In this episode, Liv Pavlov, dakini, tantric guide, and sensual alchemist, returns for a third round to explore tantric bodywork. We dive into what it means to be a dakini, how trauma and desire manifest in the body, and how presence, breath, and pleasure can become a form of medicine.
Liv shares her four-step sensual medicine therapy process, how to expand your capacity to feel, and the truth about the body’s innate wisdom to heal through sound, movement, and conscious touch.
