What Happens
At The Course
This half-day course includes introductory instruction in the philosophy and practice of OM, how it relates to mystical states, a live demonstration of the technique, and the opportunity to ask questions of expert facilitators with nearly 30 years of practice.You do NOT need to come to class with a partner; participants do not do the practice during the course. If you do attend with a partner, know that the basic requirements to do the practice are anatomical: one partner must have a clitoris and one partner must have a finger to stroke it. That’s it.
Participants do not do the practice in the course.
Admission to the course requires an Eros Platform Subscription ($25/month or $249/year) and includes group followup sessions.

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.
“After the demonstration, we were invited to share a word. How do you describe the ineffable? All I could articulate was ‘safe’. It’s so challenging for me to describe what I felt any other way– I am a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, a woman who has always walked in the world with a level of defendedness, less and less over all the years of embodied spiritual practice, bodywork, therapy etc, decades of recovery and growth through 12 step, training and teaching yoga and meditation…..and still. But 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.”

*In a July 2021 study with 780 OM practitioners, 62% report having a mystical experience, as shown by the MEQ 30, on par with the 2nd highest dose of psilocybin.
A follow-up OM/MEQ 30 study found that 23% of participants attained a "mystical experience" in their most recent session with strong correlations between partners.

Who is this
Program for?
The Artist in Training
The person who knows they’ve got an artist inside but isn’t sure how to access them. You know more is possible not just in “relationships” but in relationship with yourself and all things.
The Seeker of the Mystical
The person who feels trapped in the everyday experience of life. Somebody hungry for the mystical. Maybe you’ve felt that something you know is possible before but aren’t sure how to tap back into it. You feel locked out, relying on external conditions for access.
The Voyager
People with an active mystical experience of life who want to explore another vehicle. You have existing mystical access and are ready to explore something potent, aligned, and distinctly (possibly uniquely) feminine.
The Creators
Creatives who want to take their skill and expression to the next level: for contribution and for more enjoyment of their lives. You have skill and experience with a certain medium and want to grow as an artist into different abstractions of expression.
The Seeker of Passion
People who want to find purpose that aligns with their passion. Everything is going great for you except what you do and who you are are out of alignment. You lead dual lives. Find the through line.
The Spiritual Practitioner
The spiritual practitioner who wants to learn to unite the primordial forces of the soul with the spiritual ideals of the above. You’ve gone down the spiritual rabbit hole but you want something more embodied that you can sink your teeth into.
