“These are the old ways.  We are all descendants of people who lived in deep communion with place, and with the land, and with the incredible resources and wisdom of the more - than-human world.” ~ Darshana Avila (she/they)

At this time in our Earth’s history,  spiritual awakening is happening on both individual and collective levels as more people become aware and attuned to the energetic intelligence of the body beyond the ego and the mind.  In chapter 9, Sensual as Power, I share my own kundalini awakening experience.   

 You will also hear me in conversation with Darshana Avila she/they.  

Darshana is a sex and embodiment coach and believes in sex, intimacy, and relationships that are connected to nature and soul, rooted in justice and advocacy, trauma informed, and in service to collective liberation. Darshana’s business, Erotic Wholeness takes a uniquely relational approach, guiding folks into connection with the parts of yourself that are vital for enjoying satisfying intimacy.  

 
I have had the pleasure to be in friendship with Darshana and witness her power and knowledge as it pertains to the body and the erotic.  During my own experience of kundalini and spiritual awakening, I often felt confused and ashamed; however, I now know that Darshana was the mentor I needed then. She offers irresistible invitations to the listener about the beauty that happens in the body when returning to inner and outer wildness, and liberating honest conversation about our sensuality inside of a culture that often attempts to dominate or repress anything and everything sexual and/or erotic. 

 Each episode ends with a Root Awareness meditation.
