If you are on this page and intend to buy this book it means that either you already know some things about tantra (in this case I suggest you to discover deeper meanings of tantric love by reading other books) or you want to make a change in your life and bring something new and meaningful. If this is the case, I think you are in the right place.

This book is written in a very clear, detailed and simple manner, so that everyone will understand what 'tantric sex' implies and what it means to live blissfully. You will learn about the different needs you and your partner have and know how to satisfy them. You will be given ideas and tips about how to improve communication and how to make your relationship grow and become 'one' with your partner.

You will find out that sex comes first from the heart and not from our hormones. It will make you realise that sexuality and spirituality are linked.

I am sure it will change your life for the better and it will be a good thing in your relationship. Reading this book will make you become more interested in this field and willing to discover new valences of what 'sex' can be.

I absoultely loved this book for the many practical suggestions given. It's written in terms a lay person can understand even if they've never read anything about Tantra. Not only does the author explain the complete scope of Tantra, she gives you quick blurps of things you can do to get started on a Tantric path. This book is written in a style that allows all readers to comprehend a concept which could truly save our world. People need love and often want to connect with their loved one in the deepest of intimate ways. Let's face it, we all want to know more about we can have magical sex but most of the time it feels like there is something missing, like there must be something more. You will learn what "the more" is. Sex is something we think about often but rarely have a place we can talk openly. How is one to learn those very things that could give you the kind of sex in your life that you desire? Reading this book has the potential to change your life in a big way.

If you find your attention wanders and you really aren't in to reading for long periods of time, you can pick up this book and read for as little as 5 minutes and get something out of it. I doubt you will be able to put it down after 5 minutes though because the content is stimulating and leaves you wanting to know more.

This book is written in a style which makes it possible for anyone to comprehend the concept of living Blissfully. It could help bring us to world peace if we could all learn how to come from our hearts. It will teach us how to make love from our hearts. It will also help woman overcome old programing that sex might be anything less than our birthright. This book truly makes the connection between sexuality and spirituality. WOW

This book is easy to follow and gets you started in the tantric practice easily. The content is sequenced in a way that flows, and actually makes it easy to follow through the learning stages. Dr. Judy doesn't leave out the spiritual part, neither does she overwhelm you with it, as I've seen in other Tantra books that are a bit "hippie" and over the top. Spirituality is very much a part of this book, though understated.

I was pleasantly surprised to find a Tantra book by Dr. Judy - I have been a fan of hers since the '90s when she was on Love Phones. I had no idea she had any knowledge of Tantra. I love the way she breaks down the concepts - easy to digest for the greenest of novices, but with enough interesting content to feed the more knowledgable readers. Kudos to Dr. Judy for bringing Tantra to mainstream America :)

Re: the guy complaining that this is not "real" Tantra: this books is meant to bring Tantra to the mainstream, not to get devotees to an ashram. Keeping that in mind, it fulfills its purpose.

As for the poorly-written, one-star reviews above, please note: the purpose of writing a review is for (guess what??) THE BOOK. That's why the guidelines say "Your review should focus on the book's content and context." You should not be reviewing Amazon's technical flaws or Dr. Judy's perceived character flaws here. Unfortunately reviews such as these lower the avg rating of books that deserve better, and all for nothing because they arent' even about the content. (My 2 cents)

My hubby and I love this book and have enjoyed working our way through it. We work hard on making time for intimacy and closeness as well as lovemaking, and this book has so many helpful and enjoyable activities to promote closeness and respect between a couple. All very user-friendly and easy to understand. Brilliant!

This book is a good one. It will allow you to explore the limits of your sexuality, and trust me...the results are mind-blowing. One caveat though: if your loved one has any psychological issues that aren't dealt with, it'll be hard to max out this books potential. Other than that, I agree with this book.

I've never felt more tantric in my life. My girlfriend and I felt like experts after reading only a few chapters. They don't mess around here, but get right to the point with all the tan-tricks and sex-o-mation you can stand!

They even have a chapter on how to use my balding noggin for a tantric love spot. ...

People like Judy Kuriansky, Margot Anand and all the various fakers who claim some affinity for Tantra have distorted it totally........Why??? Because books and schools that teach SEX make alot of money.

They have taken something beautiful and turned it into trash. I know, I studied the same distorted teachings before I found out how off the mark it was. These people manipulate lonely people for money.

Tantra is a path to walk, not about sexuality, except about uniting the male-female within, or the yin-yang, dark-light, etc.
It's about becoming a whole person and none of these people do anything but distort Tantra to make money off it selling SEX!!

This is a not a review of the book. I met this woman over 20 years ago, just about when she was looking to break into radio talk. She struck me as someone solely interested in making a name for herself, with the least interest in the people she was advising. It is sad to see, people like this whose careers are the all encompassing monsters in their lives. It's all about money and fame, and this lady wants them both. I could be wrong. Who knows.
