A Guide to Somatic Oming* *things Women Have Taught Me ...

The practice of OM (Orgasmic Meditation) is designed to support women's empowerment around their agency, sexuality, orgasm, voice, and expression. This book covers elements of Classic OM, makes some suggestions about how best to complete and adjust the Classic Model of OM, and introduces the concept of Somatic OMing. This book reflects some of the lessons I gathered from living in an experimental women-led OM community for 2 years. This work will not include everything I know about Classic OM. Nor is it intended to be an exhaustive introduction to Somatic OMing. Both will be covered in [more] depth in separate future works. This work is intended to convey what I mean by Somatic OMing and give existing OMers some ideas on how to deepen their practice and strengthen their communities. Part 1 is on Classic OM, since supporting OMers in their existing practice is a high priority at this time. Part 2 will be of interest primarily to leaders and activists.This is not an 'entry-level' book on OM and OMing. Readers will be presumed to have a direct, personal understanding of OM and OMing to use as a point of reference. This means they may have been explicitly trained in how to OM, or read the book, "Slow Sex," by Nicole Daedone ... or read the chapter on Sex in "The 4-Hour Body," by Tim Ferriss ... and have OMed successfully at least a handful of times.What I have learned about OM is a direct result of women patiently teaching me, starting with the creation and sharing of the OM Model by Nicole Daedone. Women - a lot of women - have shaped and molded my OM practice. In group OMs, women I've never met before made me a little bit wiser ... through the direct (and indirect) transmission of their OM practice. Even the men who shared information and discoveries ... did so because they [had] OMed ... with women.Women: OM is your house. This is what I have to contribute ... so far.---This book is the first in a series called, "Foundations of an Orgasmic Nation."The Orgasmic Nation is at home in their body, responsible in their conduct, and deeply connected to orgasm in the world around them. We collaboratively explore and inquire into new practices, agreements, and distinctions ... in the areas of orgasm, connection, intimacy, and authenticity.I am Alutha Zatoichi Jamancar and I am a member of the Orgasmic Nation.* * *
