Tantric Women in Relationship

Posted on Oct 13th, 2009 by Charu : Tantrika Charu

Tantric Women in Relationship
FREE Telesummit


The goal of this series is to explore how the wisdom of Tantra translates into modern relationships.  It is intended to inspire both women who are in relationship and those who are not by opening their eyes to the possibilities.   I was moved to do this series because of my own awakenings and challenges in relationship. 

Through Tantra I have seen and experienced possibilities between two people that are completely out of the context of our societies model for relationship.  This delights me and it also raises new questions.  I see this series as paving a new path of possibilities for women who have seen only limited openings in relationship and also women like me who are dedicated to their personal practice, dedicated to living intimacy and longing for sisters on the journey.

I often find myself imagining that there is someone who is out there who has ‘figured it all out', I would love for all of us to talk openly about the riches that we experience, what we know is available, as well as the unenlightened moments where relationship can reveal harsh truths that we had safely hidden from ourselves.

Ultimately, I have found relationship to be my greatest teacher.  It has the power to expose me completely, to reveal the best of myself and open doorways to awakening that I have not felt anywhere else... it also has the power to humble me and highlight the parts of me that are controlling, judgmental, tight, etc.  I want to share with other women the power of this path of love.

In love,
Charu

Best Date Night Ever

Posted on Oct 13th, 2009 by Charu : Tantrika Charu

It's that time again, THIS SUNDAY 10.18.09 is the next Easiest & Best Date-Night Ever! Sign up NOW because the Early Bird ends TONIGHT!  click here to register.  See below for more information.


I hope to see you there and I wanted to share with you a very special, sensual ritual that will prepare you for a very intimate night together... I recommend doing this as a preparation for the event if you can make it, but even on it's own it is pretty exceptional.


Sensual Bathing Ritual

 (once you have tried this ritual, I would love to hear about your experience!  Post it on my facebook fan-page by clicking here)

What I love about this ritual is that it is so easy to do and so sweet and rewarding.  No matter how much stress you have been under or how challenged you have felt in your relationship you will find yourself feeling tender and open to your love after this.

In India, this ritual is performed before any sacred ceremony.  It is seen as a cleansing process so that you enter into the ceremony new and available to be present.  For our modern lives, this can be a valuable tool to cleanse ourselves from the day so that we can be fully present to our partnership.


What you will need:

  1. epsom salts (so easy, you can buy them for a couple of bucks at your local drugstore) *ritual can be done without this
  2. essential oils (I like lavendar or some kind of citrus...) *ritual can be done without this
  3. if you can't find either of the above, you can do this with simply your favorite liquid soap as bubble bath to add that sensual atmosphere
  4. a tupperware pitcher OR any shape container (unbreakable)
  5. a soft sponge OR washcloth
  6. liquid soap
  7. candles
  8. sensual music (check out www.myspace.com/aykannasound)

*you can add additional creative elements if you are inspired... rose petals and incense are always nice ;)

Now, the fun part.  There are a couple of different ways to do this:

1. one partner can get in the tub to receive and the other can sit outside the tub to give (with no exchange, just as a gift of love)

OR

2. both partners can squeeze into the tub together

Getting Started:

I recommend beginning by synchronizing the breath.

If you are both in the tub together, have the woman sit in front of the man, her back to his chest.  He can wrap his hands around her waist and rest them on her belly.

If one partner is outside the tub, he/she can place their hands on either side of the receiving partner's heart.

Then begin to inhale together feeling the belly filling up like a balloon and exhale together.  Continue this practice for 2-5 minutes.  This will bring your bodies into harmony and you will become even more sensitive to one another's touch.

Moving on...

Now the giving partner will lather up the receiver.  Once the receiver's body is soapy and slippery, use this to glide your hands over their skin, and massage in any way that feels good to you.

Gently guide the receiver to move so that you can soap up their entire body.

Once you have lathered and massaged them lovingly, take your Tupperware pitcher and use it to pour warm water over the receiver's body, rinsing and cleansing them.  You can do this several times because the feel of the warm water pouring over their body will be a real highlight of the experience.

Now that they are rinsed off, you will either switch partners OR have the receiving partner stand and bring them a warm towel.  Wrap the towel around them and pat them dry. 

As the receiver, allow yourself to relax completely and enjoy being pampered!

Ready for love...

Now it's time to leisurely dress and prepare to attend The Easiest & Best Date-Night with Charu to continue your evening of deepening and exploration. ;)

If you can't make it to the event, this is a great moment to spend some more quality time together massaging one another, making love, enjoying each other in any way that feels good for you.

Enjoy!

--------------------------------


...here is what some other couples have shared:


"Finding tantra was like finding a long lost friend, it felt very natural and normal for my boyfriend and I to be with one another in a more sensitive, present, meditative, energetic, and exploratory way but no one had given us permission before. It was in us! But we needed someone to show us the way.


We had a huge break through after just one meeting. Not just huge - gigantic!

Our relationship changed forever after just one session. The work touched us so deeply, so quickly, so powerfully, we could not believe it."

~Brooke

I am so excited to be consistently showing up with new things to share with our community. Here is the latest...just for women (don't worry men, yours is coming early next year!):  

On Sept 17th at 12:30 PM PT
, I am conducting a live teleclasss during which I will share 'How to Unlock Your Potential for Pleasure OVERNIGHT and Re-discover Richness & Passion in Your Relationship to Yourself, Your Loved Ones & Your Life!'
 
As many of you know, I have dedicated my life to the study and practice of Tantra. I have seen the Tantric practices simply, almost magically transform the lives and relationships of many, many people. You will learn the tools which have been practiced for thousands of years to simply and effectively tune into the deep wisdom of the body and effortlessly allow that wisdom become a guiding force in your life.   

On the 75-minute call, you'll discover:
 
* The exact tools you can use immediately to clear blocks in your body and awaken a flow of orgasmic energy accessible to you in EVERY moment....in just one Tantra session I have seen these tools; save couples relationships, free women from pain or numbness during intercourse, shift body-image issues, and literally awaken the beauty in every woman I have shared them with.   * How these practices will easily break through deep-rooted habitual patterns - in a way that will integrate shifts and changes into your life immediately - something that many therapists & healers are unaware of   * How to uncover an inner wisdom that has been all but lost in our modern culture. Yes, right now you have untapped information you aren't even aware of...After this call, you'll know what reveals this wisdom and how to live with ease, heal your body and have better sex by 'tuning in' to it.  
* How to move beyond your limited experience of pleasure. Whether you have never experienced orgasm before or you consider yourself to be especially sexually savvy, what is possible within your body is rarely understood or experienced in our modern times  
* The very best part of unlocking your potential for pleasure has very little to do with the great sex you will be having (on your own or with a partner) - that is the gravy - the best part is the fulfillment, the confidence, the aliveness and the love you experience within yourself   If you're intrigued and want to discover "How to Unlock Your Potential for Pleasure OVERNIGHT and Re-discover Richness & Passion in Your Relationship to Yourself, Your Loved Ones & Your Life!" register right now by clicking this link:

Dear Friends,

I can hear you longing for more out of life, wanting to feel more and become more intimate and authentic with yourself and those you love.  Longing to rediscover the nourishment that life gives you when you are allowing love in.  Not knowing how to tap into that pleasure and delight that graces us when we first fall in love... 

I have a secret for you...

You are not the first to long for this, and your capacity to receive it is limited as long as you continue to reach outside yourself to fulfill it. This is what you are made of, you have simply forgotten.  Tantra continues to remind me of this and lead me to the nectar of love that I long for.  Tantra points me toward the center of myself where I am bathed in this nectar.  As I immerse myself in it, it awakens all around me, in everyone I know and I am blessed with seeing beyond the flaws, beyond the personality, and into the heart of man and woman. 

This world that we live in is rich and alive.  Ripe and delicious.  So why are we starving inside? 

I created this event for you, you with your insatiable (and perhaps secret) longing, you who doesn't feel truly fulfilled even though you have done everything 'right'... here I will give you the tools to drink from the well of nectar within you, here you will discover that you are not alone.  Here is where everything changes.

I must warn you, if you are committed to your suffering, or even having a romance with it, this may not be the event for you.  The Evening of Awakening  is for those who are willing to let go of the unhealthy habits that have brought them comfort, and are ready to live a life in which there is nothing to hold on to. 

It is this very 'holding on' to what we think we want that keeps us from receiving the joy and abundance that is available to us. It creates stagnation and blocks the natural flow of life, and we find that even when we appear to be holding on to something beautiful and fulfilling, it looses its luster while it is held within our grasp. 

This new life is both terrifying and invigorating. It is the life you have been dreaming of. A dynamic life of freedom and adventure alongside devotion and commitment. A powerful, bold and authentic life where you are so attuned to your deepest desires that you find them becoming your reality, effortlessly.

Those of you who are ready for this know that I am talking to you, even if you are scared, you can feel my words resonate in your body.  Something has been ignited.  Some part of you is hearing a call that you have been waiting for your whole life... is today the day you will say yes? 

What are you waiting for?

in love,

Charu

One Woman's Experience:

"My experience at the Last Puja was wonderful. I had a moment where I was partnered with a man I did not know. Normally I feel vulnerable, exposed, susceptible to danger when I am working with someone new. However this time, I felt so safe, so open in my entire being. My body felt so safe with this man, and I had never felt that way ever in my life. It was just so amazing that feeling this safe is actually possible. I'm so excited to explore more."

~Janet


One Man's Experience:

"Last night was a revelation. I see what is possible within my relationships and interactions. I want more. One truly remarkable thing that I experienced was when I got home and went to sleep. I woke up at 3:17 AM and I was literally vibrating. I can't say that I woke up, but I was absolutely conscious. It's difficult to describe, I almost can't find the words. Thanks for all you do."

Tantra Puja Ritual

Posted on Jul 3rd, 2009 by Charu : Tantrika Charu
Charu
What is a Tantra Puja?

A Puja is a prayer. In Tantra, our prayer is recognizing the divine in every human being, our temple is the body. In a Puja ritual each man will have the opportunity to partner with each woman for a simple exercise or meditation. The Tantric meditations use breath, movement, sound, and guided meditation to enrich each meeting throughout the ceremony. Attending Couples may choose to work solely with each other.

*there is no nudity or sexual contact in the class
