Introduction to Tantra
$20
Tantra uses sexual energy for consciousness expansion.
Join award winning authors Mark and Patricia for an honest discussion in which we will dispel some of the popular myths surrounding this ancient tradition. You will learn that elements of Tantric philosophy and practice can be easily applied to our modern lives in ways that do more than simply improve our sex lives.
Mark A. Michaels (Swami Umeshanand Saraswati) and Patricia Johnson (Devi Veenanand) are a devoted married couple and have been teaching Tantra together since 1999. Their approach combines traditional lineage-based Tantra with the best contemporary methods so that students can bring heightened awareness and an expanded capacity for pleasure into all aspects of everyday life. Michaels and Johnson are the authors of The Essence of Tantric Sexuality (Llewellyn, 2006), which won the USA Book News National Best Books 2007 Award in Health: Sexuality. Their second book, Tantra for Erotic Empowerment: The Key to Enriching Your Sexual Life (Llewellyn 2008) won the 2008 USA Book News Award, also in Health: Sexuality, was selected as an Indie Excellence Awards finalist in New Age Non-Fiction, and was a ForeWord Magazine Books of the Year Award finalist in the Body, Mind and Spirit category. They were guest teachers in Tristan Taormino's Chemistry 4, a sexually explicit film in which they introduced the cast to Tantra. They have been featured on television (Good Day Colorado, AM Northwest, Naked New York), radio (Afternoon Advice and Nightcalls on Playboy Radio, Go to Bed with Cosmo Radio, The Derek and Romaine Show, A Chef's Table) and have been quoted as experts in numerous publications and on many websites from women's magazines to dating websites to men's magazines to GLBT- oriented media including Redbook, Latina, Jane,Cosmopolitan, The Village Voice, Metro, Pregnancy and Newborn, More, Rockstar, The Sydney Star Observer (Australia's most popular GLBT weekly), Emotion (Germany), The Complete Idiot's Guide to Tantric Sex, and The Complete Idiot's Guide to Enhancing Sexual Desire.
