Explore Kink: A Guide for Conscious Newbies

Sexuality Uncategorized

It always feels a bit fun to talk about getting kinky! It brings in a little rush of excitement and a hint of danger. But there’s much more to it than just being naughty.

Kink can be a consensual, healthy, and fun way for couples to explore their sexuality and deepen their intimacy. By exploring kink together, couples can build trust, improve communication, and discover new aspects of their sexuality they may not have felt comfortable discussing before.

For those who have experienced trauma or abuse, kink play can also be therapeutic. Engaging in consensual and safe kink activities can help them reclaim their sense of agency and control over their bodies and sexuality.

Plus, kink can bring more novelty and excitement into a couple’s sex life, helping you dispel boredom and break out of sexual ruts. It’s a fun and playful way to explore different fantasies and desires.

But remember, healthy kink play requires clear communication, consent, and a commitment to safety. Couples interested in exploring kink should do so responsibly and informedly, seeking resources and education to make sure their play is safe and consensual for both partners.

Common Themes in Kink

One of the beautiful things about kink is that there’s no one right way to do it. It’s all about getting creative and exploring what works for you and your partner.

Kink is a broad term that encompasses a wide range of sexual practices and preferences often considered outside mainstream sexual norms.

Here are just a few aspects of kink you can explore:

●  BDSM (Bondage, Discipline, Dominance, Submission, Sadism, and Masochism): Involves power dynamics, physical restraint, and a range of physical and psychological sensations.

●  Fetishism: Sexual attraction to specific objects or body parts, such as feet, latex, or leather.

●  Role-playing: Creating scenarios or characters outside everyday experience, like doctor and patient, teacher and student, or master and slave.

●  Exhibitionism and Voyeurism: Exhibitionism involves exposing oneself sexually in front of others, while voyeurism involves watching others engage in sexual activity.

●  Sensory Play: Using different sensations like touch, sound, or temperature to enhance sexual pleasure.

●  Body Modification: Altering the body for sexual or aesthetic purposes, such as piercings, tattoos, or body hair removal.

Tips for Beginners

If you’re a beginner interested in exploring kink, you have quite an exciting and rewarding journey ahead!

Take it slow and steady, and savor the shared journey. Here are some recommendations to keep in mind:

  1. Communicate Clearly with Your Partner: Have an open and honest conversation about your interests, limits, and boundaries. Discuss what you are comfortable with, what you’d like to try, and what is off-limits.
  2. Start Slowly and Gradually: Begin with less intense kink activities and, if desired, build up to more advanced practices. This helps grow trust and allows you to explore your interests at a comfortable pace.
  3. Educate Yourself: Learn about the risks and safety protocols involved. Read books, attend workshops, or seek information online about best practices and potential risks.
  4. Use Safe Words and Signals: Agree on a safe word or signal to communicate if something becomes too intense or uncomfortable.
  5. Prioritise Safety: Use appropriate safety equipment and take precautions to avoid injury or harm.
  6. Be Respectful: Respect your partner’s limits and boundaries, and avoid pressuring them to do anything they are not comfortable with.

Consent in Kink

Consent is the cornerstone of a healthy sexual relationship.

It’s all about being open and transparent about your limits, needs, and desires, and making space to hear about the needs, limits, and desires of your partner. Expressing and honoring one anothers’ boundaries.

Consent is necessary for healthy sexual play, and it can be given or taken back at any moment.

Implied consent refers to nonverbal consent communicated through body language or other cues, while explicit consent is clearly and verbally communicated.

Relying solely on implied consent can be risky, as it’s difficult to accurately interpret nonverbal cues. Explicit communication of consent is the safest and most reliable way to make sure all parties are comfortable throughout the experience.

Discuss limits and boundaries beforehand, use safe words or signals during the activity, and regularly check in to ensure everyone is still comfortable and consenting.

When Not to Engage in Kink

There’s a time and a place for everything.

While kink play can be fun and offer loads of benefits, there are some situations when it may not be appropriate or safe:

  1. Under the Influence of Drugs or Alcohol: Impaired judgment increases the risk of harm or injury.
  2. Feeling Emotionally or Physically Unwell: Kink play requires physical and emotional energy, and being unwell can make it unsafe or unenjoyable.
  3. Experiencing Significant Stress or Emotional Distress: Stress or emotional distress can impact the ability to engage safely and enjoyably.
  4. Not Fully Informed or Prepared: Understanding safety and risk management is essential. Be informed about best practices and potential risks.
  5. Not Fully Consenting: Consent is crucial. If anyone feels pressured, coerced, or uncomfortable, they should not engage in kink play.

Kink and Systems of Oppression

Exploring our sexuality is one beautiful way to reclaim our freedom.

Each of us has experienced societal judgment and oppression in some form. We follow up on these moments of social pain with an unconscious tendency to repress our impulses, desires, and feelings.

So, when we give ourselves permission to explore our desires, it tends to crack us open. The repression loosens a bit, and we get in contact with more of our vital energy.

Kink play explores these taboo areas, helping us to release shame and open to natural excitement.

And since our personal experiences reflect our societal context, certain themes in kink can reflect larger systems of oppression in everyday life:

●  Power Dynamics: Reflect societal power imbalances based on gender, race, or class.

●  Objectification: Reflects how people are often reduced to their physical appearance or  treated as objects.

●  Pain: While consensual pain can be enjoyable, it’s important to recognise its use as a tool of oppression in society.

●  Taboo or Forbidden Acts: Some taboos are rooted in oppressive societal norms. Engaging in kink doesn’t necessarily perpetuate systems of oppression, but healthy kink does

require a critical awareness of these underlying societal dynamics.

Kinky Toys for Beginners

There’s so much to explore, and it’s best to start by talking about it.

It can be quite fun to speak with a partner about what you feel drawn to and what ideas offer a bit of a rush.

From there, ease into it. Bring one new toy or one fresh element of play at a time, savoring the new experience.

Beginners should start with simple and safe kinky toys:

●  Blindfolds: Add sensory deprivation using a simple scarf or sleep mask.

●  Handcuffs or Restraints: Explore bondage play safely with basic handcuffs or restraints.

●  Floggers or Paddles: Use lighter-weight and softer materials like suede floggers or padded paddles.

●  Nipple Clamps: Start with adjustable clamps for controlled sensation.

●  Vibrators: Various types, such as bullet vibrators, wand vibrators, and rabbit vibrators, can be fun additions to kink play.

And remember that in the end, it’s all about enjoying spicy, exciting moments with your partner. Each toy simply adds a unique quality or sensation to your shared journey.

Learning from a Professional Dominatrix

If you are single and would like to explore kink, one of the best ways of going about it is by connecting with a skilled dominatrix.

The art of the dominatrix is aimed at helping you break down inner barriers and connect with the deeper, more authentic pleasure response. Helping you to allow more of yourself to come forth in presence and vibrant engagement with the world.

Learning about kink under the guidance of a professional dominatrix offers several benefits:

●  Expertise: Pro-dominatrices are highly skilled in various kink activities and offer expert guidance on techniques, safety, and risk management.

●  Safety: Prioritise safety in all sessions, providing guidance on safe practices and emergency procedures.

●  Communication: Facilitate clear communication between partners and establish a safe and consensual environment.

●  Empowerment: Offer a non-judgmental environment for exploring kinks, fostering self-awareness and acceptance.

●  Education: Provide resources on kink and BDSM, including terminology & best practices. So, if you’d like to know more about kink, tantra, or the combination of the two, feel free to reach

out. I’m happy to answer any questions you may have.

And, for those who would like to explore firsthand, I offer bondassage sessions that emphasise tantric principles and conscious kink. Delighted to serve.

Exploring Tantra: Edging for Deeper Intimacy

Uncategorized

In the realm of intimate relationships, few experiences match the profound connection and blissful joy of truly fulfilling lovemaking.

But, in our fast paced world, this profound connection is often rushed, leaving both partners yearning for deeper satisfaction. It’s a scenario familiar to many: the race to climax, the hurried release, and the missed opportunities for profound intimacy and ecstasy.

But let’s imagine a different scenario—a lovemaking experience where time slows down, where sensations are savoured, and where pleasure reaches heights previously unimaginable.

This is the promise of edging and tantra—a journey into the depths of sensual exploration and heightened sexual awareness.

The Art of Edging: Mastery Over Orgasm

At its essence, edging is the practice of approaching the brink of orgasm and then deliberately pulling back, repeatedly, to delay climax.

Edging isn’t just about prolonging pleasure (although it’s pretty amazing for that!). It’s also a pathway to mastering one’s own sexual responses and enhancing overall satisfaction.

How Edging Works

Imagine this: instead of rushing headlong towards orgasm, you and your partner embark on a journey of discovery. You engage in intimate play, allowing arousal to build steadily.

As you near the peak of pleasure, you ease off, savoring the sensations, and allowing the intensity to ebb.

This cycle repeats, each time bringing you closer to the edge, until finally, when the time is right, you allow yourself to tip over into a climax that defies description—a toe-curling, body-shaking release of ecstasy.

Benefits of Edging

The benefits of edging extend far beyond the bedroom.

For men, it offers greater control over ejaculation, leading to prolonged sexual encounters and heightened pleasure for both partners.

It encourages mindfulness and deepens intimacy as partners learn to synchronise their rhythms and respond to each other’s cues.

For women, edging enhances arousal, intensifies orgasms, and deepens the connection with their own bodies and their partners.

Edging in Practice

Practicing edging requires patience and communication. It involves tuning into your body’s signals, understanding your arousal patterns, and learning to regulate them consciously.

Through this practice, you can enhance your sexual experience and cultivate a deeper appreciation for the nuances of pleasure and intimacy.

Tantra: Beyond Sexual Technique

While edging focuses on the physical aspect of pleasure, tantra expands the horizon to encompass spiritual and emotional dimensions of intimacy.

Originating from ancient Eastern traditions, tantra is a holistic practice that works with sexual energy as a pathway to spiritual awakening and personal growth.

Understanding Tantra

Tantra is often misunderstood in popular culture as mere sexual technique. It’s not just about sex, but it can take our sexual play to new heights.

Tantra is a profound spiritual discipline that invites practitioners to embrace their bodies, emotions, and desires without judgment, cultivating a deep connection to oneself and one’s partner.

Central to tantra is the belief that sexual energy, when harnessed consciously, can lead to higher states of consciousness and profound spiritual experiences.

Principles of Tantric Sex

In tantric lovemaking, the focus shifts from achieving orgasm to experiencing the journey of arousal and connection. Partners engage in slow, deliberate movements, synchronised breathing, and mindful touch.

This approach allows sexual energy to flow freely throughout the body, expanding beyond genital pleasure to move through the entire being.

The Role of Breath and Presence

Integral to tantric practice is the synchronisation of breath between partners—a practice known as ‘conscious breathing.’

Conscious Breathing deepens physical intimacy and brings about both emotional and energetic alignment.

By staying present in the moment and remaining attuned to each other’s needs, partners create a harmonious dance of energy, where pleasure becomes a shared experience of mutual discovery and fulfillment.

Integrating Edging and Tantra: A Path to Deeper Connection

Combining edging with tantric principles amplifies the transformative potential of both practices. Edging enhances orgasmic control and prolongs pleasure, while tantra provides a framework for spiritual and emotional connection.

Together, they offer couples a pathway to profound intimacy, where every touch, every breath, becomes an expression of love and mindfulness.

Practices for Couples

For couples embarking on this journey, practices may include:

●  Shared Breathwork: Sit facing each other, synchronise your breath, and maintain eye contact. As you inhale and exhale together, feel the energy flow between you.

●  Slow and Sensual Touch: Explore each other’s bodies with mindful touch, focusing on sensations rather than goals. Allow arousal to build gradually, pausing to savor moments of heightened pleasure.

●  Mutual Edging: Alternate roles as giver and receiver in edging exercises. Communicate openly about arousal levels and desires, allowing each partner to guide the experience.

●  Energetic Awareness: Visualize and feel sexual energy circulating throughout your bodies. Imagine it flowing from your genitals to your heart, deepening emotional intimacy and connection.

Beyond the Bedroom: Integrating Tantra into Daily Life

The benefits of tantric and edging practices extend beyond sexual intimacy. By cultivating awareness of your body, emotions, and energy, you can experience:

●  Enhanced Emotional Intimacy: Deepened understanding and empathy for your partner’s desires and needs.

●  Heightened Sensuality: Increased sensitivity to touch, taste, smell, and other sensory experiences.

●  Spiritual Connection: A sense of oneness with your partner and the universe, fostering a deeper spiritual bond.

●  Heightened Sensuality: Increased sensitivity to touch, taste, smell, and other sensory experiences.

Daily Rituals

Integrate tantric principles into your daily routine to nurture intimacy and connection:

●  Morning Rituals: Start the day with shared meditation or gentle touch, setting intentions for love and presence.

●  Mindful Communication: Practice active listening and authentic expression of desires and feelings.

●  Sacred Moments: Create rituals of connection, such as shared baths, sensual massages, or quiet moments of reflection together.

Embracing the Path of Tantra and Edging

In a world often focused on instant gratification, tantra and edging invite us to slow down, savour the journey, and explore the depths of our being. They offer a pathway to profound intimacy, where pleasure becomes a gateway to spiritual awakening and personal growth.

By embracing these practices with openness and curiosity, couples can transform their lovemaking into a sacred dance of energy and connection. Each moment becomes an opportunity for deeper understanding, heightened pleasure, and a more profound experience of love.

So, dear reader, as you embark on this journey of exploration, remember: the path of tantra and edging is not just about sexual technique—it’s a journey into the heart of intimacy, where every touch, every breath, becomes a celebration of love and consciousness.

Embrace the beauty of slow, intentional lovemaking. Explore the depths of your desires and the boundless possibilities of connection. And may your journey be filled with moments of ecstasy, discovery, and profound transformation.

In Gratitude, Taranga

Massage Is An Investment, Not An Extravagance

Uncategorized

What’s the return of an investment in yourself?

Massage therapy is often seen as a luxury reserved for the wealthy or a posh treat for special occasions. But it’s time to reframe this perception and recognise massage therapy as an investment in your overall health and well being.

Massage therapy involves the manipulation of soft tissues in the body, including muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. The benefits go far beyond simply feeling relaxed and pampered. Massage has also been shown to support both physical and mental health in many ways.

First and foremost, massage therapy can help alleviate physical pain and discomfort. Whether you suffer from chronic pain conditions such as fibromyalgia or arthritis, or you experience occasional soreness and stiffness from sitting at a desk all day, massage therapy can help. Massage therapists are trained to identify areas of tension and use specialized techniques to help release tight muscles, reduce inflammation, and increase circulation.

It doesn’t stop at relieving pain. Massage therapy can also improve your overall physical function. Regular massages can help increase flexibility, range of motion, and joint mobility, making it easier for you to perform everyday tasks such as bending, reaching, and lifting. Massage therapy can also improve your posture and balance, which reduces your risk of falls and other injuries.

Beyond the physical benefits, massage therapy can also have a significant impact on your mental health. Stress and anxiety are increasingly common in our fast-paced, high-pressure world, and massage therapy can be a powerful tool for managing these feelings. Massage has been shown to reduce cortisol, the hormone associated with stress, while increasing levels of dopamine and serotonin, which are associated with feelings of happiness and well-being.

With all of these benefits, it’s clear that massage therapy is not an extravagance. Just the opposite! Regular massage is a wise investment in your overall health and well-being!

So, how can you make the most of your investment?

First, it’s important to find a qualified and experienced massage therapist. Look for a therapist who is licensed, trained in the specific techniques that are best suited to your needs, and has a track record of success. You should also consider factors such as location, price, and scheduling flexibility to ensure that you can easily fit massages into your busy schedule.

Second, don’t be afraid to communicate with your massage therapist. Let them know what areas of your body are causing you discomfort or tension, and ask them to adjust their techniques accordingly. If you prefer a lighter or deeper pressure, or if you have any injuries or health conditions that need to be taken into account, be sure to let your therapist know.

Finally, consider making massage therapy a regular part of your self-care routine. Just like eating well and exercising regularly, regular massages can have a cumulative effect, helping you maintain physical and mental well-being over time. Whether you schedule a weekly or monthly massage, or simply make it a priority to book a massage whenever you feel stressed or in pain, making massage therapy a regular habit can help you get the most out of your investment.

How about that? By giving back to our body regularly, we can get healthier and enjoy our body more. By making massage therapy a regular part of your self-care routine, you can reap the physical and mental benefits of this powerful healing practice for years to come.

In gratitude,

Taranga

Learning to Love Your Unique Body

Uncategorized

Hey folks.

In today’s society, we are constantly bombarded with images of what the “perfect” body looks like. We get it everywhere, from social media to magazines and advertisements. It’s hard not to feel pressure to conform to these unrealistic beauty standards. But it’s important to remember that there is no such thing as a perfect body and that our differences make us beautiful.

Learning to love your unique body is not always easy, but it’s a journey worth taking. Here are some tips to help you along the way:

Embrace Your Flaws

Instead of focusing on your flaws and imperfections, try to embrace them. They are what make you unique and beautiful, exactly the person that you are. No one is perfect, and that’s okay. Remember that everyone has flaws, and it’s these imperfections that make us human.

Practice Self-Care

Taking care of your body is a great way to show it love and appreciation. Whether it’s through exercise, a healthy diet, or pampering yourself with a relaxing bath or massage, self-care can help you feel more confident and comfortable in your own skin.

Surround Yourself with Positive Influences

Surrounding yourself with positive influences can help you develop a more positive attitude towards your body. This can be as simple as following body-positive social media accounts, reading books and articles that promote self-love, or spending time with people who make you feel good about yourself.

Stop Comparing Yourself to Others

Comparing yourself to others is a surefire way to make yourself feel inadequate. Instead of focusing on how you measure up to others, focus on your own unique qualities and strengths. Remember that everyone’s journey is different, and what works for someone else may not work for you.

Challenge Negative Self-Talk

We all have that little voice in our head that tells us we’re not good enough. It’s important to challenge this negative self-talk and replace it with positive affirmations. Instead of criticizing yourself, try to focus on your strengths and accomplishments.

Celebrate Your Body

Celebrate your body for all that it does for you. Instead of criticizing your body for what it lacks, focus on what it can do. Whether it’s running a marathon, hiking a mountain, or simply getting out of bed in the morning, your body is capable of amazing things.

Learning to love your unique body is a journey, and it’s not always easy. But the more we love our body, the better it feels. And when we feel better, we look better too. Remember, your body is unique and beautiful, and you deserve to love it just the way it is.

In gratitude,

Taranga

 

God Bless Queen-Mistress Camilla!

Uncategorized

I just wanted to share this small blog about a HUGE topic!

Last week’s coronation of Charles and Camilla was an amazing move for her. In a long-awaited moment, she was transformed in the public eye from Mistress to Queen.

What a gigantic leap, hey? And good for her, she deserves it!

We all know she would have been married to Charles in the first place had it not been for the wicked Mother. (Sorry, dearly departed Queen Elizabeth.)

But let’s be real for a moment…

It’s a huge step for all sex workers of the world and all those mistresses tucked away. It’s not easy for us to step into the light with ease and diplomacy. Camilla has led the way for us all and I love her for that.

Those of us called to sexuality work are faced with heavy stigmas, misunderstandings, and just baseline ignorance around our chosen field. People judge, especially when they don’t understand.

The good news is that the world is changing a little bit every day, and our generation is blessed to see things that our parents’ generation could never imagine.

Enter Camilla, long-time public mistress of Charles, now married and alongside him as Queen of England.

Camilla began as a commoner and her affair with Charles was a source of scandal and tabloid headlines in the late 90’s.

Their relationship stretches back for more than fifty years, and throughout it all, Camilla has been the perfect mistress: supportive, constant, never made a fuss.

By 2005, they were married. And this year, she ascended to the loftiest position in British royalty. (King is good, but Queen and Country have our hearts.)

Some would call it luck. But the truth is, she’s served deeply, and she deserves this position! Good on you, Camilla!

Her journey is an inspiration to all mistresses and for all of us who do work in sexuality. It’s a push to step into the light and recognize the importance – and the beauty! – of what we offer.

Camilla’s success shows us that we can stop judging ourselves preemptively and begin to teach people a new way to perceive this work, clearly, confidently, and in deep integrity.

It also shows us that anyone can change their life path – at any time – and not be ashamed or persecuted for their past life decisions and their personal journey.

Love ya, Camilla! You go girl! 

Better Living Through Sex

Uncategorized

Anytime is a beautiful time to reflect on what we’re doing to keep ourselves healthy, aware, and alive to all the sensual elements that are here for us to experience. Now is the perfect time to offer a reminder of some things we can do to keep ourselves active and ready for anything that comes our way. 

A healthy sex life offers more than just heightened intimacy and pleasure. We are sensual beings and every aspect of our lives is connected to each other. It’s no secret, sex feels good. We’ve all(well maybe most) have engaged in sexual activity with another. The touch, feel, and stimulation we receive from another brings more happiness to our lives than you think. It also offers huge benefits for both mind and body. Here are just a few: 

1. Sex is great for the heart 

Sex has great health benefits for the heart and circulatory system. It can lower blood pressure, strengthen the heart, and may reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. When we orgasm we release happy chemicals that help our overall well-being. 

2. A healthy sex life boosts the immune system 

Regular sex can raise your levels of antibodies and improve your general resistance to illness. Aren’t our bodies amazing It’s amazing the things our body can do if we give it what it needs! Regular sex also improves sleep and lowers stress and anxiety. 

3. Sex lowers stress levels 

I know this was addressed in the last point, but it’s worth mentioning again. Stress causes great confusion in the mind and body. So would it surprise you that stress kills people daily? Stress attacks our bodies in more ways than you can imagine. 

High blood pressure is the main cause of heart disease. It lowers our energy levels, makes sleep difficult, and can cause headaches and migraines. Regular sex is one of the best ways to counter this and balance your body and mind in a healthy way. 

While some doctors say an apple a day keeps the doctor away, some say an orgasm a day keeps the stress away. 

4. Sex increases libido 

Having regular sex increases a person’s sexual desire. It’s kind of like when you keep on doing something you enjoy, you reach new heights. For women, sex lubricates the vagina and increases both elasticity and blood flow. For both men and women, a healthy sex life can help reach new sexual heights and intense orgasms. 

5. Healthy sex life = Better mental and emotional health 

Some of the most obvious benefits are increased confidence and happiness. Regular sex with a partner that matches your level of sensuality, is also the key to intimacy, trust, and love in your relationship. But the benefits go much deeper than that. Staying sexually active in your later years can increase memory and mental acuity. Plus, it ups our emotional intelligence, increasing our 

capacity to perceive, identify, and express our emotions. Don’t have a partner? No problem! Sex toys help both men and women achieve orgasms. https://maxblack.com.au  

(maybe put an affiliate link here for your readers to shop for sex toys). 

These are just a few of the benefits of having a healthy sex life. Orgasms are the key to having less stress, better mental and physical health, and being more productive. We all tend to go through some type of stress, but sex can help promote better living for us all.

In gratitude, Taranga. 

Giving back to yourself with a Yoni Massage

Uncategorized

One thing that came to my attention again last week was the need for all the ladies out there to give back to themselves. In fact, I had two different women come to me, each coming out of really challenging situations, and both in need of some beautiful, loving attention. And this isn’t unusual. 

As women, we are often put in the position of taking care of others. Sometimes our own needs are put on the back-burner while we make sure that others have what they need. But the thing is, if we aren’t fulfilled, there isn’t much to give back to others. There’s only so much we can give without making sure our own needs are met. 

One way to give back to yourself is with a yoni massage. Women are sensual creatures. It’s part of who we are, how we are built. We are connected to our bodies on a deep level, and we need to honour the body. And sometimes, we don’t give ourselves permission to do that. A yoni massage or full body sensual massage is an amazing way to channel some beautiful self-love. Plus, there’s nothing like an amazing, toe curling orgasm to re-energise the body and tap into deeper levels of vitality and joy. 

Starting your yoni massage with an open mind and an open heart is the best way to really garner the benefits of this practice. While for many, this can be a hard task to do, the end results are always rewarding. Doing so can help you learn to relax into your body rather than staying strictly within the boundaries of the mind. By connecting with yourself this way, you are one step closer to alleviating mental stresses too, particularly anxiety and depression. 

As you relax into your massage, expect to awaken new senses. You may experience pleasures you have never experienced before. There are many new ways you might discover yourself through a yoni massage using touch and breath.  Body awareness is a beautiful and exciting thing. And the more you learn, the more information you can share with your lover back home, or maybe just yourself, for a more fulfilling, eye-opening sex life. 

Women are often more resistant to sexual pleasure-based therapies than men. However, whether you’re a man or a woman seeking this kind of therapy, there’s absolutely no shame associated with it. In fact, a yoni massage or sensual full body massage is a perfect way to reclaim ourselves. That’s what these therapies are for. By allowing ourselves to experience self pleasure, we explore our sexual selves. We allow ourselves to expand and to create a deeper connection with our bodies. 

Touch and orgasm are ways of honouring our bodies. They help us to reawaken our sensual selves and reconnect with our passion and joy. Healthy self-love and touch is a way of giving back to ourselves. A form of self-care. And, when we give back to ourselves, we get back to ourselves. 

We reclaim that sense of vitality and energy that makes life a joy to live. We all deserve that. We deserve to connect with sensual feeling and allow ourselves passionate, sensual expansion. 

So check in. Have you been giving back to yourselves? Are you making sure you schedule in some time for some loving self-touch? Have you given yourself permission to take care of your own needs, or has it been all about taking care of others? Maybe it’s time. 

If you’re curious about yoni massage and you’d like to know more about it, feel free to reach out. I love to help my clients to reconnect with their bodies and embrace their sexual selves.

COVID-19 Lockdown Experience.

Uncategorized

The second half of 2021 has been quite turbulent and, without realising, it’s been about two months since I’ve last sat down to write a blog post. The simple reason behind this is something that’s been on all of our minds here in Australia – COVID-19.

As you know, I live in the beautiful city of Sydney and we’ve been in lockdown for the last twelve weeks. This lockdown feels never-ending as our infection rate keeps growing and it seems reaching 0 cases has become an impossible idea. Instead, the focus has become on getting people vaccinated, so until enough people have received their two doses, we’ll continue to live in a state of lockdown.

I’m fortunate enough to be one of the people who get a cheque to just hang out and enjoy my time alone. However, the one thing I can’t do is have my clients over for a sensual and erotic massage experience. I’ve officially closed down again until further notice.

Although not being able to do what I love causes me great sadness, I must admit I am in a more comfortable space than others. So many people are unable to see family and friends and must rely on platforms like Zoom to connect with their loved ones. Houses have lost their incomes and families have been devastated by COVID-19, leaving people isolated and even hospitalised. My heart goes out to everyone being affected by this terrible virus.

That’s not to say I haven’t felt the effects of the pandemic myself. I’m not enlightened or a buddha, I’ve had bouts of depression and moments of ‘what am I doing here?’. I’ve had periods of reflection and wasted too many hours watching anti-vax videos on YouTube (which are downright depressing in themselves).

One positive aspect though is that I’m already fully vaccinated and have my certificate ready to show clients when they can come to visit me again. Being fully vaccinated makes me feel more comfortable and confident when going out to shop for basics or spending a little time outside for exercise and to take care of my mental health. I’m also proud to be fully vaccinated so that when things do open up again I can care for my clients in the safest way possible, while also doing my part for the community at large.

So, what does this mean for us all spiritually, emotionally and physically? We all have to do our part to remain positive but it’s also important to take time to reflect on how we’re truly feeling. If you do ever get down, that’s okay. One thing I’ve learnt is that what goes down must come back up, so remember that this pain is only temporary. Use that time for reflection, be kind to yourself and do as much as you can to stay positive.

If you are struggling a little bit, I’ve got some fun tips for you on how to uplift your mood. Give yourself a relaxing massage, take a long bath, or try both at the same time! Organise a little dance party through Zoom with your loved ones and jump around your living room together (virtually) to your favourite songs. Put on your all-time favourite movie, or cosy up in bed with your laptop and watch some fun videos on YouTube. We all get an hour a day to go outside, breathe in fresh air and exercise, so use that to its fullest. Look up at the sky, walk solely in

meditation and enjoy the beautiful outdoors. Don’t forget to be kind to others too, just saying one simple thing to make a family member or friend feel great about themselves can really change their whole day. If you are on your own in lockdown, make sure you’ve got your singles buddy locked in and try to connect with them as much as possible to brighten your day and theirs.

While we may not be able to see each other face to face right now, we can still connect with each other through OnlyFans. It’s an online platform with a monthly subscription fee that will allow you access to all my virtual content as well as a way for us to keep talking and working together. My OnlyFans platform is a place of connection and reflection, meditation, ASMR readings, musings and positive quotes. It’s a very casual space where we can get to know each other on a deeper level. Sometimes I just post personal content like sweating the little things in life and lighthearted funny things. If you want me to discuss something of importance to you, you can write to me and let me know via OnlyFans as well.

My OnlyFans account name is Bliss Rising, but you can check out my page via this link. I’ll be posting twice a week, come connect with me there!

To everyone who sees this blog, be safe and well wherever you are in the big wide world. Enjoy every moment, give blessing for what you have in life and always have joy in your heart.

Taranga,

The Importance Of Boosting Your Body Image

The Importance Of Boosting Your Body Image

You’re too fat. You’re too skinny. Your hair is too short or too long. You’re beginning to get wrinkles. You’ve got cellulite. Your hair’s going grey. Your tits are sagging. Your man boobs are swelling. You look like a dag. On and on the ‘What’s Wrong With Me’ list goes.

We all get that feeling of not being good enough, and it’s a message that’s reinforced constantly by the media, and occasionally (if unintentionally) by our family and friends. The endless pressure to look good all the time can be exhausting. But times are changing, and it’s becoming more and more encouraged to fall in love with the skin we’re in.

However, body positivity shouldn’t just be a trend on Instagram. It should be everyday living.

We need to start loving our bodies, whatever shape or form they present themselves in. When we accept ourselves with unconditional love, we begin to see the world and others through different eyes – and we also need to start feeling a little bit more relaxed about life in general.

One recent client told me she would have been too embarrassed to come for a session with me if she hadn’t lost quite a bit of weight. I was happy that she had come in, but I was disappointed to hear that her weight was a deciding factor. It does not matter what size you are, we all need touch and love through body contact.

The Tantra Womens Massage that I offer is both an empowering and enlightening experience, deserved by all. This kind of restorative bodywork invites a sense of total relaxation and spiritual awakening, which may actually be the key to letting go of our body worries. If you suffer from poor body image, or feelings of self-consciousness during sex, tantra massage can act as a therapy session to combat this type of negative thinking.

It can certainly be a daunting thing, and can certainly make you feel very vulnerable when revealing your naked body to another. However, the experience of sensual massage helps to alleviate this kind of unnecessary fear. From heart-focused healing sessions to the focused yoni massage, you can come to understand your body more holistically through tantra massage.

It is generally a very helpful remedy for body image issues, and can also help improve your sex life. Being such an experimental practice tailored to each individual body, the experience is very transformative. Allow this practice to help you feel more comfortable and confident in your body. Get to know yourself. Practice the act of self-love and acceptance.

So, wherever you are, whoever you are, love the body you are in, right now. Tell your body that you love it, right now. Give yourself permission to feel good in the body you have, right now.

This body is the only one you have – so give it love, take care of it and enjoy it through exercise, good food and healing modalities like massage, bodywork and dance. There are

no two bodies alike, and as a bodyworker, that makes for a colorful experience when I’m giving a massage! I love being presented with different bodies, and giving the exact same love to every single one.

That is the art of acceptance. So, love the body you are in, and it will love you right back.

In Gratitude
