Everything coming directly from Mother Earth has the ability to heal our bodies and expand our consciousness.
I LOVE diving into holistic ways of healing! I actually wanted to be a holistic doctor at some point. This is because I love the Earth. I see myself as a Green Witch. I believe in the power of herbs, nature, sunshine, water, and the soil.
Today I’m diving into the Ancient Practice of Yoni Steaming. This is something that has been utilized for thousands of years to help women connect with their source of power — the YONI or VAGINA. I have set the intention to do these more regularly and hope other women join me on this beautiful journey of self-love and empowerment!
PHYSICAL BENEFITS
🌷 Yoni Steaming soothes and revitalizes the reproductive system.
🌷 It reduces pain, bloating, and other symptoms associated with menstruation.
🌷 Regulates the menstrual cycle.

🌷 Speeds up healing after giving birth.
🌷 Relieves yeast infections and maintains a healthy odor.
🌷 Detoxifies the womb and removes toxins from the body.
SOUL BENEFITS
🌷 Heals sexual trauma.
During intercourse, energy is exchanged. The woman absorbs all that the man carries and men also absorb the energy that the woman is working with. Now, this is something that takes place at a very unconscious level. People are having sex without really knowing that something incredible is happening at an energetic level. Be wise with who you choose to have sexual relations with. Protect your energy. Take care of yourself.
HOW DOES YONI STEAMING CLEAR SEXUAL TRAUMA?
Everything is energy. So, when a woman takes time to focus on her own energy, an understanding of her trauma or karmic ties comes to the surface. We get clear of what it is that is causing us pain or blocking us from experiencing love, ecstasy, true happiness. By sitting with ourselves, nurturing our bodies, our sacred flower, we activate the Goddess Code. We begin to see ourselves as Divine. We accept ourselves for who we are because we finally see and feel that who we are is beautiful. Who we are is enough. Sexual trauma healing happens at a very deep level. We dive deep into the root of our pain, and this pain goes back many lifetimes, remember…
we are healing the karma of our ancestors.
Yoni Steaming is sort of a meditation practice solely focused on self-love. It gives us the opportunity to reconnect with our divine feminine essence.
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS ⬇️
🌷 Yoni steaming applies heat and moisture in a gentle way to the exterior tissues of the vagina. This moisture carries medicinal plant oils that increase circulation to the vulva, which causes it to swell and expose the inner labial mucus membranes. This makes it easier for the medicinal oils to work their way up the reproductive system, while gently cleansing and releasing the build-up on the lining of the uterus. This build-up is often the cause of fertility issues, as well as pain, and menstruation problems.
➖ Not safe for pregnant women and must only be done when you are not menstruating.
EXAMPLE: I menstruate with the full moon, so I took advantage of the new moon energy to connect with myself via this way. It is a beautiful, sacred, empowering practice. I’ve only done it a few times, but I 100% recommend it.
You can do this a few weeks leading up to your menstrual cycle, this way your uterus can be prepared and shed during the bleeding time that which no longer serves you. You can also do this a week after to make sure everything feels good inside. I like to do it before though. It serves as a sort of preparation. Dong this 1-2 times a month is enough.
