A wise, passionate account of the pleasures of travelling soloIn our increasingly frantic daily lives, many people are genuinely fearful of the prospect of solitude, but time alone can be both rich and restorative, especially when travelling.

Through on-the-ground reporting and recounting the experiences of artists, writers, and innovators who cherished solitude, Stephanie Rosenbloom considers how being alone as a traveller--and even in one's own city--is conducive to becoming acutely aware of the sensual details of the world--patterns, textures, colors, tastes, sounds--in ways that are difficult to do in the company of others.

Alone Time is divided into four parts, each set in a different city, in a different season, in a single year. The destinations--Paris, Istanbul, Florence, New York--are all pedestrian-friendly, allowing travelers to slow down and appreciate casual pleasures instead of hurtling through museums and posting photos to Instagram.

Each section spotlights a different theme associated with the joys and benefits of time alone and how it can enable people to enrich their lives--facilitating creativity, learning, self-reliance, as well as the ability to experiment and change. Rosenbloom incorporates insights from psychologists and sociologists who have studied solitude and happiness, and explores such topics as dining alone, learning to savor, discovering interests and passions, and finding or creating silent spaces. Her engaging and elegant prose makes Alone Time as warmly intimate an account as the details of a trip shared by a beloved friend--and will have its many readers eager to set off on their own solo adventures.

Her search then leads to Moravia to consider the monk-geneticist, Gregor Mendel, and finally to Bordeaux for Michel Montaigne--the hero of this book--who retreated from court life to sit in his chateau tower and write about whatever passed through his mind, thus inventing the personal essay. Sensuality is a way of living that we may have temporarily forgotten but have not lost. It is a delicious, sumptuous feminine expression of joy. Sensuality is a deep-seated appreciation of being human and a full body participation in the adventures of life and love. It is how your soul and body move through your worlds and relationships--in play, delight, and appreciation.

Sensuality is not only sexuality, though it does include that expression. Sensuality as a whole is more subtle, more refined, and much more delicate. It is a way of living that is consistently expressing its delight throughout every aspect of life. This delightful, deep penetration of love and consciousness Feminine and Masculine is the perfect way to awaken, deepen, and expand your sensuality.

This can only truly be done between two partners who are self-responsible, dedicated, and sincere; who love each other truly; and who are ready to dive further into the depths and heights with each other spiritually, emotionally, and physically.

Yab-Yum is the union of the Divine and human masculine and feminine within you. The Art of Yab-Yum is a series of movements, breaths, and infinity loops that create the highest aspect of sacred sexuality and open us to a deep awareness of sensuality. In Yab-Yum, the two lovers generate an energetic Vesica Pisces that re-creates the beginning of Creation, before opposites appeared.

Lovemaking becomes a sacrament, a living ceremony of bliss, love, and power. This sensual act allows and invites one to feel the entirety of Self and to connect with the other at the same time. The other is not seen as the goal, as one to be pleased, adapted to, or needed. Sensual expressions and affections between partners will become spacious and emotionally heightened.

The desires of both souls are met by giving and receiving love freely, by relating to God and one another. The body and sexuality are ways through which we experience duality and separation, as well as unity and love. Yab-Yum allows the man to regenerate and strengthen himself, uniting his lightbodies into form. Yab-Yum allows the woman to embody the Goddess fully as she openly receives the man into her womb, her holy of holies.

This sharing of soul-blueprints between you and your partner leads to deeper levels of true Intimacy, as flesh merges with flesh, and spirit with spirit. Yoni and lingam come together so totally that neither yoni or lingam are felt separately anymore: Souls come together, and no separation is felt in heart or womb. All of the man moves into all of the woman and is totally received, naturally and graciously. Woman feels totally safe and trusting in every way so she is able to open up completely.

Both woman and man feel totally seen in this act. This bonding at all levels transcends physical, sexual, and spiritual programming about what we feel relationships are and should be. In this there is no goal, doing, or getting, no effort. With the right person, it will just happen. The technique and method is a way to guide the innate energy of attraction that lies between these two destined lovers. Please bring me the One I can experience Yab-Yum with. Please bring forth my holy, tantric companion that will meet me in every realm and dimension.

Guide me to expand my sensory awareness, so I may truly love with the whole of my being. Soften and enrich my sensory perception so I may delight in your creations. Please help me clear and heal ALL that stands in the way of me achieving this in this lifetime. Please bring me the people, situations, environments, and healings so I can do this. Sexual energy becomes sublimated and refined in total sensuality. It becomes a carrier of light to achieve the activation of the new Divine Human. Sit cross-legged facing your partner. Or sit in front of a full length mirror imagining that you are the beloved looking at your reflection in the mirror.

See yourself the way the beloved would see you. Bring your hands together in prayer pose and Namaste to each other from the heart. Become aware of every sense: Start pelvic rocking together in harmony, in rhythm with each other the man rocks forward, the woman rocks backwards , as the sensory awareness expands and intensifies.
