Bay Area Sex Therapist Unveils How Older People Can Embrace Sexuality Through Psychedelics
For older people who had psychedelic experiences in their earlier years, those memories can serve as profound touchstones for current self-exploration and healing.

This process can be particularly enriching when addressing aspects of senior sexuality.

When we set a firm intention, it serves as a guiding principle for our behavior. We are more likely to make decisions that align with our intentions, taking steps that lead us closer to our desired outcomes. For instance, an athlete who intends to win a championship will be more committed to training and pushing their limits, while a student aiming for academic excellence will be more diligent in their studies. For a psychedelic voyager, setting intentions is a way to explore spiritual expansion, childhood experiences with more compassion, or mystical experiences. Intention is also helpful in a sexual or sensual experience. It can help if you are desiring something different or deeper with your partner or lover.

Remember, each individual's journey is unique, so approach the process with an open mind, curiosity, and self-compassion.
