The Yoni Egg practice is a powerful tool for healing, empowerment, and deep self-connection. It’s an ancient practice that has been used for centuries to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, awaken sexual energy, and promote overall wellness. However, beyond the physical benefits, the Yoni Egg is also a way to deeply connect with your body and cultivate a sacred relationship with yourself.
In this post, we’ll guide you step-by-step through the Yoni Egg ritual.
Whether you’re a complete beginner or have experience, this ritual is about creating a loving, safe, and Sacred space for yourself.
By taking your time and listening to your body, you’ll activate your energy and start your journey of deep healing and transformation.
Step 1: Set the mood
Before you begin, it’s important to create a peaceful and sacred space for your practice. This ritual is not just about inserting an egg into your body; it’s about dedicating time to honor and reconnect with yourself. Treat this practice as a date with your deepest self.
Prepare a welcoming environment by dimming the lights, lighting a candle, and perhaps playing soft, sensual music or sounds that resonate with you. Setting up your space in a way that feels intimate and nurturing is key to fostering a deep connection with your Yoni. You might want to bring in some flowers, incense, or essential oils to further enhance the atmosphere.
Consider also the power of your intention. What do you want to achieve from this practice? What energy do you want to cultivate? Take a few moments to reflect on your intention and allow it to guide your ritual. You can even create a permanent altar or dedicated space for your Yoni Egg practice, where your egg and any other ritual items can live, ready for whenever you need them.
This is your time to slow down, to breathe, and to allow yourself to experience relaxation, pleasure, and self-love.
Step 2: String the Egg (if necessary)
If your Yoni Egg is drilled, this step will involve stringing the egg. The string offers ease of retrieval and provides added comfort, especially if you’re new to the practice. You can use unwaxed dental floss, soft cotton string (like this), or any other safe, non-toxic material that allows you to gently pull the egg out once you’re done.
Stringing the egg gives you more control over the process and provides a safety net, making it easier to remove the egg when your session is over. If you have a drilled egg but prefer not to use the string, that’s okay, too! Many women enjoy the undrilled variety for its simplicity and the opportunity to truly let go of control.
Step 3: Oil the Egg
Once your Yoni Egg is prepared, the next step is to oil it. This ensures a smooth and comfortable insertion while also helping to create a sensual, loving experience. Use your favorite lubricant—coconut oil is a wonderful choice due to its natural, moisturizing properties—or any other natural oil you feel drawn to (our favourite).
Coat the egg evenly with the oil, taking your time to infuse the egg with love and care. This is a moment to connect with the egg as more than just a physical object. As you touch it, recognize that it is an extension of your body, a tool for your spiritual journey. The oil is not just a lubricant; it is an invitation to deepen your connection with your Yoni and awaken the dormant energy within.
Step 4: Insert the Egg
With the egg oiled and ready, find a comfortable space to lie down or sit. It’s important to remain relaxed during this step, as tension can create discomfort and make the process more difficult. Slowly and gently insert the egg into your Yoni, starting with the wider end at the entrance. Take your time and allow your body to naturally relax and open.
This practice is not about rushing or pushing yourself too hard—this is about self-care and listening to your body. If you feel any discomfort, don’t force the egg further in. Instead, stop, take a few deep breaths, and see if the egg naturally moves with your body’s energy. If necessary, you can use your finger to gently guide it in or even massage around the entrance to increase relaxation.
Remember that there’s no “right” way to do this, and it’s okay if you don’t feel much sensation in the beginning. For some, it may take several sessions before you feel the presence of the egg inside. Allow the process to unfold naturally.
Step 5: Breathe and Connect
Once the egg is inside, take a moment to breathe deeply and connect with the energy of the egg. Find a comfortable seated position, perhaps in meditation, with your legs crossed. Close your eyes and focus on your breath. Allow your body to soften as you inhale and exhale, creating space for your pelvic muscles to release and relax.
This is an opportunity to become deeply present with yourself. You can visualize the energy of the egg flowing through your Yoni, awakening and activating the vital energy in your body. With each breath, feel more connected to your femininity, your sensuality, and your power. You might feel subtle shifts, warmth, or tingling sensations as your energy is activated.
The Yoni Egg journey
The Yoni Egg practice is not just about physical exercise; it is a holistic practice that connects your body, mind, and spirit. It is about reclaiming your power, nurturing your inner wisdom, and honoring your sacred feminine energy. By taking the time to listen to your body and engage with this practice, you are deepening your connection with yourself.
As you continue your Yoni Egg ritual, remember to be patient. It may take time for you to feel the full benefits, and that's okay. Trust the process, and keep showing up for yourself. With consistency, this ritual will lead to greater body awareness, a stronger pelvic floor, and a deeper sense of intimacy with your own body.
This is your Sacred journey.
Embrace it fully, and let the Yoni Egg guide you back to your true self.
