Tantric Energy Bodywork combines the sensual Body Massage with various tantric principles. The intention of our Tantric Energy Bodywork sessions is to explore in a mutually dynamic interactive format. In this session the client is a loving participant and together we embody Shiva and Shakti, God and Goddess, unveiling our divine essence. We will play with many tantric yoga poses ~ beginning by opening our hearts through eye-gazing and dropping into a rythmic belly breath, while sitting entwined in yab-yum. After dropping into the moment, we will engage in conversation about how the session will unfold and any specific tantric principles that you may want to experience and learn from. Here I would like to express that our Temple's Tantric Sessions are more experiential than conversational, unless verbal coaching is specifically requested. We will explain in the beginning of the session how to follow the therapist's breath & gestures. And of course, we will use words when necessary! ...Yet, it's so nice to diss

Canton author George Ivey will read from and sign his book, Up River: A Novel of Attempted Restoration. Up River explores themes of loss, recovery, and renewal through protagonist Peter Bailey’s struggle to save the endangered Akwanee River.
“Up River shows what it is like to go against the stream in a good cause. George Ivey gives us a fascinating story, filled with folks friendly and threatening, cheery and cranky. The subjects this fast-paced novel addresses are as important as they are plentiful. Everyone who has ever been a stranger in a new place will sympathize with Peter Bailey; everyone who has tried to beat long odds will cheer for him. And anyone who reads Up River will learn how perilous is the balance of nature—and human nature. Entrancing.” -Fred Chappell
