When you think about self-care, a healthy vagina might not be number one on your mind. Perhaps, activities like getting a massage, having a healthy meal or meditating may come to mind. For some, exercising can be a form of self-care. The face and physique are usually central to self-care activities and products. It’s those parts of us that the outside world sees to which we dedicate the most time and money.

But, what about vaginal health? Your vagina is arguably the most precious part of your body. Sure, you can’t show it off at Homecoming or post selfies of it, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t deserve as much TLC (if not more) as the rest of you. A healthy body starts with a healthy vagina. Have you spoiled your vagina enough lately? Here are ways to pamper your va-jay-jay.

Get Her All Fancied Up

Your vagina deserves to look as flawless as the rest of you for a night out – or even a night in. Treat your va-jay-jay to a spa service like a bikini wax, sugaring or laser session. MADAMENOIRE covers the different hair-removal procedures here. If you usually handle this hair removal at home, going to a professional and relaxing while someone else does the work with high-end products is a great way to spoil your vagina.

Commission A Portrait

Your vagina is beautiful and truly a work of art. So, turn it into a literal work of art. Find an artist you know and trust – possibly one who specializes in yoni art – and commission a portrait of your vagina. This can be anything you want. It doesn’t have to be an exact replica. It can be more symbolic or ethereal. It can be how you see your vagina or how you feel about it. Hang this piece in a room that is intimate or relaxing and look at it any time you’re not feeling good about your lady parts.

Seduce Her

A happy vagina is a healthy vagina. So, masturbate, but like you want to impress your vagina. Take as much time with it as you would a partner. Caress and seduce it. Try a new toy or a few toys. Try out different types of lube and find the one that feels best. Dim the lights and create a sensual environment. Learning more about what feels good alone helps you communicate your desires to a future partner.

Buy Sexy + Breathable Panties

You know when it’s time to refresh your underwear collection. You wouldn’t wear clothing that was tattered, faded or ill-fitting, and you shouldn’t wear underwear like that, either. Invest in some quality underwear. Stay away from anything tight or with itchy seams. Look for a flexible, soft fabric that moves with the curves of your body. Stick with natural fabrics. And get something that makes you look really good because even if nobody can see it, you know it’s there.

Enjoy A Day Without Undies

Let her breathe a little. Underwear traps moisture in your vagina and depending on how breathable (or not) the fabric is, it can create the perfect environment for bacteria to grow. So going commando can help prevent this issue. It can feel especially nice to go commando right after a workout, so the sweat around the area can evaporate. Be sure to wear something airy and flowy when you do this, like a long linen skirt or cotton dress. (And pro tip; do not douche your vagina after a workout. It is self-cleaning, says the Center for Women’s Health.)

Eat The Foods She Loves

Just like you keep your whole body healthy with food, you can cultivate a healthy vagina through diet. There are tons of foods that your vagina craves. These can help maintain a healthy pH balance, fight UTIs, improve the smell of your vagina (reportedly) and so much more. MADAMENOIRE covers some of the best foods for your vagina here. So be sure to add them to your shopping list.

Try A Yoni Massage

A Yoni massage is a massage of the vagina. It can be a sexual practice but doesn’t have to be. In some cases, it’s done as part of partner play, and often is part of tantric sex. However, some wellness and healing gurus see it differently. The yoni (vagina) is part of the base chakra, and can both hold onto emotional trauma, as well as hold onto a lot of your internal strength. Massaging this area can help release that trauma and unlock that strength.

This practice can involve a combination of motions and attention to different areas, like stroking the vulva and lips, tapping the clitoris, massaging the G-spot, and, in some cases, also massaging the hips, breasts and nipples. A Yoni massage, when done correctly, can ultimately help with vaginal health as well as emotional wellness.
