While many people may have heard of tantric sex there is still a cloud of mystery surrounding its roots as well as what benefits it may offer those who practice it. Tantric sex allows people to explore their sexuality in a deeper, more meaningful way than casual sex allows them to do. Following is some useful information on how to get started on your path towards a more fulfilling love life through the use of tantric sex.

What Is Tantric Sex?

Tantric sex dates back over 5000 years ago and was first practised in India. The word “tantra” means “to weave” in Sanskrit. This idea of “weaving” the different facets of sexuality and spirituality results in the act of tantric sex.

Tantric sex is a meditative practice. It is performed much more slowly and with the purposeful intention to expand each partner’s concept of mindfulness and spirituality. The focus is on foreplay. Orgasms are delayed to allow for a deeper connection. Those who practice tantric sex have also reported deeper, longer, and more powerful orgasms.

Is Tantric Sex Just About Having An Orgasm?

Even though people do experience powerful orgasms when taking part in tantric sex, the end goal is not about the orgasm. Rather, it is a celebration of sensuality and the human body. According to experts, tantric sex is beneficial for those suffering from body insecurity, energy blockage, and sexual trauma. Tantric sex can also reduce stress. For those who suffer from premature ejaculation, tantric sex can help them gain greater control over the timing of their sexual release. It can also help those who have never achieved an orgasm experience a strong, full orgasmic release.

Tantric Sex Tips

Tantric sex requires full consent between partners and a safe space to try new things. It can be awkward if you haven’t tried it before. Try not to worry about what is “normal” and what isn’t. Be kind to yourself and banish judgment.

Tantric sex is intimate and slow. The focus is on foreplay. Choose a place to practice where you won’t be distracted. There are a number of positions that you can try, including:

Lotus (Yab-yum): If you are new to tantric sex, this is a great beginner position. You both sit facing each other, sit on your partner’s thighs and intertwine your legs around your partner’s back. Stare into each other’s eyes.

Lotus Position

Penetrative intercourse is optional. Tantric sex is more about connection.

Remember: Even if you don’t achieve an orgasm, you are still at risk of catching an STI if you and your partner are not tested. So, before getting started on your journey with tantric sex be sure that you and your partner get tested, so you can fully relax and enjoy your experience together.
