In simple terms, tantric sex «is a union between two people» using sex as meditation.

It is also used as a space to enter into each other — «to get to know each other, merge, and elevate sexual energy.»

According to Men’s Health, unlike traditional sex, tantric sex uses the entire body, especially the heart.

Additionally, it employs four keys, which are breath, sound, presence and spontaneous movement. So what are you waiting for?

According to Men’s Health, it’s advisable to attend a workshop to learn more about how to practice tantric sex.

In addition to learning how to use the four keys, you will learn how to eliminate the usual goals when having sex: friction, ejaculation and orgasm.

In these courses, participants are taught to cultivate slowness, breathing and, above all, learning to take their time.

It’s important to note that these courses don’t involve having sex, they are purely informational.
