Mindgasm Basics

What is Mindgasm and how does it work?

Mindgasm is a fresh approach to meditation and physical well-being that combines mindfulness with specialized kegel exercises. Through guided muscle contractions and deep relaxation, you’ll discover a unique path to continuous pleasure and enhanced physical awareness. Following the narration and musical cues, you’ll learn to individually control your pelvic floor muscles, creating deeper and more sustained sensations than traditional practices offer.

Is Mindgasm just another masturbation technique?

Mindgasm is not a “quick fix” for stronger conventional orgasms. It’s a practice requiring dedication that unlocks an entirely new realm of pleasure – one that ultimately surpasses traditional climax. With consistent practice, you’ll develop the ability to access and maintain these profound states of pleasure indefinitely through focused awareness and subtle muscle engagement.

How long does it take to have your first Mindgasm?

Understanding Mindgasm Timelines – Unlike traditional orgasms that have a clear peak and end, Mindgasms exist on a spectrum of pleasure. The time to achieve significant sensations varies for everyone:

  • Some connect instantly
  • Others feel results within days or weeks
  • Most practitioners need 1-6 months of practice to experience consistent pleasure
  • Success depends greatly on mindset and patience

Remember: Mindgasm is a journey, not a race. Focus on enjoying each new sensation rather than rushing toward a specific goal. Don’t get discouraged if it takes longer – some of our most successful practitioners needed 6+ months before their first breakthrough. The key is consistency, not speed. 

Find inspiration in our User Stories

Can women practice Mindgasm effectively?

Absolutely! Mindgasm works equally well for women and men. The practice focuses on the same pelvic floor muscles that both genders share, just in slightly different anatomical configurations. Women often find Mindgasm particularly effective because:

  • The same neural pathways and muscle groups are involved regardless of gender
  • Women’s anatomical structure often allows for more varied sensations
  • The clitoral and G-spot areas respond excellently to the subtle muscle contractions taught in Mindgasm
  • Many women report achieving multiple orgasms more easily through Mindgasm techniques

The app includes specific guidance for female anatomy, and our community has many women sharing their successful experiences.

Is Mindgasm suitable for beginners with no meditation experience?

Yes, Mindgasm is designed specifically with beginners in mind! You don’t need any prior meditation experience to start your journey. The practice is built to gradually introduce you to both mindfulness and muscle awareness:

  • Step-by-step audio guidance walks you through every technique
  • Simple breathing exercises help develop focus naturally
  • Muscle identification starts with basic, easy-to-find contractions
  • The app’s progression system builds skills gradually over time
  • A supportive community helps answer beginner questions

Many users discover meditation through Mindgasm and find it more engaging than traditional meditation practices because of the immediate physical feedback.

How is Mindgasm different from tantric practices?

While both Mindgasm and tantra explore pleasure and mindfulness, they have distinct approaches:
Mindgasm focuses on:

  • Specific pelvic floor muscle training with precise techniques
  • Audio-guided sessions with specially composed music
  • Individual practice that can be done anywhere, anytime
  • Modern, scientific approach to pleasure cultivation
  • Immediate, measurable physical sensations and progress

Tantra typically involves:

  • Broader spiritual and philosophical elements
  • Partner-based practices and energy exchange
  • Ancient traditions and ritualistic approaches
  • Emphasis on spiritual connection and enlightenment

Mindgasm can complement tantric practices, but offers a more structured, accessible entry point for exploring non-traditional pleasure.

What's the difference between Mindgasm and prostate massage?

While both involve the prostate area, they’re fundamentally different approaches:

Prostate Massage:

  • External stimulation using fingers, toys, or tools
  • Direct physical contact with the prostate gland
  • Often requires preparation, cleanup, and privacy
  • Focuses on immediate stimulation and release

Mindgasm:

  • Internal muscle contractions without external touch
  • Hands-free approach using only mind and muscle control
  • Can be practiced anywhere, fully clothed
  • Develops long-term muscle control and awareness
  • Creates sustained pleasure rather than quick peaks
  • Teaches skills that enhance all types of sexual experience

Mindgasm develops your natural ability to create pleasure through internal awareness, making it a more versatile and practical skill.

Safety & Health

Is Mindgasm safe for everyone to practice?

HEALTH & SAFETY NOTICE

DISCLAIMER: Mindgasm is for entertainment and information only – not medical advice.

General Safety:

  • Mindgasm combines simple muscle exercises with meditation
  • Safe for healthy individuals
  • Stop if you experience discomfort
  • Seek medical help if you experience pain

Important Mental Health Considerations.

Those with anxiety, OCD, or other psychological conditions should note:

  • Initial breakthroughs may result in ongoing pleasure sensations, even outside of practice.
  • These automatic sensations typically fade within days and become on-demand
  • Most find this experience positive and transformative
  • Those prone to anxiety may become overly focused on these sensations that they are unable to stop
  • Being overly focused could create a negative feedback loop
  • Listen to your body and mind. If unsure, consult your healthcare provider before starting.

Can you become addicted to Mindgasm?

While the desire to want more pleasure may be there, think of your body’s pleasure potential like a natural reservoir:

  • your pleasure potential gradually fills over time.
  • Quality sessions depend on several factors, including having enough “fuel”.
  • You may have great sessions several days in a row.
  • Overuse naturally leads to less satisfying experiences. Rest periods are encouraged.
  • Unlike addictive substances, you can’t force better results.
  • Know that your body needs time to naturally replenish.

The practice is self-regulating – when you deplete your reservoir, you must wait for it to refill naturally. Allow for rest and off time.

How often should I practice Mindgasm per week?

Practicing Mindgasm is somewhat akin to working out in the gym. While your muscles need time to recover after intense sessions, regular mindfulness practice is beneficial every day.

A balanced approach might include:

  • Daily meditation (even if just 5-10 minutes)
  • Muscle training 3-5 days per week, with rest days between intense sessions
  • Focus on different muscle groups on different days to allow recovery

Brief practice sessions during work breaks, commutes, or downtime are excellent for reinforcing neural pathways and improving your mind-body connection. Even 5 minutes of focused awareness several times throughout your day can significantly enhance your progress.

For more specific details and examples, be sure to check out our “HOW TO PROGRESS” – Blog.

What should I do if Mindgasm sensations won't stop?

Experiencing ongoing sensations after a breakthrough is completely normal and actually a positive sign of progress! Here’s how to manage it:

Understanding what’s happening:

  • Your brain has developed new neural pathways for pleasure
  • Increased sensitivity is temporary as your system adjusts
  • This usually settles within a few days to a week
  • It’s your body’s way of integrating the new experiences

What to do:

  • Don’t try to force the sensations to stop – this often makes them stronger
  • Practice gentle acceptance and let the feelings flow naturally
  • Use the energy positively – many find increased creativity and motivation
  • Stay busy with work, hobbies, or social activities
  • Practice basic meditation to help regulate the sensations

When to seek help:
If you experience anxiety or distress, consider consulting a healthcare provider. Those with OCD or anxiety disorders should be particularly mindful of their mental response to ongoing sensations.

CORE TECHNIQUES

How do I find my pelvic floor muscles for Mindgasm?

BASE QUICK TIP (Identifying the Base muscle)

  1. Sit with your back against a chair
  2. Locate the muscles by imagining you’re holding back gas
  3. Squeeze these muscles for 1 second, then release
  4. Notice how it feels both when squeezed and relaxed
  5. Practice this squeeze-and-release pattern several times
  6. Once comfortable, you can practice while lying down

CENTER QUICK TIP (Identifying the Center muscle)

  1. Locate: It’s between the anus and testicles (perineum)
  2. Identify: This muscle stops urine flow and makes the penis move
  3. Practice position: Sit at edge of chair, feet wide, leaning slightly forward
  4. Action: Squeeze as if trying to make your penis move
  5. Feel the muscle ball up when contracted, flatten when relaxed
  6. Practice contracting and releasing until you can replicate without the chair

Note: While stopping urine flow can help identify the muscle, don’t use this as a regular exercise.

TOP QUICK TIP (Finding & Feeling the Base) MALE

  1. Location: Just above the center muscle (perineum), near penis base.
  2. Main sensation: Gentle inward tugging of penis
  3. How to find it:
    • Imagine a muscle at the tip of your penis and flex it (simplest way, preferred?)
    • Lightly Hold penis tip.
    • Imagine a string from tip down the shaft into the body.
    • Squeeze top muscle to create gentle inward pull from the string.
  4. Characteristics:
    • Subtle, soft sensation
    • Feels like contraction around shaft base
    • Much gentler than base/center muscles squeezes
    • May feel slight sensation along lower shaft as well

Remember: Start with gentle squeezes – this is a subtle movement compared to other muscle squeezes, no need to squeeze as hard as possible. (less is more).

TOP QUICK TIP (Finding & Feeling the Upper Pelvic Floor Muscle) FEMALE

  1. Location: Just above the center muscle (perineum), behind the clitoris and urethra.
  2. Main sensation: Gentle lifting and subtle drawing in of the clitoris.
  3. How to find it:
    • Lightly place a finger near your clitoris.
    • Imagine a thread connecting from your clitoris upward into your body.
    • Gently engage the muscle to create a slight lifting sensation or subtle tug inward.
  4. Characteristics:
    • Subtle, soft sensation
    • Feels like a gentle lifting or hollowing around the clitoris
    • Much gentler than base or center muscle contractions
    • May feel a slight sensation radiating toward the lower abdomen

What are the best positions for practicing Mindgasm?

You are free to find what position is most comfortable for you. Here are some good starting points:

  • Lay down flat, legs slightly apart, approximately shoulder width.
  • Lay down flat, knees bent with legs raised, feet flat on bed.
  • Lay Down flat, frog leg position (legs down, knees bent out right and left, feet touching together.
  • Lay on the side, lower leg straight, upper leg bent.
  • Sitting in the classic meditation pose.
  • Sitting on a chair, using it to pressure against your pelvic floor (perineum region)

How long should a Mindgasm session last?

Session lengths vary based on your goals. Muscle training typically takes 10-30 minutes, while pleasure-focused sessions usually run 30-90 minutes. Some experienced practitioners enjoy extended sessions lasting several hours, but even a 5-minute practice can be beneficial. Choose the duration that fits your schedule and goals.

Basic Practice:

  • Muscle training: 10-30 minutes (3 – 5 times per week)
  • Meditation/breathing: daily if possible
  • Pleasure sessions: 30-90 minutes (2 or more times per week)

When to Continue:

  • You’re feeling in the flow
  • Experiencing pleasurable sensations
  • After peaks, trying different exercises can restart sensations

When to Stop:

  • Muscles feel tired or sore
  • You’re forcing the experience
  • Nothing happens after 10-20 minutes
  • You’re not in the right mindset

Remember: Like any physical pleasure, some days you’ll be more responsive than others. Never force the experience – it should feel natural and enjoyable. Go as few or as many days as you wish each week, just don’t forget to allow so rest and recover days along the way.

Why can't I control my pelvic floor muscles separately?

This is called shadowflex and it’s completely normal! When you flex one pelvic floor muscle, others automatically flex with it. This happens because these muscles work as an interconnected network, not as isolated units.

The good news: With regular practice, you’ll gradually develop better individual muscle control. Even experienced practitioners have some shadowflex – it’s part of how your body naturally works, and that’s perfectly fine.

Quick Muscle Identification:

Base Muscle (Anal Sphincter):

  • Focus on your anus as if holding back gas
  • Squeeze for one second, then release
  • You’ll feel tightening of the anus and slight upward pull

Center Muscle (PC Muscle/Perineum):

  • Located between anus and genitals
  • This muscle stops urine flow
  • When contracted, feels like a ball pressing down
  • When relaxed, the tightness releases and feels flat

Practice Tips:

  • Start with gentle contractions – don’t force maximum strength
  • Practice different mental cues for each muscle (hold gas vs. stop urine)
  • Focus on the release as much as the contraction
  • Be patient – muscle separation improves gradually over weeks of practice

Is it normal to leak or feel like peeing during Mindgasm?

Understanding Leakage During Practice

Common Experiences:

  • Feeling the urge to urinate, this is common
  • Some experience clear, sticky fluid release (pre-cum)
  • Others may have no fluid release at all

Important Points:

  • Both leaking and not leaking are normal responses
  • This is simply your body’s natural reaction to stimulation
  • Neither indicates success or failure in practice

Practical Tip: If concerned about messiness, wearing a condom during practice can help.

Remember: These responses vary from person to person.

Do I need to be aroused or erect to practice Mindgasm?

Managing Arousal During Practice

Key Points:

  • Any state of arousal is normal – hard, soft, or in-between
  • Physical arousal isn’t necessary for successful practice. Find more infos in this blog article: PLEASURE WITHOUT AROUSAL  
  • You can have Mindgasms completely flacid
  • The focus should remain on pelvic floor muscles, not the penis

Tips for Managing Distractions:

  • Remember practice doesn’t need to be sexual
  • If erections are distracting, adjust clothing or position
  • Keep attention on muscle sensations, not arousal

Remember: Success comes from focusing on muscle control and subtle sensations, not physical arousal.

Do I need toys or accessories to practice Mindgasm?"

The beauty of Mindgasm is that you already have all you need: A mind, and muscles.
You can get started right away, no toys, no preparation, no post-cleanup. Mindgasm exercises can be done instantly, anywhere, anytime.

That said, toys can be helpful as “training wheels”. They can help to amplify sensations, and better understand how muscle contractions affect pleasure.
Read this blog for more info

Remember: While toys can enhance practice, they’re not necessary for success – your body has everything needed naturally.

Should I avoid porn while learning Mindgasm?

With Mindgasm, you turn inwards and become sensitized for subtle internal sensations.
External input like porn will draw your attention away from these sensations.

Why this matters: Mindgasm teaches you to find pleasure in subtlety. Porn provides intense visual stimulation that can make it harder to notice the gentle sensations you’re developing

It might help you to “light them up” quickly, but you should always be able to maintain a good focus on the “inside”.

Especially when you begin your training, abstaining from porn (and classic masturbation) will lead to the quickest and easiest progress.

Consider trying the 30 Day Mindgasm Challenge – this program is specifically designed to help you build internal awareness while avoiding external stimulation, creating the perfect environment for developing your Mindgasm skills.

What are the best tips for successful Mindgasm practice?

  • Set the stage, make it a ritual, use triggers that will get you into the right mindset. Find inspiration in this Blog article: Setting the stage
  • Allow yourself to be vocal and moan
  • Don’t hold anything back, wear a condom if you are worried you will pee, etc.
  • Abstain for several days (from ejaculations as well as Mindgasm sessions)
  • Have good headphones/speakers with good low end bass
  • Don’t have expectations, don’t try to force an orgasm, it won’t happen.
  • Males: transition from being active to being more receptive, perhaps embracing a more relaxed or submissive approach
  • Everyone moves at their own pace/don’t compare your journey with others.

What's the most important mindset for Mindgasm success?

Patience and self-compassion are key. Mindgasm is about self-discovery and pleasure cultivation, not performance. Approach it with curiosity rather than expectations. Celebrate small sensations and progress – they’re building blocks for bigger experiences. Remember: there’s no ‘failure’ in Mindgasm, only learning.
