Praise for the first edition of Urban Tantra:
"Urban Tantra is the most pleasurable, fun, meaningful, and
liberating book on sex ever! Thank you, Barbara!" --Christiane
Northrup
"Urban Tantra gives me hope that the world will become a more
sexually satisfied, ecstatic, enlightened, and inclusive place."
--Annie Sprinkle
"This handy how-to promises mind-blowing, toe-curling, highly
spiritual sex for humble beginners, BDSM aficionados and everyone
in between. Sex educator Carrellas is on a mission to bring
Tantra-the ancient practice of sacred sex, in which interpersonal
connection and transformative ecstasy are the norm-to the modern
world, to reclaim sex from "messed-up, sexually-dysfunctional,
judgmental, and ignorant culture," and to shift the urban sex
paradigm from recreational activity to a sumptuous, impassioned way
of life. Not that one necessarily needs that kind of ambition:
Carrellas offers ways to enhance any old sexual encounter (with
techniques like breathing, stroking, prodding and piercing),
techniques for solo play and countless uses for a trunk full of
toys. Same sex, transgender, and multi-partner play is encouraged
(if not highly recommended), and the text is peppered with
illuminating, try-this-at-home anecdotes. Pictures and diagrams are
whimsical but instructive, making Carrellas's cheerful descriptions
of unusual concepts-"gigglegasms," "rainbow rubs" and "the mushy
puss" among them-easy to grasp. A final chapter, on "Sex Magic,"
examines the power of Tantra to achieve a number of effects, from
backpain relief to a happier office to world peace; however far
you'd like to take your sex life, this friendly guide will likely
show the way."--Publishers Weekly
