The Secrets of Sacred Sex by Cynthia Connop & Niyaso Christine Carter

This is a delightful video which addresses Tantric practices in a comprehensive way; it’s not only tasteful, but is sacred and respectful in its approach to tantra. The Secrets of Sacred Sex doesn’t just present information we all need to know; it actually models the tone and commitment we can make to a Tantric life-style, using sexuality as a means to examine intimacy and ways to deepen relationship.

No matter if you are single or part of a couple, applying these ideas will deepen sacred spirituality and develop your ability to cultivate refined sexual energy and respond to your partner’s sexual energy.

So yes, it is tasteful; it truely sets the tone for Tantric sexual intimacy. It draws on inherent human beauty in the way it presents the material and in its naturally sensual approach to sex. So all of the settings used, the models’ clothing, and the production values, all contribute to a video of exquisite quality, one which is really delightful to watch.

You can see how living a Tantric life-style would be a profound sexual, emotional, and spiritual experience, with naturally developed intimacy, connection and healing. Sacred Sex offers neither the casualness of a “professional” sex worker or the reasoned approach of a sex therapist. Instead, real life couples discuss what they have learned through sharing intimate Tantric practices.

This tantra video has some poetic descriptions of sexual and sensual energies - descriptions which alone make it worth the cost, because they bring to life the reality of sensual and sexual energy exchange and genuine spiritual connection between love-partners.

While Sacred Sex as a tantar video does not describe the G-spot or ways of touching the lingam, it does have many techniques to try – more than you will be able to absorb in one sitting. However, the content can of course be watched over and over, so you can then begin to embody the tantric practices you are learning about.

Among the wealth of material covered you’ll find sexual health, vitality, communication skills, relationship tips and techniques, tantra practices, energy and breathing techniques, and a discussion of the Tantric relationship. You can see couples who have survived and thrived among the storms and pleasures of everyday life through a commitment to Tantric healing with each other.

Tantric texts are described briefly, as context for practices on breath work, healing and energising the chakras, learning ejaculation control, pleasuring your partner, pacing sexual arousal, creating sexual and emotional harmony, along with eye gazing techniques, sensual massage techniques, the famous valley orgasm, and meditation and communication skills.

I appreciated the fact that the models appear to be practicing Tantrikas; an inexperienced couple was introduced as such; they were shown as they watched the tantra video and practiced the techniques. Some other couples were more experienced, and offered a candid discussion of how relationship can be supported by Tantric practices.

I felt impressed by the way a tantric life-style fits into the context of everyday life in the world. Sacred Sex makes the sexual pleasure and Tantric practice very real indeeed – completely attainable, in fact.

Highly enjoyable to watch, this video is a lesson in loving intimacy. Tantric practices are shown very sensitively, followed by discussion and interview which explain it all, to produce a deep understanding of the theory behind the techniques.

The authors show the meaning of sexual healing and embodiment of love; the video of Sacred Sex explains how embodying Tantric practices in our emotional and sexual lives will help us go much deeper in both relating to our partners and in developing sexual and emotional passion for each another.
