Book Description
An immensely practical guide to tantric sex
--This text refers to the
Paperback
edition.
Product Description
Whether you are in a relationship or single, gay or straight, young or old, this illustrated guide aims to bring a new dimension to your sex life and your relationships, from extending orgasms (or just having them in the first place), to healing sexual problems to developing a sense of spiritual connection. "Tantra" is not just about being sexy - it's about being alive to your senses. It is particularly appealing to women because it is they who take the lead. "Tantra" also gives women the opportunity to celebrate their femininity and men are encouraged to revere it. Many women are self-concious about their bodies - this book aims to help you to be conscious of your body but in a positive and empowering way. And for men the pressure to perform is removed, replaced by reciprocation, connection and ultimate fulfilment.

Format:Hardcover
Tantra:the Art of Mind-Blowing sex is a very elegant, well put together book of a coffee table nature. In terms of content it is fairly basic - better than Suzie Hayman and many of the recent elementary level ones but of little use if you know some sexual energy magic . If you are interested in trying a tantric approach to sex it has some positive suggestions but you might be better off with the Complete Idiot`s Guide to Tantric Sex as it takes you much further towards ecstasy. I preferred Tantra: to both Cassandra Lorius` Tantric sex and The Muirs` book though there are some positive aspects to them... The best book on the subject is still Sexual Energy Ecstasy by David and Ellen Ramsdale if you can get your hands on a copy. Margo Anand`s book Art of Sexual Ecstasy is very long and at times tedious but does include the important bits towards the end. Mantak Chia`s Taoist sex books aren`t too bad either.

The book strikes a good balance between sex and emotion. The first chapter deals with the more spiritual aspects of Tantra, then moves onto male/female sexual geography. The book then deals with women/men and Tantra then "Solo Tantra". It finishes off with more excercises both spiritual and physical(dealing with some common problems too), including sensual food and massage. This isn't a "relationship book" and their isn't any social phsychology involved, its based on the premise of sexual healing..and i have to say as a man...it was a great start.

I had heard about Tantra and was pretty sceptical, the whole idea seemed a bit weird. But I also felt there had to be more to a sex life that was basically dull. Val Sampson's brilliant book has helped rejuvenate my sex life in a very real way. Fortunately, Tantra is based on ancient oriental practise so it no weirder than yoga ... in fact I feel sorry for people who don't know about Tantra. That is sad and wasteful. What I liked most about this book is that it put me at ease with something that I frankly felt very uncomfortable about and I'm reaping the rewards. I am not in a relationship at the moment and it doesn't matter. I have a brilliant sex life and am ready to share a brilliant sex life when my next relationship happens. The book simply and warmly takes one through the basic steps, nothing judgemental, just a superb writing style and excellently laid out. My hope is that Tantra becomes widely practised so that so many more people go around with big smiles on their faces. This superb book I think is the best of the ones I looked at and by far the best as an introductory book.

Well it blew my mind!
As an introduction, this book has served me well. Of course, for it to work, actual sex is needed! Ms Sampson's no nonsense descriptions made the practice more accessible and her... Read more

Hmmmm, not sure...
Too much theory... You won't know how to fly a plane by merely learning its history of development!
