They share their personal journeys and motivations for doing this work, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness, trust, vulnerability, and presence in intimate relationships. They explain the benefits of spiritualizing sex and expanding one's sexual repertoire. They also discuss the significance of practicing white tantra before engaging in red tantra with a partner. Finally, they explore the concept of separating orgasm from ejaculation and the potential for full-body orgasms. This conversation explores the topics of male sexual energy, harnessing sexual energy through Tantra, the benefits of non-ejaculatory orgasms, expanding the duration and intensity of orgasms, running pleasure through the whole body, the learning curve and overcoming challenges, myths and misconceptions about female arousal, exploring erogenous zones, mindset and sexual sovereignty, and embracing curiosity and letting go of judgment. Takeaways Cultivating sexual energy can benefit overall health and vitality. Embarking on a journey of sexual exploration and spiritualizing sex can lead to transcendent experiences and personal growth. Self-awareness, trust, vulnerability, and presence are essential foundations for exploring sexual energy.
