Expressing Desire Without Attachment

In this short video from the 2020 Advanced Practice Group, John speaks to the “Oh shit” moment that many of us face when we actually get what we want in relationship.

You’ll learn:

  • There is a challenging, yet sacred practice you can choose to undertake in this situation to fully feel and express your desire through your body while simultaneously releasing any grabbing, grasping, hooking, or attachment to it.

  • It is a powerful practice to stand in front of a partner and express, “I want you so badly that even a kiss from you makes me want to weep” without them feeling any energetic grabbing at them.

  • Expressing desire in this way is incredibly beautiful.

  • Standing in the truth of having your desire met while releasing any attachment to holding onto it forever is a profoundly deep practice.

  • We have to be tremendously compassionate with ourselves because we are so often trained not to reveal these kinds of truths through our bodies.
