Newbie just finding my feet!

Welcome aboard Barries!
You've started a really fun and enlightening journey. It will be frustrating at times, but will also be very rewarding. The only tiny bit of advice I can give is what everyone else has said many times. Relax, try to keep the expectations in check, and most importantly enjoy the pleasures your body gives you. The chances are they will be subtle at first. A twitch here, a tingle there, but enjoy them for what they are. Your body is learning new skills and it does take time. Remember you can help it along with the techniques you learn here, but the most important thing to remember is that your body is in charge of the progress, not you. Let it do what it wants...just go along for the ride and enjoy each sensation your body gives you. One day, when it's ready, it will reward you big time! 😉

karvec1959: I couldn't have said it any better! Relaxation is definitely the key! I agree that "your body is in charge of the progress, not you". I like your philosophy!

Thanks for the tips and encouragement. I just wish I hadn't waited so long to find the hidden pleasures of the anus and the p-spot.

I am a 56 year old guy

Me too!

I just wish I hadn't waited so long to find the hidden pleasures of the anus and the p-spot.

That's ok..it's never too late .... that just means our prostates are nicely ripe and ready for loving! 😉

So, I have now been practising with my Aneros for a few days now. It's not always possible to have long sessions with the device but I have been using it a couple of times a day. I am getting used to inserting it, which is quite easy now and I am surprised at how quickly my muscles are firming up. No orgasommyet, but today I did have the hint of an inner tingling which was nice, but still enjoying the feel of it inside me and how it moves as I move my muscles. Things are progressing nicely!

@Barries, welcome. You started quite early - I started my Aneros journey at 72 a few years back! Yes I am still working and enjoying life! So you have years ahead of you. I have found that it has improved my pelvic health, general health and attitude to life and sex. No super 'o' but I am satisfied. I use most evening. I am getting some very nice feelings. I am on a slow journey upwards that is ever getting better. Enjoy!
