Transcript

So much was coming up as I was listening to you,

May,

And I was thinking about,

You know,

The core of intimacy is this discovery all over again,

Right?

We come into this human being,

Experience to be,

Of emotional beings,

Emotionally driven beings,

And we come from this soul perspective,

And it's like the moment that what's wild to me is like the moment that that eye gaze happens in a way is so deeply spiritual,

And yet it's almost like in that moment it's gone,

And as we get older,

Depending on our circumstances and how we're raised,

Many of us just completely disconnect from our spiritual intimacy at the cost or within the focus of our physical intimacy,

And the almost funny thing to me from a spiritual meta perspective looking in on humanity is being the emotional beings that we are,

We are still somehow running from our emotional intimacy constantly,

Even though that is something that we seek so much,

Because our physical intimacy is the first thing we become aware of in our physical vessel,

And then we have so much discomfort along the way to that pleasure,

Or we are,

Many of us reprimanded for that pleasure in the physical body,

Like out the gate,

Right?

I mean,

Many little kids are curious about their bodies as we grow into adult babies from actual babies.

We're curious all the time,

And our curiosity is what enables us to access intimacy in a way,

And our intimacy is what allows us to have aliveness and to make sense of everything that's experienced.

Reviews

I am overwhelmed by what Jamie shares on this track. It is amazing how as we navigate through life we can lose sight of and even be unnerved by emotional intimacy; causing us to gravitate towards physical intimacy first and foremost.
