What is Tantric Mentorship? Will doing this mean that I am a “Tantrika,”?

Tantric mentorship is a sacred 1:1 journey that guides you back into relationship with your body, breath, and inner truth. Through awareness, presence, and embodied practices, you’ll learn to awaken your life force energy — not as a concept, but as a lived experience of connection, vitality, and love. Yes, everyone (men, women and non-binary folx) is a “Tantrika,” when they actively choose to be a student on The Path.

Is this a Tantra certification?

No, this is not about receiving a certificate nor entering the profession of Tantra. This offering if for anyone (men, women, non-binary folx) interested in studying the esoteric arts as a path of liberation, enlightment and aliveness.

Is this sexual or erotic mentorship?

While sexuality may be explored as part of your sacred wholeness, The Path is not a sexual service. Our work is guided by consent, boundaries, and reverence. Erotic energy — your creative and sacred life force energy — is approached as a natural and sacred aspect of embodiment, not as performance or exchange. You will be moving sacred life force energy throughout The Path and you will be guided in practices to hone, cultivate and celebrate your sacred life force energy via your Sushumna channel.

What is the Sushumna channel and is it connected to kundalini?

Sushumna is the name given to the main energy channel of the subtle body, or sushumna nadi. According to yoga and Ayurveda, vital life force energy known as prana travels along energy pathways called nadis. The sushumna is the most important nadi, running down the central axis of the body through the spinal cord. Individuals may only experience a pure and equanimous state of mind when prana flows freely through the sushumna, and part of The Path is working on releasing energetic blockages from your chakra and your nadis, so that you can experience transcendental states of bliss via your body’s own breath, and via running your own “vertical” energy.

Kundalini is the name of the energy located at the base of the spine that when activated, can run up the Sushumna channel and leads to a sense of ecstatic bliss. Kundalini MA is associated with Shakti MA, also known as Divine Feminine, and yes, we will be accessing and experiencing this energy during The Path , although this offering is not focused on awakening the kundalini energy directly.

Who is The Path for?

This journey is for those ready to deepen into self-trust, body awareness, and spiritual embodiment. Many who walk The Path are seekers who feel a longing for more aliveness, intimacy, and soul connection — whether single, partnered, or simply desiring to come home to themselves. The Path is for any gendered or non-gendered humans who are deeply called to studying Tantra and consider themselves to be open-minded, open-hearted and life-long learners, desiring for a new adventure of the mind, body, heart and soul.

Do I need previous experience with Tantra or Somatics?

No prior experience is required! You’ll be gently guided from where you are. Each session unfolds intuitively and at your own pace, with teachings and practices that meet your body’s readiness and your soul’s evolution.

How is The Path structured?

The Path is a six-month 1:1 mentorship, with sessions held bi-weekly (online over Zoom or in person in Chicago). Each session blends conversation, guided practices, somatic awareness, and integration. You’ll also receive practices to explore between sessions for deeper embodiment as well as connection directly with Josephina via a messaging app.

What kinds of results or transformations can I expect?

Clients often describe feeling more grounded, radiant, alive and connected — in their bodies, their relationships, and their spirituality. As you journey through The Path, you may rediscover ease in your sensuality, clarity in your desires, and a sense of union between your humanity and divinity.

Is this offering suitable for couples?

The Path is designed as an individual mentorship to deepen your personal embodiment and intimacy with yourself. If you desire to explore Tantric practice with a partner, Josephine offers separate couple experiences — inquire to learn more.

How do I know if I’m ready for this work? I’m curious but a bit scared…

You may be ready if you feel a quiet knowing that there’s more to life, love, and intimacy than you’ve yet experienced — and you’re willing to meet yourself with honesty and compassion. Readiness isn’t about having it all figured out; it’s about feeling the call to awaken. Often when we feel “the call,” it first starts as a “whisper,” a quiet ping that gets louder. It often can be surrounded by fear and a contraction in the body, as the body releases fear, shame and guilt, it becomes open to the possibility of expansoin. This is normal. It is very common to feel frightened before you embark upon a trip or a life-changing experience - give yourself grace, compassion and love as you navigate the doubt and fears.
