Most men have been put off by dark masculinity that in unconscious...the abuse and domination of our world. As a result, many good men develop the "Nice Guy" persona.
But what if this is at the expense of their sexuality and power?
How can a man with heart activate his dark masculine without being "toxic" or harmful? (and the irony is, most women WANT this)
Shashi Solluna chats with men's facilitator Ori Dahan.

It is a common phenomenon that many women do not enjoy sex as much as they would like to. Many suffer from numbness or pain, and do not know why, nor how to heal themselves. As a result, there are women who just endure intimacy as a way to connect with their partner, and others who just avoid it.
Laura Walter is an expert in this topic, because she herself used to suffer from numbness and pain. Through Tao Tantra tools she began to heal and turn around her situation. Now she coaches many women to heal the same issues, and reclaim their right to pleasure.
Join Shashi Solluna and Laura Walter in a conversation about this issue and the steps required to move through it.
If you want to go on a deeper journey with Laura, she is offering her guidance and tools on a 4 week live course: https://livetantraacademy.com/p/from-pain-to-pleasure

This episode is exploring the field of Conscious BDSM, renamed BDSI (bondage, domination, submission and impact) by Jonathan Beger. This field of exploration is becoming increasingly popular, even in mainstream society, and yet still the depths of which are often misunderstood or indeed misused. Several facilitators have been creating a new field, they call Tantric BDSM/BDSI, which works with trauma healing, shadow work, energy awareness and cultivating higher states of consciousness. I chat with Jonathan to find out more about it. Find Jonathan at www.consensual.eu.

Both classical tantra and neo tantra have always been known as being controversial paths, diving shamelessly into shadows such as desire, lust and longing. Recently there has been a growing awareness around trauma, and participants are often looking to Tantra as a place to heal traumas. Others report that the Tantra field re-traumatized them with its confrontational practices, or questionable boundaries between facilitators and students (most schools do not allow this, but a few believe it should be allowed). Today I talk to Buster Radvik, who is both a Tantra facilitator and a professional psychotherapist, and we explore the question: can we heal trauma with Tantra?

Tantra is sometimes seen as a pretty heteronormative field, with its teachings on masculine and feminine energy. But once you start to dive into it, it becomes clear that these terms are about how energy flows, and is not limited to the physical body or gender. In fact, we could rename masculine and feminine energy as "Yang" and "Yin", or as penetrative energy and receptive energy.
What we can see then, is that the way we channel energy can be a choice. A choice that is open to everyone, regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation or preference. I chat with Kamela Love about Queer Tantra, and the experiences available.
In this conversation, we explore how it is for same-sex couples to explore Tantra. But also beyond even that...Tantric practices can give us all the opportunity to step out of the box. We chat about the new term: "pansexual" and how many individuals find that there is a meeting point beyond identification...an experience of letting sexual energy flow that is not limited by who we think we are or who we think we are relating with.

We are drawn to relating so that we can enjoy giving and receiving...the very foundation of what makes a relationship. And yet, these are areas that we are not taught about in our education, and indeed there is a lot of confusion about it all.
One of the leading voices on this topic is Betty Martin, who created the Wheel of Consent. This is a practice and a model for exploring the intricacies of true giving receiving, both as the "doer" and being "done to". Once we start to takes these pieces a apart, only then can we begin to understand all of these dynamics.
In this interview, you will learn:
* Why doing and giving are not synonymous * Why being done to and receiving are not synonymous * Understand more about how to take pleasure * Why receiving is so challenging * How to learn what you really desire * How to activate your senses to really take pleasure from touch * Why even long term couples can benefit from consent and agreementsFind out more about Betty here: https://bettymartin.org/ and her book here: https://wheelofconsentbook.com/

Tibetan Tantra is probably the path least known by Westerners. Most of us in the modern Western world follow NeoTantra and dive into Taoist Sexual Arts and some classical Indian Tantra. This might be partly due to the fact that Tibetan Tantra is much a monastic path, practised largely by monks. This may be one of the reasons it is not so seen in Western culture. Also many of the teachings are secret and not revealed until the practitioner has attained a certain level of personal achievement.
Today Shashi Solluna chats with Jampa Stewart, who has dived deep into Tibetan Tantra as well as the Tao Tantric Arts. The intention is to explore what are the difference and similarities of the different paths.

What is the connection between kundalini rising, the energy body, energetic sex and astral sex?
Perhaps one of the few people on this planet who can talk with confidence on these topics is Michael Winn, founder of Healing Tao USA, who has been facilitating the Taoist Sexual Arts and Inner Alchemy for over 40 years.
Following on from his class in the LiveTantra Kundalini Symposium, I chat with Michael about his own first experiences with astral sex and what he learned from it.
In this juicy and alive conversation you will discover:
The difference between raising sexual energy up to the heavens, and circulating it in the body. All about energy orgasm and spiritual orgasm Detailed descriptions of astral sex Micheal shares his first experience of being "sexually taken" by a woman in the astral plane! He talks about learning how to work with energy more consciously and deliberately. Michael will share about the profound energetic connection he has with his wife of 25 years, and how they even transcended life and had energetic sex after she had passed away (get a box of tissues ready for this story, as it is very touching) All about porn and how it operates on the astral planeYes, this interview is far out there and yet somehow also down to earth.

Dating is something that is constantly evolving. It used to be picking her up and taking her for dinner. Over the last decades we have seen online dating simply soar in popularity, and speed dating and other such live events to facilitate connections.
But what about in the world of Tantra? Surely a field so focused on sex, love and connection should be full of dating options. And how do facilitators merge tantric practices together with dating? Plus, with recent lockdowns, how can Tantra teach us to create the experiences that fulfill us?
Today I chat with Eleanor Rutman who runs her own Sensual Speed Dating night in Switzerland. She is a trained tantra facilitator and merges tantra with dating! (Plus, she tells me, had a lot of personal experience with dating in her time!).
We talk about what Tantra can bring to dating, plus how we can carry it into meaningful online experiences.

How is a man to find a healthy way to be in his masculine in today's world? When we hear so much about the "toxic masculine", the backlash of the #metoo movement paints a very dismal picture of men and masculine energy.
So what is a man to do? Ignore the feedback and label it all as projection? Crumple in guilt and give up all trance of masculinity?
How is a man to date in a post-#metoo era? Can a man still approach a woman and ask her for a drink without being the "toxic masculine"? Is it actually safe for men to try dating as they used to?
What does the world of Tantra and Men's work have to offer men struggling to find their way in current times? I chat with Paal Christian Buntz, creator of the Wildman Project, to find out what men are going through and what ways they can move forward. We chat about #metoo, boundaries, tantra and polyamory, porn addiction and relationships.

Power dynamics can be one of the biggest causes of conflict and harm in a relationship.
Commonly, women give their power away to men in various ways, although this can also be the other way around. In this podcast, I talk with Sonja Shradha Devi about unhealthy power dynamics that result in a woman devaluing her own experience. This might be a personal relationship but is also seen in student-guru relationships.
We will talk about:
- physical abuse, emotional abuse and even spiritual abuse
- how to spot that you are in a disempowered relationship
- steps to start to heal within
- steps to start to short the relationship or leave
- watching not to fall into victim mentality
- moving from blame to responsibility
- finding your own values, needs and truth
- the qualities of empowered relationships and how to attract them

Something that I feel we all need to learn about if we want to have harmonious relationships is trauma healing.
Most of us have had more trauma than we realize, and right now we are in times of mass collective trauma (trauma is defined as anything that is overwhelming for our system to process). It affects our emotions, our nervous system our ability to relate with others...and this all comes out in our interpersonal relationships.
Add to that the amount of sexual trauma and abuse that many have suffered. You may feel as if you have got over it, and yet in an intimate relationship you get triggered and find yourself shutting down. This is because often our unresolved trauma resurfaces in intimate relationships.
For that reason, as I have worked with couples for many years to teach them about Tantra, I have come to the realization that we also need to understand at least the basics of trauma healing if we are to have a harmonious relationship. In fact, this needs to be the precursor to learning Tantra practices (otherwise some of the practices will trigger you and you won't know why).
I have made this podcast to help couples understand the basics of trauma healing and the importance of integrating this into your relationship tool kit.

Many religions teach that in order to be truly spiritual, you must suppress sexuality and destroy your sexual urges. Tantra is one rare exception, that instead invites you to enter sexuality but with full awareness and consciousness.
Ohad Ezrahi is part of the lead faculty of ISTA, leading conscious sexuality trainings around the world. However, in his early days he was immersed into Orthodox Judaism and was even ordained as a Rabbi. This came from his deep yearnings to find more to life than just the surface level. Yet, the split between sex and spirituality always caused him pain.
In this episode, Ohad shares his incredible story, and his findings along the way.
Find out how he went from looking for ascension, to turning it around and bringing spirit and consciousness deeply into the physical and sexual realms.
I often say, let us journey from Sex to Spirit. But in this case, I definitely will say: Let us journey from Spirit to Sex!
