When you receive your yoni egg, inspect it to ensure that the egg was not damaged or chipped during shipment.  The first thing you want to do is cleanse the egg. Cleansing your egg will remove any energy from whoever handled the crystals before you received it.

To cleanse:

Step 1: Sanitize your egg. Wash egg thoroughly with water and soap and air dry. You can also boil a pot of water, let the water cool for a little while, then let your egg sit in the water for about 15 minutes. Do not boil the egg; it may crack.

Step 2: Spiritually cleanse your egg. Most cleanse their eggs by leaving their egg on a window sill overnight under the full moon or sun. Smudging is also a popular way to spiritually cleanse your stone. This involves using dry sage bundles and passing your yoni egg through the smoke. Cleansing your egg in salt water from the ocean or pink Himalayan salt for a short period of time is also a popular method.

Step 3: State your intentions and affirmations. You can set an intention by meditating with it or telling the egg exactly what you would like it to help you with. Manifestation!

Then it's time to insert your Yoni egg! Relax your pelvic and vaginal muscles and insert with the drilled portion pointing downwards as if you are inserting a tampon. You may attach a string through the drilled portion for those that "fear it may get stuck," or you can do without the string. 


How long should I keep the egg inserted?

You can keep your egg inserted for hours, however long you would like and whatever feels comfortable to you. Allow yourself enough time to bond with the crystal and absorb the energy as well as get your practice in! 

You won't feel the egg in the entire time and you may not have to flex your muscles the entire time.
