Yes indeed. Who knew there were so many ways to enjoy your body and find new levels of reaching impressively mind-blowing firework worthy orgasms.
We’ve taken some tips from well renowned sex therapists and put together a few points to help you whether solo, or with a partner or two to reach new orgasmic heights.
1. Clitoral Orgasm
This is one we all know and love. This clever little tissue muscle has over 8000 nerve endings and is the human female’s most erogenous zone and primary source of sexual pleasure.
Whether you enjoy good old-fashioned caressing and stroking, a gentle or firm buzz from a bullet or clitoral vibrator, stimulated the right way the attention you give to the clitoris can lead to intense pleasurable orgasms.
Many first learn to please the clitoris by grinding. It’s a great way to get off. Grind on a pillow, a sex toy or even your partner.
The glans clitoris gets all the glory, but because it is an extremely sensitive area, some may find direct clitoral stimulation too much. Not to worry, gentle rhythmic movement over the labia area is a good place to start, teasing also helps and then as arousal builds, start to increase the pressure and speed as this can help intensify the orgasm.
2. G-spot Orgasm
The elusive G-spot orgasm… does it exist! For some women, achieving a G-spot orgasm from penetrative sex can be a little difficult, and some suggest that it is easier to locate the G-spot through self-exploration. There are however different positions, techniques or toys that can also assist. A G-spot vibrator is a good essential to have on hand during masturbation or penetrative sex.
Information suggests that the key to women achieving a G-spot orgasm is by trying a “come-hither” motion rather than a thrusting in and out motion.
But the key to successful pleasure is really rather simple. Experiment, and find what best works for you.
Alternatively, a vibrating cock ring may also do the trick.
Combine the two techniques, add some nipple or anal stimulation, and you are bound to increase the intensity of your orgasm.
4. Anal Orgasm
Having anal sex is way more than just a titillating deviation. It can lead to exceedingly pleasurable orgasms.
Anal sex is all about exploring your limits and moving at your own pace. So take your time, and a fair amount of lube and find your pathway to anal pleasure.
If you are new to anal, then perhaps start with anal masturbation. There are plenty of entry level toys to ease you into things, to that of expert anal pursuing pleasure.
If you are curious about penetration, but nervous, then try a small beginners butt-plug. Once again, it’s all about experimenting and finding yourself a comfortable and suitable medium.
5. A-spot Orgasm
Not many have heard of this orgasm, but guaranteed it’s one you don’t want to miss out on.
The A-spot is an area located deep within the vagina positioned between the cervix and the bladder. Some research suggests that the stimulation of this spot can promote more lubrication and arousal, and increase a woman’s chance of reaching orgasm, also making other forms of penetration more pleasurable.
You’re going to need a larger than average sized penis or dildo to stimulate the area. A curved dildo or vibrator can help do the trick here.
To stimulate this area, use a well lubricated sex toy and apply pressure to the top wall of the vagina and steadily move up to find the spot. The A-spot can also be stimulated anally by putting pressure on the front wall of the rectum.
6. Nipple Orgasm
A nipple orgasm may not be as common as other types of orgasm, but can be just as effective nonetheless. And yes, both men and women can experience a nipple orgasm. Each nipple contains hundreds of nerve endings, and when properly stimulated they send tiny shockwaves to the genital sensory cortex. Nipple orgasms sneak up on you, the sensations spread throughout the body as the pleasure builds and then bam! You will feel a climax that will come in waves. Some may prefer gentle teasing and tongue-flicking, others may prefer biting and clamping. Either way, find what gets your sensory cortex going and enjoy!
7. Coregasm
Now here is one you least expected, an exercise induced Orgasm! Known to occur when engaging in exercises that stabilise your core, by pulling your belly button towards your spine, the muscle contractions in the pelvic floor may mimic a similar stimulation to an orgasm. It feels quite different to the vaginal orgasm and not everyone will be able to achieve a coregasm during exercise. Trying some of the following exercises may result in a coregasm:
| Crunches | Side Crunches |
| Leg Lifts | Knee Lifts |
| Hip Thrusts | Squats |
| Plank Variations | Abdominal Exercises |
| Pull ups | Chin ups |
8. Mindgasm
A mindgasm occurs without any form of physical stimulation. A mindgasm is a brief but intense pleasure experienced during mental arousal, a thrilling point of intensity of emotional excitement. Usually achieved by gaining heightened synchronicity between your body and mind. Meditation, sexual thoughts, imagery, fantasy and visualization are a sure way to help you along the path to enjoy a blissful mindgasm. Don’t force it, practice makes perfect and is a great way to encourage your own sexuality to flourish.
Enjoy the process, don’t put any pressure on yourself to try to achieve the ultimate orgasm, and remember orgasms shouldn’t always be the goal. Explore and discover your own needs, likes and dislikes, whether it be solo or with a partner or two and find what feels good for you, the pleasure will follow.
