embracing your innate beauty and perfection
Sensing Inside
I love this:
We often look into our mind to know something, and so when we want to know ourselves, we often look into the mind for that also. But the mind is full of thoughts about what we want to know and never the thing itself. You will never find an apple or a lover or a sunset or anything in your mind, just thoughts about these things. And you will never find your true Self in the mind, just a lot of thoughts about the true Self. That is just what the mind is made of and so that is what you find in there.
What if you sense in your heart instead? I am not suggesting you think about what you might find in your heart. What if you actually sense the space inside your chest? What is actually here right now within the space of your body? It can be helpful to rest your hands over your chest, and then simply notice what is really present beneath your hands. No need to think much about it, just directly sense what is here.

Most of my clients raise one thing as being their major reason for struggling to have the kind of sexual connection that they would like. I wonder, if we did a survey on this, what would come out for those who are reading this? Stop for a minute, and think about what your answer would
Where do sexual imbalances come from?

We live in a world where sexual energy has been distorted, which creates manipulation, repression and a world of people who are unaware sexually and struggling spiritually. In the words of Tantric Master, Nityama, “Many people were coming to me wanting to develop their spirituality but what I discovered is they were generally shut down,

Another of the spiritual discourses that speak so deeply to my heart. This one is by a woman called Unmani: “Thought likes to think about the future and the past. To grasp hold of that that can’t be understood. To try to box and define things. Because that’s its nature. But what you are, beyond
Tantric Union

by Wahkeena Sitka Tidepool Ripple Tantra is about Union—union with love, orgasmic union; union with the divine. In these days where culturally we are scattered, distracted by television, drugs, celebrities and politics, overworked, overstressed, under-loved; consumers walking about disconnected from the person standing next to us—Union is not an experience we daily embrace. Many of

I see again why I”m such a net junky – there is so much out there online to feed and nourish my hunger and quest to understand more about Sacred Sexuality. And I love to share the treasures I find: For the past year I have been praying, sending my intention out to the universe,
Which way to go?

In line with something I said in a previous post, it can sometimes be difficult to work out who’s advice to follow. Who really knows? Will this “method” work? What are the guarantees? WHO CAN I TRUST!? I’ve realised again, that of all the things I’ve read and heard and been told about which way
Being good enough.

There is so much happening in my life, all the time, but I don’t often reflect it in the articles on this blog partly because the bulk of my readership are passers-by who drop in and leave again, most never to return. For those who return here, I would love to give you more regular
Why practice?

To make perfect. What is perfect? That which is. Life is perfect – we just don’t seem to want to believe it. Practicing leads you to discovering the perfection that we all are. Wow! In this case, practicing could be a little story about how we can train ourselves and our world through disciplined (eeeeeek!)
Who are we …?

Over the course of your lifetime, you have built a certain story about yourself. We spend a lot of energy keeping our inner stories hidden so that no-one else sees who we really are. We don’t believe that who we are is good enough for others expectations. And we want to please others. So we

I’ve recently discovered something called “The Work” by Byron Katie. It is a very simple method of self-inquiry which has brought me a complete release from the battle with my mind. All that needs to be done, is to question the mind. I now understand what is meant by saying that waking up is the
