2025 Tantra Talks Throwback! If you followed spiritual communities online in 2025, you likely noticed this topic: Polyamory, Aubrey Marcus,  and “Radical Nonmonogamy”, etc., etc.But are all these radical liberating concepts simply code words for “Poly f*ckery” i.e. f*ck around without consequence?In this throwback episode of Tantra Talks from May 2025, we address one of the most common myths in Western Tantra:Do you have to be polyamorous to practice Tantra?Short answer: No.But we go way deeper than that. You'll discover how the unexpected choice of intentional monogamy could lead to more profound spiritual growth than you ever imagined, and learn about simple, powerful practices to transform any relationship context.Here’s what we unpack:Why Tantra is not inherently polyamorous or monogamousThe real danger of “poly-f*ckery” masquerading as spiritual awakeningHow non-monogamy can become another form of trauma reenactmentHow choosing “intentional monogamy” can serve as a powerful exploration in spiritual practice. How to make relationship choices from presence—not pressure or performanceOur personal experiences navigating polyamory, swinging, and monogamy within a Tantric context.The monogamy vs non-monogamy debate isn’t just a spicy trend—it’s a deeper call to examine your intention, nervous system, and patterns when it comes to how you love and connect. Thank you for listening to Sex Is Medicine!

It's not often we get the opportunity to speak to living legends!  Join us for a conversation about Reproductive Justice with Loretta J Ross and Marlene Gerber -two prominent leaders in the social justice movement.ABORTION AND REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE: An Essential Guide for Resistance, by Marlene Gerber Fried and Loretta J. Ross, emphasizes that the right to have and raise children is as essential for reproductive choice as the right not to.This critical approach—originating in Black feminism—provides grounding for radical abortion advocacy. Calling on us to join in, the book highlights abortion stories from individuals and organizations who are putting this analysis into action on the front lines, in the United States and beyond.By linking abortion rights to broader social justice initiatives, including Black Lives Matter, immigrant and refugee rights, disability justice, and LGBTQ+ rights, the authors expand the conversation at a critical moment.In this episode of Sex Is Medicine, we discuss:Why "reproductive justice" goes beyond abortion rights to include the right to parent- How this framework changes the conversation.- The connections between abortion access and broader social justice movements, including:- Black Lives Matter- Immigrant rights- Disability Justice- LGBTQ+ rights- Stories of activists and organizations on the front lines, and what they teach about building an inclusive, intersectional movement for the future.About Our GuestsMarlene Gerber Fried is Professor Emerita of Philosophy at Hampshire College and cofounder of the National Network of Abortion Funds.Loretta J. Ross is a MacArthur Fellow, Associate Professor of Women and Gender at Smith 1111 FRANKLIN ST OAKLAND, CA 94607 • UCPRESS.EDUCollege, and cofounder of SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Health Collective. They are coauthors, with Jael Silliman and Elena Gutiérrez, of Undivided Rights: Women of Color Organize for Reproductive Justice. Abortion and Reproductive Justice: An Essential Guide for Resistance (Universityof California Press, 9/9/25).By weaving together personal stories, historical analysis, and movement strategy, they expand the conversation and show how abortion rights are deeply connected to racial, economic, LGBTQ+, and immigrant Justice.Learn more about this episode at https://holisticsexologyinstitute.com/?p=2187Thank you for listening to Sex Is Medicine!

Beyond The Clitoris: A Dissertation On Female Pleasure ZonesThere is a concerning phenomenon in the field of sexology involving the emergence of a nearly militant insistence that the clitoris is the ONLY source of female orgasm.This viewpoint not only dismisses the lived experiences of millions of women but is also simply anatomically incorrect.While the clitoris and its surrounding structures are indeed extraordinary, they are not the only sources of orgasm. Orgasms can vary significantly and can originate from various parts of the body, the brain, and even the energy body.After over a decade of teaching people how to expand their orgasmic capacity, we've discovered that orgasms come in many variations, influenced by a broad range of factors—physical, psychological, emotional, intellectual, and energetic. In this episode of Sex Is Medicine, Devi and Alaina explore the many types of orgasmic pleasure that do not originate from the CUV complex, such as:- Cervical and uterine orgasms- P-spot orgasms- Anal orgasms- Breast and nipple orgasms- Orgasms from stimulation of the skin, ears, or feet- "Throatgasms"- Exercise-induced orgasms or coregasmsTune in for a Ph.

This is a true story of coercion, manipulation, and abuse….What happens when sexual healers engage in acts of sexual harm? Who can you turn to when an organization's leadership lacks a genuine interest in accountability?In this episode of Sex Is Medicine, Devi speaks with ISTA survivor advocate, Cara Cordoni, to explore how "sex-positive, trauma-informed" communities can sometimes function as high-control groups that cause harm to those they claim to serve.In this episode, Cara shares her experience of participating in several levels of ISTA training, the coercion, manipulation, and abuse she witnessed personally and vicariously, multiple survivor stories, and the results of her 2-year attempt to facilitate change within the heart of the ISTA organization.Find out:How ISTA uses the promise of healing, liberation, and "conscious" sexuality to attract students and clients.Validated reports of sexual harm filed against ISTA from 18 countries spanning back to 2008The troubling patterns of manipulation, neglect of participants in distress, financial exploitation, and the misuse of "trauma-informed" language without implementing actual trauma-informed practices.The 2-year attempt at mediation with ISTA that ended with defending actions that many considered rape, victim blaming, denial, and positioned themselves as victims rather than addressing the documented patterns of harm from numerous survivor reports.How ISTA's so-called "accountability process" ultimately harmed survivors furtherRed flags to watch for before joining trainings: lack of established lineage (teachers creating content without drawing from recognized traditions), spiritual bypassing, pressure to disregard boundaries in the name of "growth," financial exploitation, unclear processes for reporting concerns, and whether criticism is welcomed or punished.Thank you for listening to Sex Is Medicine!

Is it possible for women to have orgasms from breast and/or nipple stimulation?The short answer is yes! And here's why...Studies have determined that there is, in fact, a neural link between the nipple and the clitoris. Stimulation of the nipples activates the same sensory area of the brain associated with the genitals.Stimulation of the nipples activates:Your Brain -Stimulating the nipples activates both the chest area and the genital sensory cortex in the brain.Your Hormones - Nipple stimulation also triggers the release of oxytocin, a hormone that can cause uterine contractions, which may contribute to sensations in the genital area.Your Pleasure - Research involving women who have undergone a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) suggests a direct neural link, as the genital sensory cortex is still activated during nipple stimulation, even without the uterus being involved.This neural connection provides a neurological basis for why nipple stimulation can enhance sexual arousal, lubrication, and orgasm for many women.Listen to the full episode for our step-by-step guide to activating breast orgasms using Pleasure as Medicine.Thank you for listening to Sex Is Medicine!
