Yoni Steaming

We have recently brought yoni steaming herbs into the shop! While there are many physical benefits of yoni steaming (listed here), I personally LOVE the practice of steaming because it is a powerful way to bring presence to the pelvic bowl & energetically cleanse the womb space (i.e. release the energy of past lovers).

You may like to follow the Week 2 Womb-Clearing Meditation while yoni steaming. The instructions to steam are provided below. Our specially formulated organic yoni steaming herbs can be found here.


How to Yoni Steam

1) Bring 2 cups of water to boil (or more, as some will evaporate)

2) Add 3 tbsp of herbs to the bowl you intend to sit overtop of (the bowl should be wide-lipped and thus comfortable enough to kneel/squat over while being able to rest your weight fully on it for 15+ minutes)

3) Pour ~2 cups of the boiling water over the herbs, then COVER the bowl (with a lid, plate, etc.) so that the water can cool slightly, but that the volatile oils from the herbs won’t evaporate into the steam just yet.

4) Set an intention for your steam.

Examples: to release the energy of past lovers, to become a clear creative vessel, to access your womb’s wisdom; etc.

5) After waiting a few minutes so that the water isn’t SO hot that the steam burns you, you can kneel over the bowl (we recommend wearing a skirt, dress, or wrapping your waist in a towel so that it can drape over & around your legs)

6) Adjust yourself over the bowl so that you can feel the steam rising & warming your yoni.

7) Steam for ~20 minutes. I suggest doing a guided womb healing meditation (like the one in Week 2), or simply bring your awareness to your breath & womb while visualizing your intention.

8) Lay down or else be sure to move slowly after your steam to allow yourself some time to integrate the physical, emotional, mental, & energetic shifts that may have occurred.


Week 4 Challenge
