Tantric sex - what is it and how

What if your next orgasm wasn’t just physical, but spiritual, emotional, and deeply transformative? In a world where quick pleasure often replaces deep connection, tantric sex is making a powerful comeback.

Whether you're new to the idea or seeking to deepen your sensual connection with yourself or a partner, tantra invites you to slow down, breathe, and truly feel. It’s not about performance it’s about presence. So let’s explore how this ancient practice can revolutionize your relationship with sexual pleasure, self-love, and intimacy.

 

What Is Tantric Sex?

Tantric sex originates from ancient Eastern philosophies, particularly Tantra, a spiritual practice from India and Tibet. Rather than focusing on fast release, tantra encourages slowing down, tuning into your senses, and experiencing orgasms as waves of energy that move through the whole body.

At its core, tantric sex is about:

Deep presence and mindfulness

Energetic connection between partners

Breathwork and eye contact

Sacred touch and intention

Experiencing pleasure without pressure

It transforms sex into a meditative ritual one that honors your body, your partner, and your erotic energy.

 

Modern life is filled with stress, distractions, and disconnection. Tantric sex offers a path back to ourselves. It boosts intimate well-being by helping you reconnect with your body, awaken your senses, and dissolve shame around sexual pleasure.

Tantra can help:

Deepen emotional intimacy

Increase body confidence

Enhance communication with your partner

Intensify and prolong orgasms

Cultivate a more sacred relationship with your own desires

Unlike mainstream sex, which often ends at climax, tantra teaches you to ride the waves of pleasure—sometimes for hours—bringing healing, balance, and joy.

Getting Started

You don’t need to be a yoga master or spiritual guru to start practicing tantric sex. It’s accessible, even in small steps. Here’s how to begin:

1. Slow Everything Down

Turn off the autopilot. Move slowly, breathe deeply, and make each touch intentional.

2. Create a Sacred Space

Light candles, play soft music, and treat your bedroom as a temple for pleasure.

3. Breathe Together

One of the simplest tantric techniques: sync your breath with your partner. It creates instant connection and calm.

4. Make Eye Contact

Gaze into each other’s eyes. This can feel intense—but it builds incredible emotional intimacy.

5. Focus on Energy, Not Orgasm

Let go of goals. Just explore. Let pleasure rise and fall naturally. If orgasm comes—great. If not—that’s sacred too.

 tantra is amazing with a partner—but it’s equally powerful for solo practice. Self-touch becomes self-worship. With awareness, breath, and intention, your own hands (or your favorite personal massager) can become tools for sacred pleasure.

 

Remember - Tantric sex is not about needing a partner it’s about deepening your relationship with your own sensual energy.

 

Let’s clear up a few common misunderstandings

“It’s too spiritual for me.”

Tantra can be spiritual—but it can also just be a sensual, mindful way to enjoy sex.

“It takes hours to do it right.”

While longer sessions are beautiful, even 10 minutes of mindful connection can be tantric.

“It’s only about avoiding orgasm.”

Not true! It’s about experiencing orgasm in new, expanded ways—not suppressing it
