How wild is your sex life? Take this survey to find out!
Orgasmic meditation (OM) is a mindfulness practice originating in Buddhist tradition, in which a man strokes the upper left quadrant of a woman’s clitoris for 13 minutes while she’s lying down in a “nest” of pillows.
Devotees swear it’s improved everything from their intuition to their fine motor skills—and gush about how close and connected they feel to their partners. So when I got the chance to test it out at OneTaste orgasmic meditation studio in San Francisco, well, I had to see if it was worth the hype.

You Know What, Blue Wine Can Go Straight To Hell
A Spanish company—we won’t say winemaker, because that would be too generous—is producing an electric blue wine called Gïk, according to a new report from BBC Travel.
Made with a mixture of white and red grapes “whose color and flavor we improve through food tech,” Gïk’s producers say their wine is “sweeter and easier to drink” than traditional vino.
Nope. There’s so much wrong with this that it’s hard to know where to begin.
“F—king hilarious,” says Keith Wallace, founder of the Wine School of Philadelphia. “This is basically a wine for 15-year-olds who are used to drinking soda.”

Nearly Half Of All Heart Attacks Occur Without You Even Knowing It
A heart attack might not hurt as much as you think—in fact, you might not even know you had one, according to research from the Wake Forest School of Medicine.
In the study, researchers added up the number of clinically-diagnosed heart attacks and “silent” heart attacks—events that were undiagnosed at the time but were confirmed by electrocardiogram (EKG) afterwards—that occurred in more than 9,000 people during a 9-year follow up.
They discovered that 45 percent of all the heart attacks were silent.

Sex Tip: Touch Her Here
There are ways to be touched that are brilliant and other ways that are kind of blah. If there's one thing we know about the way people touch each other during sex it's that they often touch their partner the way that they, themselves, like to be touched rather than finding out how their partner likes to be touched.
Although there's a lot of variability in how people like touch, it tends to be the case that men - whose genitals are covered in skin and less sensitive than women's - tend to prefer rougher forms of touch. More thrusting, more vigor. Whereas women - whose genitals are more vulnerable and some ways and more sensitive in some spots (hello, clitoris!) - tend to prefer less aggressive touch. Women often prefer gentle tongue flicks on the clitoris or gentle but first stimulation of their genitals. Again, this isn't always the case - there are no clear gender rules in sex - but generally speaking this is often how things fall out.

5 Dangerous Mistakes You Make With Over-the-Counter Painkillers
More than 9 out of every 10 Americans use over-the-counter meds to manage pain, a new survey from the U.S. Pain Foundation found.
If you take them correctly, OTC painkillers are generally safe and effective, says Charles Vega, M.D., a clinical professor of health sciences at the University of California at Irvine.
But too many people don’t take the pills seriously—and skip the fine print on the bottle as a result, says Charles Vega, M.D., a clinical professor of health sciences at the University of California at Irvine.
