What a beautiful way to celebrate ourselves in the season of new beginnings - Spring . 
Here’s how we gathered together and connected on the everlasting journey of growing with our bodies. 
We’re all blooming this year .

The mission behind the Love Your Yoni Workshop was to gather with my uterus bearing community
and reform the miseducation and shame that is centered around our reproductive and menstrual health . 
We all agreed that the conversations about our vulvas and it’s health didn’t really
go any further pass that cringing 5th grade mixed-sex sex-ed class - actually most of us
didn’t even have an educational talk about periods with a parent or guardian, 
we all kinda just figured it out as we began to grow with our uteruses . 
For most of our early moments in life we basically just let our periods happen to us but now
​we’re here in this space to introduce comfort with freedom through open conversations surrounding pussy talk.

Resources we shared
Organic sanitary products only !
The Honey Pot company was a fan favorite
amongst the group. Wether you like the tingle
of the infused herbal pads or perfer the non-herbal 
selection, you know that your vulva is safe from
bleaches and chemicals like conventional options.

Relieving menstrual cramps
​
If you perfer natural remedies to reduce your
cramping there are a few things you can try.
1Yoni steaming or bathing in soaks that have anti - inflammatory properties like our Sensitive Yoni Soak .
2Drink hot teas that are great for anti inflammatory
purposes like ginger and chamomile.
3Use heating patches like these
from Rael
or a reusable heating pad.

Maintaining a healthy ph free of bacteria
Just as in other areas of care for your vulva, maintaining your ph is done internally and externally.
So filling your lifestyle with foods, drinks, and moments of care that keep your flower happy is key.
Most people take daily supplements for probiotics but if you’re not that great about staying with the
routine ​of vitamins in the morning try out drinks like kombucha- a fermented sparkling drink full of probiotics.
There are also tons of foods that can be added to your meals daily to aid in a juicy peach, like
sweet potatoes, garlic, oranges, spinach, yogurt or non dairy cultures, flax seeds, and so much more.
​
The Honey Pot companys’ sensitive foaming wash is a go-to grab for me when rinsing the outer surfaces
 of my pubic region as it aids in a feeling of being more refreshed. The plant based wash is great for the area
with ingredients like garlic and lavender ​that naturally maintain a healthy ph.

Pubic hair and not shaving / waxing for others 
Biggest myth formed against the beauty standards of a vulva to appeal to the male gaze is that hair = smells ...
sis if you rinse & maintain proper hygiene as you do the rest of your body you will quickly discover the lies in that statement . The secretion of sweat that surrounds your pubic region is a reflection of what you feed your insides, so naturally your scent will be different time to time but 
all of those “smells” are seamlessly washed away each
day / night as you refresh and wash yourself . ​​

Session 205: The Connection Between Menstrual Health & Mental Health
Individuality & Comfort 
​
Understanding your body and finding
what works for you is the golden key to taking charge
in the relationship you and your yoni have.
Test out new menstrual products like free-flow panties,
or the cup. Or discover patterns by using period trackers. 
Honestly the options are endless and it’s 1000%
possible for you to create the relationship
you deserve with your pussy.
