To apply this to masturbation involves making a private appointment with yourself.
QUESTION: So much energy and time goes into my bate. How can I incorporate meditation and sexual magick into my masturbation for positive life outcomes? Are there techniques or rituals you recommend?
RESPONSE: You came to the right “Master” with this question! (BTW, that is not a title I gave myself, but one that other men have bestowed on me.) The meditative practice I call Mindful Masturbation, I first began to create 22 years ago. It developed from simply applying the Buddhist concept of “mindfulness” to masturbation. Mindfulness, in Buddhism, is the core of meditation, and it simply means alertness, or paying full attention.
To apply this to masturbation involves making a private appointment with yourself: set aside some time. I suggest at least an hour or more, every week or more often. Give yourself total privacy and no distractions. Close the door, turn off the doorbell, draw the drapes, turn off your phone, computer, television. You want no interruptions. Lay out towels on an armchair, recliner or bed. Warm some 100% coconut oil (or at least have plenty of your favorite lube handy). Light a candle and turn on some soft ambient music; nothing too melodic, no distracting vocals.
Before you start, as with any kind of meditation, make sure you are breathing deep into your belly. IN breath, belly moves OUT; OUT breath, belly moves IN. Keep breathing deeply and do some stretches before you start to masturbate. When you sit or lie down to begin, also run your hands all over yourself, head-to-toes to become aware of your entire body. Take your time and use plenty of lubrication. No porn. Don’t get lost in fantasy or mental stories. Keep focused in your own body, your own sensations, everything you are actually feeling: here and now!
This provides a good start on combining meditation with masturbation. When you really get the hang of this, it will open the doors of perception for you to limitless possibilities of bliss!
Remember—mindfulness is not about being in your mind, on the contrary, it’s about being fully present in your entire body. There’s nothing really wrong with other ways to masturbate, but if you are a seriously dedicated masturbator, it’s worth giving Mindful Masturbation a try.
On my own (totally FREE) website, there is a series of nine brief instructional videos, “9 Golden Keys to Mindful Masturbation.” These can give you more detailed coaching and inspiration recorded by my handsome young friend, Blue Tyger. You can watch them and stroke along here: http://www.eroticengineering.com/9goldenkeys-full . What I call “Male Solosex Magick” is a bit more involved and can help you use your creative erotic energy to manifest what you want in your life. On the same page of videos, there are three vids on Male Solosex Magick also.
These practices are not complicated, but you cannot learn them in a day or a month, or even a year. They are the work of a lifetime. Congratulations on your erotic journey.
Enjoy!

A note from The Batemaster: I’m honored that the guys at Bateworld have asked me to respond to some questions from male masturbators around the world every week.
Always check with your doctor about any issues you might be experiencing with your sexual organs. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are important. This article’s purpose is to inform and entertain readers and is not a substitute for medical advice or treatment.
These techniques really work for me! Thanks so much Bruce!
I love re-reading these older posts as I always see something I missed previously. I have come to agree that mindful masturbation is something that only seriously dedicated masturbators can truly appreciate. It does take a commitment and dedicated focus, but it most certainly pays off. Even though it took me many months to finally master the breathwork (the final piece of the puzzle for me) that unlocked the world of the kind of bliss I had read about and dreamt about for years, the experiences leading up to my breakthrough were constantly improving and, perhaps just as important, I was learning new things about myself through the process.
This why it was life-altering for me. While the physical pleasure is truly beyond words at times, and I shamelessly celebrate it for hours daily, the process of constantly becoming more self-aware and the peaceful experience of zoning out the entire world and its noise and confusion is why I will always need this to center my spirit. It truly is a life-long journey, and I thank you, Bruce for emphasizing both benefits to those who seek to continue learn from you.
