How many ways can we be Yummy?

I have been thinking a lot about all the ways we can be yummy with ourselves and with another. So here are some ways I have been having Fun in the Yum. Can you come up with more? Yummy Hugs last for at least five breaths minimum. Foot Massages and try and both massage each other's feet at the same time. Laying on your belly on the Foor and wiggle around, try making love to the floor. Deep Breathing is yummy when so you take in a huge filling breath all the way to the top, swallow and a long slow sensual exhale. Ear Kissing. Head Rubs. Kissing with Honey by coating your lips with some honey or put a dab on your tounge. Walking Barefoot on the Grass or just simply laying on the grass and look at the sky's expanse. Try that at night and gaze at the stars and talk about your dreams. Belly's are yummy, massage and squeeze the belly and for sure try giving someone a raspberry there sometime. Tree Hugging and just surrendur into the support of the tree. Whip Cream eaten off a nose, or other places. Nose Kissing. Neck Biting. Toe Licking. Try just laying in the floor and have another lay all the way on top of you and moosch you into the floor. Making sounds of vowels with each outbreath and, in partucular, vibrating yummm and mmmm when something is good. Make funny faces and noises in the mirror or at each other, be like a wild monkey! Let a juicy peach or other fruit run down the inside of your arm and lick it off. Dry brush your skin. Have someone brush your hair. For fun, try faking a laugh and keep on laughing until it fully takes over and you can't stop. Cook some yummy food and eat it with your hands and not utensils or better yet feed each other. Share a piece of chocolate and kiss until it melts between you.... I look forward to your ideas in yum! I hope you try some of these and let me know how it was for you.

Blessed Summer Daze

Happy to be swimming almost everyday. My body feels so alive in water. I must be part mermaid. I love to swim under water and arch my back into cobra.
I love doing head stands in the water into back flips. I love play. Let's call it Sacred Play. My heart feels light and joy abounds in everything. Even doing errands seem more fun. I feel like the joy is flowing thru me and it doesn't subside just because I am out of the water. Kinda like Tantra of loving.....I don't stop being in love just because I am no longer in the arms of my Beloved. Speaking of Beloved. Where are you? I am waiting......

Where is Yummatopia?

It is in your heart, in the space around you and within each connection you share with another. Some people think we would need a house or temple to be in the yum. Yummatopia is everywhere! And you can have it now, right here. Breathe in and savor this moment. Right now, as you sit before your great computer screen altar, take another breath in and use you tounge to delightfully taste and swallow the yumminess of the rich prana of life. Take another breath this time open mouthed and feel the soft entrance of that breath pass your lips, lick them a bit and again savor the taste of life. Hummmm. Yummmm. Make a sound of yum and feel it vibrate within. M..m..M. Each moment is alive with possibility. Look up and see something that catches your eye and give you a jolt of sweet beauty or something that symbolizes something joyful as you gaze at it. Give graditude to yourself that you are connected to life's incredible beauty and wonder. Gradtiude is the most amazing tool to feeling the yum in life. Think of someone you are grateful for and feel how having this graditude in your heart brings you closer to them and that you can not help but open and feel good. So, my dear ones, I invite you to play in the moment, be in the yum of it, and share and encourage those you share time with to be in the yum with you. Carolena and Amber are,after a year of traveling and yumming it up, thinking of the possibility of another house of yum to be made in the Bay area. You can help by holding a vision of this and we will see what the goddess brings.

Solstice Night in Santa Cruz

In a far off land, I walk the velvet shore of the Pacific Ocean. Still a stranger here on the west coast, my preferred coast at the moment. I still feel the need to travel. But tonight on the solstice or just one night away, when everything feels so dark and still, I sit here alone and reflect on the year that is fast approaching closure. My morning walks on the ocean have been like medicine for my soul. As the waves slap against the beach, I can feel her reverberation deep inside my solar plexus. I walk barefootie, feeling the cool sand and even in daring moments the icy edge of the water. The sensation sends an ache through my body, enough to avoid the experience until repeating this ritual of pain the next day. The ocean is sooo seductive. The waves are calming, trancing me into a lull of nothingness. Come in for a float, she says. I just watch and long for this "dip" in the most delicious way. Will I ever give it to myself? Like go out a buy and wet suit? I would swim in her then. Or do I just want to savour my longing for this? I am enjoying the longing and savoring the wait. Like knowing that I will be reunited with my Tantric lover on Christmas Day. How special to long for that kind of connection. I can recall a time when these feelings would be overwhelming. Now it is a sweet hum, this tumescence. No doubt a gift of my cronehood. I celebrate this solstice knowing that I am dying to be reborn in every moment. I am leaving behind any hallucination that there is anything lacking in the way my life has unfolded. I am grateful for it all. What a miraculous life! Next stop Chicago.

Choose Green

In everything there is a choice. I choose green, because it's sustainable. I chose to support humankind because it's the loving thing to do. I live as green as I can because it's loving to myself and to my fellow humans, and to the planet I live on. I meditate because it gets me back in touch with that connection, that we are all one. It's very true and we all know it, it's just that we're distracted and we forget. For me it's important, and I recommend to others, that we get reconnected with ourselves and what's important. When we do come from that space, what's important for us is important for everyone. When we operate from that space of the self, everyone wins. It's the most loving thing we can do for ourselves and each other, so why not?

Mount Shasta and Pleasure For One

This particular summer night felt almost balmy. Unusual for the mountain. I was 9000 ft up on breathtaking Mount Shasta which can be windy and cold after sun down, even in July . But this evening was still and warm. I had just gotten back from a long hike lasting till evening and my legs were tired. I had visioned being up here with a lover, but our schedules just weren't congruent. I have been up here many summers before, alone and or with a lover and have always felt that it was more than a camp out. The energy of Mount Shasta and our intention created our time on the mountain to be a sacred journey of renewal and rejuvenation. Tonight as I lay alone in my tent feeling my tired body, I felt a longing to be made love to. I opened the flap of my tent to reveal the majestic view of the snow capped mountain in front of me in the distance. Aaah, I imagined her Presence entering me and began to feel intensely aroused by the thought of masturbating in front of her, with her there to witness me in my most private ritual. I began by taking off all my clothes and lying naked atop my bedding. With the mindfulness of mediation, on each inhalation of my breathe, I imagined the mountain entering into my yoni and each exhalation I surrendered to her power. I placed my left hand upon my heart and my right hand on top of my pelvis feeling the subtle undulation with each breathe. I let out a deep sigh of anticipation. I was feeling so aroused, I felt downright “horny” for myself. I reached for my special massage oil out of my nearby pack. I poured some into my hand and warmed the oil in my palm and then began to stroke my heart in a clockwise and circular motion. As my heart flower opened I felt a yummy all-over sensation of warmth of joy and felt aglow with could be only described as romantic love to this mountain. I was flooded with gratitude for this magical life on this exquisite planet. I felt the depth of my Tantric path allowing me to feel held and loved in every moment, especially one as magnificent as this one.

With each breathe my body became more and more aroused. My yoni was pulsing with life and wanting to be touched. I decided to tease my sacred flower and awaken her slowly, as I love my lover’s to do. I began to stroke ever so lightly the top surface of my pubic hair. The fullness of my mound with her thick mostly dark, wild and unruly hair made me beam with pride. I had cultivated this chaos upon my body, never waivering in the midst of a shaven and trimmed culture, to allow her to be her supremely unbridled self! Yay. For me this felt like my own personal Feminine Empowerment. Getting myself off was starting to feel exquisitely empowering, which was making me extremely wet.

I began to slowly tug at the tips of my pubic hair, awakening the gazillions of nerve endings on the inner lip of my swollen labia majora. I took a deep inhale and could smell the subtle musky scent of my yoni united with the sweet fragrance of the warm mountain night. My exhalation this time came out with a sound that sounded part purr and part growl. Ah my Jaguar Priestess had been released. Perhaps not as much as when I am with a lover, riding his sacred lingham into the total abandonment of the self, merging with the One while ever revealing my soul into the darkest part my shadow and into the brightest beam of my light, but enough to make this ritual an engaging and arousing interplay, between yoni and my expert digits.

I could wait no longer, and insisted that I enter the door of my pulsing temple. Mmmmm, she was slippery and wet. I wanted to taste her and so I did, lifting my drenched middle finger, appropriately the fire finger according to esoteric sciences, to my lips. Her flavors were extraordinarily sweet as I had been mostly fasting, eating only organic fruits and deliberately drinking as much water from her bubbling spring at Panther Meadow as was possible, and then drinking a bit more. Often I would drink so much of her healing and abundant waters, that I would continue to drink even while peeing on her grassy banks. This is often my cleansing ritual that I do every year, living wildly in the woods, fasting, meditating and communing with the stillness of the mountain.

I was feeling enthralled with the exquisite tapestry of turn on, so many feelings and sensations like an intricate tapestry of colors.. Here I was feeling turn on, arousal, spiritual connection to all of creation, a personal, in-love and romantic connection with nature and feeling this divine nourishment to my body and soul.

My sensual play lasted for hours until I fell blissfully asleep. I never did climax, not in the usual sense. Instead I held on to this precious energy and used it to super-charge me until the purrfect moment to release made itself known.

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Pleasure

These are our inalienable rights as a human to be. It is so good to be alive! Breathing into the life force energy available in each moment, filling ourselves with activation and awareness. Having the freedom of choice to receive and express this aliveness into yumminess right now. Move freely, speak passionately, connect lovingly with this sensual world. We are all love beings sharing this potential of being. It is our birthright to be free of restriction, judgement and fear. Welcome yourself fully into the unique, open, beautiful self we all are and share it with the world. We are a vehicle of pleasure, good clean fun in the yum, harm none. When we pursue pleasure with an open heart, an aware presence, a sense of wonderment, an honoring the divine in another we naturally arrive into feeling good and true. Discover what pleases you and have the freedom to ask for it. Find out what is yummy for you and offer that to a beloved. It is a rich and amazing time to be alive. In this time of making important choices, remember your are always at choice and everything is meant to be shared. Choose love! For love is all there is.
