Jade is one of the oldest crystals used in ancient Taoist practices. Jade was the only crystal used in ancient China by the empress and concubines of the royal palace to manifest good health, longevity and life energy. Using the Jade egg practice, they were able to "milk" the penis of the king. The wisdom of Taoism was impressive in identifying that having a healthy sexual energy helps our healthy overall energy. Even in modern China, jade is still considered incredibly sacred and powerful.
Today, the mystical jade egg is making a radical comeback as an integral part of women's health regimens. In modern times, developing a jade egg practice can be a very liberating and empowering experience, as it provides women with a path to heal themselves with love, and awareness.
Grandmaster Mantak Chia is a spiritual guide and Qigong master who has brought the yoni egg practice to the West.
When a woman does her jade egg exercises and trains her pelvic floor with a yoni egg, it is believed that her chi energy (life energy) is intensified internally, which amplifies her chi energy outward where it is transformed into spiritual energy.
Jade eggs were said to be toning and balancing for the reproductive organs. Jade is also a crystal that focuses on the heart chakra. As we cultivate our practice we will feel more sensual, as if we are awakening to a new life force. Connecting the lower abdomen to the heart is a beautiful, powerful experience. On a deeper level, this can create space for greater awareness and self-healing.
Many women struggle with a weak vagina, which can cause incontinence problems, and problems feeling anything during sex. We women also tend to have tension in the pelvic floor, which can manifest itself through pain during intercourse. When you have a vagina that is either numb or tense, it is difficult to achieve pleasure. By training with a yoni egg, the crystal will act as a weight resistance to tone the pelvic floor muscles, which prevents incontinence, provides more glide, libido and recovery after childbirth.
Pelvic floor training is incredibly important for us women. A strengthened and toned pelvic floor gives us more pleasure and connects us to life energy!
