Neotantra

Okay, so neotantra is about touching and getting close to people in a special way. It's like a special kind of hug that feels really good. People who do neotantra practice it with respect and kindness.

It's like a game of pretend, where people play pretend to be different animals, like lions or tigers. Only instead of playing with stuffed animals, they play with each other. They touch in special ways that feel good, but there are rules to keep everyone safe and happy.

For example, one rule might be that people always ask before touching someone, and they can always say no if they don't feel comfortable. It's all about respecting people's boundaries and feelings.

Some people say that doing neotantra helps them feel more connected to other people and to themselves. But it's really important to only do it with people who respect you, and who you feel safe and comfortable around.
