Tantra - What is it and why should it interest me?

		Tantra is an ancient spiritual tradition with a very relevant application to people in today's world. It's not just "normal sex" that goes on for hours... a popular misconception! It's much more... The word tantra literally means "expansion tool". It's a path whose route is not in suppressing sexual desire or in stiflement of one's enjoyment of life's pleasures, but in the opposite - in harnessing sexual energy and enjoying each of life's moment-to-moment pleasures, abandoning hindrances to the free flow of energy within ourselves and between us and our partners. Everyone possesses energy stored in their bodies. Tantra helps you to get in touch with this energy, as well as learn ways to encourage it's vitality and renewal. It's through the practice of tantra with a partner rather than "head knowledge" and reading about the subject that you will, by experience come to realise this in your own life. Reading about something can only take you so far. There comes a stage when you have to "taste and see" so to speak. In tantra, sexual union is a symbol of the unity of all things by the joining of male and female energies. Both partners are honoured and respected as unique human beings, and the female, because her energy is considered particularly potent is given special honour by the male.

What can Tantra do for me?

Practice of tantra can help you:

• Bring depth and richness to a sexual union. Sex becomes more than a quick shag or even a longer version! :-)
• Enable men to become multi-orgasmic (you probably already know that women are!)
• Help women of all shapes and sizes to become more confident about their sexuality, if they weren't already.
• Teach you to move sexual energy around your body for utilisation *and enjoyment!* of it elsewhere. Many people have never experienced a whole-body orgasm and don't realise that they don't always have to be just genitally focussed events!
• Become more harmonious in your sexual relationships and life in general. As you become more aware of the energy connections between two people in sexual union, you frequently become more intuitive as a person. This can be especially useful for people who normally see themselves as very "logical". Logic is fine and useful, but sometimes in life it can be helpful to develop intuition and open up other aspects of what may be dormant qualities in some people, and tantra is a good way to open up this area of life.
• Take the pressure off "performance" in sex. You're less focussed on giving your partner orgasms and generally become much more relaxed about sex, enjoying each bliss moment by moment!
