    For those who choose sexual abstinence, what you recommend from Reiki, that energy sexual accumulated, does not cause problems physical and emotional health?

    Hi Adela.

    There may be a common perception that celibacy or sexual abstinence requires suppression of sexual desires and/or impulses, but that may not apply to all situations.

    I was very sexually active until 2008 when I reached a point in my life that:
    1) I realized that I needed a break from those energies and
    2) I grew tired of having to go to the clinic every 2-3 months to get medication to kill the new infection I contracted.

    Suppression was not present when I decided to "go celibate" at all (honestly, I felt relief).

    Sexual energies were still present within me even though I did not act out those energies with others. I gave those energies permission to exist, and gave those energies permission to go where they needed to go within my own system to help me with my healing process.

    My healing process with celibacy took a couple years, and it worked with remarkable success.

    With hindsight, I can say that in my days of promiscuity that I was reacting to a deep, inner sense of loneliness -- for some reason at that time in my life, the compulsion to be sexually intimate with another seemed to lessen that feeling of loneliness, but that feeling always returned shortly after the intimacy with each companion ended.

    Celibacy allowed me to observe how sexual energies were flowing through my energy-system, through my mind, and how they were causing my personality to react to things in my environment. Celibacy gave me a new perspective that allowed me to awaken to great realizations and discover what it was that I really wanted, and once that realization was present and I "asked for it", I got it.

    My celibacy ended in June of 2010 when a college classmate and I agreed to enter a trial relationship... We decided it would be a trial because we didn't want to hurt the other or get hurt ourselves, so we figured 90 days was a fair amount of time to test whether or not the relationship would work.

    Well, the trial failed. By the end of the second month, at 60 days, we realized that the "trial" relationship was creating a tremendous amount of stress because we were both worried it would end at 90 days... so we stopped the trial.

    The trial failed, and we've been attached ever since -- and neither one of us has had to go to the clinic since we met (which means we've both been monogamous).

    Celibacy proved to be a useful experience in my life, but I didn't do it because I felt compelled to through peer pressure or spiritual beliefs -- I did it because I got tired of living my life the way I was and needed to change.

    The question was, speaking spiritual, how sublime this energy, using Reiki?
