Hey y'all!! I just visited the Yoniverse!! Amazing! This sister will teach what your momma didn't teach you and she (your momma) probably wants to know!! 😂 Shemora that workshop was excellente!! I can't wait until the next one." --Jill
"My yoni steams have been wonderfully beneficial. Thank you! I also use my chair to smoke my body with oud." --Anonymous
"So after about 3-4 days after the steaming I went to the bathroom and I had this pinkish brown tinged discharge. You could tell that it was either a breakdown of some type of scar tissue. Sorry for the TMI.
That happened for a day 1/2. I had moments where I could actually kind of feel something and usually I would be afraid, but I was freaking ecstatic!!! Thank you thank you thank you. I finally feel that adding to the family will actually be possible. I got some fertility test and for the next few months I will be testing to find out my ovulation time frames. You also have a regular customer so make sure you keep the good stuff in stock hun. I will be ordering a blend plus a little extra for tea every month." --Yoni Steam Client
"This Chic right here is a bad mama jama! The Yoniverse Workshop was awesome Shemora Sheikh. Thank you for being in the world and sharing your gifts with all of us." --Shawn
"I had a fabulous time! All of the lesson were fun and kept me interested. Being connected with my femininity in so many ways fills my soul with a special power that no one can take away! Shemora is an amazing teacher that understand all kinds of chakras and personalities. I love ❤️ her lessons.... may the Yoniverse power posses your souls and fill you with joy as well." --Valyncia
"Really wish I could make this workshop a second time! I loved it so much! As a woman, this workshop was so beneficial, I learned things about my body I didn't know, and even thought was "broken". Amazing how powerful communication between women can be, opening up, and sharing information. My yoni loved it and she gets pampered because of what I learned from it. Oh and did I mention the belly dancing!!!! Talk about fun, all round awesome time! Good vibe, good time, and good knowledge. Well definitely be attending another!"
--Megan
"I hosted a Yoniverse/Womb Wellness workshop about a year ago. The lovely Shemora Sheikh led a group of women on a journey of exploration of the female anatomy. Learn how to get in touch with your sexuality using what you already have! No, this is not one if those romance parties. It was a great time with an enlightened group of women. Shemora is so generous for sharing her beauty and knowledge with us." --Jessie
"I'm just glad I followed my heart( I trust Shemora) and attended (the Yoni Steam Circle), because my mind was like wth lol! I thought I would feel awkward, but there was nothing awkward about it...only that I had to resist cracking jokes lol." --Joy
"I had the honor of building with 3 insightful and enterprising women on Saturday at The Yoniverse Workshop in Durham. Shemora Sheikh did an amazing job sharing her knowledge of yoni healing/womb wellness, yoga, and belly dancing. Melita Quick brought us info on the incredible product Cherish Pads. And Shawn Trimble has developed an out of the box smokeable sage stick that I will be getting my hands on very soon!" --Kischa
"I had the opportunity to attend a Yoniverse Workshop in DC with Ms. Shemora and it was a wonderful, informative and FUN experience. From belly dancing to self care of the "yoni" it was great to learn natural remedies to common day-to-day challenges. She really creates a safe space to ask all of those questions you forgot to ask in 7th grade health class or the dr. after having a baby. :) As a new mom, I really appreciated the belly wrapping. Overall, I highly recommend it!!!!" --Joline
"My new favorite pair of earrings!!! Love these new pick ups. Thanks so much Shemora for your awesome artwork in these!!!" --Meagan
"Special thanks to Lady Shemora Sheikh for the amazing head wrap demo. The ladies loved it." --Lynn
"Special Thanks to Shemora Sheikh for hooking us up with the Beautiful Henna Tattoos today...We enjoyed our visit with you. We appreciate your time, effort, and creative creations!!! It really added a special touch to my daughter's Special night (Prom)! --Jaime

"Thank you Shemora Sheikh for the graduation henna! I love it!" --Clarissa
"Mommy and me henna by Shemora Sheikh. Thanks again love!" --Shionka
"My new henna! Thanks to Shemora for doing it for me and Aysha for hosting the party! I love my sisters!!"
-- Alia
"Can't wait to gain more knowledge on the power of us women steaming our Yoni's.
The Law of attraction is so in affect for me right now. Just when I am going to the next level of understanding this ancient method, the opportunity presents itself for me to come together with some of my Sistars & basically get a full course on the healing powers of steaming our Wombs & why this is so important." --Daliah
"Thank you so much Sis, this pawpaw of sisters will never be forgotten. I have been lifted up in my sisterhood status! Now I can relay the message you gave us last 🌙night, about our bodies and how to nourish them. I can't wait until the next one! Peace! Yoni ❤!" --Khaleelah
"Thank you for hosting this event....Shemora Sheikh I look forward to the next one." Jamelia
"Thanks again for inviting me to the Spontaneous Sisters Sunday. Loved it. I really enjoyed meeting everyone! They're all so nice and very interesting to talk to." --Charlene
"My son had fun and said he really enjoyed himself. Just the guys. 😊 look forward to the next Father-Son Chess Event." --Ifaseyi
"Yes they (my children) did (remember). They always learn so much from your classes. We are a fan!"
--Faatimah
"Very refreshing! It's (Yoni Steam Circle) amazing ladies!" --Miko
"Just finished a class on how to make Kumbucha. Got to taste some made with peach tea. Sooo good. We each went home with a jar of mother (starter). Thanks Shemora Sheikh. Can't wait to start." --Pam
Thaaaaank You!! Can't wait to get all my tools & begin brewing this week! --Carie
"I am enjoying all the things she is bringing to my life. Things like sprouting my beans. Never really did that before. I really learned a lot from her. EVERYTIME I am with her she teaches me through actions about gentle parenting and how to be a teacher for my children. I love her cookbook and it had gotten me to experiment with food and to get excited about food again. Don't think I will ever be fully gluten and dairy free but I have definitely cut back." --Faatimah
"I just want to say thank you so much for providing this lovely info on homeschooling. I'm so looking forward for the next videos and more. Your blog is just amazing. I love reading y'all life experiences and journeys. Please keep up the great work. And again, looking forward for more wisdom and knowledge coming from your way." -- The Mahdi Family
"My new classroom masha'allah. I am going to put a tall walk through gate to keep babies out and the table and chairs fold so when needed I can fold them and let babies play or let the kids do their rougher play there. The tablets have outlets to charge up top there and no wires for that or the computer are visible within reach of kids and they are all taped in place. The pencil sharpener I love, don't ask me why I am just very excited about it. I think Shemora Sheikh and Rites of Passage Learning Center and I need to do more classes together. Masha'allah I learn so much about patience from us working together." --F
"Thanks to my homeschool coach Shemora Sheikh a twww.moorishrites.com/1st-teacher-videos.html my classroom is almost completed. These homeschool coaching videos are just so inspiring to me. We are our children's first teachers." --Kenia
"If you haven't heard me talk about Moorish Rites/Rites of Passage Learning Center, Hakim Ziyad-Bey and Shemora Sheikh are two of the most wonderful people you could ever meet and they give the power of a very special and I believe important education to their young students...they emphasize the importance of personal growth and spiritual, cultural, and community development in their students and those around them. From the intentionality of the food we put in our bodies to the intentionality of living and learning, the lessons they teach go way beyond a, b, c. They teach to a child's capability and they hold the bar high as it should be; they teach joy and simplicity, the power of friendship, language, community, and mutual respect. I've never been around people who made me feel so okay to make mistakes as a parent and yet so willing to take that journey with me and say, "here, let me show you a different approach," with such patience and genuine community responsibility and engagement while at the same time remaining very real. If you feel like there's a component missing in your child's learning, it may be the social, cultural, spiritual, and personal lessons he or she might be able to get through Rites of Passage." --K.G. Roe Owen
"A friend told us about Rites of Passage Learning Center, we came to see it and fell in love. The center is perfect." --Rachel
"I was looking and praying for a safe understanding place to take Troy while I had him during the summer. I needed a place that understood his differences and embraced them instead of judging them. After one meeting with Shemora and her husband I knew my prayers had been answered." --Erin
"No suggestions we love everything. You guys rock, thank you so very much!!!" --Christy

Fatinah & The Gold Adornments Discussion
*Spoiler Alert: If you haven't read the book, you may want to avoid this page. We will reveal parts of the book through discussion etc.
" I can't put my phone down. ..reading this book!! Big ups!! <3" --Kenesh
"A wonderful read. The twist and turns keep you wanting to envelope each character. Routing for Fatinah, yet being mad and gasping at the same time. In her brother you can see youth and naivety, yet as you turn the pages and the secrets reveal themselves, it will make you question those truths you thought you just read. I found myself gasping at what I was reading and at the same time intimately feeling, my village, my village…why do we do the things we do to those we love, and wanting to literally hug Fatinah." --Sondra Holt
