When two people enter into a partnership and bring couple kundalini tantric yoga into their lives, miraculous things can happen. A deeper spiritual connection blooms, and sexual intimacy deepens. The key ingredient in all of this is openness – on both sides of the equation.

Many of the practices used in kundalini yoga are not only safe, but they can also be extremely beneficial to your relationship, especially if you engage in them in a loving and sacred space. While some of these yogic practices have been viewed as sexy and intimate, sex is only a small part of tantra, which focuses on becoming aware of and whole with oneself.

The first step is to clear your energy. Kundalini yoga practitioners can do this by chanting a mantra, sneezing to clear the nasal passages, and engaging in various breathwork exercises. These practices clear the chakras, or energy vortexes situated along the spine. This allows for stagnant attitudes, beliefs and emotions to be released so newer ones can emerge.

Once your energies are cleared, you can begin to work with the energies of polarity and the yin/yang dynamic that makes up a tantra practice. You can do this alone, or with another person. One way to do this is through Venus kriyas, which are short, potent yogic techniques that utilise the female and male polarities and yin/yang energy to awaken kundalini and experience divine union.

In addition, you can engage in chanting and pranayama practices that activate and balance the yin/yang energy. This enables the sexy and intimate elements of tantra to emerge while remaining grounded and focused on the positive consciousness perspective associated with each chakra.
