A man who leaks his sexual energy, his gaze is hungry.
Speaker:He's constantly scanning, looking for novelty.
Speaker:He's not present.
Speaker:Women feel it.
Speaker:Men feel it.
Speaker:He himself feels that his sexual energy is not contained.
Speaker:It is scattered outward, leaking into all kinds of places, and
Speaker:robbing him of his true power.
Speaker:In a committed relationship, this leads to a lack of safety, a lack of true
Speaker:connection and intimacy and trust.
Speaker:But even if a man is single, one might say, is it not just harmless?
Speaker:There's a big difference between a harmless flirt done in a conscious
Speaker:way when a man is single or constantly unconsciously gazing, scanning,
Speaker:looking for novelty, having that hungry gaze and totally losing
Speaker:presence, and thereby losing power.
Speaker:Why does this happen?
Speaker:Why do so many men unconsciously leak their power everywhere they go
Speaker:and they carry this, the wandering eye into committed relationships?
Speaker:And how can men stop this leak to become fully sovereign, rooted
Speaker:in their true masculine power?
Speaker:Today, I'll break down why the wandering eye has become so normalized,
Speaker:what it really reveals, how a man can reclaim his energy so women
Speaker:can truly feel safe with him again, so he feels sovereign and rooted.
Speaker:And this episode is not only for men.
Speaker:Women will finally hear words for something they have
Speaker:felt deeply in their hearts.
Speaker:Welcome to the Masculine and Feminine Dynamics podcast.
Speaker:My name is Lorin Krenn and I'm a coach, author and hypnotherapist.
Speaker:I help you to understand masculine and feminine dynamics at the deepest level.
Speaker:Let's dive in.
Speaker:The wondering eye is not just looking.
Speaker:A present gaze is neutral.
Speaker:It's not looking for something.
Speaker:The wondering eye, that leaky energy is a form of taking, a form of scanning.
Speaker:There is a hunger for novelty and excitement to feed from that validation,
Speaker:to validate perhaps something through that gaze or to simply be fully unconscious
Speaker:in that objectification of the woman that a man is scanning and gazing at.
Speaker:There's a leakage of presence and a leakage of power.
Speaker:How does this feel to others?
Speaker:Specifically talking about women?
Speaker:Women feel unsafe, unseen, and almost unconsciously repelled by this hungry
Speaker:gaze, at least very conscious women.
Speaker:Men, even though they might not be consciously aware of it, can
Speaker:sense that a man who is constantly unconsciously gazing, scanning is not
Speaker:very rooted and anchored inside himself.
Speaker:So this is not necessarily something conscious because this
Speaker:has become so normalized in men, but other men can feel there isn't
Speaker:a really strong leadership here.
Speaker:The energy is outward rather than contained inward.
Speaker:Power is not contained.
Speaker:Power is leaking.
Speaker:And the energy, this wondering eye specifically at the extreme, constantly
Speaker:unconsciously engaging in this, the energy it's sending out is, I'm a boy hunting,
Speaker:not a king who's rooted in himself.
Speaker:Let's make this more practical.
Speaker:A man who leaks energy in this way is not rooted inside himself.
Speaker:He's led by last rather than presence and meaning.
Speaker:Rather than value and virtue.
Speaker:No man led by last truly respects himself.
Speaker:And if a man does not fully respect and honor himself, he cannot
Speaker:fully respect and honor others.
Speaker:His inner lack of integrity is mirrored outward.
Speaker:Most men don't realize that when they are deeply in unconscious scanning,
Speaker:gazing and object objectification of women out on the street or wherever
Speaker:it is, that in these moments thy're deeply led by lust, and that also that
Speaker:there is a deep disrespect behind that.
Speaker:Because it is essentially equating a woman to a mere sexual object.
Speaker:But in that moment, because of a lack of presence and consciousness,
Speaker:there isn't a necessarily conscious realization behind it.
Speaker:Yes, there are men who don't give a shit, but that's more in the small percentage.
Speaker:Most men who engage in this, it's been so conditioned.
Speaker:It's so ingrained in a man, and they don't have that level of, they don't hold
Speaker:themselves to that standard of integrity inside themselves, that their lack of
Speaker:respect towards their own integrity and doing what is right, and being a
Speaker:man who is contained in his energy and not leaking outwards, this is being
Speaker:reflected, that there is a sense of deep disrespect and disregard of a woman
Speaker:and only seeing her as a sexual object.
Speaker:So let's dive into the core root and reasons.
Speaker:As to why this wandering eyes here, why there is such a leakage
Speaker:in power and sexual energy.
Speaker:And also then afterwards, the step-by-step solution for men to break
Speaker:free from it and for women to hear the journey men need to go through
Speaker:in order to free themselves of this.
Speaker:Number one is a normalization and unhealthy masculine role models.
Speaker:So let me give you an example from my personal life.
Speaker:I've talked about this several times already.
Speaker:My father died very early in my life, my role model diet.
Speaker:So I was desperately as a teenager looking for male role models.
Speaker:But what of course so often happens is that you find the wrong male role
Speaker:models because there aren't many men who embody the awakened or healthy
Speaker:masculine energy that I'm talking about.
Speaker:More and more now.
Speaker:But as I was growing up and lost my father, the role models I had were all
Speaker:men who had a deeply unhealthy and wounded relationship with the feminine, and who
Speaker:all also had a father wound themselves.
Speaker:Could even say that my kind of inner wounding felt connected
Speaker:unconsciously to their inner wounding.
Speaker:That's most likely why I was drawn to these people.
Speaker:And of course, as it works, the deep sense of belonging, it's so primal.
Speaker:I wanted to belong, I wanted to be part of the tribe, I wanted to be seen and
Speaker:validated by these role models and what I learned is chase women and the kind
Speaker:of gaze and then, these men saying look at how hot her arse is or, or, or saying
Speaker:things, strange things such as, um, four o'clock, which was a kind of signal of
Speaker:looking where the number four is, there was a hot girl, quote unquote, and, uh.
Speaker:Saying Nice tits or whatever, or, or making sounds after they see
Speaker:a beautiful woman, physically, beautiful woman on the street.
Speaker:Acts that were, of course, there's a deep disrespect in that it wasn't necessarily
Speaker:that they had a hatred towards women.
Speaker:It was that they objectified women and disrespected women in that way because
Speaker:they themselves didn't know and have never been modeled by another man, what
Speaker:it means to live with deep integrity and to treat the feminine in the right way.
Speaker:But this is how I grew up.
Speaker:This is what I saw day in and day out, and this is what happens for so many men.
Speaker:This behavior becomes normalized.
Speaker:Everyone else is doing it.
Speaker:Young boys wanting to belong.
Speaker:So there are a lot of elements that play into this.
Speaker:I'm not downplaying this, I'm not excusing men, but I'm telling you the honest truth
Speaker:that this is not just about men decide to be our arseholes, disrespect women,
Speaker:objectify women, and don't give a shit.
Speaker:This might be the truth for some men in this world, but
Speaker:is not the truth for most men.
Speaker:Most men would've experienced something what I experienced along the lines of
Speaker:that, this has been deeply normalized.
Speaker:And it never sat right with me.
Speaker:It never felt good to see that behavior.
Speaker:But I overrided my intuition for belonging, at least for a while on
Speaker:my path, because I felt abandoned by the death of my father, I felt lost.
Speaker:I didn't know what it meant to be a man.
Speaker:So my desire to belong to be accepted was more important than trusting my deeper
Speaker:intuition and deeper sense as a teenager.
Speaker:But then what happened is eventually it felt so empty and so off to me that I
Speaker:realized I could no longer live that life of trying to fit into a system that I
Speaker:see as deeply wounded and not right, and not in integrity in my soul and heart.
Speaker:The normalization heights, the problem.
Speaker:The constant porn use, the scanning for validation, the hungry gaze,
Speaker:the objectification of women, the constant chasing of novelty.
Speaker:It becomes so normalized that it's not seen as a problem, as an issue, as a
Speaker:leaking of energy, as a leaking of power.
Speaker:It's almost equated to manhood and being a man itself.
Speaker:Well, this is just how it works.
Speaker:So, again, I'm not excusing men, but you've gotta put yourself in the shoes of
Speaker:men who are young boys, a father absent diet, or emotionally, physically absent,
Speaker:not at all in his power, not modeling what it means to be a man, a healthy
Speaker:masculine man, and the desire to belong, the desire to be validated for first time
Speaker:in their life, because in that is a desire to be loved, to be accepted, to be seen.
Speaker:So there are a lot of elements that play into this normalization.
Speaker:Imagine a young boy doesn't have the resources and, and level of
Speaker:awareness and consciousness to, in these moments, reject it and say,
Speaker:no, this is not how I want to live.
Speaker:This is out of integrity.
Speaker:I choose to live like this and, and to spend time in deep solitude.
Speaker:This is what I eventually did after few years of experiencing this environment
Speaker:and trying to fit into it, even though I felt more and more lost and
Speaker:more and more empty inside myself.
Speaker:But that wasn't an easy path.
Speaker:Being in solitude, in nature, reclaiming integrity, I felt deeply, deeply alone.
Speaker:At the same time, my soul and heart just told me better to be alone and
Speaker:live in truth and integrity than to be surrounded by dysfunction and wounding
Speaker:and, uh, living out of integrity.
Speaker:But that's not an easy journey.
Speaker:That's not an easy thing we ask of men to just override their deep need
Speaker:for belonging, heal their abandonment wound than to say, I'd rather be
Speaker:alone in solitude than to be accepted.
Speaker:And living without integrity and out of alignment with my truth.
Speaker:Gladly, things are changing now gladly because of the work I'm doing, because
Speaker:of the work other men are doing.
Speaker:Men's groups are emerging more and more.
Speaker:It's so beautiful to see this work unfolding so rapidly and so powerfully.
Speaker:At least it feels rapidly and powerfully to me because I'm in this bubble
Speaker:of men's work, but if you look at it at a collective level, it's not
Speaker:necessarily unfolding rapidly and exponentially, unbelievably fast, but
Speaker:still there's a huge shift going on.
Speaker:When I was going through this, I had no fucking clue of men's groups
Speaker:and, and ideas of what it means to be a man and conscious masculinity.
Speaker:Which leads us into root cause or reason number two, which
Speaker:is an unintegrated shadow.
Speaker:I often call this eroticized wounds.
Speaker:An eroticized wound is when we bypass the safety of our heart for pleasure.
Speaker:No one really knows.
Speaker:There isn't a real scientific evidence for this because it's really tricky and
Speaker:no one understands really how this works with arousal and attraction, et cetera,
Speaker:to a degree, but not entirely, of course.
Speaker:But one theory which I really like is that for the brain, it's easier to
Speaker:sexualize things than to feel the rawness of the trauma and pain we experience.
Speaker:So when we feel abandoned as children, young boys feel abandoned or young
Speaker:girls feel abandoned, wounds can become sexualized, and apparently also by some
Speaker:theories, kind of the place where we store trauma, or at least the memory,
Speaker:trauma stored in the whole body, but the memory of trauma in the brain is near
Speaker:the part that is responsible for arousal.
Speaker:So this is a theory at the end of the day, we don't know exactly, so don't take me
Speaker:literally here, but I believe that that might actually be a part truth or get
Speaker:very close to it, that these things become confused because people being attracted
Speaker:to this kind of dark sexual energy, flirtation and, and all these things,
Speaker:leaking energy and bypassing what is right and integrity and safety for last.
Speaker:I believe there might be a huge, there is a huge element of trauma
Speaker:and wounding here, which leads to an unintegrated shadow, specifically
Speaker:an unintegrated sexual shadow.
Speaker:The chase, the conquering, the admiration from women, it feeds that sexual shadow,
Speaker:which has been unconsciously fed for so many years, the constant scanning,
Speaker:gazing, overuse of porn, being overly exposed to sexual images, objectifying
Speaker:women constantly, a hypersexualized brain feeding a sexual shadow.
Speaker:Attraction born from shadow is a high, not a sole truth.
Speaker:It's a high from a drug and it's a high so many men are constantly looking for,
Speaker:but it's a high that only like any drug, the more you experience of it, the more
Speaker:empty you feel afterwards and the more you seek it, it becomes this endless
Speaker:cycle until you truly choose to heal it and break free from it at the root.
Speaker:Most men don't even know that for most of their life, they've been unconsciously
Speaker:feeding almost like a monster, a sexual shadow inside themselves.
Speaker:The constant engagement in these things, the constant hyper sexualizing,
Speaker:absolutely everything around them.
Speaker:And this also being normalized because everyone else, or almost everyone
Speaker:else is doing it, so it's not even seen as something that needs to be
Speaker:worked through, healed or integrated.
Speaker:And then the third root or core reason really is the absence of
Speaker:devotion, the absence of devotion and purpose or mission dedicated
Speaker:to something higher than ourselves.
Speaker:Because without a deeper purpose, without a deeper vision of who a man wants
Speaker:to be, what he wants to create, the values and virtues he wants to embody,
Speaker:the legacy he wants to leave the world with, last can very easily hijack a man.
Speaker:Viktor Frankl, the concentration camp survivor, I believe, born in the same
Speaker:town where I was in the same city where I was born Vienna, from Austria.
Speaker:Incredible story.
Speaker:It's the famous book, A Man's Search for Meaning, incredible read.
Speaker:But he speaks about in the absence of purpose, kind of last
Speaker:anti distraction takes over.
Speaker:So sexual energy is not something that can be stopped.
Speaker:It's like trying to put a lid over an overflowing river, like putting a
Speaker:towel over a river that is so powerful, or trying to stop a waterfall with a
Speaker:little towel or two towels or whatever.
Speaker:You get the gist of the, of what I'm saying here.
Speaker:It just doesn't work.
Speaker:The water is too powerful.
Speaker:This life force energy, which is sexual energy, it's too powerful, it flows.
Speaker:If you stop the flow, you suppress it.
Speaker:This leads to all kinds of other problems.
Speaker:What you suppress gets pushed into the shadow.
Speaker:It is not integrated.
Speaker:It is not owned.
Speaker:So what we need to do rather is to harness and contain sexual energy.
Speaker:And the most powerful way to do this is to devote ourselves to something higher.
Speaker:Because if a man is led by last, it ultimately means he hasn't yet
Speaker:found a purpose and devotion to something higher than himself.
Speaker:His primal instincts are leading.
Speaker:Something else needs to lead.
Speaker:And it doesn't matter whether you call that God, universe, spirit, shiva, the
Speaker:divine mass, divine masculine, Allah, it does not matter what you call it.
Speaker:You can call it virtue like the stoics, or it doesn't matter.
Speaker:You can make this practical or the most spiritual name in the world, it's all
Speaker:one and the same at the end of the day.
Speaker:It's about that higher ideal, that higher value, that higher vision.
Speaker:Because when you have that, everything else in your life, orients orients itself
Speaker:towards that, sexual energy including.
Speaker:Sexual energy, is pure power.
Speaker:Sexual energies makes you vibrant, alive, vital.
Speaker:Without it, you'd feel much less alive and vibrant and have much less
Speaker:fire and energy, but it needs to be channeled into something higher.
Speaker:Don't confuse this with transmutation.
Speaker:You need to like a perfect saint, a saint is an illusion.
Speaker:Krishna Morty said this amazing quote.
Speaker:The progression from sinner to saint is just another illusion.
Speaker:So if you go, oh, I transmute all this sexual energy, only in love and light and
Speaker:purity and innocence, that's all bullshit.
Speaker:That's all creating another shadow, kind of spiritual monk and enlightened
Speaker:persona, which is not true.
Speaker:There is that animalistic sexual side of us, strong sexual fantasies and desires.
Speaker:We're not suppressing them.
Speaker:Instead, we want to go into full ownership and dedicate ourselves to
Speaker:something higher than ourselves, a higher idea, higher vision, higher mission.
Speaker:It's a powerful quote.
Speaker:When you live without devotion, without purpose, your energy is for sale for the
Speaker:highest bidder, which usually is last.
Speaker:So just before we go into the solution, the step by step steps you can take
Speaker:very briefly, let's co talk about the cost of leaking sexual energy.
Speaker:Women lose respect, feel unsafe, disconnect sexually, women feel
Speaker:that lack of presence, the constant scanning, looking for novelty,
Speaker:there is no sovereignty, there is no sense of inner rootedness.
Speaker:All there really is is that the hungry gaze of the boy.
Speaker:Men themselves, even if they might be disconnected from that, they
Speaker:feel depleted, often ashamed, disassociated, and out of integrity.
Speaker:And life itself loses vitality as expressed before because sexual
Speaker:energy is life energy, it's hurting everyone, and the one it destroys
Speaker:the most is the man himself.
Speaker:It's not about stopping this for a woman, it's about stopping it for himself first.
Speaker:So what is the solution?
Speaker:How can a man contain and reclaim his power?
Speaker:It starts with step one, which is awareness.
Speaker:Holding yourself to a higher standard.
Speaker:It will happen again if it's conditioned into you, but catch
Speaker:yourself every time your energy leaks.
Speaker:Looking is not the issue.
Speaker:Unless you are looking for something, you are looking at something,
Speaker:you are trying to scan you're objectifying, that's different.
Speaker:But naturally it's not about looking on the ground and trying to be some kind of,
Speaker:I never look and restricting yourself.
Speaker:In your views, specifically if you're in a city or in your place with a lot
Speaker:of people, there will be other women.
Speaker:I mean, it's impossible not to see other women walking past you,
Speaker:walking in front of you or whatever.
Speaker:It's impossible.
Speaker:The key is looking with presence and not becoming unconscious in these moments, and
Speaker:allowing that kind of unconscious gazing and hungry, that hungry look to take over.
Speaker:That leak, that subtle leak, which is not so subtle if you really look into
Speaker:it or feel into it a deeper level.
Speaker:So if you notice that scanning for novelty, pause for a moment and the way
Speaker:to do this, step number two is pattern interrupt, which is one powerful breath.
Speaker:And you want to direct that breath into your cock and
Speaker:balls, into your lower belly.
Speaker:So really breathing deeply through your nostrils.
Speaker:It's not about 10 hours of breath work.
Speaker:One powerful breath in the moment interrupts the pattern and is often
Speaker:much more powerful than the most powerful breath work session in
Speaker:a moment where you feel aligned.
Speaker:Not that there's anything wrong with it, but it's about when it is used.
Speaker:And here you want to interrupt.
Speaker:Interrupt the pattern.
Speaker:So one powerful breath.
Speaker:Each time you catch yourself with your awareness and you
Speaker:take one powerful breath.
Speaker:And as you do that, you are able to snap yourself out of that energy.
Speaker:And then what do you do?
Speaker:You don't look, you consciously disengage.
Speaker:You don't look again, you don't check again.
Speaker:Instead, you bring your energy inward.
Speaker:You don't allow it to go outward.
Speaker:And what you're doing here is you are containing your sexual energy, and as you
Speaker:do this, you become more magnetic, you feel more powerful, and you become million
Speaker:times more attractive to the feminine, especially the awakened feminine.
Speaker:Your energy transforms because this is true self-mastery and
Speaker:masculine embodiment, from last and primal instincts to sovereignty.
Speaker:Step number three: or step number two, if you will, because the breath
Speaker:is part of step number one of their awareness Is containment practices.
Speaker:And what this essentially means is you don't wanna get rid of a habit because
Speaker:otherwise you rely on will strength.
Speaker:So if you constantly watch porn, for instance, uh, many times during the week
Speaker:or whatever it is for you, and then you say, I'm gonna stop right now, and then
Speaker:maybe on a good week you stop, or maybe a good month or even longer perhaps, but
Speaker:then something really painful happens and you fall right back into it and
Speaker:feel even more ashamed, this is because that constant, wherever the energy
Speaker:leaks is often a form of self-soothing.
Speaker:It's a form of escaping painful emotions.
Speaker:It's a form of avoiding deeper pain, specifically for female validation or
Speaker:that sexual novelty, that is a very, very powerful drug in that sense, that
Speaker:can give you a momentarily high and distract you from deeper pain and things
Speaker:that need to be shifted in your life.
Speaker:So what you do is you want to replace habits, otherwise you rely
Speaker:on will strength and will strength, it's not about this kind of idea
Speaker:or you just gotta be stronger, no.
Speaker:Everyone has weak moments.
Speaker:You don't wanna make space for that because then you will feel even
Speaker:more ashamed, oh, I can't do it.
Speaker:I'm so bad.
Speaker:It just leads further into the shame spiral.
Speaker:Replace means every time you want to watch porn, don't go and take
Speaker:a cold shower and do 20 pushups.
Speaker:This is a very rigid overly stoic approach.
Speaker:This doesn't make sexual energy flow in the right way.
Speaker:Instead, it's more kind of a suppression of it.
Speaker:What you can do is go into a self-pleasure practice without stimulant and
Speaker:visualization, and instead, focus on your body, focus on your breath, and for
Speaker:instance, practice semen retention, if that is a practice you want to take on.
Speaker:But if you do so, it's an topic for another podcast, if you do
Speaker:so, practice it in the right way.
Speaker:Don't just do whatever and go against your intuition.
Speaker:Always listen to your body.
Speaker:These things are powerful and they need to be done in the right way.
Speaker:But a self-pleasure retool that is focused on connecting with the body, opening the
Speaker:sacral chakra, allowing the energy to flow into your heart rather than leaking
Speaker:outward and feeding your sexual shadow.
Speaker:The difference is consciousness and presence rather than the absence of
Speaker:consciousness and presence and heart.
Speaker:So find all these ways and try to replace them with something
Speaker:that empowers you, makes you more conscious, and makes you more present.
Speaker:If afterwards you feel more in your power, then it's usually a good
Speaker:sign that you are on the right path.
Speaker:Step number three, own your sexual desires fully.
Speaker:We talked about this in the previous episode.
Speaker:You have to be able to own your sexual desires and be able to express them to
Speaker:your woman, to your wife, to your partner.
Speaker:Because if you're not able to own and express this energy in your relationship,
Speaker:then by nature it will be suppressed, and that suppression will lead,
Speaker:lead you to leak it in other places.
Speaker:Many men are not aware, but they feel deep shame around this.
Speaker:They're not able to channel this into their relationship, their
Speaker:committed relationship, and then it leaks into all kinds of places.
Speaker:Make sure you don't have to look in other places, but instead bring them
Speaker:to your century in a conscious way.
Speaker:Own them so they don't own you.
Speaker:Express them consciously with your beloved or future beloved, rather
Speaker:than leaking them everywhere.
Speaker:This allows for sexual energy to flow freely because that's what sexual
Speaker:energy wants, or that's the most conscious way of relating to it that
Speaker:actually works in the long term.
Speaker:And the final step.
Speaker:to live with deeper meaning, purpose, and devotion.
Speaker:And the way to do this is to ask yourself some very powerful questions.
Speaker:What am I devoted to?
Speaker:What is my highest vision as a man?
Speaker:What legacy do I want to leave the world with?
Speaker:Who do I want to be remembered for?
Speaker:Who do I choose to become and what standard do I hold myself
Speaker:to when no one is watching?
Speaker:And if that's a standard of integrity, containment, power, wow.
Speaker:Then you are on the highest path of self-mastery.
Speaker:Journal on this.
Speaker:Write them down.
Speaker:Feel in to this take time, time spent on this is the best
Speaker:way you can spend your time.
Speaker:The most rewarding way.
Speaker:It's the hard path, but it's the only path.
Speaker:These questions, the answer to these questions and be ruthlessly honest
Speaker:with yourself, they reveal so much about the work that needs to be
Speaker:done and the next steps to take.
Speaker:Sexual energy is not to be suppressed.
Speaker:It is to be contained, owned and directed, consciously devoted to something higher
Speaker:or oriented, to something higher.
Speaker:When you stop leaking it everywhere, you become magnetic
Speaker:because you no longer chase, you start to radiate power as a man.
Speaker:The wondering eye is only a symptom.
Speaker:The cure is more consciousness and presence and holding ourselves
Speaker:to a higher standard of living in truth and integrity with ourselves.
Speaker:When you embody this as a man, a woman who is conscious
Speaker:specifically feels so safe with you.
Speaker:It awakens and cultivates desire and attraction and polarity
Speaker:at the absolute highest level.
Speaker:And life itself will respond to your energy in magnificent
Speaker:and unimaginable ways.
