Sally Kempton is one of my yoga heroes. I found her work at a time in my practice life where I felt stunted, and a bit lost. I was hungry for something that wasn’t on offer to me, at least not in the yoga circles that I found myself in. I wanted to meet a teacher who had depth, experience and as my friends and I say, is the “real deal”. Sally Kempton is that teacher. And while I have yet to study with her in person, her book Awakening Shakti, and audio program Doorways To The Infinite had a profoundly impactful presence on my personal practice & teaching life. So it is with great joy, that I bring you my conversation with Sally Kempton. ABOUT SALLYSally Kempton is a powerful teacher of applied spiritual wisdom, known for her capacity to kindle meditative states in others and help students work with meditative experience as a framework for practical life-change. She teaches teleclasses, retreats, and workshops, and is on the faculty at Esalen and Kripalu. Sally is the author of the best-selling book, Awakening Shakti: The Transformative Power of the Yoga Goddesses and Meditation for the Love of It, which Spirituality and Health magazine called “The meditation book your heart wants you to read.” Her audio program, Doorways to the Infinite: The Art and Practice of Tantric Meditation, was released by Sounds True.

The saying goes "the eyes are the window to the soul", and so eyes gazing is a way to learn to look inside other people's souls and what we find ultimately is ourselves. Today we will talk about this marvelous technique to sit in front of somebody else and just gaze at their eyes, without talking, and seeing what happens to us. There are tremendous benefits to this practice and we believe everyone needs that today more than ever. In this video you can see what happens to strangers when they try gazing at each other's eyes for 30 seconds: https://youtu.be/nokJL3VC2SQ Mind Fit Podcast 40, Eyes Gazing Tantric Meditation with Robert Aceves and Neil Babins. This 40th episode, Eyes Gazing Tantric Meditation, is about connecting with other human beings, even strangers, in a deeper level. It's about breaking ourselves and the shell that we have created around ourselves to leave people out and let go, so that they may enter our lives in a deeper level. It's about falling in love. This podcast also talks about the importance of using our own mind to grow and transform our lives into something better. Eyes Gazing Tantric Meditation explains the many different things we can do to overcome our limitations that may arise in our daily lives and come up with a plan to break them now and make the changes necessaries to keep our goals alive, by doing whatever it takes to make things happen. And what we can do to improve ourselves, our life styles and also understand where our problems may be coming from. In this podcast Eyes Gazing Tantric Meditation, you will learn how to connect better with yourself, and how to lead a healthier life simply by being you.

Taking your seat in a Tantric Meditation - 7 points of posture guided meditation

https://ranjana.one/ https://tantrashamanicessence.com/ Ranjana works as a psychotherapist, and Tantra counselor and facilitator in self-development for individuals and groups. From an early age, she felt a longing to experience life in all its dimensions, where everything is included as ONE, instead of split off from experience. In 1988, she learned about Osho's Active Meditations and began practicing them. Meditation transformed her life, bringing in greater sensitivity, expansion and love. At this time, Ranjana also began neo-shamanism training in the Andes Mountains where she experienced a deep connection with nature. Ranjana has also been living The Tantra Path since 2010, in which she has found unity and sacredness. After experiencing these paths for more than 25 years, she has brought together Asian traditions, Tantra, meditation and the indigenous cosmos-vision where life, love, death, and cycles of nature are living as one into the Great Spirit. Ranjana's workshops aim to integrate them into the way we live our daily lives, even in urban environments. In this episode Ranjana talks growing up in the Andes, shamanism (or as she likes to call herself, the medicine woman), and the use of tantric practices to heal relationships that have been shaken due to the demands of life in the military or as a civil servant, and using her blend of tantric practices, meditation, and other aspects of spiritual journeys to heal and recover from sexual trauma. When the episode opens up, around the 7:40 mark Ranjana treats us to some songs accompanied by drums to honor the male and female polarities or more commonly known as energies. At the 10:20 mark through 21:30 we spend some time discussing her journey to becoming a medicine woman and how that path led her to Tantra. From 21:30 there we get into the Tantra talk. In this segment we discussed the demands of military life and life of a civil servant and the stress those jobs can have on a relationship, and how Tantric Mediatiation and workshops like the ones Ranja leads can help couples come back to a place of love, trust, and comfort. Around the 1:06:00 mark we discuss how people who have may have become paralyzed or and amputee can still experience the feelings of physical love without actually being physical. We close out this first of a two part episode discussing Ranjana's workshops, particularly the Sweat Lodge.

Reconnect your body with your sensuality using this 10-minute Tantric meditation on light.

I've studied and practiced tantric meditation since 1998. Tantric Meditation uses the power of imagination to transform the mind. Positive thought takes action starting in the mind which is geared to accept negativity more easily than positive thought. Take time out to vision out a positive future while in the present moment.

You can see as a curse, a result as our global carelessness or as a manifestation of sacred energy. It is the universes gift to you. 2-Tantra is a tradition that offers tools for tuning-in the sacredness of every part of your experience. It's about non duality; not making a split between the mind and the body or ourselves and others. It's a devotional path where we put the emphasis on tuning to higher energies, particularly Shakti, feminine power. 3-Goddesses are condensed form of Shakit Energy. The different goddesses can help us connect to all the different aspects of ourselves, our divine feminine nature. They exist as psychics states of our being. 4-If you are afraid of a strong energy, turn towards it. As you move through it's intensity, you will eventually find the love that they are really about.5-Life is all about love. Love is the floor, it's the ground. it;s what is. There's interpersonal love, romantic love, but a lot of the practice is about opening to the love that is always there. you need to remove the vales that cover and close our heart. Learn how to open your heart. Feel into the energy of the heart space. You can cultivate it and invite it in.QUESTIONS SHE ANSWERED DURING THIS EPISODE :Can you tell us a little bit about yourself and your spiritual journey?Why do you work particularly with Goddesses?A lot of your work is based in non-dual tantra.

Radha has drawn from her 40-years experience as a spiritual seeker, meditator and Tantra teacher to found Tantralife and create an original method to make the ancient and esoteric science of Tantra accessible to modern day people.Some of the Questions and Topics covered:- What is Tantra?- How has Radha's own Tantric Path begun?- What's wrong with Promiscuity and how is Tantra different from it?- Can a Tantrica live with someone who is not into spirituality?
