Yoni Egg Using Guide
What is a yoni egg?
A yoni egg is an egg-shaped gemstone, typically made from quartz or jade, that is used for various purposes related to pelvic floor health, sensuality, and spiritual transformation
. The term “yoni” is a Sanskrit word that refers to the female genitalia and is often associated with the concept of the sacred feminine
How are yoni eggs used?
The practice of using yoni eggs involves inserting the egg into the vagina and performing exercises to engage and strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. These exercises are commonly referred to as kegel exercises
. It is important to note that the use of yoni eggs should be approached with awareness and intent, rather than simply inserting the egg and going about daily activities
How do I choose the right size yoni egg?
The size of the yoni egg depends on individual preference and experience. Generally, a medium-sized egg is suitable for most individuals, while a small size may be more appropriate for those who have never had sex or have a smaller-sized vagina. A large size may be suitable for individuals who have given birth multiple times or desire a larger and heavier weight internally.
What are the benefits?
Using Yoni eggs have loads of benefits, including:
● Increases connection with the Yoni (so many women are “cut off” from the waist down)
● Increases sensation during sex / self pleasure
● Revitalises nerve-endings in the vagina
● Improves overall life-force energy or “chi” in the body
● Boosts sexual energy levels and awakens the libido
● Helps train the vagina for childbirth and recover the muscles post-childbirth
● Increases wetness and lubrication (yes, yes, YES!)
● Helps to prevent prolapse where by the pelvic organs collapse into the vagina due to atrophy and non-use.
● Relieves incontinence (weak bladder/accidentally peeing)
● Balances hormones by increasing blood flow to the area, which contribute to youthfulness
● Heightens orgasmic potential and able to access a variety of orgasms
● Helps to stay grounded in body and brings awareness to the Yoni, womb and entire pelvic band
● Improves overall health, happiness and wellness – physically and spiritually – as the Yoni egg focuses on the place in the body with the most Chi (life force energy).
How do I wash my egg?
Wash your Yoni Egg before and after use with a chemical-free soap or essential oil (something like lavender or tea tree). cleanser oil or cleanser spray will wash away any bacteria and sterilize the egg. Make sure the drilled hole is clear and not harbouring bacteria.
Can I use boiling hot water on my Yoni egg?
Be sure NOT to put the crystal under direct boiling hot water as this may force it to crack. Warm soapy water is fine to use in between uses. The only stone that can withstand boiling hot water is our Nephrite Jade, but we still do not recommend this.
How do I set an intention into my Yoni egg?
To maximise your use out of the crystal, set your intention into the stone each time before using it. Crystals are natural entities from the earth and can be programmed with a heart felt intention. Simply close your eyes, place your crystal in your hands or against your heart, and feel into an authentic intention that rises up for you.
How do I store my Yoni egg?
Keep in a safe place inside its pouch and store somewhere high up so little hands can’t reach it. Some people love to keep their Yoni egg on their altar to charge. Remember, this is your sacred stone, for no one else to touch.
What should I do if I accidentally drop my Yoni Egg in the toilet?
If you ever find yourself in the surprise situation of accidentally parting ways with your Yoni Egg in the restroom, don’t worry—it’s a shared experience among many! The first and most crucial step is to ensure it’s thoroughly cleaned. Gently retrieve your egg and wash it with warm water and a mild, unscented soap to ensure it’s entirely sanitised for future use. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to reset the energy of your egg; consider placing it under the moonlight overnight or smudging it with sage. This process not only cleanses your egg physically, it also rejuvenates its spiritual energy, readying it for your continued journey of exploration and connection.
I am pregnant, can I use my egg?
Unless you have used your Yoni egg previously before pregnancy, it’s best to err on the side of caution when pregnant. Many teachers encourage women not to use the egg at all during pregnancy because it could be risky introducing a new pelvic practice during pregnancy. However, it’s your body and your choice so if you do feel called to use the Yoni egg, use for a small amount of time (15-30 minutes maximum). It’s wise to connect to your vagina and create more flexibility, elasticity and tone internally, especially before preparing for vaginal childbirth. However, you also don’t want to be putting a lot of strain on your pelvic floor muscles/womb space as your energy needs to be focused on the baby, so minimise the time you use the Yoni egg to bare minimum.
I have an IUD, can I use my egg?
It’s fine to use the Yoni egg if you have an IUD as they are designed to withstand sex, tampons, self pleasure with dildos etc. A small, polished stone will likely not dislodge an IUD. To be extra careful, we recommend using a non-drilled egg so the string won’t get caught on the wire.
I am menstruating, can I wear my egg?
Your moon-time is a sacred time of shedding and releasing so we recommend not using the egg during your monthly bleed. However if you feel intuitively called to use the egg, please do so for a small amount of time and only a small or medium egg (lighter in weight). During this time of the month there is downward flow of energy, so inserting a stone weight is going against the natural flow of energy, just like doing an inversion in yoga.
Can I have sex with my egg inside me?
Some vagina-owners love to use the egg during intercourse with their partner. It can enhance sensitivity and stimulation and even “fill the gap” if your partner’s penis is on the smaller end of the spectrum. Some customers share feeling the crystal energy enhancing their sexual experience.
