The word Tantra can evoke a lot of different images.

It can seem exotic, esoteric, edgy, otherworldly.

There are a lot of conflicting messages that make it seem pretty complicated.

But my understanding of Tantra is quite simple.

Tantra is the awakening and expansion of the love that you are.

The art of embodying your love. 

It's not something you need to seek or strive for.

It's in you.

Tantra is the practice of remembering that you are love.

The practice of locating that love in your body.

And cultivating it like a garden.

Have you heard of the Taoist concept of Second Spring?

Omgdess, I think every woman needs to know about this!

Here are the Cliff Notes:

From the Taoist perspective midlife and menopause are called Second Spring; a spiritual & sexual rebirth.

Yep, I said spiritual and sexual.

Second Spring is a time of life when a woman comes home to the sacredness of her body, rejuvenates from the inside out and sets the stage for a vibrant third chapter.

She does this by embracing her sensuality and sexual energy as a spiritual practice. 

Like yoga.

Your sensuality is not frivolous, your pleasure is the portal into you living your best life.

Your sensuality is not frivolous.

Your sensual pleasure is the portal into you living your best life.

Your sexual energy is not just about sex.

It's pure gold.

It’s your foundational fuel to living a vibrant, joyful, purposeful, passionate life at any age.

Are you ready for your Second Spring?

I thought so:)

No time for pleasure?

This one's for you Bella!

It's sooo easy to run ourselves ragged.

And when we do we forget who we are. 

When we connect with our pleasure it lights the way home.

No matter what's going on in your life right now, honoring your sensuality and taking time for mindful pleasure will deeply serve you.

Pleasure is the portal.

It gives us access to our most noble qualities, rejuvenates us and gets us clear on our desires.

It literally allows us to shift our reality.

Pleasure gets us out of overthinking and stressing and into our zone of genius.

The zone of ease, calm and flow.

Pleasure is the missing link for so many women.

And so many women feel as though they can't find time for pleasure.

It can feel like a double bind.

Ever feel that way?

You're not alone.

And I've got the hack for you.

Compassion is a beautiful human quality.

It opens us into deeper experiences of love, intimacy and gratitude.

Receiving compassion from others can be just the medicine we need when things get tough.

Compassion feels good in the body and like a balm to the soul.

To give it and to receive it elevates us into the realm of human spirit.

When compassion enters the room it's like a deep exhale.

And a candle in the dark.

When someone offers us true compassion we feel seen.

Like we matter.

We feel connected.

We feel cared for.

Compassion soothes the loneliness of life.

And brings a sense of camaraderie and belonging.

We shift out of fear and survival mode and relax into safety, healing and recovery.

Compassion is powerful medicine.

It brings out some of our best qualities.

Studies have shown that compassion is a natural human instinct.

That it's vital for good health; the survival of our species even.

And yet it can be so challenging to gift it to ourselves.

Am I right?

What if we could get better at it?

Let's explore.

We all know that feeling...

Uncomfortably numb.

We're so good at showing up and functioning in the most stressful and chaotic circumstances. 

Most women I know are masters at it.

While this strategy of overriding our feelings and our bodies to do what needs to be done helps us adapt and survive, it's not a long term solution.

When we go numb, we can't selectively numb.

And there's a cost.

A significant cost.

To live our lives to the fullest, we need ways of breaking the cycle.

We need pleasure.

Happy Mother’s Day weekend!

On the one hand, it’s a beautiful celebration of motherhood and on the other… well, it can bring up a lot.

It’s layered.

It’s complex. 

What I’ve found to be incredibly healing and empowering on my own journey as a woman, as a daughter and as a mother is to connect with the true power of mother.

The Creatrix

The Great Mother within.

The womb.

The womb is not just about fertility.

This goes far beyond the biomedical definition of Uterus.

The womb is our chalice; our personal Holy Grail, our source of our creative life force and personal power.

The womb by design can be a portal into boundless bliss and ecstasy.

And our chief source of confidence in our intuition and oracular guidance.

But it often doesn’t feel that way.

The good news is that we can change that.

When we clear the stored emotion, stress and trauma (of course it’s generational) we reclaim the true radiance of the womb; the Creatrix.

I’ve got a simple practice to help you do exactly that.

Let's dive in!

Drama.

It's everywhere.

It's expensive.

It's exhausting.

It's more addictive than caffeine. 

And the crash is worse too.

Society runs on drama more than it runs on Dunkin.

And it can run us into the ground.

While drama is a part of life, it can be less so in yours.

We can take the reins.

Want my favorite way to pattern disrupt this madness?

I've got you!

Here's a link to the Dr. Zach Bush episode I mentioned

Oy!

The voice of the Inner Critic.

We can so easily get duped into believing the bs, can't we?

Nothing kills our joy and pleasure more quickly than unsolicited feedback from the Saboteur within.

We tend to be our own worst enemy.

And I'm yet to meet a woman who is immune.

What we need here is a strategy.

A simple, effective strategy to seduce that Inner Critic and get back to the business of living the life you came here to live.

That's what this episode is all about.

Here I'll share with you:

• Who is the Inner Critic?
• Why it's crucial to address this
• My own Inner Critic story
• My simple 4-step formula to handle this situation in a light-hearted and deeply feminine way

Your intuition is gold.

And it's so unique to you and you alone.

Without a reliable connect to your inner wisdom you can easily lose the plot on your precious life.

Why you're here.

What you came here to express and create.

What the next step is for you on this spiraling journey.

We live in exciting times

And incredibly noisy times.

It can be challenging to cut through the din and tune into the muse within.

Even more challenging to trust that inner knowing when we need it most.

Having a clear, reliable navigational system is key to you living the life you came here to live.

And what I want you to know is that your sensuality is the ultimate hack for cultivating that.

It can bring you in fast.

I see it it all the time.
