Goddesses make sure you are sincere about your intentions when you meet others in your field

Giorgione_-_Sleeping_Venus_-_Google_Art_Project_2So have not posted in a while (all of two days to be precise). What prompted me to write this article is the fact that my browser was acting up on my face book page but I really felt the need to share about the “theatrics” that I have encountered with my fellow tantra practitioners. I wish we could all be “friends” but since I have been touring the United states these past five years I found out the hard way that some people are more concerned about creating a false “marketing image” for themselves than actually letting down their guard long enough to be good friends with fellow healers or at least try to want to be of service to each other rather than being sneaky and creating issues for each other.

I am sharing this post so clients can see the real human side to the women or men they give their complete trust to. I am not perfect but I love the work I do with a passion and I always wish for the best when I meet someone new that something positive or at least something beneficial was exchanged during our time together whether it was healing, relaxation or some laughter.

I wrote this essay or rambling though form not to create “trouble” for anyone but to enlighten people about my own journey, my challenges and my attempt to make some friends if I could while I offered tantra massage in the United States these past five years. I won’t complain though because I am doing something I truly love but I met a lot of hypocrites in my field as well as finding out I don’t mind being a longer for as long as I am staying true to who I am —an imperfect Being trying to create a handful of memorable experiences with some outstanding people.

Here is my writing from my heart tonight and I pray this information is read with love and understanding.

I have been very quiet lately mostly because I realize how very much alone I am in this “tantra world” or maybe just the world in general. Before I went to florida I contacted a few “face book friends” just in case they might want to get together or offer me a bit of advice but no one wanted to meet up with me …one person did hire me but it was only because he was “fixated” on my photos and loved tantra so his curiosity got the better of him and he schedule a session with me for all of 90 minutes at my savagely discounted florida rate. I have no issues giving discounts but tips mean a lot to me since I am a nomad living in hotels now.
I was disappointed and let down these past three years because when I kind of needed real help or just to network or meet for coffee from a fellow goddess no one stepped up to the plate. No one wanted to really “get involved” and I do understand I am a stranger so there is always going to be a fear factor.
I was let down when I finally meet someone in person and realize they have nothing of value to offer me or anyone else.
I did meet one outstanding goddess many years ago when I was living in New Orleans. I still did not have established clientele in New Orleans so I enjoyed travel everywhere and used the eros guide (which banned me this year) to market my traveling so no matter where I went I was greeted with enthusiasm and I loved feeling needed and meeting new clients. There were times when new tantra goddesses moved to Chicago and never introduced themselves to me. I also found a group of goddesses in New Orleans but again they never wanted to establish contact with me. The one person who actually cared was a tantra goddess who called herself Sofia del terra. She responded to an email I had sent her when I was in New Orleans and I love Manhattan New York especially in the summer so I asked if she would meet me and SHE DID!
Sofia met me for a day of fun and of course she was curious about me so i told her about being “set up” by my condo neighbors and How I no longer felt safe in Chicago since I was forced into doing a short sale of my condo that I only owned for 3 years. Sofia listened to me without judgment and she shared her stories about receiving some “problems” in New York and how she had to use an alias to protect her privacy. She advised me to increase my pricing in New York a notch or two and sympathised with me all the while she let me have a mini tour of New York and we agreed on splitting some belgian Frittes before she had to go. She ended up cheering me up, giving me advice and I found out she had referred most of her clients to visit me each time I went to New York. I have nothing but good things to say about this beautiful goddess. She did not listen to any gossip about me she just wanted to help me.
What people do not understand is the value of making good friends in this field is invaluable. People may not realize it but I am number one on Google for the city of Chicago and each time I have been away on my traveling sprees I receive 2 or more sincere requests a day from tourists and locals who ask me if I know of anyone or have any partners to refer them to. I let them know I truly do not have any partners or good friends in Chicago because when I reached out trying to get to know the few goddesses who now make their home Chicago they never returned my calls or wished to get involved. I truthfully say in my field it’s mostly about who shines the proudest amongst which clique of people and I am a harsh judge of character. I was even “checked out” and sized up as competition from a “goddess” who lived in New Orleans and wanted to meet me not so much to help me or network with me but to drill me with questions and pry into my personal life not out of polite curiosity but to find out if I am a potential threat. After meeting with me she promptly reduced her own rates and copied some links I had on my website to better her “cause”. The silly older woman made an enemy of me and encouraged her friends in the Quarter to harass me. I don’t forgive such stupidity and cruelty and when I did leave the French Quarter I did receive a ton of calls but I chose not to refer her to any of my future clients because she did not know how to act like a Goddess.
Goddess is a term used broadly these days. If you are going to use that word spread some love and spread some truth. When you go out of your way to hurt people it lingers for a long time down the road. I was not impressed with the fellow students I met on many retreats I took in Hawaii with Charles Muir as figurehead. I was even physically ill during level III and certain people in his group were making my stay a living hell rather letting me rest and be in the moment with my physical pain. I remember how one of his co teachers took me to the side while I was bleeding through my skirts telling me she just did not see the “goddess in me”. I already knew she did not have a Goddess in her. Her name was Judy and at the time she was not a fully certified teacher of tantra but she was a certified real estate agent…and I have been a sensual healer since the age of 21. I was thinking surely she had a lot of “catching up to do”.
To the few people I met in my lifetime I am deeply grateful and yes I did refer my clients to some wonderful healers here on my page. For the others who could not even bother to call me on the phone I have nothing to say good or bad…I just don’t involve myself that way.
You can’t judge someone by their face book wall. I never take anyone for face value I am hard to please but once you have impressed me you have a secret ally for life ❤
Goddesses remember how Karma circles and circulates. Unless you have let go of your ego you are simply playing with the job title and all it entails.
I have nothing further to say for the evening….

Tantra is the practice of achieving complete self actualization and personal power ♡❤

Dear Audience, what I am about to share with you is very sensitive but truthful information on how to open up your heart to more love and self awareness. Unless you have taken the time to have a reiki session or a kundalini yoga class you might not be aware of how you are judging yourself or the world around you.
Tantra yoga which is something I teach to my students is the quickest route to self healing, self realization and an opening up of all the chakra systems in your body.

During our day to day life we are faced with people’s opinions and judgments of us. We can be influenced and swayed a certain way if we are not firmly grounded into our own body and our own being. It’s hard to read people’s motives because we all have varied and vast life forming opinions based on how we were raised and our environmental stimulus.

When we are bombarded with information and other people’s opinions we can lose sight of what we need and what we create which is more important than what other people want you to believe.

We create our own reality based on what we think other people want or need of us. Tantra teaches us to fine tune our thinking. We stop and we listen to our bodies and we breathe deeply and more profoundly taking the time to honor yourself. We want to connect to our body’s ability to heal itself. We want to be aware of the temperature of the room, the sounds of our environment and the depth of breath we are taking in. We pause and we sustain consciousness.

I want everyone to let down their guard and just think about the fact that we are made of pure energy. Each wheel of energy has an affect upon the other energy circles or chakras. Tantra is a lot like Reiki because we focus on circulating our energies everywhere envisioning a circle or egg shaped circuit beginning with our base chakra or root chakra and traveling to the top of our heads and circling back down to our tail bone.

We use our sexual energy to recharge and refreshen all of our energy bodies not just one part. We want to synchronize and heal any old wounds and traumas by envisioning our sexual sacred energy as a powerful conduit of energy that can reestablish a lost connection between all our chakras. Each part of our body becomes more sensitive and more acutely aware of the power that resides within us.

Ultimately the goal of tantra is to reconnect you with your own intuition or inner voice. We want to reprogram our body into being fully open and empowered or “awakened”. I want to be a part of that important catalyst and help people learn that being “open” and loving is their given birth right. When you doubt your own ability to heal you are halting your own progression.

Every time I establish a new connections with someone who comes to me for a healing I know that I am calling forth to me someone who is vibrating at a very similar state of consciousness as I am. If there are issues that I myself am not dealing with personally I will have a natural tendency to attract anyone to me who is on a very similar path.

We need to learn we are all part of the same fabric. We learn together; we grow together and we feed each other vital energy on a daily basis whether we actively seek this out or not.

Human beings need to be “seen”. We need to share and we need to be held “sacred”. We all need respect and we all have to be honored for our uniqueness and our boundaries.

I love teaching people how to be more mindful of themselves and how to touch with intention and purposeful slowness. We are more than just “thinking” machines; we are pure energy learning how to create and manifest miracles in a human body.

What makes a Tantra Ceremony special? ❤♡

There are many roads to happiness in this lifetime and my number one passion will always be the ability to carry the work I do anywhere I want to in the United States. There are some cities where tantra is well known and well received and other cities that are far more challenging such as New Orleans, Louisiana.
Let’s face it, this is a DRINKING town. People come here to let loose and this is one of the few cities that will allow anyone to walk around with cups of gargantuan sized lethal doses and quantities of alcohol so the fact that I exist here might not pique enough tourist’s interests because this city is known for stripping bars, great food, late night drinking establishments and of course casinos where you can win a lot or lose everything.

Why on Earth should anyone drop everything and come see me ? Well I can assure you during my sessions I work on tight areas first because sexual energy can only flow freely when your body is completely relaxed and muscle tension can and will inhibit your sexual energies from traveling where it needs to go.

Sexual energy can travel up towards the top of your skull or it can even travel downwards to your ankles and personally I feel the energy knows exactly where to go because if you have had old injuries anywhere in your body your sexual energy is going to go directly to that area of your body that needs some extra TLC.

Tender loving care is exactly what you will receive during any of my tantra ceremonies. Tantra is not simply a journey in arousal and testing your sexual boundaries; tantra is an exploration of you living completely in the moment and being aware of the weight of your body.
All tantra ceremonies involve a connection between me and you but also a deeper connection and link to your own body.

You will be made to be aware of the temperature of the room that we both inhabit and the feeling of my hands as I wander all over your body. You will be aware of the weight and pressure of your own body on the bed and you will be breathing deeply and slowly alternatively into your heart center and your abdomen as I touch you so you can feel energy open up where formally you were numbed out.

If all you do as a tourist is simply numb out by drinking you are missing you. You are missing the gentle nuances of energies and the subtle smells and tastes that bring about heightened awareness. You can numb yourself out when visiting New Orleans or you can spend some time getting to know your own body more intimately.

I enjoy teaching beginners how to breathe deeply for maybe the very first time of their life. We tend to breathe very shallowly as we get older. We become more self conscious and when we listen to others we might even stop breathing altogether. The central nervous system relies on proper breath to work properly and to sustain our bodies. If you constantly breathe shallowly this leads eventually to stress and over taxes your body. Little things and annoyances begin to bother you. Tantra yoga allows you to learn how to gain more control of the way you breathe and it sets a pace so that you feel you have more control and command over your nervous system and your body’s ability to heal.

Tantra massage is a very unifying, healing exploration in full body orgasmic bliss. We start with blockages in both your physical body and then your astral body. The focus is on healing and preparing you for extreme weightlessness and timelessness. A good session should feel as if you are floating and your natural breathing rhythm will set the pace so you feel as if time has never passed.

Share some sacred time during your next vacation. There will always be time enough for drinking but there is never enough time to learn more about your body’s natural abilities to heal itself.

Are you following your passion?

Hello I can’t help but waking up feeling positive about life even though at times I wonder where I am headed! I try and make every city I visit my home so for right now while I am here in New Orleans, Louisiana I am considering this my home even if I leave in a month or two.
I don’t start every tantra session the same. Sometimes I feel someone might be so open we just sit in front of each other with our foreheads touching and breathing circular breaths together just so we can slow down and get a sense of being ONE person instead of two separate beings. I don’t always get that clear signal from someone and if so just a wonderful deep tissue massage starting with the shoulders and neck can be comforting enough for anyone to let down their guard.

Sometimes a couple will hire me or rather a really caring husband with wonderful intentions will want me to come over and work on his wife’s energy but we always have to respect the fact that the yoni must be healed only when the Goddess in question is safe, comfortable and ready to learn.

So I have a question for you! Are you living your passion? Most people who are passionate about the work they do thrive when it comes to relaxing and extra curricular activities because they have already possessed skills and enthusiasm in their day to day ritual. I find that most men or women who are in their complete power are very comfortable working with their sexual energy and most of the time they want their husband and wife to participate more in life which includes tantra massage and tantra sex.

I can instantly detect when a man or a woman is comfortable sharing their sexuality with me and they want a “tune Up”. We can learn from being in any situation and we can always get better at a skill when we possess PASSION. I am passionate. I wake up and remember all my dreams and share it with people on my face book page because I do want to learn and I do want to process anything negative or positive from my past and present.

If I am fully aware of what I need to learn I can be more present for you. Some people can try and relax and be present but they find it a deep challenge. Some people are embarrassed to express their needs even to someone they deeply love. Some people are afraid to give up the control and relax so they might smoke, drink, fidget, constantly check their cell phones for messages and pretty do anything BUT connect with their friends, their healer, or their close family members. This is cheating everyone. It’s cheating yourself if you avoid the NOW.

Being full present and accepting who you are NOW and trying new things without any sense of fear or judgement is a challenge but a challenge that is very important for you to achieve and meet head on.

Avoidance of being in the NOW is crippling. It’s like you are separating yourself and fragmenting yourself so every one if your life is only receiving and understanding a small part of you.

Tantra massage addresses the organic you, the sensuous you, the timid you, the ornery you, the relaxed you, the authentic you! When you receive a tantra healing it’s similar to peeling the skin off an apple. In order to get to the sweet, juicy meat of the fruit you have to be patient and peel away that tender outer skin that outer shell of you.

I hope to meet you where ever you are on your journey and maybe it will take a few more months or a few more years. The journey is about being Passionate and Accepting yourself and accepting unconditional love and healing touch from your partner no matter what you look like and no matter what your goals are.Valentino and Diana nudes

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!!!

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”.
