If someone would approach you right now and asked you to release all your life force energy and in return he’d give you a sum of money doesn’t matter how much..you say…and he hands you that exact amount of money.

How much would he have to pay you?

Alright. Think about that the next time you release. That’s how much you’re losing.

TEACH, THEN MOVE ON. Don’t expect anything in return.

Too many times I see bigger and smaller creators that talk about SR and though a lot of their videos start fairly insightful - filled with the occasional gem- it then suddenly turns into somewhat of a personal rant and the actual message gets diluted and lost in the noise of it all. (I catch myself doing this as well from time to time.)

I think it’s not an easy task balancing the sheer fire our life force energy is while retaining and still being a guiding force and voice for self improvement and I completely get it. Perhaps it’s also just how we as men learned to communicate over the years, which would be a different even deeper topic regarding learnt behavioral patterns from the past, childhood experiences and traumas - so on so forth, you get the idea.

Let’s not fall into the Ego Trap where we actually forget that this practice is to be thought, first and foremost.

Give the people their insights, then leave. If some come for more, fine. Some don’t agree, fine - no need in arguing or trying to convince. I believe all of us have valuable insights which help illuminate the bigger pictures. Some might turn out to be very useful and potent in their positive benefit while others are simply thoughts with a dead end. Nevertheless, both are exceptionally valuable. That’s why it’s important to always approach SR from a point of no preconceived notions.

So teach, share. And when we’re done, we move on. The next is to come to add value in any direction in order to ensure advancement and success on this journey and practice.

Think for ourselves but detaching from the expectations we have towards the contributions we make. For there were those that came before us, and those that’ll come after us, to (re-)discover and hopefully elevate and improve the practice.

Blessings.

Seeing this practice as a game (RPG) is such a power move. You get experience points for retaining and at some point you level up (getting insights, body changes, character changes etc.)

It’ll not look the same for everyone since we can all choose our individual skill tree with abilities tailored to what’s important for each one of us. A relapse certainly won’t take away all the life force energy (Mana) but it’ll definitely stunt your growth.

See this practice as a game. You as your character. Play the game however you like, build your skills and passive abilities. Go on quests and sidequests. Play Solo or Co-op. Free Mode or Competitive. You choose. It’s an experience after all.

Stop being harsh on yourself and actually give yourself the freedom to experiment and see what different builds your avatar can actually hold. A relapse isn’t the end of the world. You still have your save-files.

Temptations might come your way (dungeons and boss level fights) but with enough awareness and preparation you’ve built the perfect loadout to face these challenges when they arise.

Day 180: I face minor opponents from time to time trying to taunt me but it’s no use. Divine Spirit Shield as my passive ability, up at all times deflecting most of those „attacks“. Sword of Salvation (my willpower and determination) in case I get in trouble helps me persevere through the toughest battles. There’s more but by now you get the gist.

Get your stats up, get your healing potions ready, and make sure you cast enough protective spells for when you’re in need of it.
Perhaps we might be fortunate enough to meet a healing priestess, a woman of pure character to assist us on our journey. But nevertheless, prepare.

Figured I might share this out the box thought.

Stay blessed 🦾

For those who are starting out with SR and look for methods and techniques to build longer streaks or preventing wet dreams.

I noticed that whenever I set my intentions to stay on the practice, prior to falling asleep, I feel rejuvenated and confident in me continuing.

I used this method especially during times where I would be scared of having a wet dream (though there's nothing to fear about that) by talking to myself before bed and reassuring that nobody and nothing can feed off my life force without me allowing it.

That thought (if repeated) wi trickle down to your subconscious mind and acts like some sort of barrier for these things actually occurring. This can also be applied to prevent relapsing.

“Your word is your wand.”

Let’s keep that in mind at all times, while on the journey.
I say this because there’s some terminology that I find are making things more difficult than they have to be, especially for those new to the practice.

URGES
“Urges” with its negative connotations of one being sort of helpless at its force, is one of those words that I feel is putting unnecessary pressure where there should be clarity or no pressure at all. Urges are something you fight against. So everytime we refer to a heightened sense of libido/life force energy/ whatever you want to call it - our brain makes the connection that it’s fighting against said thing.
What we should be doing though is referring to the urge as what it is: life force energy in abundance and motion. So much that it actually manifests itself as a physical feeling and/or sensation in our body.

Try calling your urges “rising life force energy” (or choose a terminology you feel like might help you rewiring the feeling into something positive and encouraging once the feeling itself sets in)

FIGHTING LUST
I’ll be direct and this is for those fanatics out here that use religious scriptures to fear monger people. And leading with fear is something that scripture itself views as bad thing. So yea idk.

However: We are not fighting lust. We Integrate our lust.
What sense does it make fighting against parts of yourself (no matter how harmful you might view them as) if these parts are part of you, which is the case, you’d only be fighting yourself which is to your detriment.

Therefore we use SR in order to integrate our sexuality and accept it fully as part of our being so that we won’t even be needing to exercise control over it or even worse, just suppress it - thinking it would disappear for good.

WARRIOR / KING
We all have ourselves pictured as this beast of man or noble monarch in our head, which is a good thing and it should be that way. Holding ourselves to high standards at all times. Let’s just not forget that those two archetypes of men come with something that I find not enough people speak about in regards to SR -> “Compassion”

The warrior fights the fight not because of his strength or killer instinct but because he innerstands what it means to fight and protect something he loves. His love makes him a warrior in the first place.

The King (if righteous) goes through all the ranks in order to be a true king. He innerstands the feelings and thoughts of his closest soldiers, clerics and advisors, down to the simplest farmer and smith in his kingdom, and thus he gains what it takes to truly rule.

The warrior as well as the king both have high levels of compassion and understanding which assist them to play their respective positions to the best of their abilities.

Retain. But retain with compassion towards yourself, first and foremost because this practice is mainly for you. SR is not another trend to “boost masculinity” or come up with new “maxxing” techniques and terminologies that just end up diluting the sub and practice for those that come after us - SR is as simple as it is complex and dangerous if handled incorrectly. It is sacred and therefore needs attention and respect.

Thank you. 🦾

Your body is talking to you and the more time you spend on the practice the more you’ll actually see your sexuality mesh together into your personality instead of being split up from yourself due to PMO and indulgence. It will not oppose your very being but assist you in its way - guiding you to a higher self once integrated healthily.

Let’s listen to the life force energy, let it guide us and reveal parts about ourself we thought were long lost. Transmute the energy to best of our abilities but also -

Sit with it from time to time for a insightful inner conversation.

As I’m tinkering I just feel the need to express just the sheer healing power retaining has on a sexual level. Not only during intercourse but also during conversation.

Being in tune with your own life force energy helps me express my sexuality in a more deeper and rooted sense. I do not speak of perversion though even if so, one would be able to see them for what they are. Namely, forms of expression.

Over 400 days of abstinence now and I clearly see the healing properties my sex has on a woman. From the way I carry myself, through the way I express myself. Without retaining, these energies wouldn’t even surface and see the light of day.

My take: SR doesn’t help you get rid of your sexuality, triggers and emotions in that aspect. It holds up a mirror, for you to actually see it for for what it is and integrate it in a healthy and balanced manner.

​Relapsed willingly around New Year’s Eve this year. My streak prior to that was from October 2024 - New Year’s Eve 2025/26

Feel free to ask anything that’s on your mind. I’ll do my best to give you some advice or insights 🦾

Edit: 6 hours in and I have to give thanks to everyone tuning in so far! 🦾 I really enjoy this gentle nonjudgmental exchange of thoughts, feelings and ideas and definitely taking a lot from it as you hopefully do as well. For those scrolling by, feel free to save this post and return to it sometime in the future. Like so other might see and chime in! 🦾

#RETENTIONFAM

Move slow.

What good does it bring you running around demonizing the very power that brought you to this plane of existence in the first place? The same power that permeates through every fiber of existence itself? Wouldn’t that be an affront to the divine itself?

Don’t be fooled by those that demonize sex, setting it equal with the devil himself and his work of evil. This power is supposed to be felt. It is supposed to be cherished, praised and experienced.

Yet do not move too hastily and end up with a release.
But also let’s not shy away from it’s magnificence, its ability to connect two individuals through space time and make them share a bond through a moment of joy and passion - emotion and desire. IF DONE THE RIGHT WAY!

We do not fight in order to extinguish!
We fight for mastery and self control!

So that this practice may transform us into the formidable men with sexual discipline we always knew we were. So that sex and sexuality gets transformed through us - into a safe haven for a woman. An oasis and place of rest and tranquility. For we have stood our ground and passed the test.

We do not fight against life (force energy)
We fight with it, in order to understand it more and more.
So we’ll be able to protect when the time comes and it’s required of us to do so.

Against the powers of degeneracy, forces of pornography, hookup culture and superficial relationships of the modern world.

Let us retain, my brothers.
Let us rejoice, my brothers.
Let us be transformed, my brothers.

Divided we may fall - yet united we retain.

The longer I’m on the practice the more I seem to unravel thoughts when it comes to being intimate and leaking life force energy.

As sad as it may sound for some, sex might be pleasurable but it was never meant for pleasure. Releasing when trying to create a new life only, as nature intended. Karezza seems to be the only sensible choice in this scenario if wanting to partake in sexual activity.

The orgasm just gives off too much dopamine and vital nutrients and minerals. And that goes for male and female.

After that, I feel like chemistry just declines the more orgasms one experiences with a partner. Kind of like the flame of passion and love, diminishing with each and every release energetically through an orgasm. Abstinence could rekindle the fire again but that’s if both decide to stick to it and support each other.

It’s either Abstinence/Celibacy or Karezza. No release. Sex is a spectrum as well energetically. One can decide to move in the lower frequencies (lustful sex, perversions and fetishes) or higher frequencies (Karezza, abstinence, retaining, tantric sex practices)

PMO shouldn’t even be considered an option at this point. Who doesn’t want to be resonating on a high sexual frequency? And by that I mean just radiating life due to retaining life force itself. Not for female attraction or benefits, simply because it’s a state of existence worth being in.

Between the usual things on a day to day life like working and going after hobbies I often think to myself that the real tests comes in moments of relaxation. Those downtime moments where I’m more receptive for life’s energy (let’s call it “ether” for comprehension purposes)

It’s then where I realize the intricacy of juggling what is being reflected outwards while maintaining a sense of independence and individuality.

How is it that I can literally feel a women’s energy 50 feet away while out on a walk and eye contact gives more information than any 30 minute conversation I’ve had in the past 6 months?

The road to Grand-mastery sure is a long one - yet exciting my brothers. And the most valuable insights - sometimes - can be found right between a thottie’s gaze and a can of soda.

ITS THE WEEKEND!!!

smoking on some Cheddar Chesse, vibing with my life force energy right now so if you’re down for a brotherly chat, feel free to DM 📥

I’ll call this story “The sexual Kung Fu Tug o’ War”
____

She’s feeling my life force energy and reacting accordingly. I can tell by her shit tests - from day to day she just drops a couple, in hopes I fail them.

But no.

She tells me she misses me and wants me with her then she turns sexual the next second trying to tease me.
I don’t react, usually just switch the topic and ask about her day. She asks if we can meet at night but in my mind I can already tell that she’s just trying to orchestrate the perfect setup for me to relapse. She’s laying out the bait, hoping I might be desperate enough to take it, so the trap can go off.

But no.

One minute we go from shooting a couple texts back and forth to me just disappearing for the rest of the day. I got better things to do, even if it’s being by myself enjoying my peace.

Tonight she’s out partying, she already asked if we can see each other afterwards. With that she means she wants to come by. Am I going to let her come over with all sweaty from the club ? The energies of the lustful party people still tied to her own energy signature? I shall not!

My own life force energy is reacting to the temptation, it’s activating. Overcoming it, would be another download and boost in overall power level and stats. A new achievement unlocked. Perhaps a new title…something along the lines of “Thot-Eraser, Warlock of Retention”, perhaps get a new spirit familiar.

The last time this happened I was able to withstand a 12 hour barrage from this thottie. She had a clover tattoo on her butt and I kid you not - Luck was on the line. It was mine or hers. I withheld my seed and was granted with luck. She disappeared shortly after our encounter. It’s like the energy was too strong, she couldn’t exist in the timeline!

On our journey, some temptation may arise at any given time and place. Yet we must always remember to hone our conviction and train our mental faculties to assist us in moments of lustful encounters.

- Sexual Kung Fu Tug o’ War -

You state your opinion and leave it at that.
You are flexible yet centered all the time.
They try to chain you. Impose rules upon you.
Yet you break free every time.
They try to pull you down.
But there’s this fire that won’t go out.
It only strengthens the blaze. Like Oxygen to a flame.

For you have dedicated yourself to the journey.
The retaining of life force energy itself.
You yourself have now turned into a force of nature.

I call this modus oparandi: Unchained x Unbreakable

Welcome.

Quick Mind Dump:

You retain life force energy therefore you emit life itself.
Your reality as a reflection of self therefore reflects life back at you.

I know a lot of guys on this journey really tend to overthink (female) attraction while on the practice. But if you think about it it’s not really that deep.

My advice: focus on the journey and sit with what and how you feel, think and wish to express yourself. Everything else comes automatically.

I feel like life is just reacting to me at this point not the other way around. And one thing I love is actually being able to recognize other people’s energy signature so to speak.
___
I might have the opportunity to get intimate sometime this week with someone I feel rather comfortable sharing the experience with but the thought alone comes with its pros and cons. One aspect would be that I feel kind of nervous it’s not going to be as fulfilling since I personally want kids but know she is not ready. Another point would be just being sexually involved after over a year of not having it. Curious about my thoughts and emotions.

Feeling the need to express myself through sex but still aware enough to stay on the journey of retention.
Looking forward to trying out Karezza since I’ve been wanting to do that for more than 2 years now and lowkey been preparing myself mentally up until now.
