Praise and Reviews
"I have spent most of my career studying women's sexual heath in laboratory settings and know nothing about Tantra. I found this book to be informative and intriguing. Tantric Sex for Busy Couples is a well-written basic guide for those who want to learn more and incorporate Tantra into their lives."
Beverly Whipple, PhD, author of The G-Spot
"Sex is important nourishment for a marriage. This book provides worthwhile suggestions for accomplishing real intimacy with your partner." Michele Weiner-Davis, best-selling author of The Sex Starved Marriage
"The Daffners have found a very natural way to have great sex, and they share it with us from their hearts. Having attended their classes, and now reading the book, I especially recognize and applaud the power of their "Peaceful Passion" approach. It has helped bring my own relationship to a higher level." Dr. Howard Peiper, N.D., nominated for a Pulitzer Prize, best-selling author of The A.D.D. & A.D.H.D. Diet and Natural Solutions for Sexual Enhancement
"As a lifelong advocate of how body awareness can bring us into connection with the present moment, I was delighted to encounter this book. With charming anecdotes and refreshing clarity, the Daffners offer a practical guide to that most elusive of states: true intimacy. Highly recommended!" Ann Weiser Cornell, Ph.D., author of The Power of Focusing and The Radical Acceptance of Everything
"Greater sexual freedom has not created more sexually satisfied people. In fact, sex for many people only deepens their feelings of emptiness, aloneness and sadness. This book opens the way for sex being an integral part of fulfilling our basic need for an emotionally meaningful connection." Jordan Paul, Ph.D. author of Becoming Your Own Hero and Do I Have to Give Up Me to Be Loved By You?
"Richard and Diana's book Tantric Sex for Busy Couples is a helpful tool in keeping busy couples juicy and romantically connected." Charles Muir, author of Tantra: the Art of Conscious Loving and Awakening the Goddess and Freeing the Female Orgasm
"It is unusual for an author to approach intimate sexuality in a manner that is easy and comfortable to her readers. In this wonderful book, Diana Daffner does just that. Physical love may be expressed in many different ways. The path shown in Tantric Sex for Busy Couples is accessible for modern lovers." Felice Dunas, PhD, author of Passion Play: Ancient Secrets for a Lifetime of Health and Happiness Through Sensational Sex
"We have always found that the best teachers simply teach what they actually do. If you want to learn about Tantric practice that you can use right now, today, to enrich your sexual and spiritual relationship, Richard and Diana are great teachers to learn from. The opening poem, "How would you like me to touch you?" that Diana wrote to Richard early in their relationship, is worth the price of the book." Al Link and Pala Copeland, authors of 28 Days to Ecstasy for Couples: Tantra Step by Step
"This is one of the most practical, easy to understand, and playful books I have seen on the Tantric path to intimacy. Free of the usual eastern jargon that so many others try to impress their readers with, Diana (and her sidebar husband/lover, Richard) go deep lightly. You'll actually be able to use this book from the start to make your life and most intimate relationships more joyfully fulfilling." Robert Sachs, author of The Passionate Buddha: Wisdom on Intimacy and Enduring Love
"Diana and Richard's book is a creative blend of the practices of Tai Chi and Tantra Sex. The book, Tantric Sex for Busy Couples, takes the reader through a series of woven practices with the personal perspectives and experience of Diana and her husband, Richard. Their book is reader friendly, instructional, and delightfully candid." Sally Valentine, PhD, AASECT certified
sex therapist and Tantra facilitator
"The Daffners’ simple intimacy ceremonies speak directly to the only part of the human brain that can fall in love—or stay in love. This primitive part of the brain finds touch, eye contact and attentiveness far more persuasive than discussion, or even self-centered passion. Both men and women will be amazed at their effectiveness." Marnia Robinson, author of Cupid’s Poisoned Arrow: From Habit to Harmony in Sexual Relationships
"Diana tells her story with grace, humor and wisdom. She gives us hope that our own intimate relationships can shine as brightly, and provides tools to help us get there. Her unique perspective, and Richard’s comments, will inspire and encourage couples to learn even more about Tantra." Drs. Bryan & Light Miller, authors of Ayurveda and Aromatherapy
and Ayurvedic Remedies for the Whole Family
"Tantric Sex for Busy Couples: How to Deepen Your Passion in Just Ten Minutes a Day
is a highly readable book, providing practical inspiration for deepening into heart-centered presence. Diana and Richard speak honestly, eloquently and from their personal experience in the Art of Love." Elysabeth Williamson, author of
The Pleasures and Principles of Partner Yoga
"As a therapist and personal coach to professionals and executives, I am aware of the deep longing for intimacy that seems to elude people, even when they are in good, solid relationships. Tantric Sex for Busy Couples can help couples bridge the divide that so often keeps them separate when their hearts and souls yearn to be joined. Aimee Bernstein, M.A, Open Mind Adventures
"Diana Daffner reminds us that we create what we experience. We can choose to be intimate. Even if we are not naturally romantic or sensual, we can enter into profound physical and emotional intimacy with our chosen partner. Her presentation is clear, concise and passionate. She gives specific tips to help you create the intimacy you deserve." Dorothy M. Neddermeyer, PhD, co-author of 101 Great Ways To Improve Your Life - Vol. III
