ending up with a big problem.

Exercise

Going out for a walk every day is good for both my digestion and overall well being. It's something I therefore take seriously.

Fresh air and a bit of sun lightens the spirit, focuses the mind, and relaxes the body. There's nothing quite like it, and it's completely free, because a walk around the neighborhood is all that it takes.

Libido and sexual performance

The vigorous Kegel exercises I've prescribed for myself have proved themselves effective. Additionally, I've discovered that masturbation without release increases sexual performance. Bringing the penis to an erection, and keeping it there for a while, purely as an exercise, result in more reliable and long lasting erections, much to the delight of my wife and myself.

Polarized Light from Stars and Galaxies

Magnetic fields have polarizing effects on light, and it is through this effect that we know that all stars, including our Sun, have strong magnetic fields.

These fields are generally explained as a feature of electric currents flowing in and out of stars. The overall flow passes through the rotational poles of these objects, and thus we end up with a simplified model of stars having magnetic north and a south poles that align with their rotation, and that we know to periodically flip through pole reversals.

All of this can be explained in terms of current flows. However, there's a secondary polarization that doesn't align with rotation, and this is harder to explain because it doesn't seem to be directly related to any current flow. This is pointed out in this YouTube lecture by Jean de Clemont.

The secondary polarization aligns with the axis of the galaxies that the stars are in, but the magnetic field of galaxies are too weak to explain the relatively strong spike in observed polarization of their stars. Something else appears to be at play, and Jean de Clemont suggests that the secondary polarization is not due to an electric current flow, but rather the flow of a dense and highly fluid aether.

The aether flows with the galaxy, and produces in this way its own polarizing effect, separate from the flow of electrons.

This idea aligns well with the aether proposed in my book, where space itself is an aether that latches onto all sorts of reference frames, ranging from entire galaxies down to stars, planets and even trees and buildings.
