ORGASMIC MEDITATION: WHAT IT IS & WHY YOU NEED TO TRY IT

Orgasmic meditation involves a partner stroking the left quadrant part of the clitoris, which is the most sensitive part. The stroking is done gently for 15 minutes using a lubricated finger. Well, you might be asking yourself how exactly this works as a form of masturbation. You need to understand that the practice isn't for women alone to reach the end goal. During the 15 minutes, the focus is removing any other distractions and prioritizing the process of pleasure.

Orgasmic meditation is done with the mindful aspect. All you need is to focus purely on the orgasm despite other thoughts that may come in. It involves focusing on the body rather than within the mind. It comes about when you are present in the moment. You do not need to focus strongly on how long it will take to get to the climax. 

Instructions for Orgasmic Meditation

• Make sure your environment is relaxing and comfortable by setting up a "nest." You can use a yoga mat, firm cushion, or blanket since they are essential for stroking.
• Have a hand towel within reach.
• Get yourself into a comfortable position.
• You need to set a 13-minute timer and additional 2 minutes, making it to a total of 15 minutes.
• The person doing the stroking should describe color, texture, and location.
• The person stroking needs to apply lube to their finger and inquire if the person being stroked is ready. If ready, then begin stroking the upper left-hand quadrant.
• The stroker should apply down strokes when the timer dings at 13 minutes
• Pressure should only be applied to the partner's genital when the second timer dings until both partners feel back in their bodies.
• Use a towel to wipe the lube from the genitals to the hand, and finally, you can put the nest away.
