Herbs Mix for Yoni Steam // 13 USD/10 EUR

So, what is a YONI?

//Yoni//
•••
The Sacred Portal. Vagina. Gateway to other worlds. Keeper of ecstatic pleasure and multi-orgasmic bliss. Direct connection to the divine, the Yoni is your greatest source of power.

Too often our most sacred center is treated with disrespect, shamed, referred to with derogatory words, viewed as dirty or an object of obsession and even violated through unwanted touch and lack of consent. The symptoms that manifest as a result are pain, inflammation, dryness, difficulty receiving pleasure, disconnection, difficulty reaching orgasm and often, total lack of desire.

How does Yoni + Womb Steaming Work?

The hot water brings out the medicinal properties of the herbs allowing them to be released up with steam, which opens and softens the tissues of the Yoni + Womb. The vaginal tissues are porous and easily absorb this potent steam, so the medicine can begin to work. The warmth increases blood flow and circulation in the uterus, detoxifying the womb and releasing old blood, energies and stuck emotion.

How do I practice Yoni Steaming at home?

I recommend squatting over your herbs as it opens the hips and pelvis and allows the medicine of the steam to reach further within you. If you can’t squat comfortably for 20 minutes, sitting on the edge of a chair or stool will do just fine!

There are TWO types of squats you can steam in:  

Wide-legged Squat  Or Frog Pose

Both squat positions open your pelvis and allow the steam to further reach tenderly into your womb. I personally favor Frog pose as I can lean forward onto a pillow and get a deep stretch in my back. Whichever Squat feels comfortable is fine. Always remember to treat yourself kindly and do not overwork your body. Check in and see how you are feeling before each session, taking a moment to stretch any tight muscles if needed. Test the heat of your herbs and make sure the steam is not too hot. If it is too hot, allow the herbs to cool for a few minutes before beginning. Take care not to burn your delicate vaginal tissues, at proper temperature the steam should feel comfortably warm on your skin.

          In order to receive the most benefit from your steam session, you want to keep as much steam from escaping as possible. You can do this a few ways:  

 Use a yoni steam cloak, wrap a large towel or blanket around your waist, or use a beautiful maxi skirt ( my favorite!)                           

The herbs lose their potency after twenty minutes, at this time if you feel ready you can remove the bowl from below you and wrap yourself in a warm, cozy blanket. If it is winter time, take extra care to keep yourself warm after your steam.

Take a moment to return the herbal water to the earth + give thanks to her for providing this beautiful medicine.

Pay attention to your Womb + Yoni over the next few days, keeping a journal close by to record any wisdom or transmissions that flow through you.

Often a steaming session will leave you feeling relaxed and sleepy, indulge in yourself and take a nap or head to bed early for a restful night's sleep.

The steam sessions should be short and no longer than 10 minutes per session.

Yes, but no longer than 10 minutes per steam session or the IUD can become dislodged due to prolonged exposure to warm steam. The warm steam causes the uterine tissues to relax and could shift the IUD or cause it to fall out. Please use caution and good judgment when steaming with an IUD.
