50 Misconceptions of Sex: A Modern Tantric Practice

by Alexa Vartman

Overview

By clarifying 50 common misconceptions, the book explains and teaches a simple practice of intimate mastery. The book brings the physical and mental effects of esoteric tantra within reach of a modern 21st century audience.

There is a universe of intimate tantric practice and transformation waiting for those who dare to go beyond the conventional, the safe and the familiar. Tantric practice transcends greed, shame, confusion, stagnation and frustration by opening a gateway to transformational experiences and events that otherwise require psychedelics or years of meditation.

For over 15 years, Alexa Vartman has been a trailblazer in bringing ancient tantric practices to a modern audience. As founder of The New Tantra, Alexa's workshops have affected thousands of people in over 15 countries. Alexa is a genderfluid person who embraces every kind of expression - from light to dark and from masculine to feminine.

In this book, Alexa shares her unique expertise for the first time with a larger audience, including women, men and anyone in between - regardless of sexual orientation or relationship status.

Be warned: the book is unashamed and outspoken. For adventurous adult audiences with a sense of humor only.

Editorial Reviews

Really good scientific explanations about the practices of Tantra, it's very entertaining and humorous and hard to put down ;-) (..) I'm recommending this book to all of my Tantra clients, it's such a simple clear understanding that I believe most people will be able to understand better than I had been explaining in the past.

Written with wisdom and humor. This book is a delight! Good sex education is seriously lacking in the world and this book is a game changer. Though the focus is on giving and receiving better sex, the ego busting concepts will serve you well in relationships of all kinds.

-- Sandi Smith, May 22, 2020

This is one of the best books on Good Sex and modern Tantra I have read! (...) Every single chapter has immense value, written with a humorous lightness, but the content is deep, down to earth, very hands on, inclusive of many aspects of human life and to the point in the most charming, compassionate way.
