It’s pretty safe to assume that if you have a yoni, you’ve likely experienced some sort of imbalance or infection at one point or another. Whether it’s a UTI, yeast infection, or bacterial vaginosis – vaginas are incredibly powerful, yet also incredibly sensitive. 

That’s in large part thanks to the vaginal microbiome, the complex ecosystem of microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, and yeasts that call your vagina home. When things are thrown off, that’s when infections happen.

Yoni health isn’t just about infections and microbiomes, it’s also about how connected you feel with your body, and any tension you may be carrying that affects your pelvic health and your sense of pleasure.

There’s a lot that goes into yoni health and taking care of it is a huge act of self-care. That’s why we’re sharing three tips to help you boost your yoni’s health!

1) Keep your toys clean

We *obviously* love our toys here at YPP, with one big caveat – you need to keep them clean!

Even the best quality toys (which is all we carry) can be home to infection-causing bacteria if you don’t clean them – hopefully after each use. Luckily that’s super easy to do with water and a gentle cleanser. 

We make it even easier to keep your toys clean with our Yoni Egg Cleanser Oil & Toy Cleanser Spray ($59.95 AUD). This combo includes a cleanser both a cleanser oil and a toy cleansing spray. 

Your crystal toys will love the cleanser oil. Infused with antibacterial oils that also promote relaxation and connection, this oil helps reset and cleanse your crystal toys so they’re ready for you the next time you reach for them. 

The toy cleansing spray is the perfect cleanser for your glass, silicone, and steel toys – with added moonstones to aid in connection to your intuitive, grounded feminine. This combo will protect the health of your yoni by making sure your toys are cleansed physically and energetically! 

2) Use yoni friendly menstrual products

Just like you want to keep your toys clean to boost your yoni’s health, you also want to be mindful of what products you use while you’re bleeding.

The menstrual products you choose to use are such a personal preference. It depends on your anatomy, flow, lifestyle, and personal preferences. Two of our favorite options are the menstrual cup ($20 AUD) and the menstrual disk ($40 AUD). 

A cup sits in your vagina below your cervix and extends into your canal. A disc, on the other hand, fits back into your vaginal fornix, which is where your vaginal canal meets your cervix. 

Both are made from medical-grade silicone to ensure the health of your vagina and the longevity of the products. Plus they can be worn for up to 12 hours – so you don’t have to think about changing them while you’re out and about during the day or in the middle of the night

3) Practice yoni self-care

You practice self-care for your face with your skincare routine and for your mind when you meditate – so why not practice yoni self-care as well?

Practicing yoni self-care allows you to tap into your sense of sensuality, softness, pleasure, and power. It’s a potent way to connect with your body in a society that often disconnects us from this powerful portal. You deserve to take time and space to connect with this sacred part of your body. Two of our favorite ways to do so are by yoni steaming and using a clay womb mask.

A yoni steam works by applying gentle heat, as well as moisture that carries essential herb oils to the exterior tissues of the vagina and perineum area. Our all-natural Yoni Steam Herbs ($38 AUD) is a blend of herbs to help tone, cleanse and soothe the vagina and for general healing. Yoni steaming may help provide relief for those that experience irregular cycles, intense period pain or pain during intercourse – in some cases due to endometriosis. 

This Clay Womb Mask ($66 AUD) is a powerful healing tool crafted to support the health and wellness of the female reproductive system. The mask features a unique blend of organic rose, organic calendula, and organic comfrey leaf, along with food-grade Australian bentonite clay. 

This all-natural, non-toxic mask promotes detoxification, soothes inflammation, and supports hormonal balance. It's perfect for deepening your connection with your femininity, soothing your mind, and nourishing your body. 

4) Try a yoni massage

Yoni massage or mapping therapy is a healing, powerful, tantric practice involving the whole body, breast, and (if boundaries permit) vaginal massage. It is a beautiful, healing and pleasurable way of sensually exploring and connecting with your body as well as receiving touch and connection from another person, without needing to give anything back in return.

This modality can be incredibly healing and provide an energetic release, even when just done externally. Receiving a yoni massage can help increase pleasure, heal emotional blockages, and allow you to deeply connect with your body and your womb.

You can learn more about this transformational tool in The Golden Yoni Membership, where you'll find a self yoni massage tutorial. We even have a yoni massage therapist directory to help you find a well-trained and professional practitioner in your area!
