Many of us are aware of how crystals can be healing; we might even keep one in our pocket or scatter them around our homes. Crystals are thought to aid in healing, confidence building, intuition enhancement, and some even bring luck. But what if we used all of that sacramental power for our sexual lives as well? Could crystal sex toys be the missing component in our wellness regimen in the modern period where we are being more aware about how we work, how we live, and what we consume?
We have been encouraged to investigate the tremendous emotional, physical, and spiritual healing properties of crystal sex toys by sex educators in the conscious health field for many years.And who can blame them—from blissful orgasms to womb healing? Rosie Rees and Amy White, two of my go-to sex educators, and I had a lengthy talk this week. We discuss their experiences with giving up the vibrator and going au natural as coaches, educators, and company owners who are assisting individuals in reclaiming their sexuality.
Conscious Pleasure: What Is It?
When Rosie Rees began studying Kundalini yoga in Bali in 2014, she discovered the Jade Yoni Egg, she tells POPSUGAR. Rees is a well-known sex educator from Australia who teaches women all around the world how to harness the power of their pleasure.
“The experience was really healing for me. It was the first time I had ever used self-care to touch that area of my body. No, not in a sexual sense. not having to make someone else happy. without needing to depend on another person for orgasmic experiences, validation, attention, or affection. It was just me communicating in a calm, caring manner with my yoni.”
Within health groups, where the emphasis is on slowly restoring the sacred connection to our vagina, the idea of conscious pleasure is prevalent.
Being conscious means we are being present in the current moment; acknowledging the mind-body-spirit connection and using our sensual energy to embody the whole essence of our being. Conscious pleasure is an intentional, deeply therapeutic practice that can help us to reframe our perspective on pleasure — and shifting the shame, blame, and guilt that may have been placed upon us by education, upbringing, and societal conditioning.
“I first discovered crystal sex toys when I was going through a period of conscious celibacy,” Amy White, a UK-based sex educator, coach, and owner of Temple of the Feminine, explains. “I started my sexual healing journey and was relearning how to be with my body again and undo some of the unconscious patterning I had around sex and self pleasure. Crystal wands and eggs provided me with an alternative tool to connect to my yoni and pleasure in ways I might not have been able to access alone without the artificial stimulation of vibrations”.
