So what is Tantra
There are many ways to respond to the question “What is Tantra?”. Tantra can be explained as a philosophy and a set of tools and techniques that aim to expand our consciousness so that we can embrace more of life.
Many witness that Tantra is a personal exploration leading them towards freedom and awakening; the techniques used can allow us to step out of old patterns and behaviors that prevent us from realising our own liberating truth.
Tantric techniques will most likely challenge your taboos, especially around sexual relating to self and others. Sexuality in itself is considered a taboo in many cultures and using the sexual energy is a big part of tantric practices.
However, in Tantra sexual energy is considered the very source of existence, and our individual sexuality is just a small part of how the sexual energy can manifest in the material world.
A tantric path can awaken your senses to the pleasure, love and peace that all exist within you. You can awaken to what already is rather than make up or aim for something, and cultivate a deeper and blissful surrender to being rather than doing.
During the Ängsbacka Tantra Festival you are welcome to explore tantric philosophy, tantric meditations, tantric energy work, tantric sexuality, tantric kink and much more.
LISTEN TO YOUR NEEDS
Everything at the Tantra Festival is optional, allowing you to choose from up to 8 parallel workshops tailored to different topics, ensuring there’s something for everyone. Feel free to take breaks at any time, take a walk in the woods or unwind in our rejuvenating sauna. This structure makes it easy and safe to connect with old and new friends regardless if you come to the festival by yourself or with others.
What is Expected of You?
- You are expected to be honest and take responsibility for your own feelings and actions.
- You are expected to be accepting towards the other participants. Compassion, respect, and open honesty are embraced and encouraged.
- You are expected to keep your sexual relationships in your own private room or in your tent. There will be specific areas where nudity will be permitted, but it is not allowed to have sex in those areas.
