Sacred Sex:

Cultivating Open-Heartedness and Embodied Love

At CRIWB, we approach Sacred Sex as an opportunity to connect deeply with ourselves and our partners, fostering open-heartedness, authentic intimacy, and a full embodiment of love. Sacred Sex invites us to move beyond routine and into a space of conscious, connected presence where each interaction becomes a pathway to both personal and relational transformation. Rooted in ancient wisdom yet open to modern interpretations, our approach integrates mindfulness, tantric practices, and body-centered awareness to help you and your partner explore the deeper dimensions of love, sensuality, and trust.

In the West, there’s often a misconception about the true meaning of Sacred Sex and Tantra. While Tantra can include sexual practices, that’s just a tiny facet of the overall experience. At its core, Tantra is about leading a devotional life and embracing open-heartedness toward all of life’s experiences.

It involves feeling everything deeply without attaching stories or false beliefs to those experiences. It’s about being fully present and making conscious choices about what we say “yes” or “no” to in life and our relationships.

In our fast-paced, modern world, it’s easy to navigate life mindlessly, sometimes even becoming mechanical during intimate moments. Engaging in activities without reflection and presence is all too common.

To cultivate Sacred Sex, we encourage you to pay attention to your body, notice your breath, and understand what feels good versus what doesn’t. This awareness also extends to your partner, tuning into their responses during intimate encounters.

In traditional tantric rituals, partners worship each other as embodiments of divine energy, fostering an attitude of reverence in both lovemaking and daily interactions. Thus, Tantra transforms into a giving and receiving practice rooted in devotion, love, and open-hearted connection.
