“It can result in leading oneself deeper in to a neurotic retreat and isolation in to those “oh-so-distracting pleasurable safe feelings” which one comes to cherish, finding solace in a perceived to be real yet still illusory sensation and feeling of “energy ” which is then equated with being spiritual or feeling good, without realizing that the momentary high leads nowhere concretely in term of actual mental and emotional growth, not to mention nowhere in term of genuine development.
It took me many years to understand the limitations of this approach and to break the seeming addiction to it proved to be the hardest part of realizing what a feelings and sensations junkie I was.”
— David Verdesi to Maureen Seaberg, A Sensory Adept

Nice article
✨ Thank you.
Empowering words and ideas. I think we are all innately sensual beings, but some of us are better at embracing it than others.
You’re right thoughtbadger – the senses that we most all have can be ignored or cherished. If we cherish and care for them, they can develop into a sensuality that strengthens our experience here.
