Now any woman can dramatically increase her pleasure with this holistic guide to female sexuality that combines the sexual wisdom of the East with the best of Western medical research. The book brings together the secrets of an Eastern spiritual master, Mantak Chia, the leading teacher of Taoist sexuality, and the health knowledge of a Western physician, Rachel Carlton Abrams, MD.
Through a series of tailor-made techniques and exercises that will increase chi or "life energy," readers will learn how to reach intense, prolonged, whole-body orgasms. This is a book to help all women reach their true sexual potential—and discover a more blissful and fulfilling way of living in their bodies.
Mantak Chia is a Taoist Master. He is best known for teaching his Taoist practices under the names of Healing Tao, Tao Yoga, Universal Healing Tao System and Chi Kung. Throughout decades of teaching, he has run numerous workshops, written a series of books, and published a number of training videos. For this reason, some people call him an author, a teacher or a healer. He views himself primarily as a teacher, "who helps his students empower themselves through cultivation of their chi energy."

The Multi-Orgasmic Woman by Chia Mantak and Rachel Carlton Adams is the first Chia book I read years ago, but having posted a review of the Man book, I felt obligated to review the Female book, because it is just as good.
Master Chia is a renowned teacher in New York and all over the world at Universal Healing Tao Centers leveraging the body’s life energy, Chi, and Taoist living in harmony.
From this he has generated a vast number of books, teachings, and videos on self-healing and life enhancement.
When women, and men, break away from anxiety and suppression and ignite your creativity and enthusiasm you can improve your receptivity to vitality, grounding and pleasurable experiences.
This book is instructional and if adhered to, allows room for increased enjoyment and recovery during romantic encounters. Not unlike Tai Chi exercises which teach coordination and relaxation, learning how to free your anxieties can open the mind and body to more pleasurable for sexual activities.
This book is a great book to read and re-read to improve romantic life.
Learn about techniques to generate, contain, and spiral the life force, Chi, energy in your sacred body temple... allow it to feed into all aspects of your life to help you be and feel vital, energetic, pleased, and grounded. You can also look for the Multi-Orgasmic Man and the Multi-Orgasmic Couple. All books are based on Tibetan taoist teachings and practices. Getting in touch with this energy in my body is like getting in touch with a long lost part of myself, and now I can feel it fueling my creativity and enthusiasm for life. It is all about your natural state of health... God given and deserved... I especially want women to read this who have had their sexuality suppressed or who have been abused sexually in anyway (big or seemingly small). I support all of you who embark on this so sacred of journeys!!
I know what you're thinking, "Wow this chick must be horny!" While I will neither confirm nor deny such accusations I will say this book is so much more than sex, although it does discuss the topic as well. For anyone who's looking to practice being present, while being mindful one's intention, this book is for you! Its all about self-appreciation, self-love, and rediscovering what gets you OUT of bed in the morning, not just how to liven up what happens when you're in it (or in other locations if thats your thing).
This read was very different from what I thought and hoped it would be. Wasn’t for me… but it’s great for a goddess who is searching for how to do self exploration and be comfortable with their body.
i am currently researching sex guides for a writing project of my own called sex for boys - sex positive guide for young men (there seems to be lots of books out there for girls, but not for boys - and there are countless other reasons for writing this that i won't go into here) ...
this book does a nice job of laying out practices for women to achieve greater sexual satisfaction, but there are a lot of clumsy tests where the reader must evaluate their sexual attitudes and practices ... that's not a bad thing in itself, but the reader's "scores" get responses that can read a bit patronizing - despite the claim that the book is non-biased and for everyone. the book offers a background of zen practice that goes along with the exercises - which is fine, but the tone of the philosophical writing colors the book in a way that bugs me.
En alguna etapa de la vida es bueno leer uno o unos libros de otro tipo, y, pues este libro cayó en mis manos. Fue escrito por una mujer, Rachel Carlton, pero quien le dió la idea, y por lo tanto la coautoría es Mantak Chia, un experto en disciplinas orientales occidentalizadas. Enseña a trabajar y administrar la energía interna. No solamente es la energía que se libera durante el acto sexual, y que deja agotada a la mujer. También hay otros tipos de energía que se liberan, como el de la ansiedad o el enojo. Este libro enseña técnicas para aprovechar la energía y darnos más fuerzas, en lugar de simplemente liberarlas. La visualización del flujo de la energía a través del cuerpo, por ejemplo, es una técnica que si se practica puede ayudar a mantener el ritmo y las actividades del día en un nivel elevado. Me gustó mucho este libro y lo recomiendo a todas las mujeres.
This book is fantastic and highly valuable. The information contained in this book is essential for women healing any trauma or unwellness (not just sexual). The reason that I gave it 4(.5) stars is because I disagree with the idea of suggesting that people do whatever they like sexually (without caveat). I believe when we are not properly informed (and/or innocent), the idea that we should be free to express ourselves however we like sexually can lead unknowing people into dangerous and painful places. I understand why the author says this (as it is the norm of our day), and do not think it takes away from the value of the work, however I think it is very important to encourage people to fully understand what engaging in sexual activity involves past the physical and into the emotional and spiritual realms. With this note of caution I highly recommend this book.
A good start for those ladies out there who want more bang for their buck! I think it is a comprehensive look at women's sexuality and happiness in life and in love.
Let me just say that this book is only the tip of the iceberg. If you are really interested in deeper connection with yourself and your own pleasure this book gets you started. If you are already somewhat educated or you spend a lot of time in Good Vibrations, I would say you could skip this book all together.
this wasn't as "how-to" as I thought it would be... i didn't read it all, but most of it seemed to be about "how to feel comfortable with your body," something i think women who decide to read this will already be way past.
I am really interested in working with energies and it was quite interesting to read how healing sexual energy is for the body, however, I am a woman, who has no problems with achieving an orgasm. Thankfully, I have no struggle with that but it was still informative to read. It really haven't kept my attention and interest at some parts but I don't know. I want to try certain exercises, such as healing with the sounds and perhaps the orbit exercise. Not even gonna lie, some parts got me shocked, where I was just telling myself "My body can do that?" so I really did enjoy getting some information on this part. I believe not many women are educated in this area and they definitely should be so I do recommend reading it.
In het Nederlands gelezen. Ik heb echt al van alles gedaan op het gebied van vrouwen en seksualiteit, maar dit boek gaf me al in het tweede hoofdstuk een paar concrete aanknopingspunten voor het nóg verder verbeteren van mijn eigen seksleven – en het boek werd verderop alleen maar beter en sappiger. Lekker los geschreven, gemakkelijk leesbaar en heerlijk ondogmatisch. Een soort “Tao-sex for dummies”, zonder dat dit overigens afbreuk doet aan de diepgang. Ze raadt bijvoorbeeld aan alle oefeningen een keer te doen en dan te kijken welke bij je passen en ze zelf zo te veranderen dat ze een onderdeel van je leven kunnen worden. Een boek en vrouw naar mijn hart dus ;-)
beautiful book every woman should read, but not only read, also practice. I believe the practical exercises in the book are the most useful ones, and I have just started exploring the first few. Thank you!
