The Embodied Man: Why Self-Love Is a Man’s Greatest Power ~ Aaron Kleinerman

In this conversation, Shashi Solluna sits down with Bibi Brzozka to explore one of the biggest misunderstandings about Tantra and lovemaking.Many people imagine Tantric sex as only one thing: slow, soft, spiritual lovemaking. While this can certainly be one expression of Tantra, it is far from the whole picture.Tantra is not about following a fixed script of how sex should look. Instead, it is about awakening energy, dissolving blocks, and becoming more conscious within our bodies and our relationships.In this rich and open dialogue, Shashi and Bibi explore how Tantric lovemaking can take many forms. Sometimes it is tender and devotional. Sometimes it is playful, primal, or deeply emotional. What makes it Tantric is not the outer style, but the presence, awareness, and energetic connection that flows through the experience.They speak about how intimacy can activate different energies within us and how conscious lovemaking becomes a pathway for healing, expansion, and deeper connection with ourselves and our partners.Rather than trying to imitate a certain "Tantric style," Tantra invites us to meet ourselves honestly, notice where we feel blocked, and allow new energies to move through us.In this conversation you will discover:• Why the popular idea of Tantric sex is incomplete• How different energetic expressions of lovemaking can all be Tantric• The role of awareness and energy in conscious intimacy• How Tantra helps us open areas of the body and psyche that may be shut down• Why there is no single "correct" way for Tantric lovemaking to lookThis discussion offers a refreshing and liberating perspective for anyone interested in Tantra, conscious relationships, or exploring intimacy with greater awareness.Subscribe for more conversations and teachings on Tantra, sexuality, and conscious relating.https://www.bibibrzozka.com/

In this deeply honest and grounded conversation, Aaron and Shashi explore what is really happening for men beneath the surface.We speak openly about the quiet suffering so many men carry, the pressure to perform, provide, and stay strong, and the devastating reality that male suicide rates continue to rise worldwide.At the heart of this conversation is a truth that is rarely spoken to men directly:Self-love is not weakness.Self-love is power.Together, we explore:Why so many men feel disconnected from their bodies, emotions, and sense of purposeHow men are conditioned to abandon themselves in order to survive sociallyThe hidden cost of suppressing vulnerability, grief, and emotional truthWhy traditional models of masculinity are failing men, not strengthening themHow Tantra offers men a practical, embodied pathway back to wholenessAaron shares how Tantra for men is not about performance or technique, but about learning how to be present inside your own body, to feel without collapsing, and to meet yourself with compassion rather than judgment.This conversation is for:Men who feel exhausted, numb, or disconnected but cannot name whyWomen who want to understand the inner world of men more deeplyFacilitators, coaches, and space holders working with masculine energyAnyone who cares about the mental, emotional, and relational health of menThis is not a polished or theoretical discussion.It is real, grounded, and deeply human.Because when men learn how to love themselves, not conceptually but somatically and truthfully, everything changes: their relationships, their vitality, their capacity to stay alive, present, and engaged with life.A necessary conversation.A compassionate invitation.A return to embodied masculinity.

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.

Why do so many people feel unable to be sexually expressive? Freya Mc Farlane, Tantra Facilitator and ex-midwife, talks about the inhibitions she witnessed at numerous births, and how this is linked to sexual expression. She goes on to talk about how playing with archetypes can free us from our limitations. www.livetantra.com

Do we currently have a porn problem? According to Tyson Adam's estimation, this problem is biggest than we estimate, and is causing havoc to men's sexuality and couple's relationships, as well as being a huge loss of life force energy, Join Shashi Solluna in this interview to explore the issue and how to move out of the grips of an addiction, and towards buukding a healthier sexuality.

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.

https://live-tantra-academy.teachable.com/p/tantric-massage-for-couples Tantric Massage is a way for couples to enter into deep intimacy and union together, as well as a way to totally transform their love life. I chat with Maria Sky about how a couple can use Tantric Massage, what it is, the difference between healing and pleasure, the triggers that can arise and how they can enter this world together.

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. ***** Kamela Love (you'll find her on facebook as Kamela Peace) is a lifelong student of mysticism & Sufism, a devoted sacred sexuality practitioner and EFT/tapping practitioner, a Senior Love Coach, a skilled facilitator of sex-positive workshops and play spaces, a community harmonizer through family mediation and restorative justice work… she/they particularly love curating spaces for the queer community! Kamela is on a mission to open hearts, bodies, and minds deeply to healing powers within sexual expression and to empowerment through aligning our sexual energy with the Sacred. www.TransformIntoLove.com
