The writing zone, that is. Following something of a dry spell of success with Serenity Base I’m cautiously gonna say I’m getting my stride back. Mostly because I’m making a conscious effort to write and not overthink what I’m writing about. Just get words down on paper and go with the flow. Don’t get bogged down by the nagging voice in your head that has become my doubts, and follow the course of writing it says you shouldn’t. Okay, that got a bit metaphysical there. I think I’ll stop rambling.

Another thing I think has helped is I’m getting back into a practice of mine that I’ve let slide for a few years. I’ve gone from having done no sessions for about three years to having two sessions of Tantra within the space of a month. I’ve shied away from this for so long because I’ve struggled to find someone to match the heights of my past experiences.

For those that don’t know, Tantra is therapeutic discipline of guided sensuality and pleasure if you can find the right person. For me the right person was a lady called Venus who had this amazing intuitive touch, who could relax and arouse me at exactly the same moment. Sounds a bit silly but she could do amazing things with a soft breath on the ear or kiss on the neck at just the right moment.

Anyway, I had given up on finding a therapist to match this service only to stumble across one with a twist. One idea central to this form of Tantra is sensual or body to body massage. Which is fine when I’m laying face up but face down doesn’t really relax me and didn’t during my first session. Luckily they also offer therapeutic cuddling. There is nothing more relaxing than just being held and cuddled. And that’s something we are going to focus on for todays session a little more.
