let’s start with the basics… what is tantra?
Tantra is a spiritual and philosophical tradition that originated in ancient India. It counts with a wide range of beliefs, practices, and rituals aimed at personal and spiritual development, emphasizing the unity of the physical and spiritual realms.
At its core, Tantra seeks to integrate and harmonize various aspects of life, including sexuality, emotions, and the divine. It recognizes that the physical body and sensual experiences can be pathways to spiritual awakening and transcendence. However, it's important to note that Tantra is not solely focused on sexuality, as many may assume.
Tantric practices practices aim to expand consciousness, cultivate inner energy (known as Kundalini in some traditions), and achieve a state of oneness with the universe.
In Tantra, there is often a strong emphasis on the worship of the divine feminine, known as Shakti or the Goddess, alongside the divine masculine, known as Shiva. This recognition of polarities and balance between feminine and masculine energies is essential.
Tantra has different schools and lineages, each with its own specific practices, beliefs, and rituals. I believe its important for everyone to cultivate their own truth of what tantra means to you. Not everything will resonate with you. I invite you to listen to teachers, while cultivating your own identity of this practice. It does not look the same for everyone.
Overall, Tantra is a multifaceted spiritual path that seeks to integrate various aspects of life, aiming to bring about personal transformation, spiritual realization, and a deep connection with the divine.
The Tantra I resonate the most with is one of expansiveness. One that doesnt limit, all the contrary. It’s a lifestyle that invites you to get to know yourself and allow all of yourself to be seen and honored.
I strongly belief we all have divinity inside of us. (Yes, i do believe there is a God) but I know I come from that God meaning I have goddess energy in me. I’m holy and I am sacred. I not only belief I do, but everyone else too.
Everything holy and sacred is beautiful. I believe there is beauty in absolutely everything. My tantric path has been one of awakening and releasing shame and doctrines that do not serve me.
As mentioned before, tantra is not about sexuality but it does see the divine in that too because it sees the divine in everything. Most religions and societal practices shame our sexuality. Tantra is so powerful because it doesn’t hide the sensual nature, it doesn’t push individuals to hide their sexual energy, all the contrary.
I believe sexual energy is sacred. It is life force. It is linked to creativity, to intuition and to being fully alive.
When I talk about sexual energy I am not referring to sexual acts. Anything & everything can have sexual energy. I know this might sound a bit confusing, but trust me .. there is pleasure everywhere. Pleasure in listening to waves at the beach, pleasure when laughing with friends, pleasure when kissing your beloved, pleasure when soaking in a warm tub.. pleasure is linked to this sexual energy.
The more we allow ourselves to experience pleasure in our every day life the more our sexual energy starts building up.
now that we have that covered.. What is a Tantra Massage ?
All tantra massages can look a bit different. The lineage and method I was taught has a mix of tantric lineage along with ayurvedic therapies modalities.
It is a full body massage. A real full body.
Yes, your genitals (last time you will see me use this word, as I find it way too clinical) are part of your body. There’s no logical reason why they should be avoided at all times when working with the energetic body.
Like our shoulders, lower back and any other body part, our sacred sex zones also build up tension and need releases.
No, this is not a “happy ending” session. Not saying there’s anything wrong about that. Tantra Massages are not aimed to end in any kind of orgasms.
It may happen to some females, and it is a safe space for that, but the techniques involved are known as “yoni mapping”. This allows for the receiver to be fully present while getting to know their own sacred yoni. This technique allows for the “sponge” to liberate any stuck energy.
In tantra it is said yonis are sponges that tend to absorb a lot of energy which in our society might look like past traumas stuck. This explains why so much women are not able to receive pleasure, they are full of stuck energy. For some, this might even by expressed in pain during sexual acts or all the contrary; complete disconnection from your sex. Feeling fully numb.
In this safe space, we will accept anything that comes up and honor it. You will be able to experience compassion towards yourself and allow your body to release anything it no longer serves you.
Through this full body massage, marma points and energy is moved towards the crown of the head, stimulating all areas in order to allow for the receiver to move its energy up.
Like I said, all massages can look a bit different. For some it might be a wonderful extremely relaxing and pleasurable experience, for others it might look like a lot of emotions coming up & being released.
I, as your practitioner, will create a safe container and will be guiding you through anything that comes up using breathing techniques along side my intuition and knowing.
