bfish0 Posted March 7, 2017 Hello everyone!I'm an Irani-born, Italian raised, Bengladeshi lived, brown guy who is currently living in australia as an international student. Spirituality and the inner worlds have always been something of interest to me personally, and I really like Stuart Wilde's thought on daoism.Recently I've taken up NoFap (Quitting pornography and masturbation for a while) and soon discovere the benefits of semen retention. I used to edge a lot before, thinking I would get the benefits of semen retention, but in my experience stopping porn etc. all together changed my life. However sometimes it's just hard to avoid wet dreams, and you feel like there is a lot of sexual build up.So what I realized is that I need to do something about it. To cultivate my life nad manifest what I need. Use this energy to good use. I was thinking of taking up Zhan zhuang for a practice, but I cannot afford or get a teacher at the moment. So I ended up here. Any advice or tips would be highly appreciated! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted March 7, 2017 Hello bfish0, and welcome. Your membership is approved and we're happy you found your way to us. We look forward to accompanying you on some of the way that you still have to go. Please take the time to read the two posts pinned at the top of this Welcome page and take a look at the forum terms and rules. This covers all you need to know when getting started. For the first week you will be restricted to ten posts per day but after that you can post as much as you like. Also, until you’ve posted fifteen times in the forums, you’ll be a “Junior Bum” with somewhat restricted access and will be allowed only two private messages per day. Good luck in your pursuits and best wishes to you, Marblehead and the TDB team Hi bfish, For built up sexual energy I normally recommend finding a willing woman but I'm sure others will offer you alternate choices. You are welcome to jump right in ongoing discussions, revive an older thread, start a new thread of your own, or start a discussion in the "Newcomer Corner" sub-forms to expand on your introduction or ask general questions to help you get started. May you enjoy your time here. Marblehead 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cold Posted March 7, 2017 Welcome, and for what its worth I second Mh's suggestion of finding a willing partner! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelerner Posted March 7, 2017 Zhan Zhuang is a great practice. Do a search here and you'll find a couple of threads on it and those will lead you to books, websites and youtube videos that will give you more information. In essence, its easy. Still its good to have someone with experience check your posture live every now and then. Subtle things like tilting the pelvis an inch can make a difference. I've found people in arts like yoga and even Aikido may have good input on when you're standing with proper alignment. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spotless Posted March 7, 2017 Try to look at the energies you are dealing with as not "other" than you - see the parts that have difficulty with these energies as " other" than you. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bfish0 Posted March 8, 2017 Thank you all for all the responses. Unfortunately a willing woman is sort of out of my reach atm. Plus my priorities are more focused on myself, building my life get on my own two feet. I will look around the forum and thank you very much for all the support and encouragement. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rakiel Posted March 10, 2017 Welcome. NoFap has been a game-changer for me too. I'm on day 116. Find a good system that puts all that energy to use. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
