I bought myself this book years ago and loaned it out a few times, the last time it never returned... I bought it again to replace it a few years ago. This time I bought it for a young male friend who wishes to know how to improve his "preformance"...he loves it.

I found this book to provide more than adequate detail for a starting learner. It also provides recommendations for those who want to pursue the topic to gain a deeper understanding. I think it hits the mark for the target audience.

We got this book after reading The Multi-Orgasmic Man. It should be required reading for all lovers and a making love manual for teaching in schools. The authors provide details and step-by-step procedures for equalizing the sexual differences between men and women. It teaches anyone how to become multi-orgasmic and have a vastly richer, healthier, and more satisfying sex life.

This is a book based on Taoist ideas on sexuality and sexual healing. That isn't so clearly stated on the cover but once you read a little way in it is very apparent. The authors don't try to hide it or deny the Taoist influences in fact they almost go out of their way to praise it. The book gives techniques on moving and using the 'energy' within your body to prolong orgasm, have multiple orgasms and sexual healing. They also advocate the male technique of non-ejaculatory orgasm. The techniques can be useful especially as part of a sexual repertoire though I don't go into the whole Taoist belief and spiritual side as the authors. Overall I give the book a B. Though the title should mention somewhere that it is a Taoist sexuality book.

I believe the Greek reviewer clearly missed the purpose of the book and does a great disservice to the authors and the public by claiming it is a "wish list, and not a true guide." It is absolutely not "90% how in touch couples should be" and does clearly and simply give practical techniques and guidance. While the healing love practice that the authors present draws on the Taoist tradition and western sexology clearly dealing with how lovemaking can be a source of greater intimacy, healing, and spiritual relationship, they obviously were quite committed to providing clear and practical sex advice, as evidenced by its extensive coverage in the book. I'm a somewhat average male in most respects, although I would say I do live an alternative lifestyle. I do not have any specific previous "spiritual" or body awareness training. This book was astoundingly practical and allowed me to become a Multi-Orgasmic male in about two months of regular, although by no means particularly strenuous practice. It has revolutionized my experience of sexuality, and allowed me to leave genital focused orgasm and ejaculation goal orientation far behind, and take a quantum shift in intimacy and ecstatic pleasure for both my lover and I. She found it extremely quick (in a couple of days) and easy to learn how to not "crest over" and remain multi-orgasmic continuously without getting over-sensitized and not wanting to continue, as many women do after a full orgasm. This book can honestly change your life experience radically!!! ... I recommend a beginners mind here, and you will definitely be rewarded, even though there may not be an extensive amount of details in the book about the experiential progression of the practice, and even if, as the authors indicate, it may take up to six months of practice to get the hang of it. I just trusted my own experience as I went along and took what was valuable and understandable for me, and left the rest like water off a duck's back.

First off, I'm far from an expert on 'sacred sex,' which is why I picked up this book. I was particularily interested in the ideas of channeling sexual energy, and also improving multiple orgasm and developing the ability to be multi-orgasmic (as a man).

I should also note that I'm not generally a spiritual person; I don't regularily practice anything in particular. At the same time I am interested in and familiar with full-body spiritual practices and the Hindu and Buddhist faiths.

The book highlights the Universal Tao practice of sexuality, rather than Tantric-like practices, and does a good job of briefly explaining it's importance and foundations. At the same time, I sometimes found myself wondering more about the practice in general and how sexuality fits into the overall picture.

The chapters you'd think the book would touch on most of all: being a multi-orgamic couple, were similarily written: thorough and informative, but lacking in details and guidance. I do have some experience with spirituality practices, and have developed a fair bit of body and energy awareness through other activies. I found that I was barely able to experience what and follow some of the directions the authors were suggesting.

The book is also widely targeted to both naive and experienced users. However, in this broad targeting, I feel the authors managed to reach none of the groups fully. The instruction and guidance I bought the book for (sacred sex practices, something probably generally practiced by highly sexually aware couples) could be sparse. The information was there and complete, but it seemed to skip a whole level of pre-information one would have to know. Then the authors would explain very simple things you'd expect highly sexual couples to know, like the function and location of the clitoris, for instance: this is information anyone looking into this level of sexual encounter should probably know already.

Finally, the main thrust of the book is connecting with your partner, not being multi-orgasmic. After chapter 3, the book focuses on sharing energy, developing love, and a number of other very positive and beneficial practices that I'm glad I read about. Certainly, the authors do readers a service in not just giving them techniques without explaining their power and application. At the same time, this broad-based overview leaves the entire book lacking.

On the whole, this is a good book. It'll open your eyes to some new sexuality concepts, and I'm sure that as I continue to practice these concepts I'll develop a fuller, more spiritual sexuality. At the same time, I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone with no experience in spiritual or body-based practices like yoga, pilates, tai chi, martial arts, etc.: I would think one would have to develop some body awareness and control before being able to undertake some of the exercises.

More detail, more step-by-step, and exercises to get readers to that point would've made this an excellent resource. More information on multiple orgasm and how exactly to get to the point where you can feel and channel energy are, to my mind, critical. As it is, the authors are off to a good start but suplementation is necessary.

One final point: the book does include a section on intercourse and thrusting. Although this is soemthing a lot of couples can probably innovate in on their own, it is noteworthy in that this is one of the few sexuality resources I've ever seen that touches on the actual act of intercourse and the variety of possibilities there.

This book was a worthwhile purchase. It not only imparts important information, but does so in a way that is unassuming and even fun! I enjoyed the book as did my husband, and we have explored new sexual horizons through its use.

If you only read one book on sexuality, this should be it. This book will allow you to deepen your relationship with your lover and give you both a new source of energy that can be channeled into all aspects of your life. Buy it!

This book is better than chocolate! In-depth (no pun intended) and provocative. Also check out their other book, "The Multi-Orgasmic Man." Equally as good!

My husband and I loved this book! We found the information cleverly written yet easy to understand, and all of it was valuable to developing our intimacy and sexuality. We thought the exercises were useful, easy, and well-designed. There is information in this book for women, men, and couples, and my husband and I learned a lot about eachother's sexuality by reading all of the sections. I think the approach of the book is very accessible for people of all different levels of comfort regarding sexuality - especially because the book really focuses on health. In fact, I'm planning to give this book to all of my family members as a holiday gift!
