What Is Yoni Care & Why It Matters
Share
Your yoni is more than just a body part—it’s the center of your creativity, intuition, pleasure, and power. In many ancient traditions, the yoni is seen as sacred, and caring for it was a spiritual practice just as much as it was physical. Now, in modern age, we can finally understand the biological processes occurring in our bodies and how fundamental yoni care is for our reproductive health.
Yoni care is the practice of intentionally nurturing your vaginal and vulvar health with natural, respectful, and fundamental, biological practices that support your physical, emotional, and energetic well-being.
Let’s break it down.
What Does Yoni Care Include?
Yoni care can include many practices, from physical hygiene to energetic healing. The key is that it’s intentional, gentle, and sacred.
Here are some examples of yoni care practices:
- Using natural oils (like This Wombman's Yoni Oil) to hydrate and soothe the vulva
- Yoni steaming with healing herbs to support uterine health and detoxification
- Avoiding synthetic soaps and perfumes that disrupt your vaginal microbiome (Vulva Wash is a great option)
- Practicing daily womb massage or self-connection rituals
- Visiting a trusted aesthetician for sugaring or waxing
- Eating foods that nourish your hormonal balance and gut health
- Wearing breathable, natural-fiber underwear
- Listening to your body’s signals around pleasure, boundaries, and rest
✨ Why Yoni Care Is Important
Your vagina is self-cleaning—but the vulva, the external part, needs support.
Daily life can irritate your yoni: shaving, tight clothes, synthetic fabrics, hormone shifts, stress, birth control, and even certain diets. These can lead to:
- Dryness
- Ingrown hairs
- Scarring or dark spots
- Imbalance in vaginal flora
- Discomfort during intimacy
Yoni care helps:
- Maintain a healthy vaginal microbiome
- Reduce inflammation and irritation
- Support postpartum or post-wax recovery
- Boost circulation and increase pleasure
- Create a deeper connection with your body and womb
Just think about it, our mouths get dedicated care, brushing our teeth at least twice a day, flossing, whitening, annual dentist visits, just to name a few basics. Our mouths are directly connected to our stomachs and our digestion affects the smell of our breath, the health of our teeth and gums and the health of our tongue. And all we do is eat a few times a day.
Now consider Our Yoni. We use the bathroom several times (in an hour sometimes!), we bleed for 5 days every month, and we insert all kinds of unnatural things (tampons, condoms, sex toys) and we even push a human baby out of it! Yet we are taught to only wash externally and see our gyno once a year.
Our urethra is directly connected to our kidneys and our uterus is indirectly connected to our colon and gut. The our membranes are semi permeable, which allows certain components to pass back and forth between our urinary tract, our reproductive tract, and our digestive tract. So whatever is happening to our gut, is also happening to our Yoni.
Which is why, one annual visit to the gynecologist does not count as Yoni Care.
🌸 Why This Practice Is Radical
In a society that often teaches women to ignore, fear, or numb their bodies—taking time to care for your yoni is an act of rebellion and healing. It’s a way of telling your body:
“You are sacred. You are worthy of care. You deserve softness and attention.”
It’s about breaking generational shame and tuning into your intuition while also understanding the fundamental, biological care our bodies need.
🛁 Creating a Yoni Ritual
You don’t need to do everything at once. A simple yoni ritual might include:
- A warm bath or shower with natural soap
- Applying This Wombman’s Yoni Oil
- Massaging gently while setting an intention or affirmation
- A few deep breaths with your hand over your womb
It takes five minutes. But the impact is deeper than skincare—it's soul care.
A Sacred and Scientific Return
Yoni care is a return to yourself. A reconnection to the wisdom your body has always held.
Don't wait until something feels wrong to tend to your Yoni. You can care for her now— Because the best way to operate our bodies is with a deep understanding of her mechanical function and the spirit that guides it.
