Don Jon: A Transformation from Sex to Intimacy
For many people sexual and romantic education is derived a great deal from television, movies, and, particularly for men, pornography. Objectification, one-sidedness, and unrealistic expectations take hold resulting in a loss of intimacy and connection. The movie, "Don Jon," written, directed, and starred in by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, addresses this dilemma, shining light on these views and exploring what it actually means to be intimate and express love.

The spirit of femininity is generous, graceful, nurturing, supportive, sensitive, intuitive, and oriented towards love and care. Despite all of these wonderful attributes, feminine energy, especially as it pertains to sexuality, has been suppressed, condemned, and vilified on a global scale for thousands of years. It is no wonder, then, that so often we associate shame, fear, and guilt with sex and sexuality. Through reawakening our feminine energy, we can learn to celebrate our femininity in all its forms and bring greater joy and intimacy into our lives and with ourselves.

Clearing Up Those 'Blurred Lines'
"I hate these blurred lines." Robin Thicke certainly gets this point across in his new hit song, appropriately titled, "Blurred Lines." The song has been quite the rage since its July 30th debut and quickly climbed the charts to #1 within its first week. But once people started dancing, the question eventually popped up, "Hey, what is he talking about?" And thus began the controversy about the lyrics, the video, and what it all means in terms of the relationship between men and women.

Getting Intelligent Sexual intelligence gives people a glimpse through the doorway to their own power. When people come to our TantraNova workshops they arrive with clear intentions of things they want to work on, of what they want to change or improve on or expand into.

Find Intimacy: Master Your Breathing and Calm the Unending Chatter in Your Mind
Breath is the essence of life. From our first moments fresh from the womb until the last sigh of death we are breathing. Most of the time we breathe reflexive without thinking; inhaling and exhaling our way through morning routines, work, train rides, exercise, and sleep. Using the breath consciously as a tool is the first step to entering the mindful world of intimacy and love. When we are present with our breath we can reach a place of focus, stillness, and inner peace that allows us to go deeper into ourselves and our experiences.
