92: Menstruation part 1: A journey to menstrual empowerment and understanding

Have you ever stopped to consider the profound relationship you have with your menstrual cycle?

Welcome to today's episode! In this exciting first part of a three-part series on menstruation, I dive deep into the importance of discussing menstruation and the often-overlooked aspects of this natural process.

We explore why menstruation is relevant in conversations about female sexuality and empowerment. I’ll be reading a poignant poem about bleeding, sharing journal prompts, and encouraging you to embark on your own self-inquiry. My goal is to help you create a conscious relationship with your menstrual cycle and empower you to embrace this significant aspect of being a woman.

Join me as we begin to unravel the stigma surrounding menstruation and seek to honor the cycles that shape our lives.

In this episode:

  • The importance of talking about menstruation
  • Overcoming societal stigma around menstrual blood
  • The importance of understanding your own menstrual cycle
  • The impact of hormonal birth control on your menstruation
  • Creating rituals and celebrations around menstruation
  • Journal prompts for self-reflection and deeper understanding of your menstrual cycle
  • Understanding the four phases of the menstrual cycle: menstruation, follicular phase, ovulation, and luteal phase
  • The relationship between menstruation and female empowerment
  • Reading of the poem "Women are tired of the ways men bleed" by Judy Grahn
