I want to invite you deeper into the world of Tantra, a tradition that has the power to awaken your senses, expand your consciousness, and bring you into a deeper connection with yourself and the world around you.
What is Tantra?
In our latest podcast episode, “What Tantra Is, and What Tantra Is Not” we explore the essence of Tantra and its various lineages. We delve into the different aspects of meditation, somatic work, daily worship, and the beautiful realm of Neo Tantra, which embraces sexual embodiment. However, we also dispel common misconceptions surrounding Tantra, such as the notion of wild orgies and purely sexual behavior. There is a big difference between conscious sexuality and Tantra, and whilst conscious sexuality is a part of Tantra, it’s only one piece of the big puzzle.
Tantra is so much more than temple nights, massage and feeding each other chocolate! It is a path of embodiment, of fully inhabiting your body and experiencing life in its entirety. It is about recognizing your own divinity and tapping into the vast well of love and aliveness that resides within you. Tantra invites you to communicate your authentic expression unashamedly, opening the doors to a deep sense of safety and connection.
At the heart of Tantra is the journey from base to crown, from the groundedness of our primal instincts to the expansion of our spiritual connection. It is about awakening the pineal gland, the seat of intuition and oneness, and remembering that we are all interconnected. Through Tantra, we learn to embrace the extraordinary beings that we are, basking in the joy of our own existence.
This podcast episode, taken from the opening of Living Tantra Retreat in Spain, is a foundational piece of what our Embodied Awakening Academy stands for. It encapsulates the essence of Tantra and serves as a gateway for newcomers and deep divers alike, to understand what this transformative tradition is all about. We invite you to listen to the podcast and let its wisdom and inspiration seep into your being.
In the podcast episode, you’ll hear from Raven on:
- Her Tantric journey
- The origins and philosophy of Tantra
- Awakening Kundalini energy
- Recognizing the divinity and joy within ourselves
“These practices are enriching you to feel the capacity to let Kundalini awaken your whole being – opening you into oneness so you are flooded by something that is so precious and lets your identity die every time you sit on the cushion”
