    The Psychology of BORING SEX with Shashi Solluna: Expanding The Window of Pleasure

    🔥 BORING SEX IS A WARNING SIGN How to Expand Your Window of Pleasure "I used to lie there wondering when it would be over." That’s not a confession. That’s a call to awakening. Most people think bad sex is a technique problem. It’s not. It’s a tolerance problem—your nervous system simply cannot hold that much pleasure yet. In this episode of the Boundless Body Podcast, Dr. Brian Tierney sits down with Shashi Solluna—Oxford-trained psychologist turned international Tantra teacher—to reveal why boring sex is actually a spiritual signal, and how to systematically expand your capacity for embodied ecstasy. ✅ Why "just relax" is terrible advice for trauma survivors—and what to do instead✅ The difference between goal-driven sex (exhausting) and nourishing yin sex (restorative)✅ How a decade-long tantric partnership transformed Shashi from celibate seeker to pleasure teacher✅ Why your pelvic floor holds the key to both trauma and transcendence✅ The "pendulation" method: moving between contraction and expansion without dissociation✅ How anger and grief are not obstacles to passion—they are its raw fuel✅ A simple self-pleasure practice (perineum + breath) that rewires full-body orgasmic potential----------------------------------------------- Sashi Solluna: B.A. in Experimental Psychology, Oxford UniversityTrained in Osho active meditations (embodiment, catharsis, therapy)Certified in Mantak Chia’s Daoist sexual arts (including dark-room retreats)Lineage-holder in classical Indian tantra yogaFounder of LiveTantra.com – one of the world’s largest online Tantra platformsAuthor of Tantra Made EasyComing soon: films Sex to Spirit + Tantra Unveiled"You can't learn this out of a book.

    BIOENERGETICS: Origin & Future with Diana Guest

    "Before the body remembers, the mind only theorizes. But when the body speaks—through eyes that won't meet, jaws that won't release, breath that won't descend—that's where bioenergetics begins." Dr. Brian Tierney connects with Diana Guest—certified bioenergetic therapist, international trainer, and living bridge to the roots of somatic psychotherapy—for a masterclass on Bioenergetic Analysis. Together they trace the lineage from Wilhelm Reich to Alexander Lowen to the present moment, exploring how character structure lives in the body's seven segments: 👁️ Eyes👄 Jaw🫁 Throat❤️ Chest🌬️ Diaphragm🫀 Pelvis Diana defines bioenergetics as a holistic, somatic, relational psychotherapy—one that treats the body not as metaphor, but as history made visible. 🧬 What Bioenergetics Actually IsA living lineage from Reich and Lowen, distinct from New Age appropriation — 👁️ The EyesHow we charge, discharge, and reveal character through the first body segment — 💑 Couples WorkEye contact interventions that bypass narrative and land in the body — 🤲 Touch LiteracyConsent, ethics, and the therapeutic power of skilled, safe touch — 👄 The Mouth, Jaw, and VoiceBiting, sucking, rooting—the unfinished business of the oral stage — 🗺️ The Character MapSchizoid, oral, borderline, narcissistic, masochistic, rigid: where we hold and why — 🌬️ The DiaphragmThe breath breakthrough that changes everything — 🫀 Pelvis and SexualityThe "sexual cornerstones" that shape intimacy and expression — 🌍 GroundingNot as metaphor, but as felt relationship with the earth beneath us — 🎙️ Host: Dr. Brian Tierneysomaticdoctor.com 🧑‍🏫 Guest: Diana Guestdianaguest.com 📚 Diana's Books:Becoming Grounded and moreAmazon Link 🔔 Follow for more conversations at the intersection of body, psyche, and soul #Bioenergetics #SomaticTherapy #BodyPsychotherapy #DrBrianTierney #DianaGuest #TraumaHealing #NervousSystem #Grounding #TheBodyKeepsTheScore #WilhelmReich #AlexanderLowen #BoundlessBody

    Wayfinding in Education with Christopher Daradics

    Why do the most profound learning experiences often feel like getting lost in a good game? In this episode, Brian sits down with Christopher Icks, a philosopher, applied linguist, and experiential learning designer, to explore why "play" isn't just for kids—it’s a vital engine for deep, transformative learning. From his work at the University of Oregon's CASTLES to his stewardship of Eugene’s eclectic Resonance Building, Christopher reveals how we can design spaces and experiences that foster genuine connection, wayfinding, and what he calls "vital surplus." They dive into the tension between rigid institutional metrics and the messy, beautiful reality of how we actually learn. Get ready to question the classroom circle, embrace a little vertigo, and discover why a "Bring Your Own Puppet Party" might just be the future of professional development. 🏛️ The Resonance Building: A deep dive into this unique hybrid space (healing arts + community workshops) and its three pillars: Somatic Attunement, Mind-Body Integration, and Co-creation. How play became the "engine" that keeps the space open and alive.🔄 Theory vs. Practice: The challenge of translating post-structuralist ideas (Deleuze, Guattari) and affect-oriented pragmatics into projects that are legible to grant committees and institutions stuck in conventional metrics.🧭 Cartesian Subjectivity & The Grid: Christopher explains how Descartes' grid created a "view from nowhere" that still shapes our institutions, identities, and how we measure learning—often to our detriment.🌀 The Power of Vertigo: Referencing Roger Caillois, they discuss vertigo as a critical form of play that disrupts our "compulsive centering" and opens us up to new possibilities.📚 Bateson's Levels of Learning (0–3): A brilliant breakdown using examples from throwing a rock to skeet shooting, illustrating why trying to create systemic change (Level III) using Level I metrics (like KPIs) creates double binds and pathological gaming of the system.🎭 Liberating Structures & Mixed Reality: Christopher shares his work on 'Escape from Bia Oxia,' an XR experience used for Fulbright orientations that teaches cultural pragmatics through an escape-room format.💩 Crass Metaphors & Creativity: A discussion on the role of "excrement" and "nutriment" in language and creation, drawing from philosophical and artistic traditions like Fluxus and John Cage."Play repeatedly emerges as the 'engine' that keeps spaces open and resists closure or 'capture.'" What's a time you felt completely "lost" in a learning experience—and came out the other side transformed?
