Let me fill you in quick. My husband Joe and have been studying with Freddy Zental Weaver and Elsbeth Meuth, the founders of TantraNova for nearly five years. We have the privilege of assisting them, as they lead couples through a week-long workshop at Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California. I believe in Karma, as does Joe-who mentions that ours must be exceptionally good, to be doing this work in this freaking incredible location. It’s true. It’s really incredible. We get to hang out in paradise for a week, and are fed the most delicious and nourishing food I’ve ever tasted. Every day we have conversations with new friends, that share the desire to discuss global or universal concepts (engage highly stimulating conversation).…
Tantric kissing is juicier with a plate of fruit
Last weekend, my husband, Joe and I participated in a Tantric kissing workshop led by the highly skilled Divine Kika. Who could resist a beautiful Brazilian Goddess leading you through intimate practices with your beloved? Well, Joe and I couldn’t. One look at the workshop through a Facebook event page had us hooked. First, I will let you know that it was absolutely wonderful and certainly one of the best date nights that we’ve ever had. It was unique, we were in the company of conscious couples, and we were learning something new — learning something that would enhance our relationship; everything about it was just perfect.
I’d love for you to get a vision of the setting for this perfect evening.…
Get Sweaty and Get in tune. Yoga is my drug.
My Happy Drug, that is! First things first.
Somehow, in this adventurous life I lead, I board a flight at least once a month. Fortunately, I love traveling. I love the energy and the many unique people I encounter. I love learning how to acclimate to new places. I even love airports-especially my main hub, San Francisco International Airport-talk about Sensual Food options, OH yeah! One thing I have found to be true from the 100+ flights I’ve boarded in the last few years, is that I need three main things to keep me going while in transit. Number one is, of course, Sensual Foods: the highest quality organic and sustainable food available. The second is physical activity; I prefer Yoga or dance, and the third-without a doubt, is laughter.…
Can ditching sugar can sweeten your relationship?
Delicious, sweet, moist, rich piece of yummy chocolate cake! How do these words make you feel? I love chocolate. I love chocolate cake. I love desserts. All of the time? Probably not. Most of the time? Yes.
I believe it was the day after my 11th birthday. It was either a blistering cold “snow day” in the Midwest, and I didn’t have school. I woke up and turned on the history channel-wait, I’m making things up now. I turned on MTV and went in the kitchen to find breakfast. Somehow, no one was awake but me. My favorite mornings as a child were the ones where the house was mine! I grabbed the few left over pieces of the chocolate cake out of the refrigerator from my birthday party two nights prior. …
A romantic, sensual date at…The Farmer’s Market!
On Sundays I feel passionate romance in a very bright, public setting. Fresh aroma of sweet fruits and organic, local fare, smiling faces and sun shining. Mmmm how I love the FARMER’S MARKET! My husband and I love going to the Sunday Farmer’s Market! Don’t worry…If you’re living somewhere with snowy winters, you can always re-create the vibe in the produce section! As we walk-feeling the warm embrace of the sun, we slowly scan the offerings and let the vibrant colors draw us in closer. Joe will pick up a tomato, and make eye contact with me before he gives the delicate plump fruit a smooch! He loves to kiss his food-have I mentioned this before?! We walk hand in hand, in gratitude that these incredible people are sharing such gifts!…
Sensual Recipe for enjoying every bite of your mushroom soup!
Spoon to lips. Incoming! Textures and flavors ignite the senses. Deep, slow inhale with closed eyes and we’re in orgasmic food bliss.
I love this concept of “orgasmic food!” It really caught my attention when my friend, the beautiful Miss Jaiya-an internationally recognized sexologist-used these words to describe the way we eat.
Yesterday, my husband and I had dinner at this adorable quaint little place near our home; that prides themselves on using organic, local, sustainable fare (orgasmic food). The food is delicious and the quality is unmistakable. It was so incredibly tasty that after I took a moment in gratitude, and blessed my meal-as I do each time-we literally dove in. It only took a few bites for me to realize I wasn’t really enjoying the food. …
Speaking the same food language…and makin’ love in the kitchen
Jenny L.: “Great Blog! I’m married to a chef and would love to see you write about getting your partner on board with revamping the kitchen.”
Lana: “Love it! Totally part of the plan…stay tuned! I’ll certainly zero in on this!”
Jenny L.: “Cool. Because I’m gluten and dairy free and more…he can eat what he wants and thinks organic “isn’t worth it””
This is the good stuff. This is where food gets fun. When we can make LOVE in the kitchen.
What better way to dive in, then sharing my own journey? My own story of how love began in the kitchen. There’s a whole wild ride that took me to South Jersey and to the doorstep of a man’s home who is now my husband. …
