My private sessions are off the hook with all the spirtual practices I've been doing. I blew the mind of my Indian student this morning. What a gift to share electrifying pleasure and inspire him to become a better lover for his wife - such a beautiful intention! Only 2.5 weeks left to catch me before I leave for South Africa.

You’re warmly invited to Consent Matters: How to Have Hot S3x without Harming Anyone - Dec 13th at 10AM PST on Zoom (available worldwide).

This gentle yet powerful workshop is available to my paid subscribers at www.patreon.com/SarasaTa**ra and is designed to help people of all genders, orientations, and identities feel safer, more confident, and more empowered in their intimate lives.

We’ll explore the foundations of enthusiastic consent—the freely given “yes” that makes s3x of any kind feel good for everyone involved. Together, we’ll explore:

1. What healthy boundaries look like

2. How to have a safer s3x conversations that set you up for success

3. How to communicate desires and limits in ways that feel authentic

4. How to honor both your pleasure and your safety

5. Tips to keep yourself safe using Dating Apps

TW: Please be aware we’ll be touching on topics such as s3xual assault and r@pe and you are welcome to take breaks or step away as needed. I'll also be building grounding practices into the workshop to support you.

This workshop also includes a straightforward, accessible explanation of how the law defines these acts, including what it means when someone has not consented to specific kinds of s3xual pe*******on even if they have consented to other kinds of touch.

We’ll look at:

1. Real-world dating and intimate scenarios where misunderstandings or assumptions can arise

2. How to recognize when a situation is no longer safe

3. How to know if you have been s3xually assaulted

4. Resources to support yourself if you feel violated

This workshop is especially important for people living in bodies that hold more social power—such as people with pen*ses—because understanding the legal and ethical definitions of consent helps ensure you never cross a line, harm someone unintentionally, or find yourself in situations where the other person feels violated. The goal is not to shame anyone, but to support people in becoming safer, more attuned partners who know how to check in, slow down, and navigate intimacy with clarity and respect.

Consent Matters offers tools for preventing harm before it happens. We’ll cover how to check in with a partner in ways that feel natural, how to slow things down without losing connection, and how to create an atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable speaking up. Whether you’re LGBTQ, straight, single, or partnered, this workshop honors the truth that anyone—of any gender—can experience harm and deserves safety and care.

You're invited to learn, connect, ask questions, and help build a culture where consent is not just a requirement, but a shared practice that makes intimacy richer, safer, kinder, and more beautiful for us all.

Flip the Script & Transform Your Thoughts - Dec 6th at 10am PST - https://mailchi.mp/jewelinthelotuscoaching/flip-the-script-transform-your-thoughts-this-saturday-17717566

After a deep dive back into ashram life over the Thanksgiving break, I've decided to complete a circle that I intended to start when I first moved to the US in 2005. I had heard about the Sivananda Yoga Farm in Grass Valley and wanted to do the teacher training then but didn't have a car and I didn't know how to figure out getting there from Oakland and ended up getting married and having a baby instead. Quite an interesting diversion for the last 18+ years!

These teachings can't be taught in a weekend workshop. One has to slow down and really steep in the practices. I'm excited to do just that in the beauty of the Bahamas. I've signed up for the yoga teacher training over my birthday. I will spend a month immersing myself deeply in teachings I've been studying for almost 30 years. True yoga is about so much more than twisting your body into a pretzel and this deep immersion will take me deeper into yogic philosophy and the scriptures.

I remember teaching a Hatha Yoga class to my students when I led my Sarasa Ta**ra: Bay of Dreams Retreat in Baja in 2022. I shared as I had been trained in what I thought were simple sun salutations, a combination of Hatha Yoga practices that formed the opening sequence of practices I'd started all those years ago. The students new to yoga were really challenged by these and watching the way Hatha Yoga is simplified and the postures integrated in the Sivananda Yoga system reminded me the importance of slowing things down so that they are accessible to all students.

While I already practice Bhakti yoga (the yoga of love and devotion which includes chanting as just one aspect) I want to be qualified to teach asanas (body postures). I already teach the breath work (pranayama) and practice Karma Yoga but there is so much more to explore. I can't imagine a better place to do this than in the Bahamas as a gift to myself for my birthday. I know some of the stories about the deities that I work with, but one of the things I love about Hinduism is that we never stop learning as the practices take us deeper and deeper and deeper.

I will continue my studies of classical Ta**ra Yoga and deepen my understanding of Sanskrit to inform my personal practice and support the lives of my students. Bessel Van de Kolk, one of the leading trauma experts in the world, encourages yoga as an essential part of trauma healing and I was reminded why this Thanksgiving.

I first started learning Hatha Yoga in my early twenties while living in London and had a very serious practice taking classes 3-5 times a week in Hatha Yoga, Sivananda Yoga, and Ashtanga Yoga. Long before I understood what energy even really was I was blown away by the way my body felt.

My teachers taught me to breathe doing inversions like headstands and shoulder stands took me to new heights. Even as part of my raving days, I would do shoulder stands in the clubs to play with the energy. I imagine that looked really weird to others, but I could tell the impact it had on my energy body and it felt amazing even while I was doing far from pure (sattvic things)!

I will be returning to the Sivananda yoga farm in Grass Valley over Christmas and New Year. This time I will be working remotely but still engaging with the community there, eating the beautiful pure vegetarian food that is made with so much love and devotion. Being there over the last 5 days has been the best thing I've done for my self-care and mental health in years. I will be inviting students to join me there more and more where I will not be teaching but we can all go and learn together.

This article zooms in on a detailed testimony from a former attendee, Cara Cordoni who describes the training as physically and emotionally intense, marked by exercises that put people into extreme vulnerability, and a culture where participants who raise concerns are told they needed to “take responsibility,” rather than being supported. It discusses the ethical and legal implications of hosting ISTA workshops in Cyprus, given the country’s laws around consent and abuse of authority.

I interiewed Cara for my patreons yesterday about breaking the silence on the cults of ISTA, NXIVM & OneTaste. You can watch the replay if you missed it at www.patreon.com/SarasaTa**ra (available to my Hanuman's Heart tiers and above). My patrons enjoyed it so much and she still has so much wisdom to share that I'll have her back in the new year where all my patrons can join us live for Q&A. I'm looking forward to it already!

I've been warning people about ISTA for years. If you want to see some of INSANE and DISGUSTING practices they do in their workshop including killing animals and eating them check out the comments in this post: https://www.facebook.com/Aum.Mani.Padme.Hum/posts/pfbid02i1W31pPBJDxuwekZoVsxCaJou28RctBCzVckADwgHcqrHD23LbnsqmKjpq1zvBHCl

In a world hungry for connection, neo-tantra networks promise healing and sexual liberation, yet media reports from around the world as well as “survivor” testimonies suggest that, cloaked in the language of spirituality, you might end up feeling exposed, unsafe and damaged.
