The human body is the holiest form of existing. To harness the universal energy stored in it and enhance the way you feel and love is to achieve personal growth. Tantra is the attainment of this through sensitive nurturing, pleasurable touch experiences, healing as medication but full of love, art and respect.

In this art form, you learn to harness your inner energies and foster the divine in your own self. It is the simultaneous union of the masculine-feminine and the spiritual matter which leads to the ultimate goal of achieving bliss in non-duality.

Tantra is rooted back to its religious ties having relations with traditions of Hinduism and Buddhism. Over time, it has gone from being a practice focusing on the spiritual aspect of things and rather aiming at the sexual part to it today. It has gained immense popularity too over time. There are workshops held to teach people how to do it and even spas where you can stay for 10 days and experience it.

By sorting overly critical and harsh voices from the good and helpful thoughts, we can better develop self-compassion while moving more steadily in the direction of our dreams. We need to give ourselves permission to grow into the wisdom that we already have within us, somewhere deep inside. Tantra helps to explore just that, leading to personal growth while allowing to be pleasured while doing just that. 

There are at times workshops conducted as well to make people learn the art of Tantra. It helps explore the modern sexual or spiritual energy in oneself. It is not some kind of weird erotic practice but rather a way of life to attain spiritual growth. Pleasure, vision and ecstasy are celebrated through it. It is in fact seen that we can attain satisfaction from both everyday life and also sexual experiences.

The necessity of it all is to be able to form a deeper connection with either your partner or your own self. The exploring of the spiritual and sexual path and the bliss that comes out of it become intertwined into one. It is not limited to any specific sexual orientation, to couples or to single people. Most importantly it must be remembered that it does not contain any nudity or explicit sexual touches (especially in the workshops, or the spas) and is a clean, healthy practice.
