Tantra and Traveling and Escaping out of yourself ♬♫♪

Diana retro harlow red couchHello everyone! Well since I left the city of Chicago October 1st I have been offering tantra in New York city, Boston, Cambridge Ma, and NOW I am in Indianapolis, Indiana on my way to head over to New Orleans, Louisiana. Life is about Journeying and having fun! How on earth will we ever meet new people unless we venture out of our comfort zones anyway?
I have been setting up sacred space, introducing new guests to tantra and enjoying new sights with my pets since October 1st. I am not a fan of winter so it was my personal decision to choose New Orleans, Louisiana to spend the winter season and hopefully get reintroduced to the culture there since I love historical architecture and the slower paced lifestyle of the South in general.
Boston was wonderful. I met so many kind and creative people in Boston and I do not regret venturing out of Chicago for these experiences. I do get scared when I leave Chicago since Chicago is what I KNOW and I have lived most of my younger life and adult life in the city without ever relying on a car. However I like to shake things up in my life and it gives me such a thrill to live on the edge like this.
Tantra is about taking chances and exploration. What defines YOU? Do you define yourself by your ability to make good friends or are you more of an Isolationist and you like to get things done for yourself without relying on others?
Tantra is a bit of both. Tantra explores WHO YOU ARE AND HOW YOU DEFINE YOURSELF! We grow as we explore our sensual nature. What ever it is that you are good at Tantra will improve the flow of your life because you learn to breathe and when you breathe you activate NOT just your sexual energy but you activate your intuition.
I can’t say everyone feels something the first time they see me for a session but most people who are sensitive to touch and energy will shift layers only on ONE session. I breathe and chant with my dog daily and I practice pranayama daily so when we concentrate on the the breath we are focusing on the present .
It is a challenge for everyone these days just to live in the moment. Sometimes people have a tendency to be on a very tight schedule when they see me. They might have to pick up a child at violin or soccer practice. Their phone might be left on just in case their partner has an emergency. I wish people could just let a little bit more when they see me. My sessions are reasonably priced but the information and experiences that can be experienced is profound if you can LET GO of all external influences, worries and thoughts.
Tantra YOGA is after all YOGA. This is not some random silly excuse to a sensual flirt or tease this is actual CONCRETE healing profound energy work and I want everyone to get the most out of our time together.
It’s not fair to you and it’s not fair to me to keep a cell phone on. You deserve a treat.
Tantra massage and Tantra Yoga are healing tools. I heal myself profoundly each time I give a session. Yes I might go through states of worry, anxiety and panic during the day but this is a normal progression when you are reaching to Bliss. Tantra massage and Tantra YOGA are bliss explorations. You Test YOURSELF. You keep pushing your comfort level on what you might wish to learn and explore. You learn more about yourself. You learn how to touch someone with true intention.
Some clients who visited me for Goddess Worship were under the false assumption that this work is easy. NO it’s not easy. You are going to learn how to breathe maybe for the first time in your life. You are going to learn how to breathe, slow down your pace with you r lover, touch with heart intention and honor your beloved. Goddess worship is about making your lover feel so special she is empowered and energy is released in a very positive flow that makes both of you feel more trust and relaxation. There is a shared glow, a shared trust, a shared love and devotion that follows.
I am here in the moment enjoying my 2 day stay here in Indianapolis and I intend to attract the right people who might appreciate me. If I don’t attract the right people then simply it was not meant to be but trust me I learned something anyway. This is the first time I drove in a car with a complete stranger who became a really good friend to me and my pets. Tyler picked me up in Boston just two days ago and he fit me, my belongings, my pets and pet food in his tiny mini cooper. He writes an online blog that involves his own personal journey and he is also a great web designer. Both of us were excited to travel on this journey together that will eventually end in New Orleans. We are both staying with his friends Bre and Leslie in Indianapolis and I have had so much fun laughing, getting a bit of work and simply walking my dog in a new neighborhood.
I have lead a Tantra lifestyle ever since I knew how to talk. What is Tantra to you? Tantra is energy it’s not some cute catch phrase for sexual awareness it is YOU. We have one life we have many lifetimes to uncover what we need and want. Just shake off your fears and be in the moment.
I intend to relish every moment. My intention for you is that you let go of your fears and be prepared to experience tingling, joy, shaking, fear, panic the whole gamut of who you are.
I hope I meet you where ever you are in your life. And I hope I continue to travel for many years to come and be in this field that brings me so much joy and challenges.

I even offer personalized phone readings if you can’t see me in person. Enjoy your life. Spend your days wisely and travel more. Travel outside. Try tantra yoga once and take a break from it for a while but I bet you when you reach out and try tantra again it will carry a different meaning for you. 

Charging up your chakras with Tantra ❀

sexy valentino on couchThe primary focus of Tantra yoga should be enjoyment and pure energetic healing! Do not worry if you are a novice or if you have not felt sexual energy in ages. The goal should be healing, bodily awakenings, awareness of your own energy and the opening up of your entire Chakra bodies.
At the beginning of most tantra ceremonies you can either begin staring into the eyes of your partner or offering your special guest a healing and deep tissue massage to simply relax the body and establish a state of mutual trust and bonding.

I use an everything but the kitchen sink approach to my tantra healings because the chakras respond to smell, breath, touch, crystals, sound and pulsation exercises.

At the bottom of our tailbone is our Kundalini shakti our seat of bliss so we want to breathe awareness into our tail bone area and constantly apply gentle and rhythmical pressure so that we are consciously activating our kundalini shakti. Once we gently awaken our kundalini we want to guide the energy upwards by a constant flow of slow breath and visualization. It’s wise to be very gentle and patient during any beginner’s tantra session and if your partner is exhausted or sensing panic talk through the pain or the exhaustion. We have bodily “memories” that we have stored over a number of years so as we evolve and experience blissful states or pleasure we are also aware of any “blockages” we might have ignored just to “survive”.

The act of breathing or rebirth breath allows you to introduce oxygen back to all your cells and you begin to use your diaphragm muscles properly and with intention so the breath might not seem easy or natural to you at first but once you practice by yourself every day you begin to experience gentle activation of your kundalina shakti in your sleep. The vibrations are very pleasant and you might here a soft buzzing sound and warmth traveling from your tail bone and all the way up slowly towards your neck. You will actually feel this warmth and electricity in each of your vertebrae if you are practicing the breath and kegel exercises in increments. Be aware of your body and how you feel as if you are astral projecting but you still feel “safe”.

If after your first tantra session you are confused never be afraid to research more information by reading books or seeking the help of a trained tantra yoga educator or professional. If you felt embarrassed or ashamed let your teacher or therapist or lover know what you are going through so you can process the experience and understand yourself more.

Tantra involves opening up your entire body to the experience of bliss. We are not necessarily going after an end result of orgasm rather we are teaching you how to be more grateful and more open so you can feel pleasure more profoundly and use your sexual energies to heal and open up all the chakra systems in your body.

I love using music, singing, crystals, laughter, shamanism and breath during my sessions but there are many unique paths to bliss just as long as you are patient with yourself and open about your goals. Expectation can get in the way of your own bliss. Have a goal set into place but be truly willing to let of of your angst if you do not see that goal come to its fruition immediately. Sometimes we might have lofty goals but our bodies might not be physically evolved or capable enough to receive intense energy if we have not explored certain aspects of our sacred sexuality.

Be patient with yourself. Be patient, open and loving with your partner and teacher and you will find that the opening up of kundalini shakti will be an exploration of your emotional and physical development so you can attain the level of freedom and bliss you deserve.

I love using “toys” crytals during my Chakra balancing sessions!

Chakra balancing is very similar to a good healthy work out for your body. Chakra balancing can be achieved with your own innate ability to feel and perceive your blocks or aches and pains in your body. If you understand that a chakra is a place to receive and send energy then each major chakra body we have correlates to a major organ or function in our physical body.

Simply put if you were a constant sufferer of headaches, migraines or stubborn sinus infections you would sense not only discomfort but a block in your 6th and 7th chakras which combined together involve your connection to your own inner ability to perceive what we consider Source and or your ability to intuit and use your gut intuition before making important decisions.

We can focus on colors that correlate to each of our major chakra bodies and we can use powerful visualizations, repeat affirmations, wear certain fragrances, wear special colors and use crystals to help balance our chakras.

When you feel out of sorts your chakra bodies become muddled so if you cleanse your chakras through the use of crystals, sage or salt baths you can slowly achieve and restore a sense of power, balance and positive well being. Reiki is an instant body balancing way to shift your energies and help your chakra bodies to communicate and realign themselves with each other. I love to use hot stones, crystals and organic aromatherapy essences to refresh the entire chakra bodies.

We are not seeking a “quick” fix in fact your thoughts play a huge factor on your ability to stay balanced and vibrating. Even if you undergo an extensive chakra balancing session but you repeat negative behaviors or continue to create negative thought forms you can get in the way of restoring your own healing.

Crystals especially pure amethyst, clear quartz, rose quartz and selenite create a powerful field of positive energies in your Chakra bodies. The simple act of laying still with a stone or crystal over your heart or stomach can restore a sense of calm and help you get rid of the “jitters”. Practice a bit yourself. Find a special selection of stones and crystals that you are naturally attracted to. You might find a certain color you gravitate towards or a special “feel”. Play with the stones and see how they make you feel. Do they give you more energy or less energy? Certain stones might be extra powerful for your body’s needs so look up the crystals that correlate with each of your chakra bodies or just pick the ones that feel GOOD to you.selenite pyramid

I would love the opportunity to create a special healing ceremony just for you. You may schedule a reiki healing without committing to tantra yoga massage or you can incorporate crystal healing with any of my tantra ceremonies.

Learning when to cancel a session GRACEFULLY ❤

Blue Dog MishkaWell I really hate to cancel sessions especially if someone is new and they have not had a tantra healing in a very long time. I hate to say no and sometimes I realize all too late I am not a Super Power and my body has its limitations.
I accidentally missed a session because out of no where my monthly cycle hit me while in my sleep. I am one of those lucky few who have no signs or symptoms other than a voracious sweet tooth so since I never cramp or feel any discomfort I really can not plan on my cycle.
I went to bed pretty early with my phone right next to my pillow and slept through it ringing from 3 a.m. all the way up until noon. It was a fitful sleep and probably just what my body needed but I wish I had stayed awake long enough to cancel my upcoming session knowing my cycle had hit. I was abnormally tired and sleepy this weekend and I accidentally missed the chance to work because a new person wanted to see me but I never heard my phone ring!

I guess this taught me that I need to listen to my body’s cues better and the first indication of my moon cycle I need to postpone work because sometimes one’s body has plans of its own. I read somewhere that if you don’t plan enough private healing time your body will take a time out on its own and prevent you from moving forward. This was an example of one of those times where I had no control and was so sleepy I could not hear the phone on extra loud even though it was right near my ear.

I see some play time is needed and as a healer it is really hard to say no and not want to work especially when my work brings me so much personal joy and satisfaction. I guess I learned I have limits!

Happy July 4th to all of Chicago land ♡❤

Marilyn monroe 4th of july

Have you ever wanted to try something new but you told yourself NO? Have you been delaying your first Tantra journey because you feel out of sorts or out of shape or you have been running yourself ragged and are so exhausted the thought of doing something relaxing never even occurred to you?
Well I am guilty of those sins myself. I remember not wanting to hire any of my Reiki Usui masters for a healing simply because I felt like isolating myself. I was tired, cranky, depressed and just negative. I finally called one of my favorite healers and when he spent quality time with me to help open up my blocked chakras I told him the truth about not wanting to be TOUCHED by anyone because I felt so depressed and fatigued. He paused and giggled a bit and said “WELL that’s what I am here for!!! That is the time when you should be calling me–when you are NOT feeling well!”

Yeah shame on me. Sometimes I get caught up on healing others and my true delight is to work with a few people who have a deep desire to heal. I feel good about myself when I can put someone back into “the game” but for some reason I seem to ignore my own body’s needs.
Well this is a time for healing and July 4th tends to be a very joyous occasion for many but not necessarily a fun time for people who need to retreat or fade away because of all the fireworks and fan fare. How can you just hide away from the world when Kaboom noises are everywhere and almost every event you wish to attend is filled with lively people screaming and in long lines?

Save a little time for yourself if you have to. Designate just a bit of “me” time into the mix and I think you will be okay. If you are always in the company of others and you don’t have enough time to do just “be” you are going to be resentful so store away some of your energy and DO NOTHING or get a relaxing massage or spend some time in nature.

Everyone have a safe and soothing July 4th Weekend!!!

For my Diego

the silent life giver of worlds, what is most important is the nonillusion. morning breaks, the friendly reds, the big blues, hands full of leaves, noisy birds, fingers in the hair, pigeons’ nests a rare understanding of human struggle simplicity of the senseless song the folly of the wind in my heart = don’t let them rhyme girl = sweet xocolatl [chocolate] of ancient Mexico, storm in the blood that comes in through the mouth — convulsion, omen, laughter and sheer teeth needles of pearl, for some gift on a seventh of July, I ask for it, I get it, I sing, sang, I’ll sing from now on our magic — love.

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.
