Returning to Love

Dear Ones, This month’s newsletter features s a video interview I did three weeks ago for Richard Dugan’s podcast, Tell Me Your Story. In this interview, I talk about the role tantra plays in sharing our light and bringing more love into the world. I really enjoyed speaking with Richard. He’s such a good interviewer—a […]

The Path of Tantra, According to Lindy James

My focus on tantra is less about sex and more about energy, embodiment and intimacy. Energy, or chi, is the life force that courses through us and surrounds our bodies in an energetic field. Embodiment is a skill that invites our presence and awareness of the feeling of the chi energy that flows in and […]

My Tantric Walk

For this month, I want to share more about the path & trainings I’ve taken, how I have build my skills, and how one might build their skills on the path. This time I’m playing with doing it in video log (vlog) form! Over all these years it just keeps getting better and better. I truly love […]

Slowing Down and Feeding Your Soul

Slowing down is a practice I am endeavoring to develop. I try to not fill up every moment in my calendar. I intentionally leave space for the unknown, for unplanned time, such as to be in my garden and putter. I even mark in my calendar the phrase “no plans today”. I give myself time […]

The Joy of Connection

Oxytocin, dopamine, serotonin — lovely chemicals that happen in our brain, encouraging us to pursue pleasure and connection. As we become more and more present in the body, we can notice the felt sense of (the feeling of) goodness in our bodies when we are close to someone.  It can happen with our children, or […]

Pleasure, Sovereignty & the Tantric Path

Healing the rift between s£xuality and pleasure in our world In a society where s£xuality is considered a sin or used as currency to sell products or the idea of what beauty is, great harm is done to body and soul. This societal sickness is contagious and hurt begets more hurt.

Is Tantra about S£x?

Is Tantra about S£x? A Deeper Perspective on Sacred Sexuality   When I first began Tantra, I assumed it was all about s£x, orgasms and orgies. In actuality, Tantra uses subtle s£xual energy to open the body and the chakra system.  In order to feel these subtle s£xual and sensual energies, Tantra teaches us the art of […]

Love Blows Open My Heart (Again)

Love Blows Open My Heart (Again) When my son was two weeks old, I remember being shocked at the sheer intensity of my feelings.  The love for my husband at the time didn’t come close. The love I was experiencing for this new being was so massive that it felt like I could be killed […]
