Yoni Eggs are a powerful tool for transformation, sexual healing, self-pleasure, Svadhyaya (self-study), and self-sovereignty.

Now that you’re aware of these incredible benefits, it’s essential to properly cleanse your Yoni Egg before use.
Yoni Egg Cleansing
Clean your Yoni Egg crystal with warm running water and all-natural soap. DO NOT use boiling water as it changes the energetics of the crystal. For deep cleaning, soak the crystal in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar. While rinsing, hold the crystal with love, bless it with your thoughts and words, and envision it radiating with love.
If your crystal has a pre-drilled hole, cleanse the inside carefully before and after each use.
Bonus Crystal Cleansing Tips:
Charge your crystal in direct sunlight for a few hours when you feel called to.
Full Moon Cleansing: Charge your crystal under the moonlight to soak in lunar energy.
New Moon Cleansing: Bury your crystal in the earth for deep energetic cleansing. Be sure to clean it thoroughly before use.
Best Practices for Using a Yoni Egg
Before beginning, tune into your intuition. Is this something your body desires right now? Always listen to your body, and if you have any medical conditions, consult with your doctor beforehand.
Avoid intercourse while using a Yoni Egg.
It's not advised to use a Yoni Egg with an IUD or while menstruating, but listen to your body and intuition.
Avoid using a Yoni Egg during pregnancy and menstruation.
If the egg has slight nicks or cracks, clean it thoroughly before and after use. If the nicks or cracks are large, it may be time to purchase a new one out of safety concerns and ability to keep it sanitary.
In Conclusion:
A Yoni Egg practice is a beautiful path to self-discovery, healing, and empowerment. As you continue this sacred journey, trust your body’s wisdom and honor your unique experience. Whether you're starting a new practice or deepening an existing one, celebrate your connection to your feminine energy and the pleasure that is your birthright.
