Tantra, Touch & Intimacy Workshops.

Tantra

  • Ask 100 people what Tantra is and you’ll get 100 different answers because Tantra is so broad. It is not about sex or spiritual sexuality, though it is a very small piece of it. Tantra is spirituality, in every form, which can include the mind, body, and soul.

    Tantra includes sex, love, social practices, diet and all the things that make up the human condition.

    Think of Tantra as a means of freedom in a set of spiritual practices that is unique to each individual.

    Tantra’s goal is to balance the masculine and feminine energy within all of us, individually, between partners and people in general.

Touch

  • The skin is the largest organ in the human body. Our touch, or tactile sense, responds to anything that touches the skin.

    The importance of touch is so great that it is the first sense to develop during gestation.

    It communicates care, affection, and love, as well as concern.

    Touching psychologically enhances the quality of one’s life by feeling cared about, and expressing care for another.

    Touch also signals the body to produce more of the feel-good hormone oxytocin, which can counter the effects of the stress hormone cortisol. Touch also slows down the nervous system, which lowers heart, rate, blood pressure and calms the body down.

Intimacy

  • The concept of intimacy involves a mutually consensual relationship where two individuals reciprocate intimate moments and feelings of trust, emotional and physical closeness towards each other.

    There are about 12 types of intimacy, including intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and the most commonly known — physical/sexual intimacy.

    Intimacy involves vulnerability, which is difficult for most men. These workshops teach practical ways to include intimacy in your day-to-day and romantic relationships.

    These blend elements of masculine and feminine energy (not male or female) from Tantra; the art and science of touch; as well as being vulnerable without feeling weak.
