Like a beautiful box of magical assorted chocolates that turn out to be sumptuous AND perfectly healthful and nutritious, Sacred Sexuality: A Manual for Living Bliss is an absolute delight! The material is diverse and tantalizing, chock full of high quality ingredients, and when you partake you end up nourished and full. Savor this book slowly, morsel by morsel, and don't be afraid to try something new!

Dr. Michael Mirdad has synthesized spiritual insight and practice with ancient sexual wisdom. If you are wondering if there is more to sex than a lustful quid pro quo or groping your partner furtively in the dark, if you have been wounded sexually through abuse, addiction or ignorance, if you have been seeking a way to integrate your spirituality and sexuality, or if you desire to steer your sexual life to the high road, you must read this book.

The banquet is set with an excellent discussion of what sacred sexuality is, how it relates to healing and an historical overview. Dr. Mirdad's treatment of responsibility in sexual encounters should place this book in sex education classrooms around the country. All the more reason to have a copy in your home.

This book is loaded with yummy surprises, such as the discussion of kissing and mouthplay in Chapter 12. Have you ever thought of a woman's upper lip as a meridian linked directly to her clitoris? Or a man's lower lip as linked directly to his penis? Dr. Mirdad makes sure we are aware of such esoteric, albeit useful, knowledge. The exercises and techniques throughout the book are numerous, feasible, explicit and tasteful. Many can be practiced by the individual, so the manual is relevant whether or not you currently have a partner. And what is more sweet and loving than preparing yourself to be a sensitive lover?

Sacred Sexuality: A Manual for Living Bliss is a wise confidante that will grow along with you. I keep my copy at my bedside.

Sacred Sexuality: A Manual for Living Bliss:
This book truly is unique. Like no other book I've ever read, it is a marriage of body and spirit. Not merely a sex manual, the physical, sensual, spiritual, and mystical are gracefully and tastefully interwoven throughout the pages of this explicit and beautifully illustrated manual of instructions for the blending of sexuality with spirituality. Additionally, this book is an interesting, informative, and sensitive blending of sexual physiology, energy systems, psychology, and the sacred art of Tantra. It's many clearly-explained exercises focus not only on increasing sexual pleasure but also on promoting overall health and well-being.

In "Sacred Sexuality: A Manual for Living Bliss", Michael Mirdad has put forth a true teaching of the experience of sacred sexual union. With respect, dignity and diversity, in a manner that is instructive and informative, he leads us to a conscious sexual awakening. He does this not from a merely sexual perspective, but from the truth of our divinity as beings capable of living bliss within the Christ consciousness.

Of particular importance is Michael's gentle ability to encourage us to heal our sexual wounds and traumas through the love of conscious partnership. All throughout the book, he stresses the importance of honor, respect and safety, with the ultimate responsibility residing in our own healthy discernment as we seek sacred partners.

With this book available, no longer do our teenagers need to approach sexuality in fear, trepidation or hesitation, for here is written a gift of helpful, loving guidance. I highly recommend this book to all who seek conscious union.

This book is a must and belongs on every bookshelf (not only tantric) of any family in the English speaking world and hopefully will be translated in many other languages soon. I found it very easy to read, quite enlightening as it combines the physical aspects of sexuality with the spiritual dimension of our being. This manual is not only for the sexual active but also for the celibate, for the singles and the committed in partnership, for the experienced and the novices, for the young and the more matured, for the heterosexuals and the homosexuals, for the ones having suffered sexual trauma and for the lucky ones who haven't...
This book covers the history of sacred sexuality, self awareness and knowledge, techniques for creating a blissful intimacy with the other, for intercourse and for "postplay" or closure.
Dr. Michael Mirdad has masterfully compiled a well balanced, clearly explained, insightful, profound manual to heartful, soulful and all encompassing sexual experiences. I recommend it all heartedly to every reader. I will order many more copies as a gift to my dearest friends and family members. This is my first review for any book and I have a large collection on my shelves; this is how enthralled I am about Michael Mirdad's teachings on this very touchy subject that concerns us all.
You can't pass this opportunity to easily incorporate bliss into your life, order your copy ASAP!!!

As a "Certified Sexual Healer", "Intimacy Coach" and "Tantra Guide", I am always looking for books to share with my clients on this most sensitive subject. Dr. Michael Murdad's book "Sacred Sexuality", A Manuel for Living Bliss has to be on of the most informational books on the market. Whether you are dealing with healing from past sexual trauma, trying to add more intimacy to your relationship or just trying to have a better understanding of your own sexuality this is a MUST read.

This book is fantastic. It will show you how your own body is a temple, it will show you how to connect your soul and the entire Universe with you, the complete you, the physical, the emotional, the spiritual and more. You will feel the real Love that is in all of us but too often completely closed or barely touched. Michael Mirdad brings you at other dimensions of your being that you never thought were there and he does it with much sincerity, intelligence and beauty.
A MUST for ALL human beings.

I support all previous reviews of this book..I will add..that as a student and teacher of sacred sexuality I've read many books on the subject but this one is my favorite by far! I highly recommend it to all of my students, men and women alike, because it is an excellent manual for actually learning how to experience and practice sacred sexuality: detailed information, with excellent illustrations and enumerated instructions. With a voice of experience and compassion, Michael Mirdad brings ancient spiritual teachings to life through practical applications for modern lovers. Do yourself and your relationships a huge favor by reading this book and learning and integrating the practices within. Your life will never be the same! Thank you, Michael Mirdad, for putting so much wonderful juicy knowledge into one book that guides us to explore and integrate healing, loving, blissful practices that enhance our lives!

This is the book you need on your bedside. It worth read again and again: first time a surprise: woo, a new planet. second time: so many advanced ideas! third time: follow instructions.
Compare to similar tantric books, this one is well organized and handy. You will be surprised at author's brilliant wisdom.

Sacred Sexuality was very informative in a non-threatening way. I have spent many years not paying attention to my sexuality. It has caused me not only to miss out on a part of my life, but to create imbalance in it. Following some of the simple suggestions gave me an immediate improvement my outlook on life and the role sexuality plays in it.

I loved this book. From someone brought up with a great deal of repression on the subject, this book and its exercises gave me a whole new outlook on the tremendously healthy act of sexual expression! Thank you Michael Mirdad for your great gift of teaching. Your perceptions continue to open my life, heart and life.
