Way Beyond Kegel Exercises: A Yoni Egg Increases Pleasure, Health & Vitality
Let’s go way beyond Kegel exercises. A yoni egg, or jade egg, increases pleasure, health and your overall vitality. What’s a jade egg? It’s a tool made of natural material used to strengthen your internal vaginal muscles, also called a yoni egg. Yes, the material matters!
Vaginal weightlifting is an ancient Taoist practice originating in China thousands of years ago. Jade, and specifically the variety called Nephrite, was traditionally used for yoni eggs because it’s considered to bless all that it touches, offer protection, and possess an ability to balance male and female energies, which in turn balances the energy between you and your partner.
This practice, in which the egg is inserted into the vagina, stimulates the acupuncture and reflexology points of all organs in the body. Your pelvic floor, including your vagina and cervix, is a microcosm of your entire being.
Resistance training and weightlifting with your egg develop and strengthen these muscles, which regular practitioners report results in immense capacity for life-altering pleasure, connection to your most authentic being, and a myriad of health benefits including remedying incontinence and preventing pelvic organ prolapse.
Hard truth: Most vaginas are numb. And weak. And sadly not feeling much of anything, let alone the deep pleasure that can (& should!) be part of life every day. This deeper pleasure is a vital feeling of being alive, breathing, pulsing and in connection with our life force. It can motivate us, heal and nourish us, enhance our immunity, inspire us and act as fuel for consciously building our lives and relationships. It’s a direct line to our highest potential, to our Source, God, the Universe…to consciously creating abundance and the life of our dreams.
Fact: Kegel exercises are NOT the solution. There is no resistance, and therefore no strengthening with these “exercises.” Just like lifting weights with your arms, without weight, you’re simply contracting and not building muscle and strength! This is vaginal weightlifting. Yep, it’s a thing.
Whether self-pleasuring or engaged with your partner, the results of beginning a vaginal strengthening practice are noticeable almost immediately. Typically within a day or two of practicing, you’ll begin to notice tremendous expansion of sensation and feeling within, and significantly increased pleasure.
An invaluable benefit of a vaginal weightlifting practice is that it can reconnect you with your self, to feel and hear your body and your voice in a safe space, to experiment and play, and in the process, experience natural lubrication.
When women’s bodies produce fluid and lubricate, we are receptive and open, we feel safe and curious, eager to experience pleasure and bliss, whether we’re alone or with our partner. It’s vital to listen to your body and respect its messages. Take the time to relax and breathe, to allow your pleasure and stimulation to unfold naturally until you’re producing natural lubrication. This is the time, not beforehand, to insert your egg.
This is also critical to respect when with your partner. If a woman is not lubricating, she is not receptive, she is not ready to be entered. She might not feel safe and supported. She needs time, caring and trust to get there.
