The menstrual cycle is a foundational resource. Relating to our cycle from this perspective has the power to transform our lives.
Our cyclical nature is an integral part of who we are and how we exist in this world. Each day of the menstrual cycle, we experience subtle changes and hormonal shifts that inform how we respond to and receive our lives. When we acknowledge that we are hormonally, emotionally, physiologically and energetically supported in different ways each day, we respect the truth of our bodies and learn to work with our rhythms, rather than against them.
Although this is changing, the menstrual cycle has not received the respect, care, gratitude or education that it deeply deserves. Patriarchal attitudes towards the experiences of the female body have created long-standing and cross-cultural menstrual shame. This has effectively disconnected the majority of menstruating people from one of the greatest blessings of living in the female form: access to the power and wisdom contained within the menstrual cycle.
The Cyclical Living Immersion is a celebration of the menstrual cycle and all that is cyclical. It is a powerful resource for honoring the experiences of the female body. It is a guide in the practice of authentic and respectful self-exploration. It is a reclamation of our right to feel in tune and in trust of our cyclical body.
The most common feedback I hear after teaching workshops on holistic menstrual education is this: I cannot believe I have never learned this before. The information is not fluffy. It is grounded in science. It illuminates the brilliant orchestration of our hormones and physiology. And yet, this wisdom is nothing new. In truth it is a remembering of the original relationship humans had to the menstrual rhythm: one of respectful reverence.
This immersion provides a comprehensive and holistic approach to menstrual education. Its intention is to support an empowered and connected relationship with your menstrual cycle. When we remember the wisdom of our bodies, we no longer need to search outside of ourselves for it.
