Passion can go dormant in a long-term relationship, AND, the flames can be rekindled. Many couples in long-term relationships realize after a few years that the honeymoon has ended and the initial passion and magic has faded. It is totally normal. Almost everyone has to find a way, at some point, to get back to the passion and thrill of being in love. The everyday challenges of life can slowly consume all the fuel and oxygen we need to keep our passion burning strong. Passion catches fire once again when we start talking, heart to heart, with each other. Many days, both partners come home tire ..read more

We feel passion and love for many different reasons. Love is a multi-dimensional emotion. There is a huge variety of people, things, and situations that can cause our hearts to light up in love or what feels like love. Love can assume many forms, can be found in many places, and can take on many disguises. The corollary is also true – there are things that can masquerade as love that are not the real thing. Love is complex. We can love flying, dancing, or eating ice cream! People say they love traveling, love Italy, or love a certain car. You will hear, I really love that film! Or, I love shop ..read more

This title of this blog is from the author’s note in my book, Tantra Goddess: A Memoir of Sexual Awakening, published in 2012. I realized that love was meant to be my number one teacher the day my former husband and now, dear friend, Charles asked me, “What do you want out of your life Caroline?” I replied, that I just want to be where the most love is. I want to dedicate myself to the work of Tantra and I want to be around you.  That’s how our relationship unfolded, and we still have a special and caring friendship today. The truth is, I have always wanted to be where the most love is. I ..read more

Today I feel moved to share the importance of not giving up on finding and creating the relationship that is perfect for you.  I am inspired to have this conversation today by a dear friend I have known almost forever. She told me, Caroline, I’m getting older and have never found the Right One for me. I’ve been to so many weddings of other people. The majority of my friends are happily married! I have followed the love stories of so many dear friends: I’ve been to their wedding showers, their baby showers, and to meet their new babies. She ended her sad tale with: I am the cliché, “Always ..read more

On Valentine’s Day, I must speak on the subject of love. There’s no way I can talk about anything else but love on this day. Love is my favorite subject in the whole wide universe! Loving and being loved is what gives life such rich, deep meaning. When I speak of love, I must talk about the art of receiving love, as so many of us find it more challenging than giving love. Both receiving and giving are the two wings that allow love to take flight! Today, I also want to remember those who have recently lost a loved one and acknowledge that receiving love is especially hard for them. I know ..read more

After the challenges of the pandemic, the many shutdowns, the uncertainty, and the anxiety, I felt strongly that I needed a total reset. The message came to immerse myself in some all-encompassing loving kindness –  just for me. I needed to find a place where I could pause in absolute stillness and step away from all my activity. I felt an urgency for a full stop in order to have a complete restart, a rebirth. Dreaming of a complete break from my everyday life and all my routines, habits, thoughts, and emotions, I started my search for where to begin. My vision was to have the total ..read more

Sexual trauma is an issue that nearly every woman experiences and struggles with. I am no different from most women I meet and work with. Also, I know the struggles that come from sexual trauma. Through my years of experience, I have learned that this story is painfully real for many of you. I recognize how this trauma can wound us, making us forever wary of certain situations and people. And, I am painfully aware of the handicap this imposes on us when we are in the bedroom with a man or woman we love. The Steps on My Journey from Sexual Trauma to Forgiveness My story today is about my journe ..read more
