Let Go & Let the Fantasies Begin!

Let’s play a game.

Take a deep breath. Think for a moment of all your responsibilities – that zoom call, those unfolded clothes, the coordinating of drop-offs and pick-ups and of course, the stress of paying bills – and let them go. For these few minutes, you are free from all of your responsibilities. No one needs anything from you.

For this moment as well, let’s say you are free from your relationships. If you’re married, you’re not for this experiment. You have no responsibilities, no connections. The world is your oyster.

And the last piece – you have time, money and that pesky coronavirus pandemic has mysteriously disappeared (if only!).

Enjoy this moment, this freedom, and now let the real fun begin: If you could have any sort of sexual experience or encounter, free from your real life, and without any consequences, what would it be? Would it be a steamy encounter with a stranger in an exotic location? Would it be something with a group? An experience totally new, or would you find yourself back with that one lover who was wrong in many, many ways but oh so right in bed?

What would you want to taste, smell, feel? Is there massage oil, soft music and a light breeze? Or is there throbbing club music and hands fumbling beneath clothes? Are you calling the shots, or are they? Are there restraints, toys and dirty talk? Or something slower, softer, more emotional?

The role of fantasy in our lives

Take the time you deserve to indulge in these fantasies. Fantasy is a key part of life and a healthy part of human sexuality. These activities are good for your brain and creative release (and can help you reach physical release too!) A lot of people fantasize about things that will never come true, and even things they don’t really want in real life. And that’s ok. There’s no need to feel shame around these ideas and thoughts.

It’s ok to let your creativity run free.  Research has found sexual fantasy to be a nearly universal activity for women and for men. We fantasize to plan future encounters, to escape reality, to explore taboos, to reduce anxiety and of course, to become sexually aroused. We fantasize because we’re human and we can.

Here at OhCleo, we want to help you daydream. We want to know what you think about, what turns you on and what makes you click. If you want to share (anonymously, of course, we won’t publish your name or use your email address for any purpose!) your fantasy, you can email us at oh@ohcleo.com. Maybe the next audio you hear will speak to that deep desire of yours!
