The Tantra Experience

Why do we close our hearts, and what does it take to open them again?

In this episode of The Tantra Experience, Angel talks with Elia, a yoga teacher and Ayurvedic practitioner whose work helps women create devotional rhythms in their lives. Elia shares how meditation, yoga and Ayurveda found her, and why she now sees everything as love.

They talk about why so many of us are afraid to love as adults, what changes when you notice a trigger in your body before the old story takes over, and how Ayurveda links health to remembering who you truly are. Elia describes the spiritual path as a process of shedding and letting go. Angel shares how his work as a massage therapist led him to Tantra.

The last part of the conversation turns to relationships: one partner or many, and what it means to be honest with yourself when your desires contradict each other.
