Aneros, meditative state

During (what I'd call) the super orgasms I've had, there has definitely been a meditative quality to it. Where I'm voluntarily locked into this zone of thoughtless in-the-moment-ness. A mind-state of accepting inevitability, a non-specific sense of joy and harmony at what's going on. A sense that everything is unfolding exactly as it should, and no intervention is needed.

Rating the intensity can be hard, because sometimes, when it comes to the nature of the sensations involved, it's apples and oranges. I did once have an orgasm that had the same pleasure profile as a traditional orgasm, and it was a 15 out of 10. @-)
But that pleasure profile isn't the norm for my sessions at all. And these ones are much harder to compare. It'd say it was like trying to compare the hotness of English mustard to a jalapeno pepper. They're both hot, and you wouldn't be comfortable with a mouthful of either, but they're hot in ways that don't directly compare on a 1 to 10 scale. As much as these invoke a different type of discomfort, aneros orgasms can be different to each other in nature.

And I think it's important to be open to these other types of pleasure, and not try to push what ever you're feeling into a traditional orgasm style template. Through masturbation, we've become experts at pushing towards a traditional orgasm, and in the throws of aneros pleasure, it can be irresistible to fall back on that expertise. The struggle is to learn not to, because the journey isn't going there.

What ever about techniques or advice, the only thing I'm sure about is that sometimes you have to stop trying to help the process at all. Set aside at least one session, every once in a while, where you allow yourself to forget everything you know about orgasms, and just let the river carry you where ever it will, whether you think it'll take you to orgasm or not. These have been the most interesting sessions for me.
