Want to become a better Bodyworker and take better care of your clients? This Saturday I am teaching a Tantric Bodywork Workshop in Seattle. Contact me for details.✌️

THIS SUNDAY, 3/20 at 2pm (PST) I am broadcasting a guided Tantra Edge session on Onlyfans Live. Subscribing to my OF will give you free access to the live event. Join us!✌️

Most guys don’t realize this but having your pecs and nipples worked is a heart opener. It’s one of the main reasons it feels so awesome. Good pec work is an art, and should be a major part of every full-body massage. And here is a tip for the receiver. While your chest is being worked, breath deeply. With each inhale consciously expand your rib cage in all directions; out the front, the sides, and feel the back of your rib cage pressing down into the massage table. This way, while the Bodyworker is stretching your muscles from the outside, you are stretching them from the inside. Understanding how to give and receive good pec work is important, especially at this point in time, when open hearts are needed more than ever. 🔥💙🔥

Hey Guys….I will be in PDX (Portland) creating Tantric Edging content for my OF. I will be there 8/25-8/29 staying in the Hawthorne district. I’m bringing my massage table. If you have an exceptional cock (doesn’t have to be big, just very pretty) and want to be part of my Deepstroke project, hit me up. For examples of the kind of edging content I create, check out my Twitter @powersofman1

Hey there, Fellas....during these isolating times, in addition to limited in person sessions I am offering online private Tantra Edging coaching. In these sessions we explore practices to ground and focus the mind, and then I introduce a series of Lingam manipulations and strokes to support genital health and to facilitate edging. These coaching sessions are private, secure, and password protected. If you are interested, message me for more details. Be safe and stay healthy.

This is a powerful moment in time we are all sharing. Even though isolation is key to getting through this, we are all going through this together. So pay attention. Take this moment seriously. But don’t let fear guide your behavior or decisions. Reach out to elderly friends, family, and neighbors. Help them get through this by offering to bring them their food or medications. Support local businesses. Send them donations now. They might not be here when this is all over if they are left on their own. They depend on the community to be able to serve the community. Take care of yourself. Go for walks, roll out your Yoga mat at home, drink plenty of water, get enough sleep. When you encounter someone you want to hug. Don’t. And don’t shake hands. But be sure to look each other in the eye. Isolation may help you not catch the virus, but it harms in other ways. Connection comes in many forms and is key for human health, growth, and survival. At this point it certainly seems like we will all be damaged in varying degrees by this moment. But I would rather be damaged together than in isolation. Connection is much more powerful, contagious, and life altering than any virus.✌️

In response to all the requests for info on the Taoist Lingam massage sequence I teach in my one on one sessions and workshops I have created an Onlyfans. So now guys who cannot travel to Seattle can learn this ancient practice about cultivating and mastering ***ual energy. To check it out visit:

Thank you for your support! ✌️

After months of encouragement from men who have taken my Tantric Bodywork workshop, I have made the leap and published an Onlyfans page. It is my intention to share some of the techniques and practices we explore in the workshop through beautifully photographed erotic images and video stroke demos. This way even if you cannot participate in the workshop, you can still benefit from long distance learning.

I am hosting my monthly Tantra Edge event this Sunday, 9/1 from 2-5. We begin with a half hour of jockstrap Yoga to warm up and focus. So wear a jock. Then we explore some partner energy work before forming a circle with chairs and taking turns edging the guys in the chairs. We will rotate around the circle so that everyone has the opportunity to work with everyone else. Then the roles are reversed. Tantra Edge is about connecting energetically as well as physically with each other. We also incorporate blindfolds to increase the inner focus and outer sensitivity of the guys being edged. This is a sexually charged, extremely vitalizing and centering event. It is the perfect way for Bodyworkers to re-charge. To reserve a chair in the circle, contact me. ✌️

One of life’s most difficult challenges is to unconditionally care about others while at the same time not care about what they think of you. I call this practice Empowered Empathy. In this time of great divides, this practice is key for reunification. ✌️💙💪🙏

Here are a few techniques to elevate masturbation to a truly transformative practice:

CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT THAT IS CONDUCIVE FOR FOCUS AND RELAXATION
Just as you would for a traditional meditation practice, set up an area of your house for mindful masturbation. Light candles, burn incense, or build a small altar. Whatever you do, elevate the space.
SET A TIMER
Even 5 minutes of focused edging is better than just getting off. But set your goals a little higher than this. Try for at least 15-20 minutes of focused edging. This will get you into the Cresting Zone.
COMMIT TO YOUR PRACTICE
Commit to at least 3 mindful masturbation sessions per week to begin. Once you start experiencing the many benefits of your practice adding more per week won’t feel like an obligation.
SET AN INTENTION EACH TIME YOU MASTURBATE.
Examples are: “I am fully present to what I am experiencing and feeling in my body.” “I honor all parts of my body shamelessly.” “I celebrate ***ual energy for what it is, sacred and generative.”
The combination of awareness and intention are key.

When we combine mindfulness with pleasure we break through limiting beliefs and find ways of accessing our whole humaness. ✌️💙🙏

Living in the 21st century where so much information is right at our finger tips helps us overcome the restrictive beliefs we have been handed by others, usually as a means to control us and our behavior. Once we understand this we realize we have a choice: we can continue to embody the beliefs we have been given by others, or we can choose to create our own set of beliefs based on our own thoughts and personal experiences.

Masturbation has the potential for being a truly self-transformational act (which is probably a big reason why it has been so demonized). But this potential is only realized when masturbation is performed in combination with self-awareness...basically masturbation as meditation. When we connect pleasure with mindfulness we engage on a level of whole humanness; we sync our body with our mind. In this way, the act of masturbation rises above the level of sickness or sin (as we’ve been lead to believe) and soars to the heights of the sacred.

(To be continued with some tips on how to masturbate mindfully).

In 1712 a London tabloid printed an article written by an anonymous doctor. The piece was called “Onania; or, The heinous Sin of Self Pollution and all its Frightful Consequences.” And interestingly shortly after this new malady was named, another “doctor” started advertising in the same tabloid a remedy that he was selling to cure people of said illness.

The term “Onania” seems to be inspired by the story of Onan in the Old Testament. Onan was the dude who spilled his seed and was punished by God. It has always been assumed that Onan was masturbating. But many respected biblical scholars have argued that Onan was actually ****ing the widow of his dead brother and pulled out before ejaculating.

So it is entirely possible that a misunderstood (and really weird) biblical story, and a self enriching tabloid piece by an anonymous “doctor” combined to create a societal taboo around the act of masturbation.

But fortunately, we are living in the 21st century where connections and causes like this can be identified and seen for what they were and in some cases still are: ways to control people. Once we understand this we realize we have a choice...

The next monthly “TANTRA EDGE” event is Sunday, 6/2. There are only a few spots left. If you are a Bodyworker and would like to join us, please contact me. Here is a brief description of what we explore:
We will begin with about a half hour of jockstrap Yoga to warm up and focus. Then we will explore some partner energy work before forming a circle with chairs and taking turns edging the guys in the chairs. We will rotate around the circle so that everyone has the opportunity to work with everyone else. TANTRA EDGE is a guided gathering of bodyworkers. It is about connecting energetically as well as physically with each other. We will also incorporate blindfolds to increase the inner focus and outer sensitivity of the guys being edged. This is a ***ually charged, extremely vitalizing and centering event.
Due to the nature of this event, all participants are screened.
Please contact me if you are interested in participating. ✌️💙💪🙏

Many people think their “spiritual” life and practice needs to be kept separate from their *** life and relationship with ***ual energy. It is important to stop and recognize what ***ual energy is; creative vibe, the energy of life. It is the most powerful, healing energy the body produces. On a cosmic level, it is the most powerful energy in the Universe. Nothing would be here in the physical realm without it. We wouldn’t be here without it. Think about this; If there is a God, a creator, this vibe is it. This all being said than why would we ever treat this vibe as anything other than what it is; sacred. And if it is indeed sacred, why would we ever want to separate it from our spiritual practice? ✌️💙🙏

Lingam massage is inspired by ancient Taoist teachings. Its benefits include deep relaxation in combination with heightened awareness which can lead to states of profound extended euphoria often referred to in the West as “cresting.”

There are over 20 (yes, 20!) different strokes that make up an effective Lingam massage. These strokes when combined in a constantly shifting pattern create a state of meditative focus in the giver and allow the receiver to edge endlessly and crest repeatedly.

The goal of a Lingam massage is to provide a conscious connection between a man and his own creative life force by route of his masculinity. It is a potent, powerful practice, and it should be shared so that all men can realize the innate ability to tap into this primal, and primary source of energy. ✌️💙💪🙏

The word Lingam is a Sanskrit word representing the core of masculinity; the ****. It literally translates as “a symbol of divine generative energy,” or “shaft of light.”

All over India the erect Lingam is revered with statues that represent the God Shiva. For many, the statues of Lingams symbolize a state of mindfulness and focus. But for others, such as Tantric practitioners, these statues hold a secret meaning: they represent the all powerful God energy within a man's body; creative potential, power and strength, especially concentrated in his ****. In Tantra, the male body is a temple, and his **** the altar.

Guided by this Tantric perspective, one approaches the **** from a place of honor and deep respect. In this way, the act of giving someone profound pleasure via his Lingam actually fills the giver with equal amounts of pleasure and opens a conscious exchange of creative/life energy between the two participants. From this perspective, even one-off hook up’s can become meaningful connections.

(To be continued...)

When we “tune in” to the power of ***ual energy, the energy of life, the energy of creation, we are tuning in to the most powerful energy in the universe. Think about this, if there is God, this energy is it. Nothing would be here without it. We wouldn’t be here without it. So to tune in, to cultivate and celebrate this energy, seems only logical.

When we “turn on” we are activating all of those long shut down natural tendencies and talents that we as gay men are born with.

The ability to view the world from a different perspective.

The ability to understand another’s point of view. To be empathetic to those on the outside because we know what it feels like to be different.

To be creative and push boundaries in art and culture.

To be caretakers. Just like the Berdache of Native American cultures. The gay men of the tribe were brought with the warriors into every battle- not to fight, but to support and care for those doing the fighting. They were also near the top in the hierarchy of the tribe, second only to the Chief.

Once we were peacemakers, and healers, and mediators. Our time has come again. And Tantric touch is where we begin. Touch is our way forward. ✌️💙💪🙏

With everything that is going on in this country and world right now, what is needed more than ever are peacemakers and healers and mediators. Throughout history, these are the roles gay men have played. It is now more important than ever before for us to remember this fact, to realize the implications, and to rise to reassume these roles.

But to do this, to be able to take care of others, even those we may never meet, we first need to take care of ourselves. We need to ground ourselves, we need to find focus, and we need to generate strength and balance. And therapeutic, sensual, and erotic touch are the perfect modalities to achieve these states.

When we are touched with kindness and caring, we learn to trust. When we touch others with these same intentions we help them learn to trust. When we trust we become open to being touched in ways that our society and organized religion has told us is taboo and something to be ashamed of.

And when this kind of touch is shared with respect and with clear intention- not to use each other to get off, but to work with each other to tune in and turn on- it becomes transformative.

To be continued....

From a Tantric perspective, sexual energy is the most powerful healing energy the body produces. On a cosmic level, sexual energy manifests as creative energy, the most powerful energy in the universe. Nothing would be here without it. If there is “God,” creative energy would indeed be the creator. From this perspective every sexual encounter, including every random hook up is sacred. There is no casual sex. ✌️💙💪🙏
