Tantra: The Gift of Being, Bliss, and Conscious Loving

by

“In your body, there exists a subtle current of electricity, very subtle. But the subtler it is, the deeper it goes. It is not very visible. Scientists say that all the electricity that is in your body, if put together, can be used to light a five–candle bulb. It is not much. Quantitatively it is not much, quantitatively the atom is not much, but qualitatively… If it explodes, it has tremendous energy in it.” 

–Osho

 

Tantra is one of the oldest historically documented forms of Spiritual Human Sexual Expression. Known to some as sacred sexuality, Tantra is (among many definitions) considered an art of erotic healing; to weave together the human senses, an expression of the mind and body, noticing the vibrating, beating, electric energy that brings awareness into every moment.

Tantric ritual seeks to access the supra-mundane through the mundane to sublimate reality and the Tantric practitioner aims to use Prana (universal energy) to attain goals which may be spiritual, material or both. My practices promote using self-evolution and self-involution to achieve Satchidananda, or “Being-Consciousness-Bliss”. Let us be Conscious. Let us heal our wounds and find our inner Being. Let us enjoy our Blissful erotic nature. Let us learn to love ourselves and each other…

All practices are safe, strictly confidential, and extremely liberating! My goal for you is to allow yourself to experience the balance and safety that you create for your own beautiful body while riding the waves of excitement, and to find out how to enjoy your body the way it was intended!

Open your mind, open your heart, and enjoy Tantra!

Namaste and blessings,

“Our biological body itself is a form of hardware that needs reprogramming through tantra like a new spiritual software which can release or unblock its potential.” 

–Slavoj Zizek, Living in the End Times 

“Tantra is the science of transforming ordinary lovers into soul mates. And that is the grandeur of Tantra. It can transform the whole earth; it can transform each couple into soul mates.” –Osho 

“Your task is not to seek for love but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” –Rumi 

“This Tantra vision is one of the greatest visions ever dreamed by man: a religion without the priest, a religion without the temple, a religion without the organization; a religion which does not destroy the individual but respects individuality tremendously, a religion which trusts in the ordinary man and woman. And this trust goes very deep. Tantra trusts in your body; no other religion trusts in your body. And when religions don’t trust in your body, they create a split between you and your body. They make you enemies of your bodies, they start destroying the wisdom of the body” –Osho

“The voice of the sea speaks to the soul. The touch of the sea is sensuous, enfolding the body in its soft, close embrace.” 

–Kate Chopin

Change our relationship to Sex

by

My sessions focus on sexual healing, releasing, opening and clearing energy blockages stemming from past trauma, emotional wounds, judgments, shame, powerlessness, and messages prompting low self-esteem. These blocks take the form of “hot spots” of tension stored in the body at various locations, often in the first or second Chakra area.

Both men and women carry these blockages and both benefit from being consciously touched with loving, accepting, nurturing energy.

By being present and providing loving touch, an opportunity is presented for the stored energy to shift, move, open, and release as a result of the intention for healing and integration held by the client. I gently steward our session and provide a safe and sacred container for such releases to occur.

So all these health and wellness places around town state they create a space for over all health and wellbeing… They have on site chiropractors, natropaths, beauty therapists, Chinese herbalists, nutrition specialists and so on yet from my perspective its not entirely true that they promote “overall health and well being”.

Where are the sexologists, sex therapists, sex educators, sex coaches, sexological body workers, tantra teachers etc within these spaces

Sexuality is one of the most important aspects of “overall health” yet it is clearly ignored and pushed into the shadows. My god i feel frustrated at this reality!

TO CHANGE THE WORLD WE NEED TO CHANGE OUR RELATIONSHIP TO SEX!!!

When society including “conscious holistic health care” continues to treat sexuality as something outside of the spectrum of health and happiness, then society is ignoring such an important aspect of our physical and mental well being! we all need to wake up and push for a major paradigm shift.

How uncomfortable does addressing authentic sex and intimacy make you? If it makes you uncomfortable or that you wouldn’t even consider sex and pleasure therapy as a part of a health center then you too also have some sexual shame that could be released from the professionals i mentioned above.

I believe its time for all these holistic health centers to make a change and show their clients what real overall health and well being looks like.

The Five Love Languages

by

Improve Your Relationship

The ground breaking work of Gary Chapman has influenced many in understanding and expressing their love for one another.

I will be compiling below information I have gathered from various sources to help you discover simple and practical ways to communicate your love to your partner and have it received with the best results for your relationship.

Most of us grow up learning the language of our parents, which becomes our native tongue. Later we may learn additional languages, but usually with much more effort. In the area of love, it is similar. Your emotional love language and that of your partner may be as different as French from English – no matter how hard you try to express love in English, if your partner only understands French, you’ll never understand how to love each other.

Usually couples have different primary love languages. We tend to speak our primary love language and become confused when our partner doesn’t understand what we’re communicating. Once you identify and learn to speak your beloved’s primary love language, you’ll have discovered the key to a long-lasting, loving relationship.

First Determine Your Own Love Language

Discover your own love language by asking yourself these questions:

~ How do I express love to others?
~ What do I complain about the most?
~ What do I request most often?

Speaking in your spouse’s love language probably won’t be natural for you. Dr. Chapman says, “We’re not talking comfort. We’re talking love. Love is something we do for someone else. So often couples love one another but they aren’t connecting. They are sincere, but sincerity isn’t enough.” When we make the effort to speak in our partner’s language, they hear your love and appreciate the relationship more. Speaking your partner’s language is very likely the single most important thing you can do to deepen, strengthen and make your relationship more intimate and satisfying.

Words of Affirmation

When “words of affirmation” is your love language, you thrive when receiving verbal appreciation. Verbal compliments or words of appreciation are powerful communicators of love for you.

All of us have areas in which we feel insecure. At times, wee lack confidence, which often holds us back from realizing and manifesting our potential in life. A little encouragement goes a long way and can help you cross mountains.

By sharing our needs with a kind request, we’re giving guidance and offering our partner the opportunity to enhance the quality of our life.

If “words of appreciation” is your partner’s love language: Set a goal to give your beloved a different compliment each day for a month.

Quality Time

When “quality time” is your primary love language, then receiving someone’s undivided attention will go straight to your heart.

Having your partner being right here, right now with you. Sharing your thoughts and feelings while maintaining eye contact. Simply being together for some time, focusing on one another.

If this is your partner’s love language: Ask your partner for a list of four activities that he’d enjoy doing with you. Make plans to do one of them each week for the next month.

Gifts

Gifts don’t have to be expensive to send a powerful message of love, especially when “gifts” is your primary love language.

The perfect gift or gesture shows that you are known, you are cared for, and you are special.

Gifts come in all sizes, shapes and colors. Handmade or store bought the gesture of the gift is a symbol of your love.

If this is your partner’s love language: Keep a “gift idea” notebook. Every time you hear your partner say, “I really like that,” write it down. Select gifts you feel comfortable purchasing, making or finding, and don’t wait for a special occasion. Becoming a proficient gift giver is an easy language to learn.

Acts of Service

When “acts of service” is your primary love language, anything that your partner does to ease the burden of your responsibilities will speak volumes.

Discovering how you can best do something for your spouse will require time and creativity.

These acts of service, like vacuuming, hanging a bird feeder, planting a garden, etc., need to be done with joy in order to be perceived as a gift of love.

If this is your partner’s love language: What one act of service has your beloved asked of you consistently? This is your clue to serve as a lover.

Physical Touch

Holding hands, kissing, hugging and making love are all essential to you if that’s your primary love language, helping you feel secure in your partner’s love.

If this is your partner’s love language: While eating together let your knee or foot drift over and touch your partner. Stroke your beloved’s back, hold hands, or make sure you kiss your partner any time you leave the house.

Fading Hormonal Rush and Empty Love Tanks

After the first or second year of a committed relationship, when the initial “tingle” is starting to fade, many couples find that their “love tanks” are empty.

Dr. Chapman recommends that you have a “Tank Check” 3 nights a week for 3 weeks.
Ask one another “How is your love tank tonight?” If, on a scale from zero to ten, it is less than 10, then ask “What can I do to help fill it?” Then do it to the best of your ability.

What Tantra Is and Is Not

by

There is a heated conversation about tantra going on in the press, partly due to the unfolding drama within the Anusara community, and partly in response to the recent article by William J. Broad in the New York Times in which he makes the dubious claim that yoga began as a sex cult.

Yoga, tantric or otherwise, is a set of practices that help us expand our consciousness to connect with the universal intelligence and then to bring that experience into life so that we live in the world in a liberated state. While all yoga draws on the same sources, each school or lineage has its own set of practices and interpretations handed down from teacher to student in a very specific way, making it almost impossible for the modern yogi or scholar to tweeze out all of the influences let alone the specific provenance of the various practices. Some contemporary schools have been interested in creating yoga as an institution that can be branded, replicated globally, and sold for profit. But yoga, the real living practice, has always been more like an organism that grows organically and can only survive if it is grounded in the kind of relationship between teacher and student that fosters the direct transmission of what we call the shakti, or living energy, of this ancient wisdom tradition.

A Holistic Perspective on Sexuality

Using our sexuality as a vehicle for personal growth is a foreign concept to many. It is an art form that was once known to every indigenous culture on earth, but has sadly been displaced, lost, or stolen. Over time, humans have forgotten that our bodies are a divine gift that offers unlimited capacity for pleasure and healing. Our sexual expression represents one of the greatest mysteries known to humans ~ life itself. [Read more…] about Introduction Tantra Vancouver Canada
