Let’s take a tiny peak into my yoni steaming journey. I am a survivor of Endometriosis and PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). Over the years I have suffered from extreme vaginal pain, very heavy and painful menstrual cycles, clotting, and irregular menstrual cycles. Medically wise it appeared as if I was not making any progress. So inside my head I figured it was time to start my own research and trying a more natural and holistic approach to felling better. While conducting my research I started hearing this talk about yoni steams. I started doing more research on yoni steaming and the power of herbs. I decided to give it a try. I mean what could it hurt? So I started off buying steams from a a few ladies. Within a couple of weeks I noticed a difference in my pain levels. It was important to me to know what herbs was in my steams and the benefits of each one. Therefore, I studied even more and began making my own steams. I used my own steam recipes for a few months. I would steam once a month. For me meditation is very important while steaming and visualizing my body being healed. I noticed my vaginal pain level greatly decreased. The amount of blood clots with my cycles decreased. The heaviness and pain with my cycles decreased. Also I started having regular cycles once a month. Before starting my steaming journey I had to take pills on regularly for my vaginal pain and definitely with my menstrual cycle. I walked around every day being very uncomfortable and feeling as if I got super kicked in the vagina. It made playing with my kids very difficult. It made carrying my last baby very painful. I now feel like I am able to live a moderately pain-free and normal life thanks to yoni steaming.
Yoni steaming has greatly improved my self-esteem, my self-confidence, my self-worth, my all round self-love. It continues to help me heal physically, mentally, spiritually.
I must say that all women are different. No two vaginas are just a like. But for me and my vagina yoni steaming is definitely a BIG WIN.
