The Sacred Womb with Melanie Swan
It's Time To Shine: A Womb Medicine Poem Guided Practice
A short and sweet episode to share with you a Womb Medicine Poem to restore the beauty and wonder of the womb centre.
It starts with a brief introduction, and then there's a guided practice to listen to the poem with your womb.
I invite you to attune to the feel of the words, the energy, and the response from your womb.
It’s a chance to dip your toe into the potency of your womb, to tap into the void from which all of life is born, and to resonate with the frequency of creation.
I'd love to hear your reflections and experiences— it's your time to shine!
See The Moon shine
Regardless of phase
This is your time beauty
To shine in all ways.
No more push on regardless
No more have to’s or should’s
This is your time beauty
To be as wild as wild woods.
From the depths of your soul
Go with your flow
This is your time beauty
Let go, let go, let flow.
Your womb is the void
From which you create
This is your time beauty
To connect and activate.
Be lovingly ruthless
As you intuit your way
This is your time beauty
Don’t waste another day.
So shine beauty, shine
This is your time
This is your time
This is our time.

Hello, hello, welcome back. And today I feel inspired to share a womb medicine poem with you. I wrote this back when I was creating the Sacred Womb website. I was staying in Totnes with a couple of dear friends in the autumn winter of 2014, 2013, 2014. So I was creating the website and loads of womb medicine poetry was coming through. These are all on the Sacred Womb website, but they're not as podcasts, they're as blog posts, so they're a bit they've got a bit hidden and a bit forgotten about. So I wanted to bring them back. So I'm going to start sharing them on here.
Melanie Swan:So I wanted to explain first what a womb medicine poem is. So with the poem, there comes a vibration, a frequency that provides a remembering like medicine for the womb. So it's a practice within itself and as you listen to it, I just invite you to get comfortable, do a few full breaths, full body breaths, before you start and then listen to the poem and see if it resonates with you, feel the vibration and frequency of it and feel your response to it as you are listening. So I'm going to guide you with this and as a womb medicine practice. And, yeah, I'd love to hear what you think. You can leave a review. If you're on Apple podcasts, you can also leave a review now. If you're in Spotify listening and Spotify yeah, or if you're on Instagram or Facebook, I'll post it on there as well and you can leave your comments, reflections, results on the post.
Melanie Swan:Okay, so let's get started. So find a comfortable position to sit in, just feel your back supported and do a few full body breaths, so that's breathing in from the bottom of your feet all the way up to the top of your head through the nose. Just hold for a few seconds and then breathe out through the mouth down the body. I call this the wave breath, so you can also envisage the waves, the ocean, just coming up your body with the breath and then back down your body with the out breath. I'm just doing this a few times A tuning with the natural rhythm of your breath, a tuning with any sensation as you breathe. Okay, and place in your hands just comfortably over your womb.
Melanie Swan:So tune into the temperature of your hands on your womb and letting your womb know that you're going to be listening to a womb medicine poem, and that poem is entitled it's Time to Shine. Here it is See the moon shine, regardless of phase. This is your time, beauty, to shine in all ways. No more push on regardless, no more have tos or shoulds. This is your time, beauty, to be as wild as wild woods From the depths of your soul. Go with your flow. This is your time, beauty, let go, let go, let flow.
Melanie Swan:Your womb is the void from which you create. This is your time, beauty, to connect and activate. Be lovingly, ruthless as you enchew it your way. This is your time, beauty. Don't waste another day. So shine, beauty. Shine. This is your time. This is your time, this is our time. So that concludes our practice for today. I look forward to hearing from you and how it lands with you. Listen as many times as you wish, share it as you wish, use it in your circles as you wish. I wish you a great day. I'll see you next time.
