Mal Weeraratne is a British author, therapist and founder of the Tantric Journey School of Healing and Awakening, which offers professional training courses and workshops in London and around the world. He is known for his expertise in the field of tantra and has written several books on the subject, including “Emotional Detox Through Bodywork” and “How to Free Your Mind – The Practice of Natural Mindfulness”.

Mal Weeraratne’s approach to tantra is based on the principles of Taoism and Tantra, which underscore the connection between the body, mind and spirit and pursue the use energy as a tool for healing and spiritual growth. He believes that trauma and emotional blockages can be healed through tantric bodywork, which involves releasing emotional and physical tension through a combination of deep tissue massage, breathwork and emotional release techniques.

Taoism and Tantra are two distinct philosophical and spiritual traditions that originated in China and India, respectively. While they have different roots and historical contexts, there are some principles that they share. Both traditions emphasise the unity of all things and the interconnectedness of the universe. They reject the idea of a clear boundary between the self and the world. Both Taoism and Tantra place a great deal of importance on personal practice and experience. They see intellectual understanding as limited and incomplete without direct experience.

Both traditions take a holistic approach to human experience, recognising the importance of physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of life and of being in the moment and flowing with life rather than trying to control or resist it.

In both traditions, sexuality is viewed as an important part of the human experience and as a potential path to spiritual growth. Taoism and Tantra place a high value on nature and see it as a source of wisdom and inspiration. Personal growth and self-cultivation are seen as means of achieving spiritual transformation.

While there are some similarities between Taoism and Tantra, it is important to know that they are distinct traditions with their own unique beliefs and practices. Tantric Journey blends elements of Taoism and Tantra practices to promote healing and growth. It is based on the belief that the body holds emotional and energetic blockages that can be released through a combination of physical and emotional techniques. In Mal Weeraratne’s Tantric Journey, Taoist and Tantric principles are combined to create a holistic approach to healing. The therapy incorporates various techniques, including deep tissue bodywork, breathwork, and visualisation, to release blocked energy and emotions.

Taoist principles are used to ground the client, connecting them with the earth and helping them to release any negative emotions. Tantric practices are used to help clients release blocked energy and emotions using breathwork and touch. The therapy incorporates a form of bodywork called “yoni massage” (for women) and “lingam massage” (for men), which are designed to help clients connect to release any blocked emotions in the pelvic area. The blending of Taoism and Tantra in Tantric Journey creates a compelling approach to healing that aims to connect the client with their body, emotions and energy, promoting a sense of balance and harmony in all areas of life.
