Broadening Your Sexual Repertoire

10/2/2014
Broadening your sexual repertoire and opening up to the amazing life-enhancing potential of a fulfilled sexuality requires a strong basis. If we divide our sexuality into physical, mental, emotional and spiritual sexuality, it’s vital that our emotional sexuality and our spiritual sexuality are developed so that we have the safety and therefore the freedom to explore the physical and mental dimensions of our sexuality, to spice things up. Spice alone tastes terrible, add it to something fundamentally good and it takes it to new realms of experience...

Meet the Seven Goddesses of Sex

9/11/2014
On today’s show we’re not interviewing a Sex Geek, we’re talking to Seven Sex Goddesses! Or at least, Jacqueline is introducing us to the concept of the Seven Goddesses of Sex and how accessing their energies can help modern women come into the fullness of their gorgeous sexuality, with stronger self-image, more desire and greater sexual response! I've been working on this concept for over six years and I've just released the book. Each Goddess is accompanied by a fictional, historical erotic story to convey the feeling of these energies in a way that is accessible for modern-day woman. Then through 24 illustrative erotic stories readers follow the experiences of three fictional modern women as they experience the energy of each Goddess in their lives. I call it educational erotica - written to educate and inspire!

The Anatomy of Sex

7/31/2014
The human body is an incredible pleasure machine, the sensations and experiences we can potentially experience are incredible. Until recently though, it wasn’t really an aspect of science that was studied particularly thoroughly. Even today there is a lot that is unknown or unconfirmed. There’s a lot that is though, and it’s a lot more than you would have learned in school sex ed classes (if you were even lucky enough to get sex ed.) That was more about reproduction than sex, more about how to have babies and not have babies, than about pleasure, intimacy and sexual delight. We’ll be joined in this episode with another of Australia’s great Sex Geeks, Cyndi Darnell, who is creating a fabulous project on sexual anatomy. Join us to find out more about your fabulous body and it’s awesome sexual potential!

The Urge to Merge

7/24/2014
The urge to merge is a natural desire. We crave bliss and connection and fear isolation. Yet to merge requires letting go, and that requires trust and vulnerability. These qualities are often considered ‘weak’, but in fact they require great strength. Find that inner strength to be vulnerable and then you can actually fulfil your urge to merge...

The Way of Surrender

7/17/2014
Imagine letting go and simply allowing what will be to be, without fighting or striving, with a sense of ease and flow. Surrendering... There isn’t really a word in the English language that has a positive sense to letting go of control, just allowing. Which might be one of the reasons why so many people find it hard to do. We spend our lives trying hard, working at things, wanting to achieve goals and success. And then in the down-time doing the opposite, zombying out in front of the television, zoning out with drugs and alcohol. It’s like the switches are set to full on or full off. There’s another way, The Way of Surrender. Think of it as trusting that the Universe is safe, has your best interest at heart, and if you allow it, life will unfold and flow just beautifully...

Unleashing The Primitive

4/24/2014
Letting go through Tantra and opening up to sexual possibilities can take you to beautiful states of altered consciousness. It can also take you to wild states of primal consciousness - a place where the primitive is unleashed and the wild one enters. This is not civilization, it’s the wilderness - wild and ravishing, a beauty that is savage not tamed. Find out more this week on The Tantric Lounge….

Turn Your Whole Body Into An Erogenous Zone

4/17/2014
What’s your greatest erogenous zone? Your skin! So any part of your body can be an erogenous zone. We tend to limit sexual attention to only those parts of the body which we believe are ‘erogenous’, and limit is the word because there aren’t too many of them. When you explore ways to turn your whole body into an erogenous zone you open yourself up to a whole swathe of sensual pleasures….

Make Sex Your Hobby

4/10/2014
What is a hobby? According to the dictionary it’s “an activity done regularly in one’s leisure time for pleasure.” That sounds like sex to me! We all know that it’s good for couples to have a mutual hobby - cooking, gardening, sport, travel, outdoor recreation, decorating, traveling, study. It gives them something to talk about together, to experiment with and to enjoy together. You’re having sex anyway, so why not give it the same focus and attention that you give any hobby? Join Jacqueline Hellyer and her co-host Xavier Waterkeyn to find out more about how to make sex and intimacy your hobby, down on the Tantric Lounge…

The Magic of Mystique

4/3/2014
So much of sex these days is blatant. There’s no mystery, no mystique. What happens when couples share too much? There’s no room for desire, there’s no wanting to move toward, to discover more. Instead it’s dullness or moving away. How do you maintain the interest, through mystique, in a relationship? How do you ensure there is always more to discover?

Tantric Development for Men

3/27/2014
So much of my work is men is about how they can develop themselves sexually and spiritually. As one young man said to me recently, sex without the spiritually is empty. I love it when men come to me to grow in this way. There’s often a feeling that spirituality is somehow soft and unmanly - far from it! The young man just mentioned is a war vet who fought in Afghanistan, there’s nothing unmanly about him. Just as there is nothing unmanly about the tradesmen, truck-drivers, CEOs, doctors, lawyers, etc. who come to me for sexual and spiritual growth. Tantra is all about developing spiritually through the every-day, including through sexual connection. This means men need to grow in both their spiritual understanding and practice and in their sexual understanding and growth. Find out how this can occur in this week’s Tantric Lounge….
