Tantra is an ancient tradition that incorporates all aspects of our being. Our heart, our spirit, our body, our emotions, and our sexuality.

Through tantric practices we can connect with each other on a level that is more than just body to body, but is soul to soul, heart to heart, where the connection of our whole beings can bring us together in great bliss, healing and fulfilment.

Sexuality is an important aspect of Tantra, and the result of tantric practice and development can certainly include more pleasure, fuller orgasms, multi-orgasmic potential for men & women, and the experience of spiritual bliss through sexual union.

However if we focus on the sexual aspect of tantra alone, it always leaves something missing. Because the deepest fulfilment come when we connect with all of who we are. When our heart and our spirit are connected with our sexuality is when we experience true spiritual intimacy and deeply fulfilling connection we yearn for.

In this special free talk we'll be delving into the true heart and spirit of tantra, we'll be sharing how tantra can:

• Help you create a healthy and empowered relationship with your sexuality

• Create deep connection with yourself and others on an emotional, spiritual, physical and sexual level.

• Heal the relationship of your inner masculine & feminine, and develop deeply loving relationships with others.

• Experience sexuality as a deeply spiritual experience, as well as a pleasurable and physical one

• Understand how to release old trauma and pain on an energetic, emotional and physical level

• Live from your embodied power and heartfelt love, rather than from your head, fears, or anxieties

Tantra is far more than just a set of techniques, or a sexual instruction manual. It is truly a process of coming into love with yourself, of healing and aligning within, and bringing all aspects of your being to every moment.

In this special free talk we'll be introducing how you can experience these benefits of Tantra for yourself, and create a truly loving and spiritual experience in your sexuality and relationships.

The Tantric Connections team each bring a wealth of experience and different perspectives of the path together to provide a deep and holistic viewpoint of this ancient tradition:

Alison Petrie

Alison has been practicing and teaching Tantra for more than 10 years. Originally working in the corporate world in IT, she found herself seemingly stuck in a 'masculine' mode of logic and thinking, and disconnected from her body and full capacity for sexual connection and pleasure. After following a spiritual path including yoga, meditation, counselling, dance and psychology, Alison discovered through Tantra just how much spiritual and sexual power remains untapped for many women, and how our connections with others and with life can open to whole other dimensions of bliss, love and pleasure. For the last decade Alison has worked extensively with both women and couples to heal old wounds and energy blocks, re-connect to their heart and their authentic selves, and expand passion and pleasure in sexuality and in life.

Simon Wing-Lun

After a period of rapid spiritual awakening and healing in his early twenties, Simon became interested in Tantra and the spiritual dimensions of sex in 2011, which led to a deep exploration of many aspects of tantra and conscious sexuality. Through Tantra it became clear to Simon how limited the paradigm of sexual education and pornographic influence he received growing up was, and how the spiritual dimensions of sexuality opened up whole new possibilities of connection. Through his healing and Tantra work Simon helps people to come into truly loving alignment within themselves sexually, spiritually and emotionally, including supporting men to connect with both their masculine power and authentic sensitivity, and supporting women to heal from trauma and rediscover trust and safety in their relationships with men.

Lora Radford

After experiencing sexual abuse and trauma as a child, Lora had a difficult time with sexuality and relationships as an adult without a clear framework or understanding of how to deal with what had happened to her. Lora was originally introduced to tantra through her relationship with Simon, and it has helped her to re-discover how beautiful, liberating, safe and intimate sexuality can be. It has opened up Lora's relationship to, and love for, her own sexuality, and allowed her to experience sexual relationship as a true honouring of the moment, and an opportunity for great healing, release, and transformation. Lora has also found that tantra has allowed her to soften more deeply into herself - both her capacity to set boundaries and speak her truth, and also her ability to relax into her femininity and flow, trusting that her beingness is enough and that her feminine beauty is a safe and valid place to be. Lora is passionate about offering a space where others can heal, drop further into the true power and love of their own beingness, and realise the amazing potential of sexual intimacy with themselves and others.

Alison, Simon & Lora will each be sharing elements of the benefits of Tantra from their own perspectives, and how the journey has transformed each of their own personal experiences of connection, intimacy and sexuality.
