The Story
The Connection Program, or “CP17” is an upgraded and refined edition of the signature program OneTaste began in 2010. Over the next eight years, we ran it sixteen times between San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, and London. Led by a team of experts and supported by the global community, over 1500 people have graduated, and the results speak for themselves. This is the premier erotic education–refined and upgraded.
““Connection is why we’re here. We are hardwired to connect with others… and without it there is suffering.”

Your Journey into Eros
The Connection Program is a living practice in the feminine path of spirituality known as Eros.
We begin with the foundations: Orgasmic Meditation — one of the fastest, most powerful gateways to the body’s innate healing and mystical states and a curriculum based in the Eros Sutras, a distillation of more than 2 decades of research into the frontiers of human consciousness into a five volume work.
From there, you’ll reshape your lifestyle and daily practices to cultivate flourishing. You’ll lean into your edges rather than retreat, expanding your capacity to create and live the life you deeply want.
Orgasmic Meditation
Orgasmic Meditation (OM) is a structured attention practice in which one person gently strokes the clitoris of another for 15 minutes while both place their awareness on the point of contact. Research from MIT, Jefferson University, and the University of Pittsburgh has studied OM’s effects. A peer-reviewed study found that 62% of practitioners reported mystical experiences, comparable in intensity to high-dose psilocybin. In 2025, a Phase 1 clinical trial testing OM for PTSD showed a 47% average reduction in symptoms, with participants rating its safety 4.9 out of 5. Read more here.
"They called the Coaching Program the Change Your Life Program and it lived up to its name for me. For the first time, I felt like I consciously met myself at my core, and I came away with a foundation for working with my patterns while staying connected to others. Most importantly, it showed me how I could be of real benefit to every person in front of me."

To learn through the nature of the waves, to love the water itself, as both the crest and the crash. This is artistic mastery—the way the ocean works equally with the creation and the destruction of form. All returns to the depths.
