Tell us more about yourself and what you do
I’m Bhogananda, a tantra practitioner and facilitator, yoga teacher and life & couples coach based in Lisbon.
I have been on the spiritual path for over ten years and it is my biggest priority in life.
My work lives at the crossroads of conscious eroticism, intimacy, sacred communication and feminine embodiment, helping people reconnect with their bodies, their pleasure and each other.
Alongside my beloved Nuno, I co-founded Evolving Love, where we guide couples toward deeper intimacy and more honest communication. I’m currently in an ongoing 5-year Tantra Teacher Training, and I hold a Master’s in Applied Communication plus certifications in Life Coaching, Integral Yoga teaching and Women’s Circle facilitation.
I facilitate workshops, courses, retreats and 1:1 / couple sessions across Portugal and Europe, and collaborate with spaces like Tantra.pt, Mellow Playground and The Joy Spot. I do believe we must gather forces and unite to help others.
At the heart of it all: helping people raise their awareness, because I believe that’s what truly changes lives 🙂
What services do you offer on Sensuali?
Eroticism Coaching for individuals and couples, Feminine Mentorship, Tantric Therapy, Tantric Massage (and retreats).

Tantra, tantric massage and conscious eroticism, held with warmth and presence.
What turns you on?
An intelligent person; someone who is shameless; great self-esteem; erotic art (paintings, movies, poetry); a good French kiss 😉
What do the first 60 minutes of your day look like?
I wake up and connect with God first and foremost. Then I do my hygiene ritual, usually followed by heading to the gym. If I don’t go to the gym, I meditate and start working instead.
Why do you do what you do?
My main focus is to make this world a better place to live.
We’ll be happier if we’re more conscious of all our actions, interactions and day-to-day life, and I help that rise in consciousness happen.
I truly believe awareness is the key to changing someone’s life.
So all my work is focused on helping people be happier and more fulfilled through that extra awareness (especially in their love life) 🙂

What is an unexpected pleasure you discovered in your work?
To my surprise, I feel immense pleasure when I see people succeed. Of course I want them to succeed in life, and if I can contribute to that, even better (!) but I didn’t expect the amount of joy I’d feel when they do.
I empathise with them so deeply that their joy becomes my joy; with my rational mind, I didn’t think that was really possible.

What should more people know about your work?
That I do it with all my heart and soul. That I feel deeply fulfilled doing it, and that it’s my life mission. It doesn’t get better than this 🙂
What’s your superpower?
I would say my vitality. My energy runs with intensity, effervescence and for very long periods of time!

We love vices. What’s yours?
Buying flowers for my home 🙂
Who are your sensual inspirations?
Marilyn Monroe, Veronica Franco from Dangerous Beauty, Catherine Zeta-Jones.
Closing thoughts?
I feel that life is meant to be lived with extraordinary pleasure and joy, and immense gratitude to God that we have the chance of being on this planet, being able to help and change lives. 🙂
