What people say about OM

Very much in keeping with my deepening understanding at the intersection of prayer, meditation, and flow states.

I found my voice, the ability to verbally express what I wanted during the OM translated to the courage to do so in my day to day life.

It‘s totally weird – but I do get the point and the benefits – especially in a relationship context.

This practice gave me confidence in my sex life.

I would like to practice OM more often, but I live in an “OM desert”.

I feel I have more agency over my body.

The attention training part is huge. Connection and attunement to subtle energies between two people and a moment.

I’m glad I tried it and made an effort to sustain a practice. It’s a wonderful exercise should I be able to find suitable partner(s) in my area.
