I'm a beginner in TC and am choosing to learn in order to gain better balance and become more grounded in my body. I have been practicing the wuji stance and a little bit of arm movement and I can feel the effects already of feeling more at home inside my body. I think I've discovered something in Tai Chi that really works for me that sitting meditation just can't.
My question is- already a few times, I've experienced a sensation of sexual energy emanating from my lower abdomen. I am 43 and not a hormonal young guy but I am surprised about this. I think it is just a phase but I wonder if anyone else has gone through this and what should one do with it?
At the moment, I am not interested in experiencing blissful sex. I'm not even having sex these days, but if there is any info on working with this energy then I'd like to know what to do with it. It seems like a waste to just gratify it and I am preparing on not gratify this energy but rather try for a week of self abstinence. I really don't know what I'm doing but I have always been very sensitive to my own energies and already with Tai Chi, I can sense a lot of internal movement of "energy".
If anyone has any suggestions, I'd really like to hear about it. Also, it is not a feeling of being a 15 year old kid who has the drive to procreate, it is more like a building up in the stomach area and it's like a mature sensation of "sexual energy". It is definitely a powerful energy and I just wonder how one works with it in order to be internally stronger and rise above immediacies such as sexual gratification. Hope this wasn't too off the wall in asking. I've searched the forums and couldn't find any topic of sexual energy. Thank you for your time
