Try a little tantra tonight

Tantric sex is nothing to be scared of. It's not about doing it for hours on end or in strange positions (although who am I to stop you?).

In fact, it's an ancient art designed to help awaken and share your sexual energy. Pelvic bouncing is a simple but surprisingly effective tantric exercise you can try together tonight.

- Lie on your back, feet flat on the floor or bed, knees raised. With your arms by your sides, palms up, breathe deeply for a few minutes, letting all your tension go.

- Now, press your heels into the floor and raise your hips.

- Bounce your pelvis up and down, rhythmically - you can play some lively music if it helps. Go at whatever speed you like.

- It's hard at first and you may feel like giving up, but hang on in there. Soon the momentum will build and it'll become almost effortless.

Pelvic bouncing charges your whole body energy and makes you feel joyous and alive (not to mention ready for anything...).
