5 Methods tp Achieve Intense Trantric Intimacy

Intense intimacy is one of the goals of Tantric sex. LJ Vanier reveals five methods to achieve it.

Our culture seems to use sex simply as a way to release tension. A goal oriented, five to ten minute, hot and sweaty work out, to get that release and then it’s over. A lot of energy spent. A lot more wasted.

When a man or woman feels flooded with sexual energy the basic primal instinct is to release it. This because we all have the biological wiring to procreate. But sex can and should be spiritual. A melding of masculine and feminine energy, merging and transcending the pair into higher level of consciousness. Read more

Can You Really Be in Love with Two People at Once?

Lauren Del Turco explores whether it's really possible to be in love with two people at once - and what to do if you are.

The Great Gatsby's Tom Buchanan, Jay Gatsby, and Daisy. Carrie Bradshaw, Big, and Aidan (still not sure who to root for in that one). Tons of books and movies feature love triangles for a reason (besides just the drama): Lots of people can relate to having feelings for two different people at the same time. But is it actually possible to love two people at once—or are the tortured souls who think they do just kidding themselves?

The answer is a resounding yup, says Ramani Durvasula, Ph.D., clinical psychologist and a professor of psychology at UCLA. “We assume love comes in one flavor, but it’s really much more Baskin Robbins than that.” In other words, chocolate chip mint and strawberry are different, but they’re both damn good. If only love were as easy as ice cream.

Tantric Sex Is the Opposite of Porn

tantra teacher Katrina Bos explains how Tantric sex is the opposite of porn.

What if studying tantra could heal our addiction to Porn? What if tapping into our natural abilities to experience ecstasy changes everything?

I was really nervous when I first realized that I wanted to teach Tantra. What would people think? Would they be offended? Talking about sex is such a no-no. I live in a very small conservative community, how was this going to work? Read more

Orgasmic Meditation for Couples

Can you meditate your way to a better orgasm?

When it comes to orgasms, does it matter whether it’s a solo orgasm through masturbation or a partnered orgasm through coupled sexual activity? 

According to Nicole Daedone, author of Slow Sex: The Art and Craft of the Female Orgasm, the key to enhancing your orgasms is through a partnered activity called orgasmic meditation, or OMing.

The practice of orgasmic meditating

OMing is the use of mindfulness meditation with a focus on finger to genital contact. The act of “OM” involves a 15-minute session where a woman experiences simple meditative stroking of the upper left quadrant of the clitoris by her partner. OMing is practiced in pairs, with the partner stroking the genitals of the other, and both focusing their attention on the sensation with the stated goal of developing connection and emotional resonance.

Finding the Ideal Lover

If you haven't yet found your ideal lover, you may not be searching in the right way.

Love does not belong to anybody, it is divine. It comes from God and it is for God only, manifested in the Created Universe.

One of the most important aspects, if we want to find our ideal lover, the one to complete us and to make our heart happy and fulfilled, is the complete transformation of the negative mind patterns that we maintain.

All those who complain about not finding the right lover have a negative idea in their subconscious mind regarding the couple relationship. In most situations, it is a prior traumatizing experience. Look into yourself and realize that if you lack self-confidence, if you think you do not deserve it, that there is so much in you to transform, that now you have a difficult period, etc., this is the projection you emit mentally and you will receive an answer to this projection.

Tantric Sex Positions for Intimacy and Ecstasy

Tantra teacher Lokita Carter answers a reader's questions about Tantric sex positions: "What are they? How are they different from the usual sex positions? Can you explain how to do some?"

Q: I keep hearing about tantric sex positions and how sensational they are. What are they? How are they different from the usual sex positions? Can you explain how to do some? (My partner and I are not limber enough to do those Kama Sutra pretzel-y ones.) John, Princeton, NJ

A: Dear John,
You don’t have to be a yogi in order to experience sensa­tional tantric sex! Any body posture that feels good and com­fortable to both of you and gets your sexual energy flowing is a tantric sex position. One of the ideas in tantric sex is “to stay re­laxed in high states of arousal”. How can you be relaxed when you are uncomfortable?

The Keys to Sensational Tantric Sex
Tantric sex is all about intention, attitude and being present. In Tantra, all techniques lead us to the point where our own personal spring merges with the ocean of great bliss, and where we relax into being rather than doing. At that point we become one with our partner, and the Divine Mystery, and there is true communion. Read more
