The Five Flavors of Female Orgasm & How to Taste Them

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/07/25

As a Tantra teacher I'm often asked about the different types of female orgasm and how to experience them. It's one of my favorite topics to talk about. There's a lot to discuss. Most women feel frustrated with their orgasmic experiences or lack thereof. In view of the conventional take on all things sexual, that makes complete sense. The model we've been given is severely flawed. It will never lead a woman to her full natural orgasmic expression. To truly experience what's possible we...

How Your Curiosity Unleashes Your Pleasure

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/07/04

As Venus enters the sign of Gemini today it's a beautiful invitation to explore one of my favorite Gemini qualities: curiosity. Curiosity and sensuality go hand in hand. We all know the saying "Curiosity killed the cat." I want to offer a reframe on that: "Curiosity awakens the pussy." To be curious is to be open, present and in flow. It requires self trust and trust in life. To be curious is to be willing to explore what feels good and nourishing. And to pass on what doesn't. When our curios...

What is Tantra? The Art of Making Love

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/06/20

The word Tantra can evoke a lot of different images. It can seem exotic, esoteric, edgy, otherworldly. There are a lot of conflicting messages that make it seem pretty complicated. But my understanding of Tantra is quite simple. Tantra is the awakening and expansion of the love that you are. The art of embodying your love. It's not something you need to seek or strive for. It's in you. Tantra is the practice of remembering that you are love. The practice of locating that love in your bo...

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/05/30

No time for pleasure? This one's for you Bella! It's sooo easy to run ourselves ragged. And when we do we forget who we are. When we connect with our pleasure it lights the way home. No matter what's going on in your life right now, honoring your sensuality and taking time for mindful pleasure will deeply serve you. Pleasure is the portal. It gives us access to our most noble qualities, rejuvenates us and gets us clear on our desires. It literally allows us to shift our reality. Pleasur...

The Art of Self Compassion & How to Cultivate It

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/05/23

Compassion is a beautiful human quality. It opens us into deeper experiences of love, intimacy and gratitude. Receiving compassion from others can be just the medicine we need when things get tough. Compassion feels good in the body and like a balm to the soul. To give it and to receive it elevates us into the realm of human spirit. When compassion enters the room it's like a deep exhale. And a candle in the dark. When someone offers us true compassion we feel seen. Like we matter. We feel co...

Why We Go Numb and What to Do About It

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/05/16

We all know that feeling... Uncomfortably numb. We're so good at showing up and functioning in the most stressful and chaotic circumstances. Most women I know are masters at it. While this strategy of overriding our feelings and our bodies to do what needs to be done helps us adapt and survive, it's not a long term solution. When we go numb, we can't selectively numb. And there's a cost. A significant cost. To live our lives to the fullest, we need ways of breaking the cycle. We need pl...

Happy Mother’s Day weekend! On the one hand, it’s a beautiful celebration of motherhood and on the other… well, it can bring up a lot. It’s layered. It’s complex. What I’ve found to be incredibly healing and empowering on my own journey as a woman, as a daughter and as a mother is to connect with the true power of mother. The Creatrix The Great Mother within. The womb. The womb is not just about fertility. This goes far beyond the biomedical definition of Uterus. The womb is our chalice...

Drama. It's everywhere. It's expensive. It's exhausting. It's more addictive than caffeine. And the crash is worse too. Society runs on drama more than it runs on Dunkin.

Oy! The voice of the Inner Critic. We can so easily get duped into believing the bs, can't we? Nothing kills our joy and pleasure more quickly than unsolicited feedback from the Saboteur within.

Your intuition is gold. And it's so unique to you and you alone. Without a reliable connect to your inner wisdom you can easily lose the plot on your precious life. Why you're here. What you came here to express and create. What the next step is for you on this spiraling journey. We live in exciting times And incredibly noisy times.

Sacred Beauty/ How to Claim Your Radical Radiance

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/04/04

Beauty is a loaded topic isn't it? Brings up a lot. Which is why we need to explore it. Beauty has been hijacked and distorted. Almost beyond recognition. And what we see now (pretty much everywhere in society) is the toxic mimic. True beauty is sacred. It’s is a reveal, not a cover up. Your essence dancing in your cells. It has everything to do with embracing your sensuality and pleasure. And nothing to do with "fixing yourself" or trying to achieve some kind of manufactured ideal of p...

If feeling irritated, wired and tired is your normal, you're not alone. If accessing your sensual pleasure and feminine flow state has been a struggle, again, you're in good company. We live in a world that makes feeling good in your skin a major challenge. Many women feel depleted, exhausted and done by the time they hit midlife. (Men too btw). Things are massively out of balance and it shows in our bodies, in our emotional state and in all of our relationships, especially in our most intima...

The Vital Goddess ·

2025/03/21

Perfectionism is sneaky thing. It's usually creeps in during childhood as an attempt to feel safer in a world that didn't actually feel that safe. In response to a confusing and overwhelming world (even if our parents did a great job), our young selves can easily feel uneasy and take on a belief that if we do things perfectly, we'll get our needs met. We'll feel safe. We'll feel accepted. We'll prove ourselves worthy. We'll earn the love we crave. We'll be ok. It's a trauma respon...
