What is Yoni Steaming?
Yoni steaming is an ancient self-care practice in which warm herbal steam is directed toward the external tissues of the vulva while you sit comfortably over a specially prepared steam blend. The warmth of the steam, combined with the properties of carefully selected herbs, creates an opportunity for rest, relaxation, and deeper connection with your womb and feminine wisdom.
Many women choose yoni steaming to support their menstrual wellbeing, cultivate a sense of ritual and self-care, encourage relaxation, and reconnect with their bodies during times of transition. It may also support feelings of grounding, emotional release, and nourishment.
Each steaming journey is unique, and a personalised consultation helps determine the most appropriate herbs and practices for your individual needs.
Yoni steaming is not suitable for everyone and should not be used during pregnancy, menstruation, or certain medical conditions. Individual suitability will be discussed during your consultation
What May Yoni Steaming Support?
Yoni steaming may support:
Menstrual comfort and cycle awareness
Feelings of pelvic congestion or heaviness
Relaxation and stress reduction
Emotional release and nervous system regulation
Connection with the womb after significant life transitions
Fertility awareness and womb connection
cycle regulation
Postpartum healing
Perimenopausal and menopausal self-care
Recovery from burnout and disconnection from the body
Sacred feminine embodiment and self-care practices
What is a Myrrhophore?
A Myrrhophore (from the Greek myrrh-bearer) is one who carries sacred oils, perfumes, and aromatic resins for the purpose of blessing, healing, devotion, and anointing. In the Christian tradition, the Myrrh-bearing Women were those who lovingly brought myrrh and precious spices to the tomb of Jesus, becoming witnesses to the mystery of resurrection.
Today, the path of the Myrrhophore may be understood as that of the sacred anointer — one who tends to the soul through fragrance, touch, prayer, and presence. A modern Myrrhophore carries the ancient wisdom that healing is not only physical, but emotional, spiritual, and embodied. Through ritual anointing, they honour the body as a living temple and create space for remembrance, renewal, and sacred transformation.
To walk the path of the Myrrhophore is to become a bearer of beauty, devotion, and grace.
What is Anointing?
Anointing is the sacred practice of applying blessed oils to the body with intention, prayer, and presence. Found within many ancient spiritual traditions, anointing has long been used as a rite of healing, consecration, protection, blessing, and initiation.
More than simply applying oil, anointing is an act of remembrance, a gentle invitation to return to the wisdom of the body and the presence of the Divine within. Each touch becomes a prayer, each drop of oil a symbol of grace, nourishment, and sacred connection.
Anointing may support emotional release, spiritual grounding, inner peace, and a deeper relationship with oneself. It encourages us to slow down, listen inwardly, and honour the body as a vessel of spirit.
Through the ancient art of anointing, ordinary moments are transformed into sacred encounters.

FOLLOW THE ROSE PETALS
Over the past seven years, I have devoted myself to deep spiritual and personal growth. I have trained in multiple healing modalities and walked through my own initiations of change, seasons of grief, devotion, and rebirth. Through both study and lived experience, I have cultivated the capacity to hold women with empathy, steadiness, and compassion.
For a long time, it felt as though I was gathering many sacred puzzle pieces, each beautiful on its own. Now, they have woven together into one clear and cohesive offering.
Closing of the Rose is that offering.
At its heart is the ancient rite known as Closing of the Bones, a ceremonial rebozo ritual traditionally offered to women after birth, and now honoured as a powerful practice for life’s many thresholds. Your body is gently rocked with traditional Mexican long scarves called rebozos. You are then lovingly wrapped in these scarves.
Within this sacred space, you are held with reverence. Guided by the light of the Rose, you are invited to soften, release, and gently close one chapter before stepping into the next.
Like a caterpillar entering its cocoon, you are wrapped in warmth and intention. The nervous system settles. The body feels safe. And from that place of containment, something new quietly begins.
Sessions are held slowly and intentionally, allowing deep rest, integration, and embodiment.

“Zera’s Closing of the Bones ceremony was an experience like no other. I felt like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly after being unwrapped. It was such a relaxing and spiritual experience. Highly recommend!”
Debbie
“I was blessed to receive a distance healing through Zera. I found the entire experience so nurturing and joyful. Her genuine concern for my well-being was strongly felt, and so very much appreciated. I felt valuable. I am sure this, coupled with the ‘magic’ of the process, also contributed to the improvement in my health.”

“I recently had the great pleasure of experiencing a personal Sekhem healing with Zera. She is a caring and beautiful soul who uses her many talents with sound therapy, aromatherapy and energy healing to take you on a sensory journey for healing mind, body and spirit. It was so relaxing.
She then used her psychic ability to share valuable insights and messages that were received during the Sekhem. I felt wonderful after this experience and can’t thank her enough for helping me on my healing journey.”
Karen L.
“I have never really been a believer in the power of Reiki. The treatments I had had were indeed pleasant but quite ineffective, that is until I had a Reiki Sekhem session with the wonderful Zera. I have suffered from insomnia for over thirty years and have had to take sleeping pills every night. As for sleeping in the day, forget about it! I have to be at death's door to nod off even for five minutes. Enter Zera! As I am incapable of meditation, she suggested I lie down with a book for an hour. No hardship I thought and duly settled down with a good thriller. I only managed two pages before falling into a deep sleep, to be woken an hour later by Zera calling to discuss what she had picked up. Not only was she spot on with everything that had been troubling me, but that evening I stopped taking the pills. I haven't done so since then and I have been sleeping like a baby, plus I have felt physically, mentally and emotionally stronger. Not only was it a healing process, but messages came through from the Spirit world - including my father who proved so talkative that he had to be told to be quiet so Zera could concentrate on the healing!
Thank you Zera. It was an incredible experience and one I wouldn't hesitate to undergo again."
