From http://www.quinion.com/words/weirdwords/ww-omp1.htm :

OMPHALOSKEPSISI pronunciation

Contemplating one's navel as an aid to meditation.

This word seems to be relatively new, at least the Merriam-Webster
Word of the Day column claims it to have been invented only in the
1920s.  It turns up in only a few dictionaries and seems to be a word
that survives more for the chance to show off one's erudition than as
a real aid to communication.
