OMM Training
**ORGASMIC MINDFULNESS MEDITATION (OMM)**
Orgasmic Mindfulness Meditation (OMM) is sweeping the world as more people awaken to the truth that there is more available when it comes to intimacy, connection, and aliveness in our relationships and lives.
The philosophy behind OMM offers a powerful map for how we relate, not only in intimate connection, but in communication, creativity, leadership, and everyday life. OMM teaches us how to bring attention to sensation, listen to desire, and cultivate flow rather than effort or force. Over time, this creates deeper levels of intimacy, clarity, and embodied presence across all areas of life.
**People choose OMM because they desire to:**
⚑ Feel more connected to themselves and others
⚑ Experience greater confidence and vitality
⚑ Spend more time in the Orgasmic State
⚑ Feel more comfortable in their body and self-expression
⚑ Cultivate focus and sustained attention
⚑ Have more pleasure, presence, and aliveness in their lives
The OMM practice is simple, specific, and repeatable. Each OMM is set up in the same way, creating a consistent container that allows participants to stop analysing and instead follow sensation, listen to the body, and remain present.
The practice focuses on the clitoris, often described as one of the female centers of power and pleasure, additionally is where the most concentration of nerve endings exist in either human body, male or female and thus is a super highway for both people when they place their attention there, to flow states and higher states of consciousness.
OMM Practitioner Training teaches both the practice and the philosophy of Orgasmic Mindfulness Meditation, offering tools you can apply anywhere connection is present.
Upon completion, participants gain access to a worldwide network of practitioners, allowing them to continue their OMM journey wherever they travel and to team up with anyone who has been trained, by simply asking "Would you like to OM?"
OMM training is open to both singles and couples.
⸻
**WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE TRAINING**
OMM Practitioner Training introduces Orgasmic Mindfulness Meditation as both a meditation practice and a way of relating.
**For Men**
Men often come to OMM training seeking a deeper, more grounded experience of intimacy and connection. The training supports a shift away from performance-based relating and toward presence, sensitivity, and embodied confidence.
**Men can expect to:**
• Understand the difference between effort-based arousal and the Orgasmic State
• Develop greater nervous system regulation and emotional awareness
• Cultivate sustained attention through sensation-based mindfulness
• Learn to respond to desire without urgency or pressure
• Experience a more relaxed, embodied sense of masculinity
• Deepen attunement, trust, and connection in relationship
**For Women**
Women often experience OMM training as a return to the body as a source of wisdom, clarity, and self-trust. The practice supports pleasure without performance, expectation, or self-abandonment.
**Women can expect to:**
• Learn what supports the body to enter and sustain the Orgasmic State
• Build safety and trust with sensation and desire
• Increase sensitivity and embodied awareness
• Strengthen boundaries and self-expression
• Experience pleasure as nourishing and regulating
• Reconnect with confidence, vitality, and self-leadership
**All Participants Will Learn**
• An introduction to OMM philosophy as a way of living in flow and connection
• The difference between climax and orgasm
• What supports the nervous system to access the Orgasmic State
• How to move attention from the head into the body
• Female anatomy and how to locate the clitoral focus point
• The structured steps of the OMM practice
• Foundational stroking technique
• How to ask for what you want from the voice of desire
⸻
**HOW THE TRAINING WORKS**
The OMM Practitioner Training is delivered over three structured sessions, combining philosophy, practical learning, and integration support. Training is available in person or online.
Sessions 1 and 2 are recommended to be completed in close succession, ideally on the same day, to support continuity of learning, nervous system regulation, and embodied integration.
**Session 1: Philosophy & Foundations**
**120 minutes** \| In person or online
An interactive session exploring the philosophy of Orgasmic Mindfulness Meditation and how its principles apply to your relationships, inner world, and life.
**Session 2: The OMM Practice**
**120 minutes** \| In person or online
A practical session covering the steps, structure, and technique of the OMM practice. If you attend with another person, you may choose to be guided through an OMM within a clear, consent-based container.
**Session 3: Integration & Coaching**
60 minutes \| In person or online
A follow-up coaching session, for your trainer to offer you coaching on how your practice has been going for you since your last session, and to answer any questions that have arisen through your lived experience.
⸻
**INVESTMENT & TRAINING OPTIONS**
Hourly Rate: $190 per hour
Trainings are paid in full when you book your session times with your trainer.
**Baseline OMM Practitioner Training**
✔ Session 1 – 2 hours
✔ Session 2 – 2 hours
✔ Session 3 – 1 hour
Total: 5 hours
Investment: $850
**Extended Integration Option**
✔ Session 3 – 2 hours
Total: 6 hours
Investment: $1040
Some participants choose to extend Session 3 to allow additional time for integration, refinement of attention and technique, and two guided OMMs within a supportive, consent-based container.
This option is particularly valuable for those who learn best through embodied repetition and spacious integration.
Higher levels of training are available following completion of this introductory program.

Also, please read all details, in this page and eventbrite page
Hello everyone,
You are warmly invited to this immersive afternoon of Authentic Relating. This event will involve fun and interactive exercises based around exploring the theme, "What is like to be in connection with myself and others?"
This is a space for exploring feelings, sensations, boundaries, and self-expression through immersive exercises. This is about empathic collaboration and learning the art of expressing what is present in the moment.
These beautiful practices really encourage an experience of increased depth and awareness, in a way that is sometimes not available in our everyday lives. The exercises work by creating a framework to explore communication in a non-scripted, in the moment way, which edges away from habitual patterns of relating and welcomes in more life, more breath, and more empathy.
One of the benefits of practices, is that it helps with learning to become more aware of ourselves and others and how do we inter-relate.
\*\*\*NOTE: It is recommended that participants have some experience introspection and shadow work, through participating in counselling, sharing circles, meditation, contemplation, yoga, or any modality that is designed to bring people into contact with their unconscious. This is stated as a duty of care, as the practices in authentic relating revolve around meeting ourselves deeply and coming into contact with how we are occurring the world. This process can be beautifully enlivening, and at times confronting, but the space is guided in such a way that it brings as much holding, and gentleness to the process as to make those courageous steps to share deeply, easier.
If you are new to Authentic Relating or "AR" (as people in the community refer to it) and you have any questions or curiosities, please feel free to contact me via messenger for a chat. Also, there is a plenty of YouTube results for Authentic Relating practices.
\*\*\* \*If you are experiencing financial hardship and wish to attend, please reach out and we can arrange something.
\*\*please read Eventbrite details to.
\*\*you cannot attend without pre-purchasing a ticket through the Eventbrite link.
\*\*The doors for the event close 15 minuets after the start time, meaning, no entry is allowed once we have set the container, and spoken about the agreements, so please make the appropriate arrangements to arrive on time.
About me.
I've had a long history of interest in understanding my mind through various means of enquiry from Meditation, Yoga, Transpersonal Counselling, Sound Healing and Neurofeedback. In the last 8 years I have been deeply involved in the Authentic Relating movement immersing myself in practices and deriving tremendous insight into myself a growth within my own personal relationships as a result of this work. I have been facilitating groups to journey deeply into this work for the last 4 years and I am continually on a journey of getting to know myself deeper and bring artistry and humility to facilitating.
The event will most likely finish on time, with a 10-minuet buffer at the end in case we go over, there will be spare time to hang around and chat after.
There will also be a 15-minute break in the middle of the event, with some small snacks provided.

Master the Art of the Consent
**Food for Thought Videos and Questions**
Watch curated YouTube videos on the topic at:
* [2 Minutes Will Change the Way You Think About Consent](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laMtr-rUEmY)
* [Tea Consent](youtube.com/watch?v=fGoWLWS4-kU)
* [Consent for Kids](youtube.com/watch?v=h3nhM9UlJjc)
* [Consent: It's Simple](youtube.com/watch?v=pZwvrxVavnQ)
* [FRIES Consent model](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTSDIilyA2I)
**Conversation starter questions**
1. The tea analogy is beloved — but where does it fall short? What does comparing consent to tea get right, and what complexities does it flatten or ignore?
2. "No means no" vs "yes means yes" — what's the real difference? Is the shift from one standard to the other purely semantic, or does it change how people think and behave?
3. Can consent be truly free when power imbalances exist? Think about boss/employee, teacher/student, or even significant age gaps. Is "consent" in those contexts always genuine?
4. Is silence ever consent? What role does body language, context, and prior relationship play — and where does interpretation become assumption?
5. Should consent be enthusiastic to be valid? Some argue a reluctant but unpressured "okay" is still real consent. Others say anything less than enthusiasm isn't enough. Where do you land?
6. How do we talk about consent in long-term relationships? Does familiarity change the rules — or does it just make it easier to skip conversations we should still be having?
7. What role does social conditioning play in our ability to say no? Many people — especially women — are socialised to prioritise others' comfort. Does that compromise the meaning of their "yes"?
8. Consent isn't just sexual — where else does it show up? Think about sharing someone's story, tagging them in photos, hugging a colleague, or making decisions on someone's behalf. Are we applying the same standards everywhere?
9. Can you ever fully "take back" consent you gave in the past? If someone consented to something years ago but no longer would — how should we think about accountability, forgiveness, and growth?
10. Do you want to ask the group any other questions
\*\*\*
Meaningful Discussions events take place in 11 countries and this will be our 153rd event in Melbourne! :) Please be sure to ARRIVE ON TIME since everyone will be divided into tables of 6 people at the start time. Also, please watch at least one of the Food For Thought videos before you arrive.
