Key Assertions That Help To Summarize This Article:
Focus more attention on the person inside the body.
Sex lies at the core of one’s identity and at the root of one’s need to discover joy or avoid loneliness.
Heartwood Path Sex, unlike conventional sex, is not mainly an outlet leading to a release of sexual pressure; but rather an inlet leading to relationship, enchantment, and the holding of sexual/physical/ spiritual pleasure.
The wonderful results of Heartwood Path Sex have a lot to do with abundant tranquility and not very much to do with ambitious conquests or passing gratification.
Tell someone you like––your partner, maybe––the little things that you notice which makes them appealing and attractive.

To put this essential message to work for you, tell someone you like––your partner, maybe––the little things that you notice about their personality or shared inner world operations which make him or her appealing and attractive. Focus more attention on the person inside the body. Write a poem to your beloved. Develop your sense of humor. Laugh more, particularly on bad days. Look for the humor in the drudgery, the sad times, the moments that would otherwise evoke resentment. Be a little crazy once and a while. Write down ways to inspire laughter and craziness. Laugh at yourself and the things you do. That way you can nearly always be amused.

HumaNatureConnect Activity
Seeking Abundant Tranquility
For this activity, ask the questions that follow to your chosen natural object but do not expect answers the questions immediately. Just ask for permission to ponder these questions on site in nature; immerse yourself in the qualities of the natural being and its natural surroundings; use one or more of your natural senses; think of your chosen being as an emissary carrying the wisdom of nature to you after granting you its consent to have this connection experience by remaining attractive; resonate with the underlying tone or rhythm you feel in your heart as you sit, stand, or lie next to your chosen natural being; allow the questions to be processed (answered) in the natural realm of your unconscious mind overnight; after a night’s dream-filled sleep, return to this activity and write out your answers. Doing so allows the intelligence of nature to silently (and perhaps in your dreams) work its magic on you so that you can then write out answers that are not tainted by fluctuating social pressures or willy-nilly moods. The following questions are adapted from a book by Taylor Clark(2011):
In what ways, if any, do I put fear to work for me?
Do I breathe slowly and deeply as a way to counter the negative effects of fear?
Do I write about my fears in a journal? If not, what would I say in such a log?
How, if at all, do I train, practice and prepare as a way to become tranquil in the face of fear?
When fearful, do I focus on the present moment and the task at hand or do I grow preoccupied with worries?
Do I postpone worries by writing them down and scheduling a time to deal with them later, perhaps when they are no longer so bothersome?
How do I expose myself to manageable fears in a way that builds up my ability to handle stressful fears?
In what ways have I, if at all, accepted uncertainty and lack of control?
In what ways, if at all, do I reframe fears in ways that lead to more tranquility?
In what ways, if at all, do I use humor to gain tranquility in the face of fear?
In what way, if at all, do I build faith in myself?
What principles, if any, have I used to lead myself into a sense of tranquility?
In what ways have I welcomed the inevitable fear, anxiety, and stress into my life as a way to make it more tranquil?

Nocturnal Pilgrimage
For best results, write down your impressions of each night’s dreams in your journal using the Heartwood Path Dreaming Time Protocols found in the Appendix. Afterwards, consider sharing your Dream Tending with others.
In many of our Nocturnal Pilgrimage sections, it was suggested that you set an intention to have a certain dream while you sleep. Now that you have had experience either succeeding in choosing your dream in advance or failing to “incubate” a certain dream, it is time to expand on this vitally important topic.
Incubating Dreams—that is, choosing what you are going to dream about on any given night—is a very important key to your success in moving down the Heartwood Path, to finding Triple A happiness, and to living in a beautifully sustainable environment. Of all the ways to awaken within your dreams—to examine and control your dreams consciously while you are sleeping—incubating your dreams is most important. And all you have to do to choose your dreams is to have the intention to do so. The foundation of lucid dreaming is having the burning desire to become lucid.
The brain does not quibble over the difference between a thought and an action. For this reason, think about becoming conscious in your dreams and you will become lucent in your dreams. Likewise, think that you will receive guidance, information, and healing from nature and you will carry these benefits to you on the impressions that across the bridge of awareness you establish between the outer world natural being and your own inner world. Go over what you learned here about seeking lucidity and tranquility before you prepare for sleep.
