Build a Home Within Yourself
Many of us seek love, validation, pleasure, and belonging outside ourselves. Self-Worship is a 5-week journey into building a deeper home within your own body, nervous system, heart, and life.
Self-Love & Healing
Transform pleasure into a practice of self-acceptance, emotional healing, and deeper connection with yourself.
Nervous System Regulation
Use breath, movement, awareness, and pleasure to cultivate greater calm, resilience, and embodiment.
Personal Power & Manifestation
Learn how to channel desire into intention, creativity, purpose, and the life you want to create.
Why Has Self-Pleasure Been So Controversial?
Across history, self-pleasure has often been surrounded by shame, secrecy, or silence. Some traditions discouraged it as part of celibacy, renunciation, or conserving energy. Modern spiritual communities also raise concerns about compulsion, pornography, and addiction.
Common Concerns
- “Is it addictive?”
- “Does it waste my energy?”
- “Is it spiritually harmful?”
- “Will it make relationships worse?”
What We’ll Explore
- The difference between conscious ritual and unconscious habit.
- When pleasure becomes compulsive — and when it becomes healing.
- How intention changes the quality of a practice.
- How pleasure can support your nervous system, purpose, and relationships.
The goal is not more indulgence. The goal is more awareness. Not escaping life through pleasure, but becoming more fully present to it.

The Body as Temple
This journey is inspired by the Shiva Manas Puja, a prayer that transforms ordinary life into worship.
“My body is Your temple.
Enjoying the objects of the senses is my worship of You.
My sleep is samadhi.
My walking is worship.
My words are hymns of praise.”
The vision of Tantra is not that pleasure is separate from spirituality. The vision is that life itself can become sacred — your breath, your body, your relationships, your pleasure, and your daily life.

FAQ
Is this a course about masturbation?
Not exactly. Self-pleasure may be part of the journey, but the deeper focus is self-love, nervous system regulation, embodiment, healing, sovereignty, and transforming pleasure into conscious practice.
Do I need previous Tantra experience?
No. This course is designed to be accessible whether you are brand new to Tantra or already have years of practice.
Will there be nudity or explicit practices on Zoom?
No. This is a live online learning and practice space. Any personal practice is done privately, with cameras and microphones off, and always at your own comfort level.
Do I have to share personal details?
No. Sharing is always optional. You are invited to participate in the way that feels safe and aligned for you.
What if I feel shame or nervousness around this topic?
That is welcome. Many people carry conditioning around pleasure, desire, and the body. This journey is designed to move slowly, compassionately, and respectfully.
Are recordings included?
Yes. Recordings will be available so you can revisit the teachings and practices.
What are the ways to join?
You can join Self-Worship as a standalone journey on a sliding scale of $111, $222, or $333, or join Portals for $88/month and receive Self-Worship plus future monthly journeys.
