This implies that the couple will experience\u00a0complete union with\u00a0the possibility of reaching many orgasms. This kind of love fusion does not end with ejaculation for men nor\u00a0an explosive discharge of\u00a0sexual fluids for women.<\/p>\n<p>This technique is also known as coitus reservatus (refraining from ejaculation) or karezza. Both lovers, the man and the woman, have\u00a0desire but\u00a0totally refrain\u00a0from reaching orgasm with the resulting discharging of sexual energy. The man\u00a0allows\u00a0orgasm with ejaculation only when both lovers plan to have a baby.<\/p>\n<p>This kind of sexual fusion was named by Dr. Alice Stockham \u201ccoitus reservatus \u201d or \u201csublimated coitus\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Karezza technique also recommends taking\u00a0complete breaks\u00a0when experiencing intense erotic pleasure. During these breaks the erectile penis should remain immobile in the woman\u2019s vagina, while the lovers enjoy the mutual transfer of\u00a0erotic energetic fluids.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Stockham stated that\u00a0through this technique one achieves\u00a0youthfulness, longevity, and an increase in vitality.<\/p>\n<p>The control of sexual energy for women\u00a0is often spontaneous, and only in rare cases requires\u00a0minimal training.<\/p>\n<p>However for men this control and the halting of\u00a0ejaculation for long periods (weeks, months, years) requires\u00a0continuous and diligent training.<\/p>\n<p>Caution! \u00a0Blocking\u00a0the sexual energy discharge through the retention of sexual fluids of both lovers does not entail that procreation is impossible. The man can have\u00a0orgasm with ejaculation when the couple desire to have a baby.\u00a0Research has even proved that when couples that have practiced\u00a0continence procreate, the babies are\u00a0healthier and more vigorous.<\/p>\n<p>What\u00a0happens to the sperm when men\u00a0practice sexual continence? This is the most frequent question raised by\u00a0men upon hearing about\u00a0sexual continence for the first time. <\/p>\n<p>Far being harmful,\u00a0long term seminal retention leads to\u00a0biological transmutation of\u00a0sperm. This creates the opportunity for\u00a0the tremendous\u00a0energy that is produced to be\u00a0sublimated to the superior levels of the human being. This\u00a0happens particularly if the retention is accompanied by adequate techniques for raising energy to the superior levels of the person such as yoga exercises, intense intellectual effort and\u00a0other methods. Therefore sperm retention becomes a great energy through transmutation,\u00a0rather than\u00a0leading to\u00a0somatic disturbances.<\/p>\n<p>The beneficial effects that accompany the practice of\u00a0sexual continence are felt differently according to the power centres (chakras) that are awakened and harmonized through sublimation of the sexual energy.<br \/>\n    \u00a0<br \/>\n    yogaesoteric<br \/>\n    \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sexual continence involves a total awareness and control\u00a0during lovemaking.
