be willing to go out dancing with me. When I finally went on my own, I discovered there was an entire community of men and women looking to dance. I always find male partners willing to participate in the dance. (Of course, I also had to keep up my end of the bargain by getting good enough to be a pleasure to dance with!) I don’t have to date a man who will dance with me because I own the dance in my body. I can go to any city on earth and dance the tango with strangers who don’t even speak English. Men rise to the occasion when they’re appreciated by the feminine energy.
For you, receiving pleasure might take a different form than having a partner dance with you and honor your goddess-like self. Your supportive partner may not be a man at all—it may be a woman who is attracted to you and unapologetic about desiring and receiving pleasure. Even so, open yourself up to having the men in your life and your community serve and assist you and other women.
It’s not as if men have to lose out as women own their pleasure, and women become the “winners” who beat out men in some competition. Everyone benefits when we’re balanced by embodying the feminine principles of receptivity, pleasure, and connection to the earth. A woman who owns her pleasure makes a man’s life more fulfilling. It’s not having a woman pay the bills and run the household that will unburden him, but having a woman who is overflowing with enthusiasm and passion for her life.
For too long, women have beentrying to do it all. Getting angry or resentful toward men, or rejecting them, won’t lead to a fulfilling and enjoyable life. Inviting men to step up and support women in receiving pleasure will.
RADIATE PLEASURE!
Your nature is joyous radiance. You don’t have to ask permission to seek or receive pleasure. Your happiness serves the world and yourself, keeping your vibrational energy high.
Here’s how it works: Your heart’s electromagnetic field reaches out from your body and interacts with the field of energy we all share—you’re actually wired to reach out and connect to pleasure. This energy field radiates throughout the universe via the electromagnetic field. Scientists know about these fields, but don’t necessarily think of them metaphysically. They’ve discovered the Higgs boson particle, which is the evidence theoretical physicists have been searching for because it explains how energy coalesces into matter. Unity Minister Catherine Ponder’s term for the Higgs boson is “divine substance.” Others have called it “the God particle.” When you have fun, your energy changes and so does the field around you, and that shapes physical reality—creating nitric oxide and endorphins in your own body. How that energy of pleasure manifests in the physical world outside your body is a marvelous mystery.
So adopt this motto: Fun is important. Fun is what keeps you ageless. Dream up a pleasurable adventure, get out there and do it, and chances are someone else will do it with you. Drive into the city to take a tango lesson. Book the cabin for a girlfriends’ weekend in the woods during the dark months of winter. Pull out the card game or board game, get some people together, and laugh yourself silly over a trivia question.
The time for pleasure is now. I remember when I finished my medical residency at age 30. I’d been a nonstop student since I was in kindergarten and now my peers were choosing postdoctoral specialties. I wondered when I would get a chance to stop following the carrot on the stick and finally have some fun in the present instead of someday. I’d had enough. I said no to doing anob/gyn subspecialty fellowship. It was time to live my life. How about you?
Learning tango or singing in public may not be giving food to the homeless or helping as a hospice volunteer, but these pleasurable pursuits are important. We’re taught that good women spend their free time endlessly giving, selflessly serving, never
