Stage 1: Full Body Orgasms


Let’s begin.

The purpose of Stage 1 is to teach you how to have a full body orgasm for the first time and then get good at them – to have them consistently every time you desire, and most likely, multiple times in the same session.

It also includes some techniques which will increase your skills and ability to have full body orgasms with slightly different effects, and some tips for full body orgasmic sex with other people.

All instructions are for women and men, and anyone that doesn’t fit neatly within these labels – i.e. all sexes and genders.

It is believed commonly that only women can have full body orgasms and multiple orgasms. This is not true. Men are just as capable as women of having full body orgasms, it’s just that most men don’t know they are able to have them.

But what are full body orgasms and how do they differ from “normal” orgasms?

It’s easiest to explain in men, because male anatomy and sexual Pleasure are simpler and more homogenous than women’s.

Men experience a “normal” orgasm as follows: they have a big old dong swinging between their legs, they get aroused sexually, the dong gets hard, they pump the dong furiously, and then when a threshold of arousal is reached, the dong spasms and ejaculates thick ropes of cum. At the same time as the ejaculation, a pleasurable wave of energy shoots up their spine and explodes like a firework in their brain. Then they feel euphoric and immediately want to fall asleep. There are some slight variations on this, but essentially this is it for almost all men.

Please note that the ejaculation is not actually the orgasm; the orgasm is the pleasurable wave of energy.

Some men practise “edging”, the process of stimulating the penis almost to the threshold of orgasm then stopping, then repeating again and again – it feels nice, but it is definitely not the same as having a full body orgasm or multiple orgasms.

Full body orgasms for men are very different than “normal” orgasms:

  1. They are not initiated by stimulation of the penis – it is the prostate and / or the anus that are stimulated, either physically or mentally.
  2. They typically involve a much slower and more subtle build-up of Pleasure, in the whole of the pelvic region, especially in the prostate, bum and base of the penis, rather than in the shaft of the penis or glans.
  3. The Pleasure often manifests first as a ball of sexual energy in the pelvic region, then moves slowly up the spine, out into the chest, arms and legs as a growing wave of energy, finally exploding out of the top of the head upon climax.
  4. The climax of a “normal” orgasm for a man might take 5-10 seconds from reaching the threshold of orgasm to ejaculation, whereas the climax of a full body orgasm, once the threshold has been reached, can easily last for 5-10 minutes, longer with training.
  5. The Pleasure associated with the climax of full body orgasms is much more intense than the climax of “normal” orgasms – if a “normal” orgasm can be likened to a single small firework exploding in the brain, a full body orgasm might be a massive firework, or a whole display of massive fireworks if it’s a long orgasm. Full body orgasms are usually physically explosive too, with strong body contractions and spasms, rolling around, heavy breathing, moaning etc.
  6. Full body orgasms for men typically do not lead to ejaculation, in fact unless it’s being stimulated, the penis is normally not even erect.
    1. Because of this, once composure has been recovered, another orgasm can be had immediately, and this can be done repeatedly for hours. My normal sessions are 2-3 hours long, but I’ve had some lasting 4-5 hours.
  7. Because full body orgasms are so pleasurable, last so long, radiate through the whole body, generate strong feelings of euphoria during and after climax, and can be done multiple times, an evening of full body orgasms feels more similar to taking recreational drugs like ecstasy or MDMA, than it does to having a single “normal” orgasm. Mild visuals and out of body effects are possible and with practice, can become interactive.

For women, this difference between “normal” and full body orgasms is less clearly defined than with men because there is more variation in their anatomy.

Differences in the positioning and size of the glans and hood of the clitoris, the extent to which the clitoris extends into the vaginal walls, the shape and positioning of the rest of the clitoris, the concentration and positioning of the nerve endings inside the vagina, the shape and angulation of the vagina, and other factors, create significant variability in orgasms.

Some women are similar to men in that the orgasms they get from clitoral stimulation only, are similar to “normal” orgasms for men, and through vaginal stimulation they are able to have full body orgasms like those described above. However, other women are able to have full body orgasms from clitoral stimulation only (i.e. different to men).

Some women are able to have full body orgasms, but they need clitoral and vaginal stimulation. Some women have not been able to have full body orgasms (yet), no matter which techniques they have tried. The instructions for awakening full body orgasms in Stage 1 of The Guide are based on the hypothesis that the nerves inside the vagina are homologous to those in the prostate, and therefore the same types of stimulation and focus that men need to awaken full body orgasms, are also needed to awaken full body orgasms in most women that haven’t already experienced them. This is backed up by experiences documented by women and men in the sex positivity, neo-tantra and prostate play movements, and by the female collaborators that helped in the development of The Guide. For this reason, all the techniques in The Guide are applicable for all sexes and genders, bar a few sex-specific instructions in Stage 1.
