frequently asked questions

Womb Wisdom is a way of connecting to your body energetically and physiologically, and learning to orient back into the lower part of your body or your root- the vulva or pussy, the womb/womb space, the ovaries, pelvic bowl, sacrum, perineum and anus. This part of your body is essential to feeling grounded and connected to the Earth within several ancient medicine paradigms. Women in particular, are often disembodied from their root and conditioned to associate guilt, shame or being “bad” with fully inhabiting these parts of the body.

When we are deeply connected to our womb space and root, we are able to tap into the full potential of our creativity, intuition, sexuality and sensuality. We feel regulated in our nervous system and connected to the land and living creatures around us. When we are present in our bodies, bringing curiosity and compassion to our flesh and bones, we unearth deep healing and awareness. Practices to help you feel more embodied and in particular, connected to your womb, pussy and breasts, are your gentle invitation into a world of the mystical and the deeply rooted.

When you become more conscious or aware of your womb and listen to her guidance in daily life, you will experience an emergence of deep truths. Your own truths. There is also the possibility of connecting to the voices of female ancestors that came before you, like grandmothers and great grandmothers, whose energetic and emotional links are still present within your womb space. You may resonate with life energy currents surrounding you in nature- the fields, forests and mountains, the ocean, moon and stars, the horses, coyotes and snakes, and the other beasts that share our world.

Womb Healing is the act of reclaiming and honoring the innate wisdom of Your womb. It is not about fixing; rather, coming home to what is already whole. You are innately whole and wise. When you embark on a path of consciously relating to your womb, you realize that the symptoms you experience are your body’s way of seeking alignment, of asking you to listen.

There are various practices to bring you into connection with your womb space and the lower half of your body. These include:

• intentionally shifting your attention/orienting to the womb
• being receptive to sensations or messages you may receive
• guided breathwork and meditation
• external touch, such as placing your hands on your lower belly
• internal pelvic work, including self-touch and self-massage
• holistic womb tending practices such as castor oil packs and yoni/womb steaming, and orgasms (particularly internal/cervical)

Traditional indigenous cultures across the world carried several threads of embodied knowledge that make up what we know as Womb Wisdom today, along with scientifically researched elements of how we tend to the nervous system in conscious awakened ways. I rely on the wisdom of my body and womb, my well ancestors, the land and my herd to also guide me on my path with clients. You will find your own inner spiritual wisdom or gnosis as you intentionally drop into and connect with your womb space over time.

• Improved circulation and vitality in our tissues
• An improved sense of wellbeing, feeling grounded and connected to our surroundings and other living creatures
• More easeful and regular bleeds, easing of symptoms associated with PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, amenorrhea, fertility concerns and anxiety/depression and feelings of stress
• Heightened capacity to receive intuitive downloads, to feel our body’s messages, improved self-trust
• Increased capacity for pleasure and sensation, both sensual and sexual
• Capacity to be with the mystery, unseen, and the magical
• More attuned with the cycles of your body and the seasons
• Tapping into your creativity and gifts

We believe in the mystical and the deeply earthed-and-rooted. There are unseen mysterious elements of life that weave through all of our narratives and experiences of truth living on this planet at this time and place.

We acknowledge that we are not experts of women’s bodies, rather you are the Wise Woman of your body. You have your own sacred gnosis within your flesh and blood, waiting just beyond your reach for you to access and embody. However, the path of Womb Wisdom is one of remembrance and awakening.

It is about us tapping deeply into the roots and earth of our body, our yoni and womb and perineum and pelvis, and also awakening these areas consciously and unconsciously through rituals and invitations in our everyday lives.

Women’s nervous systems are unique to women.

Tending to them requires an understanding of the unique physiological, energetic and ancestral elements that make up a woman’s earthly and cosmic experience on this earth in this lifetime.

The approaches to waken and maintain/really tend to a woman’s nervous system incorporates the scientific and the spiritual.

This is what we hope to share and also invite you to access within your own body of wisdom, literally, when you access Womb Wisdom services offered by Mindful Mare Wellness. These practices can help you feel regulated in your nervous system, safe in your body and more trusting of your own intuition.
