Average customer review:
This holistic guide to female sexuality integrates the latest in Western medical research with the wisdom of the East to explain how any woman can enhance her pleasure in lovemaking & reach her full sexual potential. The book begins with a self-assessment to help you discover your own unique sexual potential.
Product Description
According to recent studies only one woman in three regularly experiences orgasm, and only 16 percent of all women are multi-orgasmic. But those numbers should substantially increase with the publication of this healing journey into female desire and sexual satisfaction.
The Multi-Orgasmic Woman brings together the wisdom and secrets of an Eastern spiritual master, Mantak Chia, the leading teacher of Taoist sexuality, and the health knowledge of a Western physician, Rachel Carlton Abrams, M.D. The book draws on a profound insight from Taoist sexuality: we can live truly healthy, dynamic lives only if we connect to the source of our overall desire and vitality--that is, our sexual energy, which is a wellspring of incredible power and joy.
In these pages readers will learn how to explore their passion and their pleasure through a sexual personality quiz that will uncover exciting mysteries. Then they'll be given a series of tailor-made techniques and exercises that will increase "chi" or "life energy," and women will learn how to reach intense, prolonged, whole-body orgasms. This is a book to help all women reach their true sexual potential--and discover a more blissful and fulfilling way of living in their bodies.

From Publishers Weekly
For women who seek "heightened spiritual consciousness" with their extended and multiple orgasms, the coauthors of The Multi-Orgasmic Man and The Multi-OrgasmicCouple prescribe a series of meditations and exercises from the Chinese Taoist tradition. The authors' inclusive language speaks to all women, regardless of age, sexual orientation, relationship status, orgasm tendencies or level of experience with meditation. The good, basic information (including a thoughtful bibliography and appendixes) on general sexual health and wellness emphasizes holistic approaches to maintenance and treatment, and the primer on the fundamentals of chi (energy) provides a solid overview of the theoretical basis for the methods developed to cultivate and use this energy. Achieving multiple orgasms, however, requires a considerable commitment to mastering the challenging practice of stimulating and directing sexual energy throughout the body (although the simpler meditations and breathing exercises will help even beginners to relax). There are also many more specific techniques for "self-cultivation" (the Taoist term for masturbation) and detailed instructions for developing stronger pelvic muscles than can be found in many sex manuals. However, those new to meditation may find the complicated visualization sequences difficult to follow (e.g., advanced techniques involving stone eggs may seem too bizarre for some readers). (June)

Review
In The Multi-Orgasmic Woman Rachel Abrams is like sitting down with an MD girlfriend who focuses on women’s sexual health AND knows everything about the ancient art of Taoist sexual practice. More women will have expanded access to their sexual pleasure and the possibility of multi-orgasmic sex thanks to her uncomplicated directions and illustrations. A step-by-step guide for women to explore being multipli-orgasmic. -- Lou Paget, Best-selling author of How to Be a Great Lover and The Big O.

It's True
I am writing a book about women and sex myself. In the process of researching for the book I constantly read books on gender, sex, and sexuality. This is the first `how to have better sex' book that has captured my imagination. It is well written, well organised, underpinned by the best of Western and Chinese sexual knowldeges and best of all, if you follow the suggested practices it does make a difference. I thoroughly recommend it.
average self help book
This book is a run of the mill self help book that is dotted with surveys and tests and mildly interesting well presented details.
Jumping
Lots of good info, but not into the chi excercises they want you to do to accomplish the full multi orgasmic female that I can be.
