    A sex coach from New York claims that she can show women how to think their way to climax with a technique that turns women on in a "molecular sense." What does that mean exactly? Well, women are basically advised to lay down, move their hips from side to side, and think really hard (we couldn't resist) about their pelvic energy.

    According to an article on Salon, sex coach Barbara Carrellas claims she can show women how to achieve a "breath and energy" orgasm by "thinking off." Salon's Tracy Clark-Flory became Carrellas' client and used her breath, hip movement and Kegel exercises to have an "ecstatic experience."

    While Clark-Flory wrote that she experienced a remarkable sensation "unlike anything [she'd] ever felt," she later typed "hyperventilation symptoms" into Google, unsure of what she experienced exactly. Carrellas is teaching her Ecstatic Breathwork - How to Have a Breath and Energy Orgasm class in the UK this November.
