Heart Chakra ceremonies and Heart Cocoa times in Boston, MA

Heart Chakra ceremonies and Heart Cocoa times in Boston, MA

Well it’s time for me to take a tour of Boston, Ma because I am long long overdue for a Tantra regrouping not just for myself but to get a bit of love and positive energy going and nurture my soul.
I just returned to the city of Chicago in late November and I established my tantra yoga practice in the West Loop making myself available for workshop opportunities, private reiki healings, one on one tantra yoga and aromatherapy healings. I chose to stay grounded here for the sake of my dog and I wanted her to feel safe here and not kennel her away.

Now I am ready for a bit of play time and I am preparing myself to set up sacred journeys, sacred sensual healing touch and couples massage training in Boston and Cambridge Massachusetts. I love being by the Ocean and I love working with all the wonderful and exciting people that travel through Boston on their daily ritual to go to work. It’s good to have passion in life and it’s good to meet new people so I try and travel to a brand new city each month but this time I have been landlocked in the city of Chicago determined to meet with my old students from the past and develop new relationships with visitors to the city of Chicago.
I do not work with everyone who contacts me but I make myself available to a handful of wonderful new students and repeat guests who really treasure the opportunity to learn tantra yoga and or be touched by a Goddess of tantra yoga.
I feel it’s very important for you to feel safe and comfortable with me and if I feel that you are too nervous to meet with me I gracefully decide that the time is not meant for you to try tantra with me but the time might be perfect for you to reassess and decide what you truly want from life and whether or not you can handle the energies of a true tantra kundalini awakening.
Tantra yoga should be peaceful not jarring to your energies. You can’t rush progess you just simply breathe deeply during a tantra session with the intentions of receiving free, vital energies or Chi life force from the Universe. It’s best to trust your tantra goddess completely. If you are nervous you block the natural interaction and flow and you are not allowing your body to receive the touch.
When you are calm and centered and nurtured energies just flow better during your tantra ceremony and your chakras naturally realign by themselves just like a natural spinal adjustment.
When you have had a good tantra ceremony you can see colors more vibrantly and your outlook on life is more positive and flowering for you.
During all of my longer tantra ceremonies which last between two hours to a full day there is going to be a lot of positive flow between both of us because a strong sense of bonding and trust will be developing.

Here is an example of what a full day with me might be like. I tend to love spontaneity more so than a planned out day that does not allow for creativity. We might start our day together inside and breathe together just stare into our eyes and connect without saying a word. Sometimes it’s best not to say anything and sometimes complete stillness and quietness will allow for complete healing to take place in your body.
We then might take a food break and explore outside of our sacred space because sometimes you just need to get some fresh air and a fresh perspective just to give yourself a chance to regroup and relax.
Breathing, tantra massage and connection exercises expend quite a bit of focus so it’s good to just unwind over a small salad or nibble on a bit of fruit.
I am going to be makings myself available to newbies, experienced tantra enthusiasts, same sex couples, traditional marriage partners and of course anyone coming by themselves for the first time with an open outlook and an open heart ready to receive this unique Tantra Kundalini activation ceremony.
so please have an open mind and an open heart
if you wish try my newest and latest ceremony the Heart chakra ceremony where the focus is opening the sacred space of your heart with intention, breath, reiki and loving care. Let me be your Tantra muse either in Chicago or Boston. I will travel anywhere with sponsorship.
My visiting dates for Boston will be this coming Sunday June 8 until June 15th so please try to empty your calendar and meet me in Boston next week!

Tantra Mantra Puja Celebration and Liberation of your Soul ✿

Tantra Mantra Puja Celebration and Liberation of your Soul ✿

We are spiritual beings living in a physical world and trapped in a physical body. We want to soar and not have the limitations of our physical “cage”! We want to go without thirst, without cravings, without hunger, without lust and without pain or self doubt. Our natural state is “bliss”. We are born unto bliss and bliss is our birth rite. Tantra is the study of bliss and is the key to our inner contentment and our ability to see the unseen. When we feel trapped we feel powerless but when we learn how to travel outside of our bodies into the realm of the astral in the form of mindful meditation we grow “wings”.
Tantra involves a connection to Source and we expand and travel outside of our bodies therefore liberating our spirit body from our denser physical body. The word tantra is compose of two words in Sanskrit. Tanoti means quite literally to stretch out or expand and the second word Trayate means to free up or liberate. We use Mantras, yantras, meditation, breathing, pujas and pranayama during a tantra healing. If you have the time to schedule a 2 to 3 hour ceremony more than likely you will have a true taste of the yantras the symbolism behind each Chakra that we work on opening up together.
Tantra is the practice of keeping your energy high and maintaining your sexual energy for creative purposes and rejuvenation. Tantra teaches you the practice of mindfulness and your study of tantra as a form of meditation will also enhance your ability to appreciate all your mundane activities until they become infused with the extraordinary. You will take small bites of your food and take in each morsel. You will find new ways to create sacred space in your own home environment because you will become extra sensitive and you will require more art and more colors as you free up your inner clutter and give yourself the permission to explore the newness of everything around you.

Tantra seeks to unite all of us and create a sense of oneness rather than isolation. The act of partnering up with your lover or your tantra teacher creates an act of give and take and ebb and flow. As you connect with your partner you might even find your breathing patterns are in synchronicity and connecting becomes like second nature to you. Your bodies relax together and it’s as if you can feel the same pain or the same thirst. During a tantra healing you must remember to breathe consciously into your own heart chakra so you feel energized because you will be sharing your own heart energy with your partner and you will in essence be feeding each other pranic food.
How can you not evolve and expand under such lovely circumstances? We all go through phases in life. Sometimes we find ourselves busy in activity so we can hardly make space to learn anything new. At other times we might go through periods of worry or a lack of abundance. During these times we have more time to ponder different aspects of our personality and to decide what it is that really drives our passions. During these quieter times we have to reinvent ourselves and we can take this time to acquire new skills or change our location and move to a different city. Tantra will change you. Tantra will assist you in your growth no matter how painful or scary it is to change you can use tantra yoga to help you balance your relationship with yourself and give you the strength to set boundaries with others so you can express your needs and be “seen”.

Tantra Butterfly Muse

Let me be your Tantra Guide and Muse (your city or Mine) ❀✿

ImageDo you have a special desire to learn tantra the right way and in an intimate gathering such as your home environment?  I am available for very small, intimate retreats.  I suggest we meet briefly for coffee and make special plans for you and your closest friends.  I am a skilled tantra teacher very open to meeting with your and a small group of your friends in your home where you feel safest.  We can explore the basics of breathing exercises together and learning how to touch with intention and authenticity.  There are many ways to touch your lover or close friend.  When you incorporate proper breathing techniques and reiki your partner will feel the difference whether your intention is to incite desire or send someone some tender and healing vibes.

I will take my time retraining you and giving you the basic steps you can use to infuse your touch with heat and tenderness.  My focus is to allow each of you to become a live demonstration and each one of you will also have the chance to assist me in a six handed massage so that by the end of the workshop you have a chance to be receiver of a true tantra massage ceremony and a Tantra God or Goddess– a shaman that helps facilitate healing.

I am available for small tantra retreats and immersions here in Chicago and your home city.

 

My favorite place to retreat is my chair and my writing table ✮☯

so you want to know the secret to creating opportunities?  It’s not hard it is simple.  You create opportunity by learning to say yes

and not saying no.  You decide that when you elect to try something new if it seems like a bad idea you forge ahead and you try to the best of your ability to keep your mind unpolluted and see for yourself what the activity brings.  Just imagine if you feel just a tinge of nervousness and you don’t create time or space to make something occur.  Now that is an adventure you lost and you can’t retrieve it.  I keep my heart open.  I give people choices because everyone is allowed time to make up their minds to figure out what it is exactly they are seeking.

I am sure it’s not easy to say yes to meeting a complete stranger for the first time and try out for yourself what a tantra massage is like.  But if you let your nervousness get in the way or if you let your “expectations” of what a tantra healers must look like you might miss what it is you were yearning to experience.  It’s best not to judge people based on your fears but that is something that commonly happens.  Once someone schedule a session with me but he was very cold to me and at the end of the session I had asked him why he was behaving so cautiously and he explained it really had nothing at all to do with me but in a way I looked exactly like his first girlfriend who had rejected him brutally and parted ways with him without healing his pain of abandonment.  I tried my best to give this man a wonderful session but I can only perform to the best of my abilities as a healer when I am given complete trust.

Once in a while I get a weird gut intuition that a session will either be super powerfully infused with laughter and energy or I receive the strange feeling of a last minute cancellation based on an accident or a delay or cold feet from my new guest.  I try my best not to take these signs personally but being human and having tender feelings I have to wonder how much of this was fate or how much of these strange events were based on my new guest’s unfounded fears.  When you fear something you block love.  When you block love you block your ability to perceive change and heal and grow. 

If all you do is contemplate trying new experiences but you never make them happen you are dreaming away your life.  When you connect with your healer don’t second guess your judgements, your sanity or yourself.  You picked someone because they are a reflection of you.  Your mirror is nothing for you to fear.  If there are subtle blocks going on in your life your teacher or your mirror is going to reflect all those doubts and fears and energies right back at you and you have the unique ability to heal your wounds and resolve the subtle blocks by facing your prejudices and your fears head on.

I can’t stress this enough—do not turn away from the opportunity to rebuild your inner ego by having new experiences even if they are from people you do not typically meet daily during your work environment or within your inner circle of friends. 

Sometimes my favorite place to retreat to is my chair and my writing desk.  I find sanity here.  I can collect my thoughts and pause and reflect and try to make sense of people and sometimes I don’t understand why someone does not try to reschedule after a last minute set back but I feel it’s not within my power to judge or doubt I just have to allow chances to unfold and be here open and capable of being judgement free.  The only time I decide to turn anyone away is when there is a long term repetitive cycle of missed appointments or an established lack of trust either from my end or my new guests point of view.  Where there is a lack of trust there is no ability for the body to heal itself of older and more wasteful energies.

We are here to heal each other.  We are here to support each other.  We are here to be in our power and also be in our truths.  But if you are here in a stuck place the only one responsible for creating opportunities is your own inner and higher being.  Your higher being knows what is best for your evolution so go with your gut intuition first and carry out your original intentions so you can get to the other side of any hurdle.Image

Jungle Flowers in the West Loop yes We have flowers in the West Loop

Jungle Flowers in the West Loop yes We have flowers in the West Loop

“I am not the first person you loved. You are not the first person I looked at with a mouthful of forevers.
We have both known loss like the sharp edges of a knife. We have both lived with lips more scar tissue than skin.
Our love came unannounced in the middle of the night. Our love came when we’d given up on asking love to come.
I think that has to be part of its miracle. This is how we heal. I will kiss you like forgiveness.

You will hold me like I’m hope.
Our arms will bandage and we will press promises between us like flowers in a book.
I will write sonnets to the salt of sweat on your skin. I will write novels to the scar of your nose.
I will write a dictionary of all the words I have used trying to describe the way it feels to have finally,
finally found you. And I will not be afraid of your scars.
I know sometimes it’s still hard to let me see you in all your cracked perfection,
but please know: whether it’s the days you burn more brilliant than the sun or the nights you collapse into my
lap your body broken into a thousand questions, you are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.
I will love you when you are a still day. I will love you when you are a hurricane.”

~ Clementine von Radics, “Mouthful of Forever”

If you wish to receive my best work I need something special of you ~your trust and your respect ❀

So it’s the end of a very hectic and long aggravating work day for you and all you want to do is relax in your hotel space and not have to worry about leaving your comfortable room or having to flag a taxi in the rain or the sleet or the snow.  You just crave touch and you randomly find my website on your lap top or you ipad or your phone.  You really really need a healing NOW — not later, not tomorrow not the weekend but right NOW. There is only one major flaw in this missing recipe and special ingredient…you have made no prior plans or attempts to reach out to me during your hectic day not even a warning call to advise me that you have a deep desire for a special out call so I might not be in the right frame of mind to hustle over to your room at your convenience.

I am not trying to be rude I am simply going to give you an inside view into my world.  First of all I love my career and I would never be in this field unless I really loved people. Innately I am a people pleaser and nothing makes me feel better than knowing I have healed some new guests simply craving and desirous of healing touch.

Please understand though that you will receive the very best I have to offer if you follow some very simple and basic guidelines.

If you know for sure you are going to be in my home city then give me a full day’s notice or at least call me very early in the day and tell me what time you expect me to go to your hotel.  My preference will always be to offer sacred space from my own temple space because I don’t have to worry about finding a taxi at the last minute and not forgetting to bring oils with me.  If you truly can not take the time to visit me here then I need a few hours notice from you so I can make sure I am near your hotel at least 45 minutes prior to our session.  You will have to understand that it is rude of you not to include my taxi cab fare because I am going out of my way to make sure you are well rested in your hotel space at a special time and I should not have to incur extra traveling expenses to make sure you do not have to leave the comfort of your room.

Please know your hotel space is within your control so you can have a few candles lit with aromatherapy or some freshly cut flowers in a tiny bud vase to make the setting more soothing for our ceremony.  Typically I might have some alter candles and incense burning in him sacred space so if you wish to create a loving setting have a bit of food for us to enjoy.  It does not have to be elaborate but create a home like setting so we both feel at home and peaceful together.  Music is very essential to a good tantra healing and I will always bring special music with me but if you know your hotel space does not have a stereo system you might want to borrow something from the hotel space so we can have a relaxing ambiance to enjoy together.

I really need a couple of hours notice for out call ceremonies.  I would be less than inclined to hop in a cab at eleven o’clock in the evening without prior warning and without a bit of cab fare to take care of my expenses.  If I am given ample notice or better yet if you can provide a driver for me at a specific time I can assure you I will arrive promptly at your hotel ready and willing to give you all the nurturing and pampering and unconditional love you deserve.

I create sacred space 24/7 in my home meaning I have soft Indian music playing here to create a higher vibration at all times.  I love to light incense here and light special resins on charcoal brickettes so that my home is always uplifting and sweet smelling.  I have candles lit and the temperature is always warm so you need not worry about drafts in my temple space.  Please remember a hotel space can sometimes be a bit drafty and a hotel space has certain rigid rules about candles being burned and incense being lit.  If you have even one candle burning sometimes the hotel staff will warn you about the fire alarm going off in your room.  We can always make any space sacred with creativity and I certainly do not mind creating a space where you feel safe and loved but you must respect my boundaries as a healer and give me enough time to get to you without me feeling rushed or pressed for time.  Include a tip that will cover my cab fare and a simple gift of flowers and you will receive much more than you anticipated.  You will receive the very best I have to offer when you are prepared and respectful of my time.

Here is a brief recap:

if you require an out call tantra healing give me 2 hours notice

* have light food and beverages available for us

*have my ride waiting for me at a specific time or include an extra $50 for my time

*keep me informed through out the day if there are any changes in your schedule

*partial payment in advance will assure me you are serious and intent on keeping our appointment at your space

*Never call me after 10pm at the very last minute for an out call I will not be at my freshest and I won’t accept

*please use your real name and never an alias.  I feel a deeper sense of trust when you use your real name

*I can not offer discounts when you expect me to do an out call but I can always offer sliding fees when you come to me

Courtesy and respect gives you best of my best and I want to give you the type of session you feel you deserve so please honor my simple boundaries so I can impress you with my skills!

How to process energy after your first tantra healing

All energy healings deal with balance of the chakras and learning to make progress not only on  a psychic level but a spiritual

level.  It is not enough to walk away from a tantra healing or a reiki session and keep up with your old negative habits like a

lack of exercise or eating too much sugar.  As you learn to evolve psychically your body naturally wishes to let go of these old patterns which opens up the potential to keep getting more fit on a physical level.

More and more I am seeing evidence of people who want to give up certain food groups because they have noticed their stomach reacts differently to the old food choices.  For instance I recently decided to give up my addiction to sugars  and breads and pastas because it felt as if my stomach was burning on fire after my bread and sugar consumption.  I avoided all meats, dairy, sugars and breads since this past Easter and I feel so much better and lighter.  My body is preparing me for a major shift and the planet is receiving new energies so our bodies are going to need to be prepared to receive the new energy so we can be better channels and better able to evolve.

Who wants to go to bed feeling achy inside?  Why continue on the same path if you feel so good after your first reiki healing or tantra healing.  You want to maintain that level of lightness and euphoria for as long as possible by practicing the breathing exercises daily on your own or sharing the exercises with a close friend or partner. 

Now that the sun is out take advantage of these warmer days and go outside to enjoy the light without guilt.  Take your work with you and do your work outside for a change.  Be active, listen to your body because now that you tasted what it is like to feel complete bliss it’s wise to keep up the maintenance on your own and to schedule small sessions in intervals maybe once every three to four weeks. 

There is nothing like body wisdom to teach you what you really need and not what you crave.  What ever you decide to do immediately after any kind of tantra or reiki session you must drink a full gallon of water to flush out any toxins your body was holding onto.  Let that old toxicity go.  Feel what it’s like to have a pure, healthy and light physical body and if you notice certain food groups are creating pain or a heaviness in your solar plexus then make a note to yourself to substitute your old foods that were more acidic with a more alkaline diet.  Alkaline foods are fresh fruit and vegetables.  See how easy that is for you to remember?  Meats are highly acidic and so are certain types of sugary deserts especially ice cream.  At least figure out how your body reacts to certain types of foods and help your body heal by picking those foods that do not cause your digestive tract any stresses or strains.

It’s good to feel vital and infused with energy.  All good reiki sessions and tantra massage sessions will make you feel lighter and better able to concentrate for longer periods of time.  Keep up your new level of happiness don’t let yourself go back to square one.  Now it’s up to you go enjoy reiki circles so you can receive energy and practice with others.

I am available to support you in your ongoing process and progress. Don’t be discouraged or hard on yourself.  Sometimes it takes tiny bites of pure energy work to make a huge difference in your outlook.

Reiki and Tantra Yoga are closely aligned during breakthrough energetic healings

For those of you who have tried Reiki healing at least once in your life you might have instantly felt yourself feeling lighter, less worried and less concerned about any immediate worries you might have been carrying before your session.

Reiki sessions tend to make you feel more secure, more balanced, less panic stricken and calmer in general.  A good reiki healing might in fact speed up any recovery process in your body whether it be valid, physical injuries or trauma or emotional depression or angst.

Reiki has proven to be a very valid tool that we can use to help aide our physical bodies in any healing process because the reiki opens up all your chakra bodies and unifies your entire body so you feel safe inside.  You might have rested better than you have ever rested before or if you were tired and fatigued maybe the opposite occurred and you felt so energetic and hopeful you went home feeling a rush of energy and decided to keep active the whole night without sleep.

Reiki tends to be that energetic teddy bear that instantly brings you a sense of deep peacefulness so you feel less afraid and less alone.   Tantra yoga concentrates on using your sexual energy as a healing tonic, a vital and potent life force that can heal any trauma or wound so you can move forward with grace in your life instead of constantly looking back at your mistakes.

Any Good Tantra instructor will teach you the basics of learning how to be at peace with yourself and being in tune with your body as you breathe and focus on each of your chakra systems.  We do not selectively leave out any chakra and so in this aspect a tantra healing is more encompassing and holistic in nature than your traditional reiki healing because you are instructed on how to clench your sexual muscles with the breath and you are instructed to hold back on the pleasure and include your entire body in these waves of full body pleasure and orgasms.

You learn how to become orgasmic through the symbiosis of breath, intention, focus, visualization and muscle contraction. 

To me I refuse to simply offer tantra yoga without reiki because reiki is a gift of pure energy and warmth we can use to help create a feeling of trust and safety in your body.  I am not giving you my energy but I become a pure receptacle of healing by opening up my crown chakra and using my body as a vessel for you to receive and become cognizant of the pranic energy that comes from Source.  Universal energy or Chi is free for all of us to use so I love to infuse all my tantra yoga ceremonies with pure Usui Reiki so you can feel a better connection to your physical body and your spirit body.

The goal of tantra yoga essentially is to empower you and teach you to be more intuitive, more graceful in your own body and to learn how to create safe boundaries for yourself when you partner up with someone sexually.  I become your partner and your close friend who helps guide you and make you aware of your own power and sexual capacity.

Tantra is beautiful.  In essence tantra is the organic connection you feel with yourself and Source.  You become more open to receiving love as you become a more skilled receiver of touch.Image

Heart Chakra awakening Ceremony for those who need Love❤♡

Welcome to my newest ceremony. I am pleased to announce my excitement to awaken your dormant heart. It has been a harsh and long winter here in the city of Chicago and I moved back to my home town because despite the cold weather here I grew homesick for clients I missed and I just missed walking through my old neighborhoods and enjoying the food from own home town.

The Heart Chakra or Anahata Chakra in (Sanskrit) is one of the most important chakras in our auric body. The meaning of Anahata is Un struck and she plays a melodic chord which is the complete opposite sound of chaos…she is peaceful and in her more relaxed and open state she sounds out a strong message of unconditional love and complete acceptance.

When we have an imbalance in our heart chakra due to physical diseases, disappointment in love or stress our heart chakra closes up on us and we find it hard to breathe properly. You might notice phantom aches or chronic pain when you try and breathe fully into your diaphragm. You might suffer from panic attacks which are caused from the constriction of your diaphragm from not breathing fully into your lungs.

If you find yourself slumping over constantly and caving in your chest that is a strong indication that you are protecting your heart chakra from being exposed to hurt but as you are protecting your heart center you are also unwittingly closing off your opportunities and making it less likely for you to heal or open up to a new love interest.

Yes there are times when you should protect your heart. You learn signals from others and you can create situations where you no longer allow just anyone to enter your sacred heart space. We need to understand however that we are beings who need and crave and deserve love. It’s natural for the Heart center to constantly open and close so that you can open up to positive energies that enhance your ability to heal and grow as a creative individual and you also shut off any unwelcoming or harsher energy that is not for your higher good.

If you suffer from an imbalance of the Anahata you will KNOW. You might experience tightness of breath, chronic and annoying pain in our rib cage or your upper back and a feeling of uneasiness like a panic attack.

During the Heart chakra ceremony I will guide you into taking deeper breaths and help you honor and heal old wounds and negative patterning or negative self messages that no longer serve you on your journey of self healing.

All my ceremonies are shared journeys that WE co create to establish a safe haven of your self healing. Boundaries are learned and you are always encouraged to express your fears and talk out any negative memories that became STUCK in your physical and Auric bodies.

We will engage in Reiki, pranayama breathing, tapping exercises, the conscious cuddle and intuitive hand placements to awaken and heal any rawness that prevents you from fully feeling joy and warmth in your heart center.

If you suffer from heart disease I would never advise you to give up any of your traditional medications but I might suggest you continue with our ceremonies to instill a sense of self awareness and mindfulness in all that you do so this becomes a daily practice you can use in addition to your traditional medicine. The Heart is a powerful muscle and she can heal with a little bit of positive love and coaxing from you.
I will teach you how to administer self reiki on yourself and how to create a space of growth and self healing after you have left my healing space.
