This episode is part two with Goddess Amina (Amina Peterson). In this episode, we talk about everything from the politics of sex to psychedelics. Regarding sexual politics, Amina feels the best was to buck our patriarchal system is by offering and teaching something that is way better than anything patriarchy can ever offer…next level pleasure. With a gleam in her eye, Amina states, “This is how we fight patriarchy, by offering something way juicier, way more whole, way healthier, and way more appealing. Amina questions the hypocrisy in our culture related to sex and points out that, “We can sell a waterfall, but we can't sell our own p*ssy.” She discusses rights related to sex work and delineates survival sex work versus empowered sex work. After this impassioned conversation, we switch gears and discuss Amina's work with psychedelics. She offers San Pedro retreats outside of the United States. She likens San Pedro ceremonies to “getting a hug from the universe for ten hours.” She excitedly explains that she's been learning from a shaman since 2021 and describes how her guests seem changed after these experiences. Finally, we close the interview discussing the importance of access and inclusion of Black and Brown people in the psychedelic movement including the necessity of having Black and Brown run retreat centers and clinics. We discuss the importance of amplifying the public awareness of sexual abuse that has been enacted by some shamans, mentors or facilitators upon some guests, students or patients who are experiencing a psychedelic journey. All of this drives home the point that profits should never be more important than people. We hope you join us for incredibly thought-provoking episode of Open Deeply.

Intimacy coach Amina Peterson (one of the featured experts on our Netflix show Sex, Love & goop) wants us to acknowledge that sex is how we play as adults. And she wants us to expand what we think of as sex and play. Peterson shares practices that combine lightness and playfulness with admiration and adoration. These acts remind us that sacred is not synonymous with serious and somber. One example is mirror work, the practice of looking in the mirror and really seeing yourself. If that sounds intimidating, keep listening. And if you're looking for more pleasure tools, see our new intimacy toolkit. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Always seek the services of an appropriate professional should you have individual questions or concerns. Participant #1: Welcome to the Sex With Dr. Jess podcast. I am your host, Jessica O'Reilly, your friendly neighborhood Sexologist. And today we are going to be learning all about tantric sex. Joining me is Amina Peterson. Amina is the founder of Fearless Giving Atlanta. Tantra, formerly the Hawaii based Tantra in paradise and the host of the Fix Your Sex podcast. Thanks for being here. Thank you for having me. So tell us a little bit about Fearless Giving. Okay. So Fearless Giving was born because I watched the Ted talk. So the name was born because of that where there was a Ted talk where a woman was talking about learning to give without the fear of not getting something back. And I thought, Well, that's what I'm doing. I like that. That's the whole point of this. That's the whole point Participant #1: from the sex side of Tantra is that we're offering something so beautiful to someone and we don't have any hangups around whether or not it's going to be reciprocated in a way that we needed to be reciprocated, that we actually get from the give. And so I said, that's going to be my name, Phyllis Gifting. And I was transitioning from Hawaii, and I had to kind of figure it out when I got here from Hawaii to Atlanta, from Hawaii to Atlanta, a bit of a transition. And I moved here for family, being 11 hours in the middle of the ocean for almost twelve years, it starts to get old and you get missing my nieces and nephews and the family and the love and the community and the Southern fried food and the Southern fried food, raw fish is good for me. I really would like some of that. Yeah. Good old green fried tomatoes. Well, I haven't had that. We're actually here in Atlanta right now. I haven't had those fried green tomatoes yet. I guess I need to have that you do before I leave. I can make some recommendations before I leave. That's a great place. Not too far from here. I'm on a food mission. So tell me how you got into Tantra to begin with. Okay. So I actually started off when went to massage school after my second divorce in my 20s. How much you call a quick study? After my second divorce, I had a restaurant. I sold it, and I went to massage school because I had a wonderful massage and I'm a true Aquarius. Oh, yeah. So I go off and I finished my massage school and I start hustling on the side. I'm divorced. I'm not really working full time and kind of just wondering. So I started doing massage therapy, and this was before the Craigslist killer. This was back when it was totally normal. I thought, anyway, in my naive state, not even somewhat sketchy or sexually oriented at all to put an ad on Craigslist and say, I have a massage, come by my house and get one stranger. And so I started doing that. And during that time, all of my men clients were all male clients were pitching tents. Right. There'd be these erections. And I was, like, found out that you could make a little bit more money if you rubbed on them. And so that's what I did. I transitioned from therapeutic massage to therapeutic massage with a happy ending pretty quickly. The happy ending came quickly, or you translate both. I'm very good. That's interesting,
