This book is absolutely stunning. It is delicious, decadent, sensual, and brimming with gorgeous glossy photos. And the best part is that this book is perfectly acceptable for someone just beginning to explore Tantra. The language is easy to read. The images are lush and inspirational and it doesn’t require anything to participate.

Kavida Rei writes this beautiful book. It’s a paperback and measures 9" high with a width of 5 1/4". It is 192 pages of gorgeous glossy images of real couples actually practicing what's being explained, and blow your mind information.

What I found to be the most incredible thing about this book is the limitless potential it offers, both to couples and to individuals. I wanted this book to explore with my partner, but currently he’s living in another city. So this book instead became a personal journey of really getting to be more intimate with myself, to accept myself, to love myself and to really take the time to appreciate myself. As a side note, I feel strongly that this book is accessible to any type of relationship be it m/f, m/m, or f/f. The principles focus on masculine and feminine energies, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it needs to involve a female and a male.

The book offers a ten-minute meditations for each different section, whether it be on loving yourself, on preparing a sacred space. Each meditation can be done on your own, or if you choose to share it, with your partner. It also encourages exploration of the chakras, and tantric massage techniques. It explores creating your own sacred objects and rituals, allowing you (and encouraging you) to modify their meditations and rituals to fit within your own life, style, and space.

It focuses on the importance of getting to know yourself, and loving yourself. Tantra stems from a healthy body image-once you love yourself you are able to share that love and passion with others. In the same breath the sensuality that oozes from this book is something I found to be “revolutionary” for lack of a better word. It really focuses on appreciating each minute detail of a person, a relationship, or experience. It encourages exploring sensory deprivation in different forms to better appreciate the sensation of a kiss on your skin, the taste of a strawberry, scent of a candle, and the way the lighting changes the way the room feels.

While Tantric Practice can require dedication and time commitment, it also can simply be a change in how you look at things. It doesn’t take hours to appreciate a kiss, or the taste of something, it simply takes a willingness to open your mind and take the time to enjoy the things you are doing. It perfectly complements a vigorous sex life, because just like the masculine feminine energies, yin and yang, making love and getting fucked complement one another perfectly.

I really hope you take the time to explore a new opportunity to grow, either personally, or within the parameters of a relationship. It has been a wonderful journey so far, and I can’t wait to share this with my partner in the future.
