devi maisha of sensual energy alchemy talks the wonders of offering yourself your own erotic energy in every season of your life— kristen jeré
“i loved the Kama Sutra. I wanted to do yoga because I wanted to have better sex. i was always interested in that. but combining it with meditation and breath-work, learning that while sex and orgasms are great, when bodies come together it can become this magical experience beyond the pleasure of the moment, that it can heal and expand your mental capacities, that’s what got me into [sacred sexuality].”

healing through the five senses — brianne patrice
our senses are almost always with us and the whole of us possess such power that allows us to tap into them almost instantaneously, connecting us to their healing powers and calming waters. there is a likeness about the way we are allowed to heal ourselves from the inside out. about offering ourselves groundedness through gentle movements and subtle breaths.
