Alternative uses for sexual energy...

Day 14 not using porn. Not as tired today despite a poor sleep last night. My mother is having some health issues and I think that was playing on my mind. It is still early days of not using porn yet but I am still amazed at how ingrained that habit is. As soon as I get home from work the first thought is to turn on the computer and look at some pussy, lol. I dismiss it quickly and easily but it is still there and fully automated. I look forward to the day that it stops creeping in so automatically.
Unlike some I have decided that going completely without masturbation is not for me. I will not use porn ever again and I will fap far less frequently. Not sure how often yet: maybe once a week/once a fortnight. I will take my time to work that out and who knows I may even remove it completely if that feels right. I do have a girlfriend and we have sleepovers about once every 2 weeks. So there is some regular sexual energy release.
During last night's sleeplessness I had reasonably frequent thoughts about masterbation as it would have been commonplace for me to use this to help relax in the past. But it was not a strong urge and easily put aside. Which is a dramatic change form even just a week ago when I had to literally stop my hands from touching my body. So things are definitely moving in the right direction.
I have been a great believer in meditation for a while now. Recently I downloaded an audiobook from audible called:How To Transmute Sexual Energy by Judy Lacroix as a way of utilising this now spare sexual energy in other ways. Well worth a look if you consider yourself a sexual person.
