Steam Story:
I suffered from painful period cramps for over 10 years. Birth control was the only relief option I was offered. I took a more gentle approach and started steaming consistently while enrolled in the Steamy Chick Institute in the Fall of 2020.
After steaming almost weekly for six months, I no longer need Aspirin to get through my periods. I am so grateful that my cramps have gone from debilitating to manageable. Steaming makes me feel relaxed, calmer and less vulnerable to triggers throughout the day. As I steam, I make time and space to tune out of my head and drop into the wisdom of my body. This ritual is beautiful in that it connects women to their sacred space, all the while nourishing their nervous system and supporting reproductive health.
Feeling my body heal from the power of steam and herbs feels incredibly liberating. Everyone deserves to feel this empowered while reclaiming their health, so I share this practice with everyone I can!
I have a deep respect for our ancestors and people of culture who have passed on wisdom about steaming to us. Without them, I would not have the knowledge about steaming I do today. I honor these cultures, my ancestors, and Mother Earth by creating a ritual of thanks and prayer over the herbs and steam.
