Aw Marinne!!😠Thank you so very much for this message, I’m going to read it again and again and again when I feel confused or scared.
I can relate so much to the meat analogy. I’ve been eating according to Medical Medium teachings for a couple years now, and it feels like the most normal, best, freeing thing for me, but sometimes I remember how abnormal and restrictive this looks from outsiders.
And so I can imagine that, once I fully accept this abstinence practice, I can start to feel more comfortable with it and like you say that it could be very healing. That’s why I’m drawn to it in the first place, because I am attracted to the purity of love that’s expressed by her words and also when I try to imagine how a relationship is like without the pressure of sex.
The big difference with the meat analogy though is that it involves another person(my husband). Like, with my eating , I just do that myself and he eats differently and we both respect each others’ choices. But when it comes to sex, well, it takes two people. And it affects the relationship. So now after reading the comments and also going back to the first book, I’m convinced of what she says and what you echoed. But I’m still very afraid to go out and tell my husband I’m not going to do it anymore. I’m afraid it will completely destroy the relationship. Maybe it’s meant to be destroyed, if it was based on such illusion. But I wanted a happy family life for our daughter. But, for the sake of being a good model to my daughter too maybe it’s even more important that I live this practice of abstinence…
Some thoughts to share.
