How to Start your Tantric Journey

Hi and welcome to all new followers!

This is a webpage where you can learn some tantric teachings, such as meditation, chakra work, kundalini awakening, spiritual journeys, and much more.

If you are interested, you can start with these easy steps, or contact me for a meeting. I offer coaching and Tantra classes in Launceston, Tasmania.

Be Present

It may sound simple to say start with being present. But this is something that many people don't do, and you might think that you are present, but your brain is occupied with so many thoughts and things to do. So being present usually means that we have to arrive into our bodies. The best way to do this is to be still and breathe. When you are sitting still for a few moments, you can feel your awareness coming back to you, and if you listen to your breath, you can follow the breath inside your body, sensing the air in the nostrils going down your lungs, arriving in your lungs, and then releasing the breath back out. When we follow the breath, we are focusing our attention onto it, and with attention comes awareness and energy. This makes you Present.

Breath

Breathing is, as you have understood, life-changing. It is our closest relationship to life; without it, we cannot live. So when we take a big breath of air, we are giving ourselves a big dose of life. Being present and aware of your breath can give you an instant sense of peace and aliveness. Start by taking deep breaths and filling your lungs. Do this for a few moments until you feel you are in your body more, you are in the moment. Then you can let go of forcing your breath; let it naturally come to you. Just sit with it and listen to the breath. Breathing together with your partner is part of every tantric exercise almost so you can start with sitting or standing close to each other. Then syncronize your breath.

This is a meditation that brings you closer to each other and lets your heart come to the same frequency.

Grounding

Many people talk about grounding yourself before any type of ritual or meditation, but did you know that grounding itself is something you can and should be doing on a daily basis? Grounding means that you connect to the earth. Either via your feet, barefeeted on the ground, walking on grass, or via the earth's electromagnetic field. For example, walking in nature or connecting your lower chakras with the field of the earth.

When we are grounding, we come back into our bodies as well; we change the frequency of our bodies, and we allow our skin to get in contact with nature itself. Touching alien materials, like plastic, metal, concrete, etc., and sitting in front of a computer screen the whole day can cause us to feel spaced out and in our heads instead of our bodies. I also recommend some physical workout, like cleaning your house (avoid chemicals), chopping wood, gardening, building something, etc. When we use our bodies to achieve something, we automatically tend to arrive more in our bodies and ground ourselves.

Being in the Heart

Tantra is, most of all, a way of being more with ourselves and listening more to our hearts. So when we take our hearts for granted and don't listen into the heart frequency, we don't have good energy. It's like the heart needs to be open and able to receive and give for us to feel alive. Many times we close our hearts because we are scared of the pain that we encounter. But a closed heart means that we cannot receive anything good either.

Compassion, love, kindness, attraction, dreams, and relationships, it all comes down to whether or not your heart can hold that frequency or not. An easy way to start awakening your heart is to sit in meditation and take your awareness down into your heart; you can also place your hand on your heart and breathe with the heart and lungs in your hands. Also, you can connect to the heart and journal your heart's desire. I notice that if I connect with the heart before I write in my journal, then I listen to my highest truth. The heart wants to communicate with you. It's up to you to create space to receive what the heart is yearning for.

Awakening Sexual Energy

Sexual energy is an amazing energy that can completely change your life. When used correctly, sexual energy also makes us feel more alive. The sexual energy center is your second chakra and sits under your belly button. If you place your hands here, you can sense a warmer energy, and this is your sexual energy. Some of us don't feel anything at all in the beginning. But you can practice giving energy from your hands to this area, or you can arouse yourself without orgasm and build up this energy in this area. When you feel that you have managed to build up energy in this chakra, make sure you don't spend it on porn or a quick release. The energy can be channeled into your whole body.

I can teach you how. I will post about that soon...

Awareness

Energy goes where awareness flows, and the opposite is true as well. So paying attention to yourself first of all. Listening to your body's signals, your thoughts, and your heart's desire. When you really take this practice seriously, you will create a better life for yourself. Every day your body sends you small and big signals about how you are feeling and what you need. It is up to us to take the time to listen and to act accordingly. Meditation is therefore a step you can take to sit with yourself and listen inward. You can also direct your awareness to different body parts or chakras to see what information is stored there.

Or if you are in a relationship, use your awareness to really see your partner, to pay attention to your partner's needs and feelings. Observation and being in the body help you to be more aware.
