Celebrate Sacred
in Everyday Life
What
would it be like if we lived our life as a daily celebration of the
sacred? If every moment, every action, every interaction, was experienced
with intention, awareness, and joy? We'd like to invite you to celebrate
your own ecstatic awakening, a wondrous opportunity to fall in love
with life, yourself, and everything around you.
An
Invitation to Ecstasy
In The Art of Everyday Ecstasy, Margot Anand offers a practical
vision for what our lives can be like when we "allow the spirit
and sparkle of ecstasy to permeate our being." Anand describes
"Seven Tantric Keys to Awakening" that can open a doorway
to reveal the inherent beauty and meaning of our ordinary moments
and daily activities.These seven keys are:
Say "Yes" to life, in all its erotic passion and
ecstatic pleasure
Go with the flow of the life force, within and around you
Trust yourself, and allow your personal power to manifest itself
in every aspect of life
Open your heart in loving compassion to yourself and to others
Authentically express your creativity and your truth
Look within to achieve clarity and insight in your life
Surrender to your Source, so that you can know gratitude and
spiritual peace, and open to the ecstatic potential in every moment
Living
the Tantric Life
Indeed, Tantra teaches us to wake up and say "Yes" to what
brings us pleasure and joy. Choosing to embrace this path, which we
call "Living the Tantric Life," celebrates aliveness, heals
past wounds and fears, enables conscious relationship and sacred sexuality,
and ultimately opens the door to a deeper connection with spirit.
Intention,
Awareness, and Joy
In our workshops and programs, we explore three simple qualities that
are essential to Living the Tantric Life. These qualities, Intention,
Awareness, and Joy, can be easily practiced in every aspect of your
life - whether you're making love, getting the kids ready for school,
attending a business meeting, or in line at the grocery store.
Practice
Intention: Be clear about what you want from this moment - your
desired outcome. Give yourself permission to speak your truth, and
listen well to the other person's experience. This is the art of "conscious
communication."
Practice
Awareness: Show up and be fully present and aware of your experience
in each moment - letting go of any attachments to what came before,
and what may or may not come next. This is the art of "being
here now," in this moment, with this person and this experience.
Practice
Pleasure: Surrender to joy, embrace pleasure, and open to the
magic in every moment. Let spirit be your guide and allow yourself
to feel and express love, compassion, empathy, and connection. Share
your heart with another, and be open to that person's unique expression
of spirit. This is the art of "ecstatic love."
Every
moment is an opportunity to fall in love with yourself, to authentically
connect with that beautiful human being right there in front of you,
and to fully celebrate the joy and delight of living!
Enjoy,
Namaste, and be well!
