What Is Tantra?
Traditional tantric philosophy and practices date back nearly 2000 years with origins in India. Tantra arose an an adaptation of the Hindu Vedas. The teachings are spiritual in nature but not religious. At the core of tantra is the principle of non-duality, which teaches that body and spirit are two expressions of the same whole and that our human existence is not at all separate from (but actually an expression of) divine source energy. Arising from that premise, tantra emphasizes the importance of the human experience as a means to understand and connect with the divine. Rather than transcend the body, tantra teaches us to embrace our physical form and corporeal existence in all of its facets. It teaches us to embrace every aspect of the human experience, even those we might be adverse to. It doesn’t label thoughts, feelings, or experiences as good or bad, but rather asks us to withhold judgement and meet ourselves with grace. Through curiosity, non-judgement, and acceptance, we are able to enjoy life to its fullest and find beauty in every experience.
Because tantra is body-centric and rooted in acceptance of the human experience, it is a philosophy that embraces sexuality rather than condemn it. Tantra at its core is not about sex, but there are branches of tantra that evolved over many centuries to explore the divine nature of intimacy and pleasure, so tantra is very much linked to the practice of sacred sexuality. Through the lens of tantra, there is nothing shameful about sexuality – it is a totally natural expression of the body. When we incarnated on this planet we were given bodies and these bodies were designed to experience pleasure. When our sexual energy is blocked or stifled, our life force struggles to flow. And it is often blocked due to trauma, conditioning, or even ancestral wounds. Unfortunately sexual traumas (both large and small) are incredibly common yet rarely talked about. Which is why this work is critically important. Embodiment is primarily concerned with bringing you back into your body. The goal is to help you feel safe in your body, comfortable in your body, and open to whatever your body is holding, experiencing, and communicating. Embodiment is about trusting the wisdom of your body – something that over many centuries we’ve forgotten how to do. Tantra is very much a “ground down to rise up” approach to healing and ascension. It’s all about being rooted in the lower chakras, which is a common struggle for many people. Through tantric philosophy and practices, I can guide you into a happier, healthier, deeper relationship with your body and your sexuality.

When I met Luisa at a workshop, I was immediately drawn to her as an authentic and powerful guide. I found her explanation of Human Design to be among the most precise and clear I had ever received, and knew I wanted to work with her. I also felt called to explore embodiment and tantra with her. Luisa created a beautiful, curated container combining her talents of Human Design with specific healing practices including Reiki, breathwork, and movement to facilitate a breakthrough in my evolution. Luisa’s grounded presence and wisdom created an immediate sense of trust and respect which allowed me to access my vulnerability and commit to some new experiences that were previously uncomfortable. Luisa is a connector – a person who put the pieces of my unique soul blueprint together both logically and intuitively. She embraces pragmatic knowledge and divine magic – which is exactly what I needed to evolve in my personal journey. I am honored and grateful to have Luisa as a mentor and guide.”
