“Find ecstasy within yourself. It is not out there. It is in your innermost flowering. The one you are looking for is YOU. You are the traveler and you are the destination” Osho
Our bodies are living Temples and deserve to be tended with loving care. Tantrik Ritual Bodywork, aka TRB combines Sacred Temple Bodywork ~ with various additional active tantrik principles. The intention of our Tantrik Ritual Bodywork sessions is to explore in a mutually dynamic & sacred interactive way. This is the Art & Beauty of Embodied Devotion. Workshop Certifications provided.
The world is hungry for more intimacy and connection. Not only with other people, but especially with themselves & their connection to Source. With Tantrik Ritual Bodywork, we provide a safe space for others to experience the type of intimacy and connection they so deeply desire. We hold space for them to cultivate a deeper relationship to themselves, other and to everything as a result.
Tantra is known for its vast number of practices, such as philosophical study, sorcery, divination, occultism, penance, taboo-breaking activities, meditation, devotion, Tantra Yoga, among others — and its Tantrik rituals and Tantrik ceremonies.
A ritual or ceremony can be described as a set of actions done in a prescribed order. Rituals and ceremonies (called Dikshas in India) are important in Tantra, notably as Tantrik initiation rites, but special ceremonial forms of worshiping or devotion are likewise practiced plenty — rituals like Linga & Yoni honoring and Maithuna(Union), or Shiva and Shakti Deity worshiping, and such. In our Temple we do things symbolically and never engage in actual sexual union.
In this Tantrik Ritual Bodywork experience, the recipient is a loving participant and together we embody Shiva & Shakti, God & Goddess, unveiling and mirroring our divine essence. We will play with tantrik yoga poses ~ beginning by opening our hearts through eye-gazing and dropping into a Ujai Ocean breath (slow deep breathing where you can hear the breath as it flows through the back of your throat), while sitting together in Yab-yum (lover's yoga pose).
After dropping into the moment, we will engage in conversation about how the session will unfold and any specific tantrik principles that you may wish to experience and learn from. Here I would like to express that our Temple's Tantrik Ritual Bodywork Sessions are more experiential than conversational, unless verbal coaching is specifically requested.
We will explain in the beginning how to follow the therapist's breath & gestures. And of course, we will use words when necessary! Yet, it's so nice to dissolve into essence, to escape the mind's constructs, to follow by touch, by tenderness, by intuition, by Spirit, by Love.
Tantra helps you get out of your head and into your body. Our TRB sessions are a Sensorium, awakening the five senses allowing you to be more present, to experience a heightened field of perception & awareness . These practices allows us to move out of the left brain, into the creative self and into a space of feeling that anything is possible.
“Tantra Yoga Entrainment” will be brought in to clear out the distractions of the mind. As the senses are activated, bringing presence into the body and moment, we work to balance and re-align energy flow, enhancing mind and body wellness. We do so by simultaneously employing: attention, intention, breath, mantra, mudra, movement, bhava(feeling, emotion, mood).
We allow ourselves to flow "By Her Grace" and trust where that current is taking us... For all good things are in the flow of our Divine Way in the play.
Essentially, a ritual is simply a set of actions that often includes symbolic and elemental components used ceremonially. Most rituals are meant to either symbolically or literally bring about some type of transformation in the recipient, deepening one's connection to self & Source, while bringing about a greater awakening. A sacred ritual celebrates and activates, this inner transformation in a ceremonial way, which serves as a reminder to yourself and the universe that you are ready to let go of that which is not serving your highest good and allows the new, true you to emerge.
After the opening ritual orientation, Tantrik Meditation & intention sharing, the magic unfolds in grace by following the sacred pulse. The practitioner’s skillful & intuitive touch guides the recipient into deep connection with self & Source, through rhythmic bodywork waves, flowing moves inspired by ancient Hawaiian Temple Bodywork styles, Swedish, and deep pressure techniques.
As channels for Holy Love, not only are we guiding a session but we are teaching as well. Through play we invite them deeper, as we dance with the energy thats alive in each moment. By being a clear channel and embodying the unique face of the Goddess that we are (or have chosen for the Ritual that day), we bless and bliss them up with our very presence! In this offering of service and granting blessings to others, we in turn are blessed. What you honor honors you. What you serve serves you.
By being a channel for the Fountains of Bliss to pour thru you, you are in turn purified, activated & blessed. Allow this current/channel/flow to nourish you. Allow the Ritual to be a playful sacred exploration and experience. Stay with the magic of the moment, connected to your essence, allowing ease and grace to flow through you naturally. That is the most important part of all.
Every moment from beginning to end is a Sacred Prayer-Dance-Ritual-Communion. Every moment is a guided “Integrated Tantra” Massage, moving vertically and horizontally, on a massage table, using therapeutic & sensual techniques, strong & light touch, with intention & by Her Grace (following the sacred pulse), and working with various entrainments & energy practices.
The Art of Intimate Communion requires the sensitivity of both the Dakini therapist & the client to be completely, intentionally present, the willingness to feel raw emotional vulnerability, the openness to explore the unknown, and the courage to let the genie out of the bottle. We have the powerful potential to completely transform the way we & our clients see the world and our place within it/as it. We hold up the “Mirror of the Dakini”. There is the opportunity of entering altered states of consciousness, where we may receive ecstatic visions and transmissions.
Let the genie out of the bottle, ask for what you want to receive. The Infinite Love of the Universe wants to play with you!
Tantra is a path home to truth; truth as Love. Truth as bliss.
Every day is a Ceremony.
