Meal time enlightenment, thanks to a Buddhist chef

Absolute bliss!  That’s what I felt when the bright orange kobocha squash made contact with my taste buds.  It was so creamy, and it was if it was melting in my mouth.  I didn’t ask about the seasoning, as I was experiencing such joy; my mind was clear of any other thoughts or curiosity.  I did taste a slight hint of dill which was peculiar and unique.  It might not sound appealing at first, at least not for me, but I was pleasantly surprised.  Have you ever been so incredibly delighted by food that your mind becomes clear of all thoughts?  My senses were fully ignited and engaged during this particular meal.

Where was I dining may you ask? Shangri-La in Oakland, California. …

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.…
