Introduction to OM

"I've been to a lot of free courses and intros and this felt really safe and grounded. I really appreciated the set up of the container and the agreements. The facilitators felt very clear and held beautiful space."

Melissa, 2025 Participant

About the Course

What if there was a way to use the most powerful human drive—the sex impulse—for more than pleasure or procreation? What if a method had been created to harness that incredible power and direct it towards growth and unconditional freedom? What if one day could change the way you see woman's power forever?

Find out about what thousands of people have experienced and what leading neuroscientists are saying about this groundbreaking practice.

This three-hour introductory workshop (with a break included) offers an overview of Orgasmic Meditation, guided by two experienced facilitators. Participants will explore the core philosophy, learn the basic technique, and review findings from nine peer-reviewed scientific studies on the practice. Completion of this course provides eligibility for the four-week Create Your OM Practice series on the Eros Platform.

About Orgasmic Meditation

In Orgasmic Meditation (OM), we learn to harness the sexual impulse, combining arousal and meditation for long term, sustained changes. OM isn't about climax, it's about taking this underlying energy and using it to flourish.

OM is a structured, attention-training practice conducted between two people who are following a predefined set of steps. The practice involves one person stroking the clitoris of the other person for 15 minutes while both partners place their attention on the point of contact and notice what they feel.

OM is the premier practice for accessing mystical states which have been shown to promote greater internal feelings of oneness and flow. OM has been shown to produce access to a mystical state on par with moderate doses of psilocybin.** Studies also show it may lead to greater resilience from stress. 

“There, in that room, the layers of defendedness I’ve carried since childhood melted away and the next words that came were ‘divine,’ ‘play’, and’ freedom’. The play of the divine.”

Rev. Laura Y., 2022 Participant

What are Scientists Saying?

9 peer-reviewed, IRB-approved studies have been performed to date, indicating that OM leads to improvements in the areas of trauma, depression, general health, and the advancement of human flourishing.

“Future studies will focus on the impact of OM on reducing signs of aging including mental agility, alertness and focus.”

— Andrew Newberg, MD - Neuroscientist and Director of Research at the Marcus Institute of Integrative Health at Jefferson University, New York Times Best-Selling Author

“Early studies show that in only 15 minutes, OM can provide improved connection and closeness.”

— Nicole Prause, PhD, UCLA Neuroscientist Researching Human Sexual Behavior, Founder of Liberos

“OM may allow practitioners to access similar brain and meditation states attained by advanced Tibetan Buddhists.”

— Greg Siegle, PhD, Professor of Psychiatry and Psychology and Associate Professor of Clinical and Translational Science, University of Pittsburg School of Medicine
