Dance don't Wrestle  (Polarities Part 2)

As above, so below. Principles of nature exist at every scale of the universe from the micro to the macro level, and are at play within all living things: ourselves, within our relationships, society, culture, nature, the world and the cosmos. They are in all living things and in all social dynamics and on every level of existence. The two most basic and foundational principles of life are the polarity of positive and negative, yin and yang, the masculine and the feminine, from which all things are born.

You are born with the capacity to love, but you are not born with the art of love. That art of love has to be taught, has to be imbibed. People feel bored with their wives and with their husbands. The reason is they have not been able to contact the other's real soul. They have been able to contact the body, but they have missed the contact that happens heart to heart, center to center, soul to soul. Once you know how to contact soul to soul, when you have become soul-mates, then there is no boredom at all. Then there is always something to discover in the other because each being is an infinity, and each being contains God Himself.

Polarities Matter

When it comes to relationships, it is the ways in which we are the same that creates closeness between us.  Shared values, shared world view, shared goals, shared interests, time spent together and so on.   But it is distance and difference which creates and renews desire in a long term relationship.  Because a lot of  couples spend a lot of time together and sleep in the same bed every night, they can end up very deeply bonded on a friendship and love level, yet find that their attraction to each other gets weaker the longer they spend together.  All is not lost though, as there are some very practical things we can do to keep desire alive.

In Defence of Men and Masculinity

In Defence of Men and Masculinity

I have a lot of sympathy for men.   I think they put up with a lot.  The way they are portrayed on tv shows as bumbling idiots who can’t use a washing machine even though practically every machine ever invented was invented by a man.  The unconscious manner in which women joke about them and put them down. The way it's seemingly ok for women to objectify men but god forbid a man even looks too long at a woman.

Reclaiming Desire in a Long Term Relationship

It’s quite common for desire to disappear in a long term relationship. Sexual intimacy is important. Here are of my top tips to help you reignite desire in your intimate life. 1.Distance breeds desire. While spending 24 7 with your other half breeds familiarity and friendship.

TANTRA BRINGS HEALING TO RELATIONSHIPS

TANTRA BRINGS HEALING TO RELATIONSHIPS

Tantric sex is simple: It is the art of making love consciously. When we bring awareness to the act, we automatically contact deeply with the love that we are.  Tantra is embodied awareness, we situate our mind in our body, and we allow the intelligence of the body to flow. We naturally awaken to the love that we are, the energy of love which is always present, always available for us to connect with.  

THE FEMININE AND THE MASCULINE BELONG TOGETHER

THE FEMININE AND THE MASCULINE BELONG TOGETHER

All sacred sexuality traditions, indigenous traditions and esoteric teachings of the major religions from around the world and through the different ages teach this: All of creation stems from the interplay of masculine and feminine energies. The making love of Shiva and Shakti, yin and yang, expansion and contraction, action and receptivity, chaos and order, night and day, positive and negative are all expressions of  masculine and feminine energies.  This is the the dance of life. 

Thoughts on Touch

Thoughts on Touch

When you touch someone it should be special.  You should be centred and present and fully engaged with the part of the body you are touching.  Conscious touch is loving, present, relaxing, and expansive.  All touch should be conscious.   Unconscious touch, touching a person while your mind is elsewhere really doesn’t feel very nice.
