A C O M M O N ❔ How far should the sponge be inserted? Can it get lost? What if I can’t get it out?-->>>You'll want to push the sponge as far up/back as you can. It’s important for it to be as high and close to your cervix as possible. The cervix’s hole is the size of the tip of a pencil, so nothing is getting lost in there. And if you are very worried about not being able to get your sponge out, you can sew some unflavored dental floss into it. When you relax your muscles and push your sponge out, you can get it out, especially if the sponge is full. When a sponge fills with fluid, it 'drops' like a full tampon does. Using tampons can condition us to be disconnected from our bodies and unable to work our kegel muscles (because of that damn string). You may find that using sponges helps to grow those pelvic floor muscles and then- you can get some rockin’ orgasms....We encourage you to try to go without the string!😉💦

We both are bleeding, cramping, and testing out a new #vegan oil-roll version of our #crampbalm. We used the same herbs that are in the balm to infuse organic sunflower oil, added our own homemade arnica oil, magic & essential oils. It works✨✨✨And will be ready for the holidays, babes🌹#ourladyofmercycramproll

C R A M P W H O ? The faces of stories of those who apply this potion when muscles are a crampin’! Meet Sylvia @wildtalewort, weaver of words, modern day storyteller and deliverer of snail-mail epistles. She even seals her beautiful letters and tales with wax! In this age of email and instragram, Sylvia’s stories offer a sensory experience that slows time and reignites the imagination. Sylvia uses cramp balm for menstrual cramps (while some folks use it for hand, leg, neck, or other cramps). She had her love snap this shot while she was bleeding and wearing this dress she designates as her moon dress- She sewed it and dyed it with madder, and this is a great example of ritual during one’s blood. Check out her writing, artwork and other creations! DM or email us a photo of yourself with cramp balm to be included in this ongoing series #CrampWho #CrampBalm #OurLadyofMercyCrampBalm #Period #MoonBalm #CrampRelief

C R A M P W H O ? The faces and stories of those who apply this potion when muscles are-a-crampin’? Meet Trash, of Zen House Motorcycles, where she repairs bikes of the Pacific Coast. When we started hanging out, we noticed her hands and she talked about how her work was doing a gnarly number on them. While she’s busy repairing bikes, her hands are needing their own repair. I gave her a small tin of the balm and she began using it every night and she said it gave her hands and muscles immediate relief. You can find her and a lineup of bikes waiting for her services in Point Arena. #CrampBalm #CrampWho #ZenHouse #PointArena

We will soon be stocked in #Philly at @moonandarrow on 4th street. I used to live and work in Philly, so it's extra special to be shipping some body-positive, healing yoni products that direction. #HolySitz herbs pictured here- If you've never taken a sitz bath, it's basically taking a bath in a pot of tea 🛀🏽💛🌱🌼💦 The herbs in here are chosen specifically with new moms in mind, to heal up aching bottoms. #sitz #sitzbath #pregnancy #birth #newmom #thefutureisfemale #matriarchy #goddess

One of our new favorite local gems is @cultofgemini in downtown Grass Valley owned by two rad witchy gingers. They recently had a party to unveil their wonderfully dark & mystical window display and auctioned off their previous window display items- one of which included this watery mer-babe. Perfect for the sponge studio 🐚🌀💦🌀🐚 and bearing some much-needed water energy in these dry and hot times. #bottleopener #mermaid #merbabe #grassvalley #prayforrain #yemaya

Every sponge is different- some are round, some long, some with bigger holes and others with tiny holes. When we ship orders that use the categories of small, medium, and large- this photo shows the approximate size of each (bearing in mind how unique each sponge is). The density refers to how much liquid each sponge can hold. Higher density sponges will sometimes have smaller holes and feel more firm- good if your flow is very heavy. The softer/less dense sponges are very silky, hold less fluid, and are a good way to start for folks who aren't used to inserting anything. The medium density is comparable to a regular tampon in holding fluid. For people trying sponges out for the first time, we typically suggest regular density of either small or medium size. There is a sizing guide in our product description on etsy, though it doesn't show through the etsy phone app. Feel free to contact us about specific questions! #sponges #seasponge #menstruation #holysponge #oceanmedicine #radicalmenstruation #naturestampon
