I've always been passionate about empowering women to take control of their own pleasure, healing, and self-care. But lately, I've been feeling burnt out and disconnected from my own sexual energy.

That's why I've decided to embark on a 6-week jade egg training journey. Guided by the captivating and calming Manjit, I aim to reconnect with my inner self and deepen my practice. This blog will document my highs, lows, and everything in between.

As I sit down to write today's entry, I'm greeted by the first day of my period! It's not the most favourable way to start to this journey, but then again, life rarely unfolds as we plan. My hormones are high, and my energy levels are at their lowest point in my cycle. Yet, here I am, committed to this transformative experience.

Today, the platform featured an uplifting video from Manjit, our guide on this transformative journey. Her message was a heartfelt reminder to celebrate ourselves and shine our own light. For those of us who are shy or hesitant, Manjit encourages us to awaken our brain and nervous system, to step into our power and embrace our true selves.

The Community of Celebrating Women

Manjit also spoke about the incredible group of women participating in this journey. She described it as a safe space to celebrate being ourselves, where each woman brings her own unique beauty and energy. "The most beautiful women are in this group to celebrate us," she said, and I couldn't agree more. It's empowering to be part of a community that uplifts and supports each other.

Manjit's Personal Celebration

As she embarks on leading this jade egg journey, Manjit shared that she will be showing up from her heart and energy. She promised to celebrate each one of us and our individual journeys, creating a space where everything is beautiful and magical. Her words filled me with a sense of anticipation and gratitude, reinforcing my belief that this experience will be transformative in ways I can't even imagine yet.

What Are You Proud Of?

When I pause to reflect, I realize how far I've come in multiple aspects of my life. Not only have I built Wands of Lust from the ground up, but I've also navigated a challenging professional career with focus and dedication. But perhaps what fills me with the most pride is my journey to overcome vaginismus, a condition that once held me captive in a previous relationship.

Overcoming vaginismus wasn't just a physical challenge; it was an emotional and psychological battle that tested my limits. It required me to confront deeply ingrained fears and insecurities, to reclaim my body as a space of pleasure rather than pain. It was a journey of countless doctor visits, therapy sessions, and moments of despair. But I persevered. I educated myself, sought help, and most importantly, gave myself the grace and time to heal.

As I stand on the threshold of this new journey with jade egg training, I carry the pride of overcoming vaginismus in my heart. It serves as a powerful reminder of my resilience and the incredible capacity of the human spirit to heal and transform. I'm not just proud to start this new chapter; I'm deeply honored to share this space with a community of women who are each on their own unique paths to self-discovery and healing.

What Do You Want to Brag About?

Bragging has never been my forte; I've always found it uncomfortable to talk about myself in that way. But if this journey teaches me anything, it's that acknowledging our own greatness isn't bragging—it's self-love.

What Are You Celebrating About Your Life and Yourself in This Moment?

Strength: Not just physical, but emotional and mental strength that has carried me through life's ups and downs.

Determination: The unwavering resolve that fuels my ambitions and dreams.

Fierce Independence: The ability to stand on my own two feet, make my own choices, and live life on my terms.

Curiosity: A mind that's always eager to learn, grow, and explore new avenues.

Intuition: A strong inner compass that I've learned to trust implicitly, guiding me through decisions big and small.

Period: First day, hormones are high, and energy is low.

Masturbation: Every 2-3 days, but the joy is missing.

Last Jade Practice: Over a month ago, before this new chapter beckoned.

This is my first time documenting such an intimate journey, and I'll strive to be as open and honest as possible. If you have questions or thoughts, please share them. Let's empower each other to find our authentic selves and reclaim our well-being.
