Brain orgasm refers to a recently defined sensory experience that some people have in response to specific stimuli.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This sensation is described as a pleasant, even euphoric, tingling warmth and\/or feeling of relaxation that comes in waves over the head, neck and spine.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Brain orgasm is often triggered by soothing auditory or visual experiences. A calming set of stimuli that can trigger the experience are seemingly mundane things\u2014tasks or activities such as washing your hair, a gentle whisper, massaging your eyes, eating, or completing a task.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Trigger sounds include chewing, tapping, scratching, crushing, or electronic noises.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Since the phenomenon was first announced in 2010, the concept of a brain orgasm has exploded on social media, with the world seemingly divided between those who experience and seek it and those who don't.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

How to achieve a brain orgasm<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For some people, reaching a brain orgasm is easy. For others, it may take more effort to get there \u2013 and still others may try but never get the feeling.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The triggered body zone is related to how strongly a person was triggered by the stimulus, but it also varies from person to person. More intense reactions usually travel further up the body, along the spine, and are sometimes felt in the legs and\/or arms.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

General <\/strong>unlocking brain orgasm zones<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Brain orgasm triggers are very individual, but there are common points shared by many. Below are the most effective audio-visual stimuli reported by study participants:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Whisper (75%)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Personal Attention (69%)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Fresh Sounds (64%)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Slow Motion (53%)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Repetitive motions (36%)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Smiles (13%)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

While it's hard to know how (or if) you'll react when you try to experience this feeling, there are some straightforward techniques you can follow to try to induce it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

First, understand that triggers seem highly variable in relation to personal preference, although, as noted above, there are common points about the most effective methods.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In general, tingling of the head often occurs in response to soothing, repetitive sounds such as patting, rustling, crushing, or touching, and to soft, whispered voices in a variety of scenarios, especially those that are up close.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Basically, anything that evokes feelings of well-being, relaxation, nurturing, or speaks to you in some way can work to elicit this response.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Various studies have shown that most people get the so-called brain orgasm during or after meditation. This makes perfect sense given the stimuli that most often trigger it.

Potential benefits<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Brain orgasm research is still in its infancy, so there is still much to learn. However, there is overwhelming anecdotal evidence of significant mental and physical health benefits from brain orgasms, as well as some emerging evidence to support these claims. People who practice brain orgasms describe them as soothing, relaxing and meditative, as well as very pleasurable.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Studies that have been done consistently find that many participants use brain orgasms to achieve the following benefits:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
