Depression:
How can Tantric Therapy help?
posted by Taruna Madhur
Depression is a much more frequent psychiatric disorder than one might think. Recent studies show that 10% to 35% of people have symptoms of this disease.
Some factors of depression:
- Family history;
- Limiting beliefs in the area of Sexuality;
- Negative beliefs
Situations linked to social pressure; - Recent childbirth;
- Stressful events;
- Drug addiction;
- Issues related to age, among others...
The number of cases of depression among women is twice that of men. One of the ways in which Tantra helps in the treatment of depression is by transforming the energy of pain into pleasure.
In the first stage we work with active meditation, this type of practice brings more vitality and disposition, as it allows movement, accelerating the heartbeat. As a result, we have the release of endorphins, a hormone linked to happiness and satisfaction. Another benefit we can mention is the reduction of anxiety and the improvement of depression. This is because, active meditation brings the mind into the present moment, focusing on the here and now and not worrying about the future. More than that, the practice raises levels of serotonin, a hormone related to the feeling of well-being. Meanwhile, it reduces stress-related cortisol. As well as physical exercise or even passive meditation, active meditation promotes mental clarity, as it requires us to focus only on that moment and allows a detachment from whatever. be the situation, so that we can better understand it.

In the second stage we work with sensitive massage, it activates the body's bioelectricity. It is discovered that the orgasm is not limited to the genitals, but that the entire body is orgasmic and allows an enormous quality of pleasure, the hyper orgasm. There is a major break in the paradigm that orgasm is limited to the genital region and sex. It works with the entire body, on the sides, front and back, also with the stimulation of an energy center located in the perineum (1st Chakra – Muladhara). The result is the discovery that your entire body is pleasurable and can vibrate intensely with pleasure. With the substantial increase in hormonal levels of endorphins, serotonin and oxytocin, the person feels invigorated, satiated and satisfied, carrying with them a feeling of fullness and joy. This massage breaks down the armor of negative feelings such as traumas, limiting beliefs, feelings of denial, etc.
In the third stage we work with orgasmic energy, linked directly to the yoni (vagina). If the interactant allows it, during the tantric massage treatment, women are led to the Yoni Massage experience. This massage allows for an expansion of a woman's orgasmic power through clitoral stimulation, using the most sensitive tissue in the human body to produce waves of bioenergy that spread throughout the vegetative nervous system, activating the endocrine system, producing a flood of good hormones and a extremely deep level of relaxation. The stimuli used in Yoni Massage are designed to bring new conditioning to the region's muscles, reactivate sensitivity, dissolve neuromuscular rigidity and, consequently, give a new meaning to the person's experience of their sexuality. To achieve this, massage uses non-masturbatory maneuvers that should not be confused with sex. There is no eroticization or masturbation at any time during the Yoni Massage session. Genital maneuvers exist to boost the body's bioelectrical production, not to arouse fetishes and sexual games. It is worth remembering that the entire nature of the work is therapeutic, designed to break the patterns rooted in a woman's sexuality, leading her to a transcendental experience and – in many cases – an experience of healing, dissolving problems linked to possible sexual dysfunction, improving depression, among other negative feelings.
