Keep reading to learn 5 tantric sex practices 🔥

1. Focus on Your Breath

Take your yoga skills up a notch. 😉While getting intimate, stay conscious of your inhaling and exhaling. Try to feel how the air moves through you. Listen to your partner’s breathing. If the air seems to go just to your chest, try to focus on it spreading to your belly and to the rest of your body. By doing this, you prepare your whole body to feel pleasure, not just your genitalia.

2. Eye Contact

Maintaining eye contact with your partner is an experience on its own. Try to hold their gaze for an agreed-upon amount of time. During this you can share words such as saying how their gaze makes you feel, what you desire or what attracts you the most about them.

3. Sensual Touch

Instead of touching each other simultaneously, try one-way touching. Take turns feeling your partner and make them feel you. Look for erogenous zones; While some of them are obvious, some might surprise you. Take your time while doing it. Building up anticipation is a good way to heighten desire. ❤️‍🔥

4. Keep Foreplay the Entrée

While societal narrative expects a “play” after the so-called “foreplay”, why not challenge that idea? Why not stay solely with foreplay, aka sexual outercourse? Penetration is not a must, and of course it’s not the only way to feel pleasure.

Remember, there are no “rules” when it comes to intimacy (except, as always, that it is consensual). Try to keep the foreplay state going, explore your partner’s body and let yourself be explored by them. Tantric sex is not orgasm-driven, but instead about feeling pleasurable.

5. Edging

For those who don’t know or haven’t tried it yet, “edging is the practice of stopping sexual stimulation when you’re about to reach an orgasm”. Edging can have multiple purposes, like making the sexual encounter longer and reducing premature ejaculation. It is the perfect way to explore your turn-ons and turn-offs.
