F.A.Q
How do I find "your" stone for Yoni Eggs and Shakti Sticks?
I personally believe that there is not "the" perfect stone for every woman, but that in each cycle of our life one stone (more than another) will be the most suitable for you . There are several criteria and questions to ask yourself when choosing your stone:
- Do I like the color of the stone?
- Do I feel a positive emotion/state of being when I look at this stone?
- Do I recognize myself or my current needs in the description of the benefits of the stone?
- (If I'm sensitive to astrology) Does this stone match my ruling sign/planet
There is no right or wrong choice. If you are a beginner or if you are really in doubt when choosing a stone, it is always better to turn to rose quartz, which is a safe bet for the vast majority of women.
If you've been using an egg for 2-3 weeks and don't feel anything in particular or feel that this egg isn't for you, don't hesitate to try another stone that suits you. will definitely match more. You can keep the unused egg in your pillow for example, or on an altar, or in your room to benefit from its positive impact.
How to choose the size? (Yoni Eggs & Shakti Sticks)
All eggs (except Nephrite Jade) come in 3 sizes:
Size L: 45mmx30mm
Size M: 40mmx25mm
Size S: 30mmx20mm
For beginners I would recommend using size L to start with. It is also the most suitable size for women who have had childbirth. Over the regular use of the egg, the dexterity and the vaginal sensitivity increase which makes it possible to pass to a smaller size like a size M after generally 2-3 months of use. Size S is best suited for women who have never had sex, women with a naturally very tight vagina, women prone to vaginismus, or women with 6 months to 1 year of practice with an egg in size M.
For Shakti sticks, 2 sizes are available: 10cm or 18cm
Shakti sticks size 10cm are "awakening" and discovery sticks. Most useful for massages and especially clitoral massage.
Shakti sticks size 18cm are G-spot and A-spot stimulation sticks (points inside the vagina).
Can you feel pain with a Yoni Egg?
It may happen in rare cases to feel physical discomfort during the practice of the egg.
- If you suffer from vaginal dryness, it is recommended to rub a little lubricant on the egg before inserting it to avoid any discomfort or pain.
- If you help yourself with a finger to take the egg out (using the egg without a string) you may feel a little discomfort when the egg is expelled.
- If you use an obsidian egg, pain may appear because this stone strongly stimulates the fire element in the body. It is recommended to use it for short periods of time at the beginning (2 hours max) in order to avoid any physical pain. If you feel pain, remove the egg.
- It is possible to feel slight cramps (as at the beginning of the period). If this is uncomfortable/painful for you, remove the egg and try again another day.
The egg is an object of intimate care and emotional healing. It can reveal pain related to sexual and/or emotional trauma. This is part of the Yoni Egg practice liberation work. Nevertheless, this practice must remain a practice of well-being and gentleness towards her female body. Some women experience things more intensely and will need to practice on a more ad hoc basis than others.
How often to use the egg?
It varies and depends on:
- Your intention/need
- Your vaginal sensitivity
- Your subtle/energetic sensitivity
- The frequency of your sexual intercourse
The practice of the egg is gentler in "horizontal station": that is, while you sleep. The egg is inserted in the evening at bedtime and removed the next morning. It is a practice that you can do 5 days a week when you are a beginner or an occasional user (outside the rules of course!). For the more seasoned you will have developed a greater intuition and subtle listening to your intimate needs... and will intuitively feel how many times/cycle you need to use it.
At first, to get started, to familiarize yourself and to reassure yourself, you can use the egg with a string (like a tampon) and keep it when you are awake and in a seated position for 1 to 2 hours a day. example. You can repeat the experience as many days as you need until you feel ready to spend a night with it.
Can the egg get stuck?
Yes and no.
The egg can't get lost somewhere in your body, it's physically impossible because it will stay in your vagina.
However, if you don't use a wire to pull it "forcibly", it is possible at certain uses (and especially at the beginning of your practice) that you will not be able to push the egg towards going out for sometimes 2/3 days.
This is completely normal and for several reasons:
- You haven't yet acquired the physical dexterity to push it (that comes with time).
- You have a pretty tight vagina naturally and you subconsciously hold it inside.
- You tense up as you try to kick him out.
- You need its therapeutic action for a longer period of time than you agreed with yourself;)
Are there any contraindications to using Yoni Eggs?
The egg can be used by all women, however it is not recommended if you are pregnant or in the period immediately after childbirth. Consult your doctor or midwife before resuming your practice with the Yoni Egg.
The egg should not be used during menstruation or if you have a vaginal, vulvar or bladder infection.
The Yoni egg shouldn't hurt, if you feel physical pain remove it
Can you use a Yoni egg when you've had an IUD inserted?
There is no contraindication to the practice of Yoni eggs with an IUD.
Is there a risk of vaginal infection?
The stones we have chosen are known to be safe for intravaginal use. As long as your egg is properly cleaned between 2 uses and you use a sterile thread, there is no risk of vaginal infection.
If you are prone to frequent vaginal dysbiosis, you can reassure yourself with probiotics (especially for the vaginal flora) daily at the start of your use of eggs.
Why are the eggs all pierced?
Apart from the Nephrite Jade Egg, all the eggs we offer are drilled. A pierced egg can be used without inserting a thread like an unpierced egg. Nevertheless, having a pierced egg can accompany you from your beginner practice to more advanced practice. We use a neutral dental floss (without menthol), pass it through the hole of the egg and tie a knot of the desired size like a tampon.
How to clean your egg?
Once the egg has been removed, pass it under water, cleaning the surface and running the stream of water through the hole. You can also use a mild soap. Keep it in its pouch until next use.
All the eggs are physically and energetically cleaned before being dispatched, however you can regularly recharge them on a rock crystal for example.
Can Yoni Egg be used during sex?
Opinions differ on the matter! There is no medical or physical "risk" per se although if you decide to keep an egg during penetration it is IMPERATIVE to inform your partner and to adapt the report in order to avoid any pain.
Our advice is to wait until you are familiar with their use before using it with a partner.
You can put your egg in for the night after sex, there is no contraindication.
You can start by keeping it by practicing oral sex first and/or masturbation in order to realize the effects that the egg causes.
What are Shakti sticks for?
The Shakti sticks allow an active exploration of the body and pleasure (where the practice of the egg is a rather passive practice). The sticks allow you to apprehend alone or in pairs the masculine and phallic dimension of sexuality in complete safety. Their surface is fully polished and soft to the touch, there is no risk of injury.
The small sticks can be used with vegetable oil as a massage tool for the whole body (alone or in pairs), they allow muscle relaxation conducive to the awakening of sexual energy. They are also ideal for clitoral massages and allow the use of natural tools with multiple properties of the stones used.
The large sticks are intended to arouse a woman's three orgasmic gates: the clitoris, the G-spot (located near the entrance of the vagina) and the A-spot (located at the bottom of the vagina in the area of the fornix).This practice is for those who:
- Want to get to know their body, for themselves and to be able to guide their partner
- Want to reclaim their relationship to penetration in a safe environment.
- Wish to use natural tools in their sexuality.
- Want to practice female tantra energy rituals.
The properties of the stones used (rose quartz, aventurine, obsidian) can be felt more or less quickly depending on your sensitivity.
Obsidian Staffs are much less "confrontational" than Eggs. They awaken a "wild" and animalistic sexuality and desire; they are also very effective in stimulating blood circulation for women who need a long time to find a physical state of arousal.
Sticks are durable items that can be used for a lifetime! They must not be thrown on the ground to avoid damaging them.
At what age can you start practicing Yoni Eggs?
There is no minimum or maximum age required to practice with Yoni Eggs.
Can you practice the Yoni egg if you have never had sex?
It is not contraindicated, it will be better to use a small and pierced egg so that it can be removed like a tampon. However, there is no obligation to use eggs if you are a virgin, this choice must remain personal and intuitive.
