Lee Harrington joins us for a discussion about sacred kink on episode 108 of American Sex Podcast. If sacred sexuality, ritual, and sex magic aren’t your cup of tea, hold up. Lee explains how the altered states of consciousness and profound emotional shifts experienced during adult play are universal. He teaches us to translate language about these experiences to fit our own personal belief systems. We discuss viewing the sacred through the lens of technology, how to pervert spirituality & identify when that’s appropriate, the practical reality of sex magic we all can benefit from, reconciling your religious beliefs with your kinky desires, feminism and BDSM, combating the “one twue way” thinking in both kink and organized religion, and so much more. Lee makes spiritual concepts mind-blowingly accessible even to those that regard themselves as more science-minded. This episode is not to be missed!
