On my soul work & where I been at... "I was able to shift & move some energy in a potent & powerful way & I am reminded that #AuthenticTantra ®️ - the Tibetan Shangpa Kagyu lineage that is foundational to @authentictantra ®️ - changed my life, unequivocally." I am in this juicy ass transitional phase post graduation from my certification program: writing copy, reworking my website, integrating butt loads of downloads from the last year-ish/all my lifetimes, navigating middle school with my progeny (& what rises to the surface for healing for all of us inside this), holding space for the boundaries I used to trample & use against myself AND offering myself supreme tenderness & compassion all the while. It is a wonder to be a lover to myself, a parent, & a friend in this ever deepening way. #Tantra is a yogic practice & a way of life. My practice, as well as my pausing to integrate the benefits & wisdoms of the practice is an invaluable dance to tune of my ancestral healing & the validation of myself to myself. My ancestors be singing & dancing & back flipping as we create & take up all this space. #sexologist #sexualhealing #ancestralhealing #blackancestralhealing https://www.instagram.com/p/B7n35FhJp2o/?igshid=nzdj07eikai9

Each morning I pour love into myself. Each morning I kind & gentle & tender & patient I am. I am cultivating & tilling & ancestral healing is afoot. I, just I. I think I have reached the edge of compassionate regard, I am feeling in, dropping in, silent in, softening my gaze, my loving attention limitless. I love myself. I love the versions of me who loved conditionally. I love the walls I built around me, & I kiss each brick on the way down. I love the way my body naturally responded to traumatic events, protecting me, my biology on go, my body full. I love me today. I love all of those who came before me in art-ing, in body-ing, in creating & dreaming whole wild flower fields of study, of ancient holistic ways of loving selves & knowing & integrating & remembering. Thank you Grandmothers Dorothy, Mattie, Florence, Margaret, thank you Audre, & Octavia, thank you peers & guides & teachers all. #blackbody #cultivating #shadowdancer #sexualityeducator #tantra #alchemy #artist #blackartist #pleasureactivist #nonbinaryblackmagic https://www.instagram.com/p/BwE4P-ag-Rl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bhiy53xp3b8z

April 4th my beloved had a birthday. We 1st met at his 24th birthday party, so this also means that we have now known one another for 17 years! Last week our party of 4 celebrated Adam with homemade cards, chicken fried tofu, kale greens, mashed potatoes with gravy, & an ice cream sundae bar for dessert. I loooove to cook, so I took my time & a large chunk of the day to pour the love into the food reeeeeeal good. Sensually embodied, I chopped & sliced & brewed up some homemade whipped cream & hot fudge. I noticed that I wanted to post a birthday ode, but I didn't & chose to circle back to sharing celebratory sentiments when/if I had the space/desire to do so. Welp...Dear Community, This man is my partner & in the last years of our partnership we have made great efforts to drag patterns that may have served us at some point but which are no longer enriching. We spend our time reflectively listening as we talk about our internalized anti blackness & sexism & ableism & fatphobia. We talk about bodies & spaces & systems & investigate how these paradigms show up. As an artist/ sexuality educator my awareness of my traumas & triggers & isms has expanded exponentially & meant getting to know one another again for the 1st time. It has meant many many tender 1st date feels in this spirit & it is exciting & scary. It has meant sharing with this man, that I have been afraid of men for most of my life. This morning I shared with our oldest, Sage that Adam & I decided to foster our connection yesterday instead of buying the eggs or oatmeal we needed. She said awww & ended up talking about how marriage is a patriarchal construct... I know in my heart & soul that our reflection, and self mastery have created an environment where critical thinking, & listening are demonstrably key in our relationships personally, politically, all. Happy Happy Birthday Lovely Adam! Thank you for co-creating with me, thank you for being. #birthdays #ariesseason #halfmyrelativeswereborninapril https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv_xcQOgE0E/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xkgw9n223dy2

As my selves return my shores, an energetic reflux burns my palette & throat. I center my trauma & integration & I am amazed at the space that remains in the wake of juicy loving attention. I hold a venus fly trap in my hands. I am so tender & reverence is present in every finger. I examine the teeth, touching them with my eyes. The skin of my emotional body is raw, & this plant is harmonizing the ether, all curves & points. I am sitting at the feet of nature, a fungus gnat rests on the moss just so...there are no small moments, I listen, I observe. #yinyang #shadowdancer #venusflytrap #anxiety #trauma #blackbody #nonbinaryblackmagic https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvo5sOrg2N2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1s9x26vgt3wqb

Investigating my internalized isms on this rainy #friyay & EVERY DAY as I am asking myself where I am complicit & holding up ableism & fatphobia as functions of white supremacy & patriarchy. I am sniffing out my internalized anti-blackness & heterosexism. I am curious about my pretty privilege as it relates to trauma. I am feeling awkward & raw. I am noticing how many times I have used the word guys or ladies to address a room, or called myself or someone else crazy. Our language is riddled with violent syllables like knives & daggers, our body languages are othering... #healingisdaily @_rOsewater @afrosexology_ #repost #friyayvibes #blackityblack #blackbody #anxiety #trauma #complicity #isms #shadowdancer #lightworker https://www.instagram.com/p/BvmCcicAYaC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1u6p950jx93z3

The sun activates. My practice deepens. I am all tenderness & elbows akimbo. I am parts & sides & pieces & selves. I clear & integrate. I unearth the ingrained wisdom of my body & I feel awkward vulnerable raw afraid anxious angry. The walls I used to separate my anxious from my everything, my angular from all else, aren't there anymore. I am curious, for the first time I love my whole self. I pause, I dance, I cry, repeat. #birthdeathrepeat #theojays #messageinthemusic #blackbody #blackityblack #trauma #anxiety #cultivating *I do NOT own the rights to this music* https://www.instagram.com/p/BvgxoUkAk68/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=102vxrmkn4xnc

In bloom, in wilt, nature is so seductive... Last night I dreamt about a ghost from my past. I noted this morning, the dream slithering along the edges of my consciousness, that I was curious, interested, I observed the familiarity & joy old dance moves activate. #anxiety #trauma #blackbody #candiceanitra #orchid #orchidyoni https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvbv5-iAdZC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lia538jx308j
