Tantra is a spiritual path that embraces sexuality as a doorway to the Divine. If you experience lovemaking as a living prayer and see your beloved as a God or Goddess, then sex can take you beyond the world of form, into the formless mystical realms. Here are 7 tantric tips to help you turn sex into a spiritual practice.
Kiss and Bite the Neck
The neck is a sensitive and exciting erogenous zone. Explore the entire neck and throat area through various types of kissing, nipping, pinching, and biting. Take the lover’s direction from her as to what she likes. See if you can bring your lover to orgasm just by stimulating her neck.
breath connected
Before you make love, take some time to breathe together and connect your energy. Practice slow abdominal breathing while looking into each other’s eyes. Do this practice until you feel the energy flow between you. Connect your energy with your lover’s energy starting at the base of the spine and moving up to the heart.
Share how you like to be loved
Take turns telling your lover exactly how love likes to be. Be specific. Show them where and how to touch you. You may even want to demonstrate this by touching yourself as they watch. Describe how you like to be kissed, if you like to have your hair pulled, describe a favorite fantasy, etc.
Embodying a particular God or Goddess
Dress as a particular god or goddess, such as Krishna and Radha, the Hindu god and goddess of love. Embody your qualities and imagine what it would be like to make love to each other as this God and Goddess. Then play your parts as “Divine Lovers.”
erotic massage
Give your beloved an erotic massage. Take your time, use long slow strokes and go slow. Discover new ways to give them pleasure. Help them expand their “pleasure body” using the 3 Keys of Sky Dancing Tantra, breath, sound and movement.
recite erotic poetry
Find poetry that turns you on. I like Rumi, Hafiz and Kabir. Spend time reading erotic poetry out loud to your lover. Write your lover an erotic or ecstatic poem and recite it to him. He makes up a Haiku. Let the language massage your soul.
be an artist of love
Stretch out and discover new ways to love like never before. Be a canvas for love to play on. Know that you cannot fail as a love artist. Humans are love in form. Allow yourself to be inspired and share your vision with others.
Tantra is an ancient spiritual path that encompasses all areas of life as a path to awakening. Human beings need to be touched and to feel love. Sexuality is a way to connect with your life force energy and enter ecstatic realms. Learning to give and receive pleasure is healthy, fun, and bonding. Practice loving yourself and others every day. Spread joy and create a better world.
