Tantra is a form of self care ❤ & self pampering

Many years ago before 2013 I used to travel from city to city and I lived in Atlanta, Georgia for two years but traveled to different cities at least every three weeks.

Back then certain websites existed such as Tantra.com, the Goddess Temple website and I used to advertise on Eros Guide before being banned because I used the word “yoni” in the body of my advertisement.

Anyway I digress and if you don’t mind following me along here I typically write in stream of consciousness style and meander quite a bit; but eventually I promise to “get to the point”.

When I lived in Atlanta a really sweet retired teacher by the name if Gregory A. reached out to me via email. He was fascinated by my website and he had always wanted to try a tantra ceremony. He had been hiring high class prostitutes typically from ads on the Eros guide and even though he enjoyed himself he didn’t find these experiences very enriching.

Since I lived in Atlanta and he lived in Maryland with his ailing mother he decided to sponsor me and hire me for a full day of tantra and we would meet up in Washington DC. He sent me enough money for my traveling expenses and picked me up at the airport super excited to meet me. It’s like we had always been good friends.

After our fun weekend together he and I would meet up each time I’d travel to Washington DC or Manhattan, New York. We enjoyed eachother’s company, go out quite a bit for sushi and co create sacred space together. Mostly we just enjoyed exploring the city and engaging in mutual massage.

Gregory was a very thoughtful man and a giver. He genuinely adored women and even bought thoughtful gifts for me, his two daughters, his mother and his close female friends.

He did however feel regretful that he was no longer married and more than anything he wanted to remarry so he had proposed to his former girlfriend many times but she had a drinking problem and when she went to AA meetings she ended up meeting her true soul mate and so Gregory felt a bit discarded and resentful of her new boyfriend because he had always been there for her not only as a lover but as a dear friend.

Gregory would vent to me and share all these stories including the experience he had hiring Hayley, a young a beautiful call girl he developed a fondness for. This girl would advertise on backpacks and Gregory enjoyed her companionship so much he’d take her to extremely expensive restaurants and he even bought her a beautiful charm necklace. I think Gregory loved to romanticize that he would “rescue” her and marry her; but that never happened. She would ask him for money for her bills and she genuinely enjoyed his attentiveness and generosity but if you ask me she only saw him as a “sugar daddy” someone who would take her out and pay part of her rent and utility bills in exchange for her company and her beauty.

I always looked forward to meeting up with Gregory. He was extremely intelligent, great to talk to and very attentive and reassuring when you needed a sounding board and good advice. He had many interesting stories to tell and I thought of him as a great friend not just a client who needed my services. We always kept in touch even when i stopped traveling and when I had moved back to Chicago he sent me lovely gifts for the holidays just to make sure I knew that someone cared about me. He often mentioned he might visit me in Chicago because he loved baseball and the Chicago Cubs but sadly this never happened.

We met up again one last time in New York and we spent a few hours together enjoying tantra massage and a light lunch and then I never saw him again. He had asked me to marry him a few times but I rarely fall in love and I’d smile at him and politely decline awkwardly.

The only bad habit Gregory had was chain smoking. When he booked me for full day ceremonies or a weekend he constantly had to excuse himself to step outside and enjoy a smoke. He already had a fast metabolism and he was a very high energy kind of person who hated staying still so the smoking helped him focus and soothe his nerves.

We eventually lost touch with eachother sadly and he was mainly focused on his two daughters, taking care of his mother and traveling on cruises. He kept active with regards to animal sanctuaries and focusing on his youngest daughter when she needed to move back in with him full time during her advanced level college courses.

I tried calling him but he had changed his number and he stopped being active on Facebook. I was a bit concerned and hurt but didn’t want to bother him on messenger. It was only two months ago I noticed his two daughters and friends honoring his memory on his Facebook page. I then realized he must have passed away during covid, most likely because of his non stop smoking habit but I can’t be certain.

Anyway what I’m trying to say is Gregory was the primary caretaker of his older mother. There were times he’d share the fact that she was so sick he was almost certain she would die within months and when he inherits her home he would sell it and buy an apartment in Manhattan. He even suggested that he and I should share an apartment in New York together and split the costs but I couldn’t see that happening. Instead I always told him that when his mother dies he should keep her home and enjoy it so that his children will always have a place to live.

Instead Gregory died and his mother who is in her 90’s is still alive and currently being taken care of by her two granddaughters because I noticed his children posting her photo on his wall and assuring Gregory that they are taking care of Nonna.

I don’t know if Gregory ever truly loved himself to be ok with being alone and single. I’m not sure why he lost the will to live or perhaps he didn’t notice the toll that his life was taking on his body and his spirit. All I can say is you have to alright with just being by yourself and you should always make time for self care ❤ because if you are always focused on making others happy you will eventually run low yourself.

I hope that by reading this short story you don’t forget to take care of yourself first even if you prefer focusing all your attention on others. If your family relies on you heavily please don’t forget to take care of your needs even it it’s just a hot bath you draw for yourself at the end of the day.

If you find yourself physically drained or low on energy please reach out to me. I’m available for the Holidays and I never take a day off work because tantra brings me so much joy and personal fulfillment.

Today is Father’s Day 🧸

Today is Father’s Day but I don’t miss my biological father who physically kicked my mother in the stomach when she was carrying me in her womb. In fact I still don’t respect my own mother who is also deceased because what kind of mother remains married to a man who would attempt to threaten the life of her unborn child?

I’m posting this information not to garner any sympathy but to help people understand that not all of us here had desirable childhoods or pleasant memories of our parents during these traditional Hallmark card American created Holidays.

I’m not even a tad bit sentimental or regretful today because both my parents failed me and they were in a sick codependent relationship with one another and when my mother found out my father was schizophrenic she was even considering an abortion and deeply worried that I myself would develop schizophrenia like my father since it is after all hereditary.

Well my father had a complete nervous meltdown when my mother became pregnant and she told me he had kicked her hard then spent several months in treatment in the hospital for his mental condition.

Medication and talk therapy can only do so much for anyone suffering from delusions and I knew my father became a completely different person when he got angry with me or my mother. You could literally see his dark, black pupils become so enlarged his brown eyes became pitch black and he no longer looked human.

My father was very abusive to me…I have good memories of him when he showed genuine compassion towards me but his cruelty outweighed anything good he showed me and If I could go back in time as a young child I’d love to relive all those scary instances but ideally I would have left my home physically and spent more time outdoors or at the library and escaped his blind rages.

Not every father is ideal for the position of parenting so only a handful of lucky people out there had good, healthy relationships with their mothers and fathers. At the very least some of us as children were blessed to have a good role model either in the form of an uncle, a teacher or a close family friend.

I myself spent a good part of my childhood and puberty hiding in fear from my father who was not only diagnosed with schizophrenia but truly possessed by demonic entities. I’d love to understand what on earth I must have done in a previous incarnation to deserve such a frightening childhood but I know it shaped my character and made me a more sensitive child more empathetic than my peers.

I remember also being bullied by children my own age from five years old to age 16. At times I’d defend myself and the children would eventually learn to steer clear of me if I decided to defend myself properly. Most of the time I didn’t do anything to defend myself and I’d just cry quietly to myself at home. If my mother found out I had been bullied she usually didn’t have sympathy for me at all; in fact she genuinely became angry at me and wanted to know how I could let any of these peers take advantage of me or beat me up.

I learned to avoid and isolate myself from children in my school and at times I’d fight back when enough was enough and I had had my fill. I certainly didn’t mind fighting back and I at times learned how to adequately defend myself from my father’s tantrums and misdirected anger.

I never celebrate Father’s Day here on my Facebook wall but I know it’s a special day for at least a few blessed people out there in social media who knew what it felt like to be deeply loved unconditionally and respected by their fathers.

I leave this here on my wall not to garner sympathy but to help others understand that we don’t all celebrate this Holiday. Some of us don’t to this day understand why we ended up with the parents we had. I know a psychic reader I hired last year acknowledged to me what I had already known. My father was indeed a Channel for Spirits…all Spirits even Malevolent Spirits. He couldn’t control what he received so the doctor’s misdiagnosed his clairvoyance and prescribed him with pills and other medications that no doubt made his visions that much worse and skewed his reality further.

My parents were VESSELS …they were important in that they brought me here. I’m alive and I myself am clairvoyant and clairsentient and clairaudient. I know how to ground my own energies and I’ve never allowed any entity to ” take over the steering wheel ”

I can filter what it is I wish to receive and I function well on my own independently . I truly do not desire nor crave anyone else to “compliment” or “complete” me. I’ve had so many things taken from me but I’ve endured it and I’m content. I would never refuse genuine help if it were offered up to me but I learned the hard way that help is rarely offered unless there are “strings” attached.

My upbringing made me more sensitive and strong. I learned not to expect too much from anyone and I learned as I got into adulthood that people you date can abandon you when you need them the most especially if you let your guard down and bared your true feelings to them.

Anyone can disappoint you at anytime. The key to being truly happy is self reliance, self respect and unconditional self love. You must be there for yourself and learn to hold your own hand during the darkness.

By the way I do not give readings to anyone.  I sometimes might give my clients advice and pick up information they may need to hear from their Spirit Guides or “higher power “; but I don’t want to “probe” anyone I don’t know personally and interfere in their journey.

My psychic abilities have lead me to understand that I should place complete faith in myself first because of my own bodily signals or slight panic attacks.  I learned from firsthand experience that if I do not honor my own intuition I will be misled or reap the consequences of being completely taken advantage of by people who don’t have my best interests in mind.

I have experienced what it feels like numerous times not to be listened to and not to be taken seriously especially by people who were in a position to guide me or offer me help.

I suggest that if any of you reading my blog get a nagging gut feeling within you that some path isn’t right for you that you honor yourself first and pay close attention to your body’s signals.  If you feel nauseous or sweaty or truly ill before a decision you’ve made you may need to change your intended course of action and back away and try another alternative plan.

No one will be able to predict an outcome for you because we always have free will and the ability to change our minds frequently.  In honor of Father’s Day seek out answers within you more often.  Never question your own intuition and never put all your faith in one entity or one set way of doing something.

In honor of Father’s day learn to create sacred space within yourself first. When you wake up each day keep track of your thoughts.  Are you sending comforting thoughts to yourself and your physical body or are you silently criticising yourself ?

You alone carry all the answers within you and you alone intuitively understand how and where to begin the process and long journey of self healing and renewal.
