Seminars for singles and couples. Tantra In few short paragraphs, I would like to share with you an overview of what the Tantric Energy Work experience may include, and what we will work toward together.
While intense sexual energy of the Sacral Chakra and the compassionate loving of the Heart Chakra is part of Tantra, the main goal is the inner path work of intimacy with self. As intimacy with self develops so does intimacy with the world, as a whole. I hope you'll understand and internalize the deeper goals of Tantra and allow me to help guide you to a profound awakening of your body, mind and spirit. During Tantric Energy sessions, an intention will be set for the goals the client/student wants to develop, create, discover or journey into. These may include unrealized dreams or aspirations or delving into emotional behavioral patterns. This is achieved through conversation to ascertain where the breakthrough needs to be targeted or the area in which awareness needs to be brought to facilitate healing and release. Tantric energy work is in a class of its own, combined with therapeutic techniques, breathing exercises, meditations and acupressure points to release body blockages. The opening and charging of the Chakras to raise the Shiva (male) energy and Shakti (female) energy, will bring alignment and balance back into the physical and subtle bodies. Tantra is about body awareness; self-intimacy that in turn is a more intimate nature with all and the removal of blockages through breakthrough/break down of old patterns. These blockages can be from past lives, from in the womb, from present day problems/traumas and stress, and even from worries about future problems.
Through this system of healing you become aware of holding patterns and illness causing emotional blockages. These holding patterns/blockages can be caused from anger, fear, stress, abuse, trauma, loss, guilt, abandonment, and many other reasons.
Once these areas are discovered then the client is guided through the release of the physically held blockages and a greater awareness is brought from the body wisdom, thus bringing the mind, body and spirit back into harmony.
These blockages, if not released, can prevent us from living a full and happy life, having a lack of intimacy in our lives; can contribute to relationship issues, and disease caused by the closing off of the Kundalini (Chi) energy flow through our bodies.
Ritual work, and home practice will be taught to the client/student to aid them in raising and sustaining the sexual energy and integrating it with the spiritual energy, necessary for healing. Males will be taught how to separate orgasm from ejaculation and how to release emotional blockages. Females will be taught about their Sacred Spot and releasing emotional blockages. All clients will learn how to cultivate their Heart energy center and sacred sexual center (Sacral Chakra), to improve their health, to generate energetic connectedness of the self, to honor their self-expression and to bring joy and love back into their lives.
Many times in Western culture Tantra is a misunderstood philosophy. The majority of people mistake this philosophy/practice as only focusing on sex. This is very far from the truth of the spiritual philosophy of Tantra yoga. If I may take you on a brief history, Tantra was the first documented (written) philosophy, approximately 5,000 years ago, from that came the alchemy of yoga. Following that came the religions of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jeudo-Christianity. The Tantric inner path work is about incorporating the spiritual, body energy system (Chakras) and the mundane body itself into an awareness of behavioral, emotional patterns and the evolving towards enlightenment of letting go of the expectations that cause suffering. Yes, our sexuality is a very important part of Tantric work since it is very powerful creative source. Joining this energy source with compassionate Heart energy we are able to a sacred loving place for our sexuality and ourselves. Our sexuality is an endowment from our Creator that is meant to beautiful and open. To those who are misinformed, the freedom that Tantrika's accept with their own sexuality and that of others, can lead those who are sexually repressed to the belief that those who practice Tantra are sexually licentious. Tantra is a way of life and being which transforms all facets of everyday living into a spiritual experience, thus leading to joy, bliss and serenity. It teaches that all that you have is right NOW and that you live in the present, without expectations.
