The Art of Adoration

Concluding Session - October 25th at 7:00pm-10:00pm

Tantric Practices for Daily Living

In this special evening, we'll be delving into the multitude of Tantric practices used by Tantrikas to awaken and amplify their sense of connection to life, to themselves and others. We’ll be spending the entire evening (3 hours) covering different intimacy and connection practices, either one-on-one or in a group setting. We are hoping to seal the series with giving a wide variety of tools to jump start your Tantric journey and open a new door for personal exploration.

This unique series was created to provide both men and women with an opportunity to practice and expand our capacity to experience, receive, and honor the divine that is alive in each of us. Each week we will expand our connection to each other and ourselves as we explore the nature and practice of conscious intimacy. Each session will open with an hour-long dive into the teachings of the mystic path of sacred sexuality. We will be covering issues of self- acceptance, pleasure and pain, relationships between the sexes and, the historical experience of human sexuality.

Each session will close with a God/Goddess puja, a special worship ceremony honoring the divine Shiva/Shakti within us all. This aspect of the series will support you in delving deeper into the practices and techniques used by tantrikas to heighten their awareness and redirect their attention inwards.

This powerful 4-part series is directed toward curious seekers wanting to explore their own perceptions and better understand why we do what we do, and thus empower themselves to make more conscious choices in relationship.

Led by ordained Hindu priest, teacher and theologian Ran Baron, Intimacy & Sensuality Coach, Joanne Porzio, and Certified Tantra Educator, and kirtan wallah Adam Bauer, the Art of Adoration is designed to build connection in community and to provide a safe place to explore and expand our capacity to experience and nurture deep intimacy.

We will be layering the teachings and practices of each session one on top of the other, thus we encourage attendance for the entire series.

We hope you will join us for this extraordinary exploration of presence, love and intimacy as part of our daily lives.
