WOMB -HEART CONNECTION 🌸 This morning I woke up and instinctively put one hand over my womb and one over my heart. The womb-heart connection is one of the most immediately soothing and expansive techniques there is to shift your womb space. It's simple and you can do it anywhere. I find that adding mantra or sound is extremely powerful. Here I have dug up an old exercise where I channeled the words in Hebrew. It happens to be one of my favorite languages, that works to activate ancient codes for me, although probably not as thoroughly as its predecessor Aramaic. Semantics aside, chose what feels right for you! Even a simple, "I am light, I am love" Let me know how you do in the comments! ⚪️ Place one hand over the heart, and one over the womb. ⚪️Feel a figure of eight of gold light connecting your two hearts. ⚪️Now breathe gently into your womb. Sound the Hebrew words for I am Light, 'Ani Or' ⚪️Now breathe gently into your heart. Sound the Hebrew words for 'I am Love', Ani Ahava. ⚪️ Sound them both together: Ani Or, Ani Ahava ⚪️Breathe into the figure of eight loop and keep sounding. enjoy! Photo via @pissaro_tattoo

Happy Mother's Day 🌸 To all of you - the original priestesses out there 🌸 Remember to practice self-love and self-care in everything you do. Adorn yourselves like goddesses. Get out that Rose oil, put on some of your favorite music, and eat raw chocolate! When you light up, so does the world around you. • Photo of goddesses from Ziz Valley, Morocco via @templeofleaves

Time to fly home! (Via NY)... I've been away for three months, and my life has radically changed. I am not the same person who left. More on that soon...but for now...I feel a huge exhale is in order. 🕊❤️ Photo @mandalabotanica

Spirit has always moved through you 🕊 Think back, far back...before you were aware of language or any intellectual constructs. When you were only aware of the feeling, of the rhythm of life through your body... #themodernmedicinewoman #spirit #healing #whatsyourmedicine #wombwisdom

Deep pleasure is the potential of your own body. Your orgasm is yours to keep. It comes from you, it lives within you and no-one can ever take it away no matter what you've been through or how numb you have felt in the past. Your sexuality will be different from that of any other woman. Know yours. Relish it. It's steamy depth, it's playfulness, it's profound joy. Each woman's Orgasmic energy is unique and healing for all those that surround her. It is your real essence that has been locked up and buried until now. 🌸🌱🌿🌷 For those of you who have been asking, there are two ways you can work with me to discover your unique essence. My Medicine Sessions are one-to-one shamanic ceremonies that focus on womb healing, shamanic clearing, and activating your ancient feminine power. It includes take away tools and alchemical exercises that will allow you to flourish as your own medicine woman. 🌿 You can also come to a Womb Medicine healing circle. There will be one in Ojai and one in LA at the end of June 🌸 In June I will be back in Ojai and available again to do in person treatments. It has been a while since with all this traveling I have been working mainly through Skype, so I am really looking forward to this! Pop down from LA, make a day of it and stay connected through the link in bio! 🌸 love! #themodernmedicinewoman #wombhealing #empowerment

When was the last time you checked in with your true desires? How many times have you forgone them? Did they seem unimportant? Was it too easy to ignore that soft contraction in your gut that told you what you wanted? Chances are by now, you have forgotten what it means to 'just know' what you want and that crisp raw urge of desire has left you. You have not been told that desire is like a muscle that you build, day in and day out. It's the tiny whisper that you pay attention to over and over again. As women, keep following your desire! Don't stop until you know exactly what you want. Let's put these beloved men, who are trying so desperately to give us what we want and who are looking for any clue on how to do it, out of their misery! You owe to yourself and those you love. Start now. Write a list of 10 desires. Tomorrow write a list of 20. Get more specific with every line. And listen to your body. It will tell you exactly what you want! 🙌🏼 Photo @sundays_are_for_lovers

The ancients pictured life as a great tree that had its roots in spirit and sent its branches through every particle of matter. Your spinal column is a branch of that universal tree, and in your sexual pleasure you feel it's sap rising through you. You are a channel of this sacred sap, this divine love juice. Your sexuality is the Goddess' expression through you. Photo via @templeofleaves

This is why I love the work I do with pregnant women! I'm always banging on about it. And now I've found this quote, I'll 'say' it again: (>> read 'til the end bit about the Sun Dance!) Birth in other cultures is Initiation. This is not only because it marks what anthropologists have called a rite of passage in the life phases but because it naturally stimulates and awakens the sleeping snake power. Birthing is a woman's organic opportunity to become empowered through a challenging, physical encounter with the forces of life and death. A birthing woman actually stands on the edge of life and death, at the doorway between them, and (in service to the race) brings a new soul from there to here. What could be more shamanic than this? No wonder Native people say that warriors who dance the Sun Dance do so in order to match the experience, and call up the courage, of a woman in labor ~ Vicki Noble Photo via @carriagehousebirth and @villageobstetrics (at San Felice Circeo)

Ladies, it's time to have some fun. One of my favorite things to do is undress and put my pussy in the sun. Yes that's right. Find a spot around the house (or if you're lucky sneak this position in next time you're on the beach), get comfortable with some pillows and allow your pussy to soak in the rays of the sun. It's profoundly nourishing and energizing. There is a simple womb practice that you can add to it to make the most of this time to connect with your physical and energetic body and it only takes a few minutes. ☀️lie comfortably on the floor with your legs bent and knees hip width apart. ☀️put your attention on where the light touches your skin. Be specific about noticing the warmth on your inner or outer labia, or the breeze on your clitoris, and breathe gently in and out as if you were breathing from your pussy. ☀️then place your hands over your womb in an inverted triangle and breathe the light and warmth in from your pussy through to your womb. Collect some sunshine in your womb. ☀️now imagine sparkly golden white sunlight coming in from your pussy, passing through your womb and coming out at the top of your head where your crown chakra is. Bring the light back down through your crown, your womb, and all the way out through your pussy. The potency of the sun is real and it is a blessing to connect our feminine magnetic field to this masculine power. This exercise is also great to help alleviate any stuck feelings of shame and melt away our inner critic...if you find this challenging it may be because you have not connected with your pussy or your womb with love for some time. Be gentle with yourself and take it real slow if you need to. When you think about it, if the rest of our bodies are kissed by the sun, why not our most beloved parts? Much love to you, Carlotta Photo @nymphnyc #pussypower #sunshine #wombhealing #wombwisdom

EASTER EGGS! Just like when I was a kid 🐣 There's nothing like having an epic Italian celebration for two days running, 20 people round the table and round the clock eating! Eric said he couldn't believe it until it actually happened 😂 #familyheals #italy

Everything in life has been sung into existence. Everything has its own song. Still your mind and tune in. Learn to navigate this world. #themodernmedicinewoman #lifeissacred #water #motherocean #creationsong (at Mount Circeo)

In India the feminine is in everything. In the slow pace of life, the chaos, devotion and the magic...try making plans here and you'll notice that it's close to impossible. It's a surrender-to the-flow-or-die situation. Yet it's your ego that really dies so you may as well wrecklessly jump in...there is nothing to lose and so much freedom to gain. This morning on the banks of the Ganges it seemed fitting to participate in this scene. The complement to the flow of the feminine is this pure masculine force: tenacious, immense, one directional and stubborn. This force is not so willing to surrender ;) and that is also the beautiful dance of life. #ganges #india #lifeasprayer #themodernmedicinewoman #willpower (at Ganges, Rishikesh)

I woke up this morning for my 5am puja. Myself, a few holy cows dotted here and there and three sleepy black puppies for company. And of course God/Goddess, who is all around here. Here on the Ganges, the mother of all rivers, the river of life, I start each day by sending out a prayer. Some days I'm calling in the soul of my child, others I am thinking of the people I love, while all around me the ancient magical rituals of an Indian morning unfold. 🌺 #creationsong #sacredlife #lifeasprayer #ganges #indialove (at Parmarth Niketan Ashram Rishikesh)
