Keynote: The Secret Keys to the Ultimate Love Life
Monday, January 22
Ballroom 9:00am to 10:15am
Margot presents, in very concrete and practical terms, the spiritual dimension of sexual loving. She shows that the same qualities that are developed and needed in meditation, are those that help lovers travel from orgasm to ecstasy in their sexual loving. The goal of this presentation is to offer inspiring tools and perspectives which can transform love making into an ecstatic meditation.
Her Secret Keys reveal how to use breath to bypass a busy mind, how to open our energy centers during love making, how to create a sacred space, how to seduce each other into love consciously, how to connect through the eyes of the soul, and how to transform orgasmic energy into bliss. As a support tool, Margot includes excerpts of her documentary film of the same title.

Workshop: Does God Have Orgasms?
Margot Anand and Michael Pooley
Monday, January 22
Ballroom 10:45am to 12:00 noon
We have all heard about transforming lust into bliss. But how many of us can really do it consistently our partner? How does it really happen?
I have recently discovered deeper levels of Tantric Awakening, working with great and newly discovered eastern masters. I have recently learned to cultivate what is called "the body of Light" which appears when we are capable of dwelling in profound stillness within ourself and with our partner. It is a process of alternating between a paroxysm of sexual excitement and delight, and channeling that energy through our Inner Secret, central channels into higher states of bliss. And in that process entering into deep stillness with ourself and our partner.
The goal here is to experience our "Light Body" or our fine energy frequencies. and transform raw energy into divine bliss !
In this workshop, we will discover:
- How we can cultivate higher levels of arousal sexually and energetically
- How we can listen to our partner to elicit those levels in our loved one
- How we can move from peak arousal to deep stillness and expanded states of consciousness
- How we can dwell in stillness and receive new insights intuitive information.
