# Celebrate the Sacredness of your Yoni The practice of the Yoni egg is much more than just toning the intimate muscles; it’s a delicate, feminine art of connecting with and listening to our yoni and body, being aware of subtle sensations and guiding the flow of energy within, all while resting in profound relaxation and presence. Rooted in Taoist wisdom, the Yoni egg is a powerful tool for healing and liberation. It helps to dissolve many emotional and psychological issues that women often experience, due to their natural receptivity and sensitivity. Yoni egg practice also helps with eliminating tensions and blockages from the yoni, rejuvenating and opening our entire body, healing our heart and leading to a deeper pleasure. This process allows us to unlock all treasures that reside within every woman’s yoni and to manifest them freely. We become more alive, awakened, radiant, sensual, fulfilled, and relaxed. In this workshop you will discover and experience: * how to connect with, respect and adore our yoni as a sacred gateway of life and creativity, * practical information and techniques of using a yoni egg from Tao tradition, * very important Tantric attitudes to deepen the experience and states, * sensual feminine movements with a yoni egg to awaken and amplify sublime energies of our yoni, * a guided meditation with a yoni egg, and more.

**One quick note on how the community works** **L Community is member-funded.** The standard contribution is **£13 per month** to cover the platform, events, moderation, and safeguarding. If £13 isn’t workable for you right now, you can opt out for now. Support can be changed or cancelled at any time. Support the platform: [www.thelcommunity.com/back-us-now](http://www.thelcommunity.com/back-us-now) **What this is** A relaxed Sunday afternoon book club for lesbian and bisexual women, meeting in person. This is our first event and we will discuss which book we plan to read. It’s low-pressure, calm, and easy to settle into the event. Women usually range from their 20s through to their 60s. Most sessions are a genuine mix of new faces and returning women, so you won’t be the only person coming for the first time. Most people come on their own. That’s normal here, and we make sure you don’t feel it. Hosts introduce people, keep things flowing, and make the space feel easy rather than awkward. If you’re feeling nervous, you won’t be the only one. Many women feel that way before their first book club and end up staying longer than they expected. **Important** This is a female-only lesbian space. That boundary is clear and upheld at events. If that doesn’t work for you, this won’t be the right event. **How to attend** You must register in advance to attend. Register here: [www.thelcommunity.com/events/book-club/](http://www.thelcommunity.com/events/book-club/) **Arriving and support** The table booking is under the name Jenny. If you’re nervous, arriving alone, can’t find us, or have any difficulty at all, you can message at any point – days before, on the day, or during the event. If it helps, we can have someone come outside to meet you. **WhatsApp Jenny** WhatsApp only (calls or messages): **+44 7591 386019** Normal calls or texts will not go through on this number. **Staying connected** Registering for an event is separate from joining the wider community.

**Our March pick is *God of the Woods* by Liz Moore.** **This month’s novel is an award-winning literary mystery that blends family drama with psychological suspense. It explores women’s voices and relationships while delivering an exciting, eerie, and deeply suspenseful story. The book is 576 pages in print or 14 hours and 35 minutes on audiobook.** Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn’t just any thirteen-year-old: she’s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region’s residents. And this isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara’s older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found. As a panicked search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Chasing down the layered secrets of the Van Laar family and the blue-collar community working in its shadow, Moore’s multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances. It is Liz Moore’s most ambitious and wide-reaching novel yet.
