Greetings from Dr.E & Freddy Z

Hello everyone and welcome one and all to our very first of many more weekly blogs. For those of you who don’t know, we are Elsbeth and Freddy Zental and have been helping couples and individuals tap into their creative life force energy with TantraNova for the past seven years. We are so excited to use this interactive new forum to share and exchange ideas about creating intimacy, love, and lasting relationships in all of our lives. We feel this blog space is an amazing opportunity to shape a cohesive community where ideas are exchanged and we can witness together what is possible when freely expressed creative energy becomes a collective.

We will use this blog to share information, insights and opinions about the philosophies we have been living and teaching for many years. We believe that the pulse of sexual energy each and every one of us possesses can often be stifled in our consciousness and our daily lives. We have therefore sought, through some of the ancient practices found in tantric sex and Eastern healing philosophy, to acknowledge, unshackle, and tap into our creative life force energies and express ourselves in the richest and most fulfilling ways.

For some of you the term “energy” may be vague or not register in the literal sense. This is another reason the blog space is so important to our practice. It will help us give insight to and demystify some of our most fundamental understandings of the human experience. You see, energy as we know it in the tangible sense, lives in the wires and lines that give life to our extensive technological devices. So too, our bodies are coursing with a similar energy. This energy can manifest itself in both the positive and negative sense and fuels us both emotionally and physically. A large portion of the energy we all posses is our sexual energy. We at Tantra Nova ascribe to the notion that sexual energy can resonate in two states, aroused and un-aroused. The world we live in typically has us believe that sexual energy only exists in the aroused state and that there is a very specific time and place for that desire to be expressed. If one can acknowledge both states of sexual energy and live additionally in their un-aroused state, then this place of coalescence and harmony can serve you as the birth-place of all creativity, beauty and life. We can then begin to master the art of relating to each other intimately and without fear or rebellion.

Our hopes are that this venue will serve our community with education and insight to the philosophies and practices we, Elsbeth and Freddy Zental, have devoted our lives and spiritual beings to. Consider this a loving and full body embrace into our dialogue and we look forward to the growth this will provide all of us in our lives and relationships.
