Using the ancient eastern understandings of Tantra and body magnetism, higher experiences and blissful states are available. Cool Sex by Wendy Doeleman and Diana Richardson provides explanations, practical tips and easy to follow exercises.

Discover the empowerment and fulfilment of sex with loving mindfulness.

A Note From the Publisher

Diana Richardson is considered to be one of today’s leading authorities on human sexuality. She is the best-selling author of eight books on how, in practical ways, a person can experience a more fulfilling sex and love life. Born in South Africa in 1954, she first qualified as a lawyer (B.A.LLB) (University of Natal, Durban), and then she trained as a holistic massage therapist (ITEC) in the UK. Her interest in the body and healing prompted an intense personal exploration into the union of sex and meditation – the essence of neo-tantra – based on the teachings of Osho and Barry Long. Since 1993, together with her partner, Michael, she has been sharing her insights and experiences with couples who travel from many different parts of the world to participate in their informative and life-changing Making Love Retreats in Switzerland, where Diana and Michael are based.

Advance Praise

By far the most accessible and practical book on love and sex that I've ever read. As I was reading it, I felt myself changing positively, without even doing anything! Having already experienced the incredible power of mindfulness in so many other ways, I need no convincing that by applying the recommendations here, you'll witness your relationship with sex transform bringing greater pleasure, loving-kindness and intimacy. It's motivated me to continue deepening my mindfulness practice into the sexual sphere. I wholeheartedly recommend this inspiring book to young adults.

Cool Sex is a generous and expert guide to loving and fulfilling sex for young adults. This book arises from decades of Diana’s exploration into the profound relaxation, intimacy and deep pleasure states available through cool sex, and from guiding many thousands of couples and individuals to explore these transformative experiences for themselves. I’m thrilled that in Cool Sex Diana and Wendy are now offering this practical instruction and timeless wisdom to young adults from the beginning of their sexual journey, and in such a clear, warm, inclusive and respectful way. What a beautiful and accessible antidote to disconnection, dissatisfaction, stress and anxiety in relationships and in life. What a gift!
