事实:一项研究表明，性交过程中有节奏的刺激会改变大脑活动，并可以产生恍惚状态。一个人必须积极地投入到性爱中去体验这个结果。
反思:你的性关系仅仅是原始的吗？或者他们是在自然界中存在和精神上的？如果达到意识的改变状态是你想要的体验，那么遵循下面的一些建议。联系是关键。
When it comes to sex and sexual pleasure,it seems like there is always something new to be learned.The realm of sex has perplexed humans for many decades,probably due to the growing evidence of a deeper connection being made with ourselves and our partner.
当涉及到性和性快感时，似乎总有一些新的东西需要学习。性的领域困扰了人类几十年，可能是因为越来越多的证据表明，我们和我们的伴侣之间存在着更深层次的联系。
The desire for a deeper connection provides further proof to our obsession to know more about how the functions of sex affect our connectedness with self,and others.
对更深层次联系的渴望进一步证明了我们痴迷于了解性的功能如何影响我们与自我和他人的联系。
What Happened:Neuroscientist Adam Safron of Northwestern University explains,"sex is a source of pleasurable sensations and emotional connection,but beyond that,it's actually an altered state of consciousness."
经过:西北大学的神经科学家 Adam Safron 解释说:"性是快感和情感联系的来源，但除此之外，它实际上是一种意识的改变状态。"
In an article published in Socioaffective Neuroscience&Psychology,Victoria Klimaj and Adam Safron delve into unlocking the mystery of the orgasm."The conditions shaping sexual climax may be particularly complex in humans,whose sexual behaviour is characterized by cultural shaping,abstract goals,and frequent non-reproductive motivations."
在《社会情感神经科学与心理学》上发表的一篇文章中，Victoria Klimaj 和 Adam Safron 深入研究了解开性高潮的秘密。"对于人类来说，形成性高潮的条件可能特别复杂，因为人类的性行为是拥有属性文化的形成、抽象的目标和频繁的非生殖动机。"
They concluded their research with the help of a number of scientists who are experts in the study of the orgasm.These contributors are evolutionary psychologists,animal behaviour experts,fMRI researchers,and investigators specializing in the analysis of large-scale surveys.
他们在许多研究性高潮的专家的帮助下完成了他们的研究。这些贡献者包括进化心理学家、动物行为专家、功能磁共振成像研究人员，以及专门研究大规模调查分析的调查人员。
Dr.Safron has learned that a rhythmic stimulation alters brain activity.When we are sexually stimulated,our neurons focus in a particular way that it's hypnotizing,and we block out everything we are usually conscious of like noises,feelings and smells,and concentrate intensely on sensation alone.
萨弗隆博士已经知道有节奏的刺激会改变大脑活动。当我们受到性刺激时，我们的神经元会以一种催眠的特殊方式集中注意力，我们会屏蔽一切我们通常意识到的东西，比如噪音、感觉和气味，并强烈地专注于感觉。
This level of concentration cannot be achieved through any other natural stimulation.Our self-awareness is essentially gone in that moment.
这种程度的专注是不能通过任何其他自然的刺激达到的，我们的自我意识在那一刻基本上消失了。
"Sex is a source of pleasurable sensations and emotional connection,but beyond that,it's actually an altered state of consciousness,"Dr.Safron explains.
"性是快感和情感联系的来源，但除此之外，它实际上是一种意识状态的改变，"Safron 博士解释说。
Dr.Safron investigated this trance by creating a europhenomenological model that displayed which rhythmic sexual activity likely influences brain rhythms.The model showed that our neurons can be focused by stimulating particular nerves in a particular way at a particular speed.
萨弗隆博士通过创建一个神经现象学模型来研究这种恍惚状态，该模型显示有节奏的性活动可能影响大脑节奏。该模型表明，我们的神经元可以通过以特定的速度以特定的方式刺激特定的神经来集中注意力。
When they begin to synchronize their activity,neural entrainment is achieved and if stimulation proceeds for a longer length of time,the synchronization spreads throughout the brain enabling us to become more focused than ever.
当他们开始同步他们的活动时，神经调节就达到了，如果刺激持续更长的时间，同步就会扩散到整个大脑，使我们比以往更加专注。
"Before this paper,we knew what lit up in the brain when people had orgasms,and we knew a lot about the hormonal and neurochemical factors in non-human animals,but we didn't really know why sex and orgasm feel the way they do,"Dr.Safron said.
"在这篇论文发表之前，我们知道人们有性高潮时大脑中发生了什么，我们也知道很多关于非人类动物的荷尔蒙和神经化学因素，但我们真的不知道为什么性和性高潮会有这种感觉，"萨弗隆博士说。
Why Rhythm Plays A Crucial Role:The study revealed a common theme:sexual climax,seizures,music,and dance all flood the brain's sensory channels with rhythmic inputs.Dr.Safron believes that because sexual activity is so similar to music and dance,the rhythm-keeping ability may serve as a test of fitness for potential mates.
为什么节奏起着至关重要的作用:这项研究揭示了一个共同的主题:性高潮、癫痫发作、音乐和舞蹈都以有节奏的输入充斥着大脑的感觉通道。萨弗隆博士认为，因为性活动与音乐和舞蹈如此相似，所以保持节奏的能力可以作为潜在伴侣的体能测试。
"Synchronization is important for signal propagation in the brain,because neurons are more likely to fire if they are stimulated multiple times within a narrow window of time,"says Dr.Safron.
"同步对于信号在大脑中的传播非常重要，因为如果神经元在一个狭窄的时间窗内受到多次刺激，它们更容易被激活，"萨弗隆博士说。
This led Dr.Safron to hypothesize that"rhythmic entrainment is the primary mechanism by which orgasmic thresholds are surpassed."
这使得 Safron 博士假设"有节奏的运动是超越高潮阈值的主要机制。"
"The idea that sexual experiences can be like trance states is in some ways ancient.Turns out this idea is supported by modern understandings of neuroscience,"says Dr.Safron.
"在某种程度上，性体验可以像催眠状态一样的观点是很古老的。事实证明，这一观点得到了神经科学现代理解的支持。
This constant rhythmic stimulation is very similar to the practices preached by 46-year-old Nicole Daedone of OM or Orgasmic Meditation.The technique is a sequenced practice in which one partner gently strokes the other partner's clitoris for 15 minutes.The result is said to be therapeutic,rather than sexual.The"stroking"allegedly activates the limbic system and releases a flood of oxytocin.
这种持续的有节奏的刺激与46岁的妮可·戴东在 OM 或高潮冥想中所宣讲的做法非常相似。这项技术是一项有序的练习，其中一方温柔地抚摸另一方的阴蒂15分钟。结果据说是治疗性的，而不是性的。据说这种"抚摸"激活了大脑边缘系统，释放出大量的催产素。
This whole practice reiterates the idea that in order to fully achieve orgasm(or anything else of substance in life)you must actively engage in being present and release the pressure we allow society to instil within us.When we surrender to the universe and in this instance,our feeling,we enter into a world of bountiful possibility.
这整个实践重申了这样一个观念:为了完全达到性高潮(或者生活中其他任何物质)，你必须积极地投入到当下，释放我们允许社会在我们身上灌输的压力。当我们屈服于宇宙，在这种情况下，我们的感觉，我们进入了一个丰富的可能性的世界。
