Michal Neria told her teachers at OneTaste about her “game” – the tricks she uses to get by – usually at others’ expense.
The two most telling things Neria said to her OneTaste teachers are:
“I tend to go to victimhood rather than someone who takes responsibility for her own reality.”
“I lie when I don’t feel safe to fully stand up for my desires because I worry that people will judge me for them.”
She said she wanted to stop playing games.
She came to OneTaste because she couldn’t have an orgasm. She stayed because she wanted men.
Bloomberg, in a seriously flawed and biased story, wrote: “She started attending regular OM gatherings in New York and responded to the open flirting from the men she met.
“This thing seemed to offer friends, potential mates,” she says. “Also, I was on this whole high where there were so many men interested in me. It was weird to feel that power.”
She stayed a few months, then did everything she could to destroy OneTaste, going to Bloomberg, the BBC, then suing OneTaste.
Despite her vendetta, one thing is true: she got what she came for – orgasms and men. She met a man at OneTaste and married him.
Struggling with Mental Health
According to her lawsuit, Michal Neria had been “struggling” with “mental health issues” long before discovering OneTaste. She “suffered from clinical depression and sexual dysfunction,” and started taking antidepressants at 15. At 28, she’d had several relationships but never experienced an orgasm, leading her to psychiatrists and a women’s health clinic.
Desperate for a solution, she turned to OneTaste and Orgasmic Meditation (OM), a partnered practice where a person’s clitoris is gently and precisely stroked for 15 minutes aiming to induce a mindful state and foster a deeper mind-body connection.
At OneTaste, she attended OM classes and had her first orgasm. This practice, she admitted, helped her reconnect with her body. Yet, in her lawsuit, she claims her first OM practice was unappealing. Nonetheless, OneTaste delivered the orgasms she sought, and she described them as “electric, strong-willed, rich, juicy, expanding, high and low frequency.”
Victimhood Narrative Ad Nauseum
Despite admitting OM helped her, she now plays the victim, telling the BBC she can’t return to the practice due to “bad memories.” In her victimhood narrative, Neria seeks sympathy, ignoring the reality that OneTaste delivered exactly what she wanted.
Her story shows a pattern of lying, victimhood, and refusal to take responsibility for her adult decisions.
Her attacks on OneTaste have been about victimhood and lies.
Bloomberg first told the public about Neria in 2018, three years after she left OneTaste:
“OneTaste quickly swallowed Michal’s life. She quit her teaching job, gave her dog to her parents, and moved into a crowded OM house in Brooklyn to sell OneTaste classes.”
OM House
The house, at 28 Park, had five bedrooms and six bathrooms. It housed 10 students who lived dorm style. They moved into the OM House to practice OM.
Bloomberg: “Life at the OM house was relentlessly scheduled. Every morning at around 7 a.m., staff convened for two rounds of OM, switching partners midway.”
Four Plus Four Equals Two
Neria told the BBC in 2020: “I was expected to practice (OM) four times a day, every day, if I was there, you know – whether I had my period or not, whether I was sick or not…. So the choice of like, do you want to have somebody touch you sexually right now was not something that was available to me.”
Four times per day is exactly twice the number she told OneTaste teachers when she was working there in 2015.
Asked on a questionnaire, “How often do you OM?”, Neria answered, “Daily, average 2 times a day.”
Her roommate, Courtenay Lepovsky, remembers.
“The Brooklyn community house was run by the people who lived there. We had a schedule, and it included a morning practice, which included two, 15-minute OMs in the morning…. No one was required to keep the schedule.
“I was an elementary school teacher. I had to be on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, to start class at 8am. I didn’t go to practice ever.
“Michal was a teacher’s assistant, so she also had to be at school early in the morning. After she moved in, Michal changed the schedule because she wanted to OM. She got everybody who wanted to OM to wake up 15 minutes earlier. After Michal changed the schedule, I could, on some days, have one OM before I ran off to work.”
Forced to OM or She Couldn’t Keep Her Pants on?
The lawsuit alleges that “Michal was also required by OneTaste to participate in the ‘How to OM’ classes and OM with male participants who had paid for the classes because there were insufficient female participants for them to OM with. “
Her roommate Lapovsky said no one was ever forced to OM. She described Neria as excessively eager.
Lapvosky told FR:
“We had 10 people who lived in the house. Sometimes we had five men and five women, and then sometimes we would have mostly women
“Michal would go out of her way to ask men in the community to come by in the morning to practice, or if we had open space in the house, she’d reach out to men in the community and ask them, ‘Do you want to stay for a week and join our morning practice?”
“She’d come home from work and say ‘so and so is coming over to OM.’”
Forced to Quit Her Job?
Bloomberg reports her job was “a teacher’s assistant in a Jewish school.”
Let’s tell it like it is. Neria was a 28-year-old teacher’s assistant. She was not accountable for anything. She was not on a trajectory that she would one day be a teacher.
Bloomberg reported she was “unhappy in her job.”
No one forced or encouraged Neria to quit her job.
Her roommate at the OM house in Brooklyn, Courtenay Lapovsky, a schoolteacher, recalled this conversation:
Neria: I’m going to quit teaching school.
Lapovsky: Slow down. You know, you’ve been OM-ing for two months.
Neria: This is all I want in my life. You should quit teaching too. We’ll both quit, and we’ll figure out how to do sales and make money.”
Lapovsky: I’m not leaving my class in the middle of the year. I would never do that. Slow down. Maybe you should wait until the school year is over.
On February 7, 2015, Neria texted her friend, a OneTaste employee, Janet:
“At work. Getting my courage up to quit. Need to follow my intuition. You are good! Thank you for feeling me and checking up. I’m getting turned on and it’s fucking scary. There’s no way to ignore that voice anymore that’s telling something bigger and better. The house is supporting me as much as possible and the rest of the community. But I still need to take ownership and responsibility over my life, choices, and my actions. Om is giving me the tools to start doing that.”
Gave Her a Job?
The lawsuit alleges that OneTaste told Neria that “She would have to ‘prove herself’ before she could be put on the payroll.”
This is not unusual for any kind of work, including sales positions.
At the time, there was no job opening at OneTaste. But she quit her teaching assistant job anyway and took a lower paying job at Café Bari, a juice bar.
Neria’s friend, and a OneTaste employee, Janet, said:
“When she quit her job, we were really up front that we didn’t have a job to give her. She worked at Cafe Bari right next to the center, which she started working at after she quit her job at the school. We did whatever we could to include her, but it was all around her schedule…. Everything we did was aimed at having her feel included… going to networking events to talk to people about OM, this was a common thing for coaching program students to practice so they could get their own clients. They wanted to practice talking to people about OM. No one expected her to stay for the debrief afterwards or sell anything. When a position opened up, we offered it to her.”
Yet, Bloomberg relies on Neria’s fabrications without corroborating anything.
Bloomberg wrote:
“OneTaste quickly swallowed Michal’s life. She quit her teaching job, gave her dog to her parents, and moved into a crowded OM house in Brooklyn to sell OneTaste classes.”
But Bloomberg got the order wrong.
Bloomberg’s order: She quit her job, ditched her dog, and moved into OM house to sell classes.
Actually, she ditched her dog, moved into the OM house, then quit the job as an assistant teacher and got a job at a juice bar.
Timeline Contradicts Bloomberg’s Bias
December 2014: She got rid of her dog (who gets rid of their dog, by the way?) Then moved into the Om house.
February 2015: She quit her job as an assistant schoolteacher and got a job at a juice bar.
May 2015: Three months later, a salesperson job opening at OneTaste NY LLC came up. She took the job on May 16, and quit August 31, 2015.
Blame Game
The record shows that nine years after she left OneTaste, Michal Neria still “tends to go to victimhood” rather than “take responsibility for her reality.” She still lies.
All the tricks she used to get by – at others’ expense – she is using still today.
In other words, she is still playing the same old games.
***
Summary
For those who think it is too much to expose Michal Neria, consider she almost singlehandedly went out with her lies to destroy the company OneTaste, and steal the liberty of two innocent women – through her lies and lies by omission – all the while seeking anonymity, and getting it. She started with fooling two very gullible reporter/stenographers at Bloomberg and the BBC.
Now she has commenced a lawsuit to get money, based on a tissue of lies, tissues, I might add, which did not come clean from the box, but were used and yellow-filled with her snot and snivel. It might be comical if her lies were not so destructive to human lives.
One might be sympathetic if her mental illness was something she tried to heal, instead of trying to hurt others in unimaginably cruel and malicious ways.
We will have more to report on Michal Neria, and despite the need to expose her for the protection of her victims and for others, it is our fervent hope that she seeks help, tells the truth, and stops collaborating with equally malicious bad actors in the media and legal world, collaborating to foist her lies on the public stage.
It can only backfire on her, for her lies are so obvious that anyone above the low level of the reporters who have told her story and the too-eager lawyers who seek to profit by it, can detect her words for what they are.

Honestly, I want to know what Miss Kitty from gunsmoke would do in this macabre situation.
Squatting Cunt pose says what?
I AM KEMAR! KEMAR!!
FRANK! NO ONE GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THESE SILLY BITCHES IN ONE TASTE! PEOPLE CARE ABOUT KEITH VANGUARD RANIERE!! PEOPLE CARE ABOUT DANIELLE ROBERTS! PEOPLE CARE ABOUT NICKI CLYNE!
FUCK ONE TASTE!
I AM KEMAR! KEMAR!!
Is everyone who worked for these cults just a clinically depressed psychopath?
Squatting Cunt pose says what?
which one?
It’s a 50/50 blend of both.
Do we know what she’s been doing since she quit her job at OneTaste?
Did OneTaste condone random people being invited to these practices in the OM house?
Was Michal operating as a representative of One Taste when she allegedly solicited others to participate when they were “short” men?
My understanding is that the OM house was not operated by OneTaste, but by the residents who lived there. Michal was not working for OneTaste Inc. or the company she ultimately eas employed by: OneTaste NY LLC.
Curiously, Michal blamed OneTaste Inc., which did not employ her. That could be because she wanted vengeance and money and her employer OneTaste NY LLC, did not offer her her vicious or monetary reward.
Thank you for clarifying.
The legal standard of probable cause for an indictment needs to change.
Jokes abound that a ham sandwich can be indicted but lives and reputations are being destroyed on indictment alone.
Often one’s fate is sealed by indictment alone.
Does anyone know why she quit her job at One Taste?
She seemed committed to the company- what happened that dramatically changed her position?
She signed up to achieve orgasm and break whatever barrier prevented her from having organisms after 28 years on Earth.
By her own words she was able to achieve orgasms as a result of OM. This should be a success story.
Moreover she enjoyed and indulged in make attention she’d never experienced in her life.
She loved OM so much that she quit her job and made her desire to work for OM known.
After four short months she quit her job. Just like she quit her dog, she quit being a teaching assistant, and she quit her marriage after a few short months.
She is unable to commit to anything and flits from one thing to the next seeking from the outside all that she lacks inside.
The Bloomberg article is an embarrassment. Has Ellen Huet, the author of the salacious article who failed to fact check the false narrative been fired yet?
Or sued by OneTaste?
I will never trust Bloomberg again.
If any attorney or reporter acted with thoroughness and integrity this travesty of Justice never would have occurred.
To indulge a mentally ill, petulant adult, for self-serving financial gain or a “juicy story” albeit false, is reckless and an embarrassment to our system of Justice.
There is no crime here. Just immature adults who live life as victims and fail to contribute in any positive way to society.
Michal seems unable to stay committed or loyal to anyone- even her dog.
She flees from one idea to the next with complete disregard for those she leaves in her wake-
And not surprisingly she finds herself perpetually unhappy and dissatisfied.
Frank, I’m so appreciative of your honest, clear reporting! It’s been so convoluted through other outlets and I feel like I’m getting the real scoop. Thank you.
Thanks Frank, based on your reports, I think people are finally starting to see how tempting and easy it was to attack a health and wellness business. We need to shut the door on these “victim” strategies. Let’s all be adults here.
Sometimes it really does seem like the people who claim to be harmed in the media really aer victims just not of the subject of their claim but instead by the media itself
fuckin marcus with the “anonymous” profile picture lmao
