CAN PORN AND TANTRA BE USED TOGETHER TO UNLOCK SEXUAL POTENTIAL?
Intuitively, you may feel that watching porn and practising Tantra are probably at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to exploring male sexuality and elevating our sensual power.
We tend to think of porn in a very transactional way – it gets us aroused and gets us off – whereas Tantra is much more of a pathway to pleasure, understanding our body and really connecting with our sexual energy.
While Porn and Tantra are certainly different, they’re not necessarily mutually exclusive.
Marc Peridis is the founder of Orgasmic Men. Marc is a somatic and shamanic therapist helping men achieve radical transformation with the power of the orgasm.
In this video tutorial, Marc is joined by porn-star Leo Grin to demonstrate how we can explore the interplay between Porn and Tantra and how we can draw on both to elevate our exploration of pleasure.
This tutorial is a guided meditation.
“It’s an energetic, somatic and deeply erotic meditation practice…” explains Marc, reflecting on the tutorial. “You’re invited to alternate your awareness between the images on the screen and the sensations in your body for a deeper, richer and more transformative experience.”
The full video is 22 minutes long. The extract that we’re featuring here is the phase where you’ve established a focus on your breath and you start to engage with the sexual energy that you can connect to by stroking your genitals. It’s during this process that you’re engaging with the explicit images on your screen and using that to fuel and heighten the arousal and sexual energy that you’re feeling and connecting with.
Originally from Canada, Marc is now based in Spain. He regularly holds group workshops and one-on-one sessions in London and cities across the US, as well as working with clients around the world through online sessions.
Marc has been exploring tantra and spirituality since 2010. He spends most of his time teaching his own practice, Orgasmic Shamanism, which uses energy work and spontaneous movement to harness the energy of the orgasm for spiritual growth and personal transformation.
“For me, elevating relates to learning new skills, supporting men in ways to educate themselves, achieve personal transformation, develop spiritual practice that relates to sex, and a lot more…” explains Marc.
If you’d like to see more of Marc’s work in action, he has 18 full-length videos included in the current library of videos available through your Orgasmic Men subscription.
