Although often synonymous with sex, tantra has to do with the connection - whether it be with yourself, or between you and a partner. In practice, tantra is about overcoming the sexual as well as the spiritual plane by engaging in deeply meditative, spontaneous and intimate sex.
It has to do with knowing your body
Like yoga, tantra is about physical and spiritual awareness. When you learn and practice tantra, you become more connected to the body. This allows you to better pay attention to the wishes and needs and make sure they are realized.
Plus, the energies you channel throughout the body during tantric sexual moments can positively affect orgasm.
And if you have a partner, you also know his / her body
Tantra is not only focused on achieving a higher state of mind-body consciousness. It can also be creating a deeper, more harmonious relationship with your partner.
When you practice tantra, you learn to be physically aware and spiritually present. Tantra also allows you to explore and expand on all aspects of your personality so that you can begin to really get to know the other person.
Sofia Sundari, a writer and trainer on sex empowerment, suggests:
1. Try not to overload your partner with information. Instead, explain what you like about your sex life and how you can improve the experience.
2. Listen to what they have to say and regardless of the answer, respect their decisions.
How to prepare the mind
Tantra is a spiritual practice, which means that the mind enters the game as much as the body. When you practice tantra, you connect body, mind and soul. Practice like this:
1. Focus on breathing: 15 to 30 minutes Breathe gently and stay in touch with what is going on in your mind - whether stress or desire.
2. Lie down for a few minutes: Stretch each limb, clear the mind of any negative thoughts that weigh on you.
3. Spend at least 30 minutes a day writing in the diary: Work through thoughts that can block spiritual growth.
How to prepare the environment
1. Make sure the space is at a comfortable temperature.
2. Create atmosphere with candles, flowers or any other way that give the environment a more sensual look.
3. Add your favorite scent - scented candles, essential oil, etc. Discover a fragrance that makes you feel sexy but not too strong.
4. "Soften the space" by placing blankets or plush pillows.
5. Create a romantic sensation, for example with background music.
