A practical guide to overcoming suffering, reconnecting with your body, and awakening your sexual energy through tantra. The book that has transformed thousands of readers. Five years and thousands of readers later, the truth remains unchanged: happiness is your nature. Can you say here and now that this moment is perfect? What do you think you need to be happy? A partner? A new job? Another body? To stop feeling anxious? We live most of our lives trapped by our beliefs and emotional states. But happiness is not in the mind! The path to ecstasy, as Elma Roura shows us, involves accepting reality as it is, returning to the body, regaining our ability to feel, and learning to manage and be present in both pain and pleasure. The first part of this book is about how to get out of suffering. It presents us with an effective tool for identifying our thoughts, questioning them, and disidentifying from them. In the second part, the invitation is to take ownership of our pleasure and awaken our sexual energy, which is the most powerful energy we have and a direct connection to life. Elma explains how to live a fuller, more energetic, and mystical sexuality through tantra. We have come into this world to be happy. And this requires a daily commitment to ourselves. Ecstasy is our natural state when we are able to free ourselves from our mental and emotional ties. It is another way of talking about joy, peace, enlightenment; different names for the path to the same place, paradise.
