For centuries, Western culture misunderstood, shamed, and even demonized female pl3asure. From calling the cl!toris “the devil’s teat” to Freud labeling it “infantile,” history has not been kind to v^lva owners.
But now the pendulum has swung the other way - some claim the cl!toris (or the CUV complex) is the sole source of orga$m.
Science says otherwise. The body holds many orga$mic pathways - c3rvical, uterine, G-**ot, U-spot, A-spot, skin, even the vagus nerve creating orga$ms in women with complete spinal cord injuries.
It’s time to reclaim the WHOLE pl3asure map. 🌺

said it best…
“The experience of pl3asure allows our emotional and physical bodies to heal by supporting the entire mechanism of mind/body/spirit in letting go of the unconscious internal tension, which results in body armoring.
Our natural response to the experience of pl3asure is to relax, release, yield, and open. When we allow ourselves to fully feel our own pl3asure, we give the body a chance to heal itself by allowing the cellular tissue to purge the residue of mental, emotional, and physical pain that has been trapped there for so long, and often without us even being aware of it.
By relaxing, releasing, yielding, and opening through pl3asure, we become a conduit for Life to flow to and flow through.”

Many people seek Neo-Ta**ra and s3ggsual healing for growth, connection, or trauma recovery. But what happens when the people claiming to “heal” become the source of harm?
In this episode, ISTA survivor advocate Cara Cordoni shares what she learned from reviewing dozens of survivor reports, witnessing harmful dynamics firsthand, and trying - unsuccessfully - to support real repair processes within ISTA leadership.
We explore:
⚠️ coercive control in spiritual communities
⚠️ blurred boundaries framed as “breakthroughs”
⚠️ misuse of trauma-informed language
⚠️ the gap between promises of change and actual accountability
This is an eye-opening look at how even well-branded “conscious” organizations can perpetuate harm behind the scenes.
🌿 May these stories help others recognize the signs sooner - and find safer, more compassionate spaces.

“Is ISTA a cult?”
In our latest episode of S** Is Medicine*, we dive into a powerful and deeply needed conversation with survivor advocate
Cara speaks candidly about her experience inside ISTA trainings, the reports of coercion and manipulation she encountered, and her 2-year attempt to support meaningful accountability within the organization.
This conversation is for anyone navigating “s3ggs-positive,” “trauma-informed,” or “spiritual” communities - and wanting to recognize the red flags that can hide behind promises of healing and liberation.
✨ If you’ve ever wondered how high-control dynamics can take root in transformational spaces, this episode is essential listening.

We are thrilled to announce that as of September 26th, 2019, The Institute of Authentic Ta**ra Education is the only government accredited school for Ta***ic s*xual healing in the world! The Authentic Ta**ra® Certification Program is the only Ta**ra certification program in the WORLD that has been reviewed and approved by the registrar of the Private Training Institutions Branch of the Ministry of Advanced Education, Skills & Training.
The Institute of Authentic Ta**ra Education provides professional certification training, personal coaching & online classes in authentic lineage-based Ta***ic healing methods. Graduates of our certification program hold the professional occupational code of Practitioners of natural healing.
The Institute of Authentic Ta**ra Education is dedicated to providing ethical and effective Ta***ic instruction to individuals and communities who are seeking a healthy, balanced, and sacred approach to s*xuality and holistic healing. Our methods are rooted in Tibetan Ta***ic Buddhist teachings designed to catalyze profound healing and transformation in the body, mind, emotions, and s*x.
These ancient lineage-based Tibetan Ta***ic practices are woven with Taoist methods, yogic breathing, somatic science, and compassionate communication (NVC), to produce a potent and effective modality for s*xual healing and personal realization. Unlike many styles of yoga and meditation, the modality of Authentic Ta**ra® embraces human s*xuality and its innate potential for healing, when it is honored as sacred and practiced with awareness, compassion, and loving-kindness
