Womb Yoga is about reconnecting with the deep blood wisdom of womb cycles throughout the whole of a woman’s life, from pre-menarche to post-menopause. The practice of Womb Yoga enables us to access the inner guidance of our source wisdom so that we may more readily reside in wellbeing and peace with our experiences as women. Womb Yoga is a simple, subtle and delightful route to access feminine spiritual authority, a powerful set of techniques and attitudes for all women to use on their journeys toward spiritual empowerment, self acceptance and contentment. Womb Yoga is an evolving therapeutic approach to yoga specially developed to support women’s health and healing over the past fifteen years by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli. Women’s retreats, individual sessions, training courses for yoga teachers, classes, workshops and camps all give access to the practices of Womb Yoga at many different levels of experience and connection.

🌬✨ To breathe with reverence is to honour prāna śakti — the power of life itself.

Our breath is more than air. It is the vehicle of the life force, moving through us with every inhale and exhale. 🌿

Take a moment now: close your eyes, breathe deeply, and feel the vitality that flows with each breath.

💭 What does your breath mean to you?
👇 Share your reflections in the comments, and if this resonates, pass it on to someone who might need a reminder of the sacredness of their breath today.

This wisdom comes from Yoni Shakti: A Woman’s Guide to Power and Freedom through Yoga and Ta**ra by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli — a book that continues to inspire breath, freedom, and power in readers around the world. 📖✨

❓ WHAT IS YONI SHAKTI ❓

🔻 YONI - source, cvnt
⭕️ SHAKTI - power

Yoni Shakti is SOURCE POWER.

Deep in root lies Adi Shakti, the primary, feminine, creative power of which all things originate from.

The entire cosmos, goddesses, planets, nature, love, you and I — she is the primordial energy that creates, preserves and destroys it all. She moves in cycles, always.

So what happens when we get out of the way?

We FLOW 🌊

We flow and move in sacred s3xuality, sensuality, creativity, life force energy - YONI SHAKTI!

How has your life changed since connecting with Yoni Shakti? 🔻✨

Dear friends in Turtle Island, also known as the USA 🌎💛

🫄🏾 Sometimes we perceive that pregnant people alone are the container for the baby.

👶🏾 But did you know pregnant people are equally contained by the prana of the baby?

Uma Dinsmore-Tuli writes of this deep interwovenness in her book born from decades of experience with mothers - Teach Yourself: Yoga for Pregnancy and Birth.

We know prana is vital energy that undercurrents all of life — it animates our bodies in divine connection to the universe, and is the creative force that both sustains life and determines death.

Wrapped in the loving warmth of the womb, the power of the baby's life force tenderly surrounds the mother or parent.

This is the web the Yoga Nidrā Network continues to weave 🕸️🪡

A community where the sacredness of pregnancy is recognised, a place where you are supported through the whole arc of pregnancy, birthing, and beyond 🧡

🔻

No outer teacher can come close to
the deep sense of right wisdom and understanding
that flows through a woman who is absolutely and profoundly
connected with her own intuitive understanding.
So womb yoga, like many of the other approaches to yoga practice
that have been developed by women over the past fifty years,
is not about following the teachings of particular tradition, text or lineage.
It promotes direct access to the presence of the inner teacher.

🔺

An excerpt from page 61 of Yoni Shakti written by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli

This is the magic of womb yoga 🩸✨

You don’t need more teachers, more knowledge or more advice.
You need to hear your own voice again and remember your feminine wisdom that was never truly forgotten ⭕️
