Yoni steaming is an ancient healing practice for women that can be supportive throughout different stages of life. This ritual comes from many different cultures throughout the world and throughout history. I have come to this practice through my study through the Maya medicine tradition and Rosita Arvigo, and I approach the energetic understanding of this practice through my study of Ayurveda.
In my research, Ayurveda texts do not speak directly to the use steam on the vulva directly (there are other practices utilized for womb health) but heat, water, and steam for sweating are used extensively for healing purposes and the medicine, the gunas (qualitites) and the energetics can be understood and applied to this practice.
I love the framework of Ayurveda, because this can help someone understand whether the qualities and aims of this practice will be medicine – or not – for their body and situation. Yoni steaming/vaginal steaming can be the perfect medicine for one person – and create further imbalance in another if used when it is not indicated. You may have had this experience yourself – I have seen this in my clinical practice and that’s why I love talking about how to work with these tools understanding the qualities, an dhow, why and when to utilize natural home remedies effectively.
This is a traditional practice to bring balance and healing to the uterus, vagina and vulva, cleansing and revitalizing the whole womb space. Also called vaginal steaming (Yoni means womb, or cosmos, ‘that which is filled’) this practice may regulate menstrual difficulties, reduce uterine fibroids and endometrial tissue or discomfort, pelvic organ prolapse, constipation, anxiety, and more.
In this intensive online workshop, we will talk about how to use yoni steaming to help heal common menstrual imbalances like pain, dizziness, brown blood, heavy periods, clotting, late periods, a diagnosis of fibroids or endometriosis, PCOS, how to safely use steaming for aiding in conception and fertility, even around assisted reproductive technologies, a protocol and philosophy about postpartum steaming, and how to use yoni steaming as ritual for healing around sexual trauma, miscarriage and loss, and returning of your cycle after the birth of a child. Steaming can even benefit those experiencing anxiety, racing mind, and constipation...and more.
