The interest in tantric sex is now on the rise in the Western World. Originating in the ancient Indian and Chinese practices and philosophy, tantric sex is slow and meditative, with its end goal not being orgasm but the enjoyment coming from the sexual act and the sensations that this sexual journey brings to the body. The movement of the sexual energy that takes place during the act brings healing, transformation, and enlightenment.

Tantric sex, however, requires intimacy between the partners. Without intimacy, sex hardly ever goes beyond being a physical, often barely mechanical, act that brings instant gratification. So how to prepare yourself and your partner for the deeper experience of tantric sex? My guest Anne Bland, the founder of SelfishlyHappyWoman.com and international love, relationship, and sex coach, and I will try to answer this and other questions related to tantra and sex in the today's episode.
