How to Honor the Sacred Yoni
So..what is the Yoni?
Isn't it interesting that so many of us learned all sorts of vague and confusing terms about our most sacred space as children? You've heard them: vajayjay, pee-pee, no-touch zone... the list goes on.
Your vagina is your most sacred space. And that is why so many of us are reclaiming the word Yoni.
The word Yoni is Sanskrit for "sacred space"
When we are connected to our most sacred space, we are connected to the deepest part of ourselves. Our sacral chakra. We have self-love and we respect ourselves. We see this space as our most sacred space and we welcome only those who are worthy into this sacred temple.
To live connected to the yoni is to be connected to the Divine Feminine.
Part 2: How to Honor your Sacred Yoni
1. Let go of the belief that the yoni is 'dirty or shameful'.
So many of us grew up believing our yonis were dirty, looked strange or needed to be a certain way to be considered beautiful. No matter the shape of your yoni, no matter if you have pubic hair or not, your yoni is beautiful!
2. Be mindful of who you welcome into this sacred space.
Often when we live connected to the yoni, we find we are more selective about who is worthy to enter our sacred space. Before welcoming a partner into this space, ask yourself these questions:
Q:"Has this person gotten to know my heart? My spirit?
Q:My essence? Does this person truly value me and respect me?"
If the answer is yes, they may be allowed to connect to you in this powerful way. If not, you may find it better to wait. **Remember that your yoni is your most sacred space and so it is okay to be selective about who is allowed to enter.**
3. Be mindful about what you insert into the yoni.
Our yonis are regarded as mucus membranes. This means anything inserted into it will be absorbed by the body. Consider switching to a menstrual cup, if you are currently using commercial pads & tampons. Which has been linked to causing ovarian cysts, cancers etc. Due to the harmful chemicals, perfumes and preservatives within these feminine 'hygiene' products.
Your yoni is sacred, sister. Honour her. Celebrate her. Love her.
