Is texting fucking up your sex life?

This might be enough to make you want to throw your phone clear across the room, but first, finish reading this article. If you are, in fact, reading this on your phone stop looking down at it, raise your arms a bit so that it is at eye level and take a deep breath.

Texting is probably fucking up your sex life.
​
Not completely destroyed, though if you don't have much of one we can probably point to texting as a silent accomplice. When you text you do an unreasonable amount of damage to your body, rolling that heavy ball that floats above your spine forward (as shown in the photo), hyper-extending all of the muscles in your upper back and neck. In this process, you also completely close off your throat chakra (#5) while impeding the heart chakra (#4). 
​
This fifth chakra, also referred to as the sacral chakra, is the energy center for communication, creativity, and self-expression. According to spiritual  traditions, the throat chakra is considered the seat, or home, of human emotion. It is also associated with the endocrine system, which means your hormones, including you sex and pleasure ones, are also blocked.

The throat chakra is already hard enough to open up, this is why our sexual desires get so trapped in our heart chakra, confusing us to all hell. Why on earth would we make it harder? Are we sacrificing our soul for the convenience of conversation without a vocal interaction? There is a strong correlation between our throat chakra and our sex chakra, so how do we work against the non stop texting to open up our throat chakra, giving a voice to our desires and needs, and changing confusion into clarity?

Here are a couple of steps:

MOAN:
Next time you come see me, moan more. Your throat will appreciate the vibration and honestly, a good moan makes everything feel better. 

BREATHE:
Deep throat breathing or Ujjayi Pranayama is amazing. When I went to yoga teacher training in Berkeley, I really got to explore Pranayama and breath. When I am approaching orgasm, I really try to dive deep into back throat breath. It helps me to maintain an orgasmic state for what feels like eternity, but it also helps to release my throat and things I am holding in that area. Let's face it, a well breathed through orgasm is basically magic. 

SING:
​Use your voice! Sing, chant, hum, grunt... whatever you can do, do it. 

CHAT:
Tell your lover what you want. Get used to and comfortable with saying what you want, what your desires are, what they are and where they can improve on. Get used expressing yourself effectively in front of your partner without feeling shy, for a unblocked throat chakra and a healthy sex life.
