To those who are only minimally familiar with the idea of Tantric contact, the term can conjure up images of yoga experts entwined in impossible positions, barely moving for hours on end. However, engaging in Tantric activity is not necessarily reserved for the fit and supple; it can be enjoyed by nearly everyone who is interested in a more sensual experience than a 3-minute romp in the sheets. Tantra can best be described as a spiritual experience involving being in the here and now, rather than pumping away with only the end goal in mind. Couples who try Tantra may find that sensual enjoyment takes on a whole new meaning; for the curious, some simple tips are provided here. Because Tantra is all about sensuality, getting the body ready for the experience can help make it more enjoyable; therefore, some pointers for body and male organ care are also given.

Some Tantric contact positions for beginners:
Remember, practicing Tantric contact means being in the moment. With this in mind, these positions should be carried out as a means to fully experience one another on a sensual and spiritual level, without focusing on the final release – which will certainly come when the time is right. Whenever the couple is facing each other, deep eye contact is encouraged to heighten the intimacy of the experience.

1. The flower blossom – The woman lies on her back and draws her knees up to her breasts. Her feet can be tucked against the man’s armpits. She then raises her buttocks and spreads them slightly with her hands, presenting him with an “orchid” for entry. This position is intensely visual, especially for the male.

2. The jewel box – In this position, the couple lies facing each other with their bodies closely touching. The women can be underneath, or they can lie side by side, and their legs should touch from thighs to toes. He should hold her close and enter from this position.

3. The long-haired goddess¬ – ¬The man in this case lies flat on his back, and she mounts him facing away. She then lays back so that her hair is covering his face as he moves in and out of her.

4. The reverse horsewoman – This position is similar to the long-haired goddess, but the woman sits up with her legs tucked underneath her so that she can control the action. She raises and lowers herself on the man; this loss of control on his part can be highly exhilarating.

5. Striking – The woman lies on her back on a firm, flat surface with her thighs raised. The man withdraws from her completely, then enters in one, fluid move. This is repeated as often as desired.

Care for the body and spirit
The sensual experience of Tantra is all about being in the moment, but that doesn’t mean that men should skimp on planning ahead. Having a body – and especially a male organ - that is clean, supple and receptive to touch is the key to fully enjoying the benefits of Tantra.

In fact, the process of getting clean can be an intimate part of the experience; couples can plan a warm bath together and gently wash every part of each other’s bodies before moving into the bedroom. Soft light and music can add to the otherworldly atmosphere they will build before the real physical activity begins.

Men should also care for their male skin on a regular basis to prevent roughness, irritation, soreness and other issues that can detract from the overall experience. Using a specially formulated male organ vitamin creme (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil) that is enriched with important nutrients, as well as all-natural emollients, can help to build tissue that is receptive to the modulated rhythms of tantric contact.
