Welcome to Episode 428 of the Sexology Podcast! Today, I’m excited to be joined by Dr. Alexandria Saunders, who speaks to me about the transformative practice of Yoni massage within Tantra. We explore how this sacred technique can deepen intimacy, heal past trauma, and help individuals reconnect with their bodies in a more profound and holistic way.

In this episode, Dr. Alexandria shares how her journey into Tantra began through yoga and how she seamlessly integrates spiritual and sexual wellness into her work. We discuss the misconceptions surrounding Tantra, emphasizing that it’s more than just sexual positions - it's a philosophy that celebrates the body and pleasure as pathways to deeper awareness.

Dr. Alexandria Saunders is a sexologist, tantra coach, and pleasure activist dedicated to cultivating spaces of safety. With a doctorate in sexology and countless clinical and spiritual trainings and certifications, Alexandria allows her wisdom to guide her toward offering the medicine of her heart, which is to help others heal trauma and reintegrate their sexuality so they can wholly embody pleasure. As a medicine woman, Alexandria walks with people as they discover the depths of bliss hidden behind their scars. Healing trauma, reintegrating sexuality, and embodying pleasure are all guideposts of her work.
