Sexuality is Ageless, Sensuality is Endless
SUPER SENIOR (93) Roslyn Sokoloff gives us the whole truth after she completed her first full on immersion sexuality retreat! Here is the "Afterward" dictated to me on the airplane.
So you think that you are too old, too stuck, too out of practice, or too set in your ways for an erotic expansion?
You may be wondering what the point is if you don't have a partner anymore.
What if this is about your wellness?
What if sexual aliveness could contribute to your longevity and over all happiness as you age? Give up your old story that you are done. Dried up. Finished. You may be feeling this at 40, or 50, or 60, or 70.... What would you think now that a 93 year old woman was able to experience EVERYTHING and more than her 20 year old self? Could you possibly accept that eros is ageless? Can you imagine that? Can you imagine rainbow colored orgasms? Female releases of every stripe? The feeling of aliveness that we tell the world is only reserved for the youngest of us is bullshit.
According to Roz who is now on her way home after completing a full on immersion retreat:
"I arrived to the Back to the Body Retreat with so many body pains and fears. Over the immersion they slowly disappeared by day 1."
"I felt lighter than the air in my sessions."
"I felt only ease, and no embarrassment."
"I loved swimming in the pool naked in a beautiful environment. That was a first for me!"
"I can't explain it, but I felt so light and free. So much energy was cleared out that I didn't need anymore."
"I learned so much from all the other women. I felt that we all shared every win. That was beautiful for me."
And then she wrote this story for all women: "This is the place from which poetry comes from...you have to feel deeply before you can find beautiful words. Then it flows out of you... one way or another it flows out. I was thinking of the obstacles that women put before them around this work...such younger women. And they worry like I used to walking to the beach. I would worry that the ocean would be too rough. Or the sand too hot for my feet, or my backpack would be too heavy. But guess what? The water was beautiful, and the sand didn't burn my feet. I was strong enough for my backpack and the breeze was perfect. To all you ladies with your noses stuck in a book. Put the book down. Get up. Walk with me to the beach."
Roz was with women in their 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's. It's time for us all to get used to this new world of female agency. Women are re-writing the rules and they are done with buying the nonsense about sexual pleasure and aging. Even after allowing ourselves to take large breaks from the erotic, once we are watered --- we can flower like the brightest lily in the pond.
Women can enjoy sexual authenticity and autonomy throughout their entire life span.
All of us at Back to the Body: Sensuous Retreats for Women hope there is something here for you. Especially Roz. She wants to inspire women at every age to trust the water.
With our love,
Pamela Madsen & Roslyn
