SACRED PLEASURE: UNFOLDING OUR HIGHER SELVES THROUGH PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL UNION WITH RIANE EISLER

join us tonight at 4pm PT/7pm ET

…“Our deepest and most powerful human yearning is for connection – for sex, for love, for all that gives pleasure and meaning to our lives.  Yet sexual violence is commonplace and the ‘war of the sexes’ continues to perpetuate misunderstanding and pain.  Why does this struggle persist?  What can we do to reclaim our innate power to give and receive pleasure and to find meaning in our lives.”

That short passage was taken from a book that was published 24 years ago, a book which I only recently got to read, but which - as has become evident over the past few years - seems to have been growing more relevant with each passing year… 

The book is Sacred Pleasure: Sex, Myth, and the Politics of the Body… N ew Paths to Power and Love… by cultural historian, social systems scientist, and best selling author of The Chalice and the Blade, Dr. Riane Eisler… who joins me tonight to discuss:

* The truths about sex that have been swept under the rug of religious dogma and scientific jargon

* The sexual myths that have corrupted male/female relationships over the millennia

* How & why domination & violence have been eroticized and even sanctified

* How sexuality is constructed differently in a partnership or dominator society…

And, most important of all…

*How we can construct a society in which the unfolding of our higher selves through physical and spiritual union can be socially supported instead of distorted and repressed.
