OM Fundamentally Alters the Baseline Function of the Brain

A groundbreaking study in neuroimaging reveals that long-term practitioners of Orgasmic Meditation (OM) show unique brain activity patterns.

Compared to non-meditators, OM practitioners display lower brain metabolism at rest. This reflects a state of deep relaxation and calm, similar to experienced meditators.

The study demonstrates that OM fundamentally alters the baseline function of the brain over time.

• Researchers studied 40 experienced OM practitioners (20 men, 20 women) and compared them to 19 non-meditators.

• Brain activity was measured using FDG-PET scans, a technique that tracks glucose metabolism
(a marker of brain activity) while participants were at rest—not meditating or performing tasks.

OM appears to induce a state of deep relaxation and emotional awareness by altering the brain’s baseline activity, creating a unique calm state.

These findings hint at a powerful connection between sexuality and spirituality and suggest OM may offer benefits like reduced stress, improved emotional well-being, and an enhanced mind-body connection.
