People often masturbate to relieve anxiety as a way of moving energy in their bodies. They don't know it, but that's what they're doing.

Anxiety is the result over "over-thinking" - being too much up in the head/brain area. That brings too much energy into the head area - and we - in a very real way - begin to short-circuit. That creates tension and dis-ease in the body. In some cases people will look at pornography simply because it's an aid for lowering the energy out of their head and down into the lower part of their bodies - to the sexual center.

This becomes a vicious cycle. It's also often why so many people are constantly seeking out sex - and in places, and with people, they really shouldn't be involved with.

God created sex. And sexual power is some very potent energy. But when we jump in the driver's seat of a machine (our own body-mind) that we do not understand, we wind up driving into the trees, running off the road, and not getting where we want to go.

Sex occurs on a continuum of levels - depending on the focus of, and reason behind, the sexual act. On lower levels - the attention and energy is centered on the genitals - the act is only focused on the physical level. These are the levels where people often feel ashamed and guilty afterwards - even with masturbation.

On higher levels the attention is on the heart and on sacredness. These are the levels where the focus is on love, and sharing, and an exchange and union of energy together. It is Adam and Eve before the fall into matter. On an energy level, over a period of time, Adam become too much Adam, and Eve becomes too much Eve. In the sex act, they unite and share and blend energies and become one flesh again.

The highest levels of attention and energy are God-centered - where the attention and energy expand to the entire universe - and man is, again, one with God. This is Adam as he was (IS, really, if we want to get technical) during the initial spiritual-blueprint creation when he was/is Adam Kadmon.
