Beginning in July I did a 40 day no orgasm trial. When you go from orgasming every day to orgasming never, it may seem that the energy and ecstasy of the orgasms is somehow lost. Like if you don’t use it that day, it’s lost.
What I found out is first that that energy ends up being redirected into more intense emotions and into a spectacular creative flow. Second, when the release finally does come, so to speak, it’s as if that energy, pent up for 40 days, releases all at once in something more beautiful and intense than 40 smaller orgasms.
I haven’t been posting essays for a couple weeks. You may think the energy and ecstasy of those posts is lost. But actually their creative energy was redirected powerfully into a single, explosive work that’s far greater than the sum of a couple weeks of essays.
A labor of love has kept me very busy. I’ve actually been working on this way longer than a couple weeks. I mentioned starting this book quite a while back, but as with all major projects the first 90% takes a lot of time, and then the second 90% takes a lot more. I always forget how much blood and sweat goes into these things.
Without further ado:
I’ve learned a lot over the decades and in my practice as an energy worker, but there has always been one source of frustration for me. I’ve been interested but skeptical of the information available about energy work.
“Let’s assume I believe all this stuff,” I’d say. “What does it mean? How does it work in real life? Why doesn’t anyone know about it like they know about buoyancy and genomes?” I won’t just believe whatever some hippy writes on the internet. Most of it is just hand waving that amounts to “because god!”
I wrote Energy Anatomy to be that grounded guide. I say that because I was the interested skeptic you may be now, and I wrote the book I wish I had when I began this journey. What that means to you is that your questions about energy work will finally be answered in a clear, accessible way, with minimum hand waving. What that really means to you is that you’ll be able to tap into the infinite joy and gratitude available to anyone who really gets this stuff. Your own unlimited wisdom and intuition.
This was especially labor intensive because every spread in the book has a painting, illustration or photo, most of which I painted from scratch. The visual work is so extensive and high quality that I’m going to release an entire separate package of posters and illustrations later on. Check out a few low resolution samples:
Illustration of the Nervous System showing major Nervous Plexi
Diagram of a well-functioning Heart Chakra. There are diagrams for each chakra, and one of the full system interacting.
Visualization of the Solar Plexus chakra (there's one of these for each major chakra!)
Now instead of just slogging through walls of text, you’ll be able to connect what you’re learning to a visual cue so you learn faster and more deeply, and so you actually remember what you learn. It means you’ll be able to put what you learn into practical action.
It’s easy to buy the book because you can choose either Paypal or Google Checkout to pay with a credit or debit card, or Paypal balance. Then you can download the book instantly. Doesn’t get easier!
One thing that I think goes without saying is that I’m not some slimy snake oil salesman. Even if I was, you know where I live, so to speak, because I have this blog. My point is that if you don’t like the book, then I don’t want your money. Just let me know, and I’ll give you a (fast) refund, no questions asked. I think that’s obviously how it should be done, but I want to be crystal clear, so I wrote it out.
Something I think is cool about this e-book format is that there’s an awesome navigation bar that allows you to instantly navigate to any part of the book:
That makes reading the book super fast and easy, but it also makes it awesome as a reference that you can refer to again and again.
I think this book will help a lot of people, and I definitely think you should check it out. In order for it to help a lot of people though, a lot of people need to see it. So I set up a special discount code for anyone who Tweets, Likes, Recommends, +1s, snail mails, carrier pigeons, or just plain shares this with other people.
Those people will get over 50% off the cover price, making the purchase a no-brainer. You might as well steal my underwear while you’re at it. No, actually I don’t wear underwear.
Anyway, instead of making some complicated system, I’m just going to give you the discount code and trust that you’ll do your part by spreading the word. Simple!

I’m looking forward to all your awesome feedback on this book. I poured myself into it, and you won’t be disappointed. Let me know what you think!
ps. If this kind of book is your thing, and you have a tribe to spread it to, let me know so I can set you up as an affiliate. That way you can help your friends and help yourself at the same time!
Are you saying you literally painted/created those pictures up there yourself?
A modern polymath!
I’ve actually been wondering about energy a lot lately. I’ll have to pick this one up as soon as I get hired get some money.
If I like it (I’m assuming it’s going to kick ass), I’d love to promote it on my site in due time.
Keep up the great work, man.

Yes, I literally mean that 8)
Let me know what you think of the book, I’m eager for feedback!
Funny you talk about celibacy and its energetic benefits because I’ve been working on my brahmacharya lately. Seriously, I was compiling my list of RSS feeds and I was adding your blog to my personal development category and this article caught my eye after I’d just deleted all of my fap folders and pornographic bookmarks so I can commit 100% to my undertaking. I swear there’s some sort of synchronous connection between me and your site, Pete.
Maybe you’re being shown the book so you can figure out where to direct all that new creative energy 8)
How many pages is it?
I think it clocks in at 84 pages.

Interesting, I’ll get it a thorough read through. Do you have any experience or knowledge of the spleen chakra?
Thanks a lot Eric, let me know what you think! What issues are you having, specifically re: spleen?
None, just curious. Some people give enough weight to the spleen to consider it an additional chakra, I’m not sure. Most of the meditations to get to it place it inbetween the 2nd and 3rd, sort of where the Hara would be. It might just be several ways of describing the same thing.
