Tantric Sexual Positions

Once you’ve mastered the Tantric art of prolonging the sex act, you may want to experiment with some of the hundreds of Tantric sexual positions. The positions that couples use for Tantric sex are as varied as the positions for any type of sex.

Yet all of the Tantric positions have one basic similarity: They all allow the couple to feel close and connected. In these positions, you will be able to look into each other’s eyes and touch each other to feel the security, trust, and love that comes through your Tantric connection.

Lotus Sex Positions

A popular Tantric position is the Lotus Sex Position. In this position, the man and woman sit facing each other, with the man’s penis inside the woman’s vagina. The woman’s legs would be wrapped around the man’s butt, while his legs are
either wrapped around her, or outstretched. In this position, a couple can have full eye contact. Also they can hold hands, or touch each other freely anywhere.

Clasping Position

Even the traditional man-on-top position finds a more spiritual way for the man and woman to connect. The Clasping Position looks just like man on top except for one difference: The woman keeps her legs wrapped around the man’s waist. This allows for more body contact, as well as a slower pace for the sex. The man does not thrust hard or repeatedly (as some men do in traditional man on top) because her legs are there to guide him more gently instead. They can also look at each other and touch each other, too.

Cupped Position

Another position is the Cupped Position. In this position the couple lies side by side and face to face, with his penis inside her vagina. But rather than thrusting, as a couple would usually do in this position, they would each move their thighs up and down and back and forth to create friction. This rubbing can feel good and even bring on orgasm. This is a good way of being sexual for a couple who wants a calmer and more meditative, lasting way of having sex. If desired, this can lead into gentle thrusting.

In any position, the couple should remember to focus on the feeling of the energy of the penis combining with the energy of the vagina, and focus on feeling the energy rising up through their bodies, into their minds, and out into the universe. The basic tenants of Tantric sex apply no matter what position a couple is in. That means that sex should be sacred enjoyed and shared by a couple as a beautiful act that gives great pleasure and brings two people closer together.
