Menstrual Cycle
Awareness
​
As women, we are cyclical beings, and can easily connect with all natural cycles - of the moon, of the seasons and of life & death. Most of us have never been taught this information, aspects of our cycles are often dismissed, ridiculed, shamed, medicated and we are meant to be the same socially accepted, busy, productive woman all month long...
​
By bringing awareness to our Menstrual Cycle we have the potential to really understand our very own unique rhythm. It is very simple but profound in its capacity to heal, empower and transform. It's a direct line to yourself, to the many facets and subtleties of your being. Menstrual Cycle Awareness (MCA) is like a light going on - where we suddenly see the connection between the outer world and our inner ecology.
​
We have an oracle inside us, an inner compass, a perfectly tailored self-care and stress-management system. In practicing Cycle awareness we hold the capacity to truly understand our own nature, and assist the Divine feminine in her steady return to power.
​
​
I hold 1-1 sessions, circles, workshops and year-long journeys to help you get to know your cycle and understand how to tune into this unique guidance system, and grow your own cyclical wisdom.
​

Discovering Menstruality
​
My initiation into the world of Menstruality came in a moment of divine synchronicity (as all the very best things do...)
​
Once upon a time, a deep soul sister named Amber had found my details and was interested in my work with the Divine Feminine. At the very same moment, I had discovered details about her Moon Mother work. Just as I was emailing her, my phone rang - it was her! We talked for an hour. It felt like coming home....
​
From that point on, I immersed myself in as many books and teachings as possible, began to chart my cycle, and did the Moon Mother Training with Miranda Gray. At the time my Cycle was causing me a lot of distress. I was seeing a Gynaecologist for abnormal bleeding, and was lined up for an ablation/hysterectomy. I thank the Goddess, every cycle, for meeting Amber, as from that point on I began to truly trust and listen to my cycle, instead of medicating it, fearing it and wanting to change it.
​
Amber shared her MCA workshop with some of us and we have been supporting each other with our Cycle awareness ever since - sharing our realisations, holding each other in the deep, mysterious unfolding of this daily, practical wisdom.
​
In 2017, I was lucky enough to join Red Schools 'Women's Quest Apprenticeship' (now the Menstruality Leadership Programme) with Alexandra Pope & Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer, which was such an amazing experience and journey. To spend such time immersed in the 'Wild Power' teachings and with such trailblazers for women acknowledging their cyclical knowledge - just wow!
​
In 2022 I completed their Menstrual Medicine Circle Facilitator Training to be able to guide deep dives into cycle awareness through this amazing psycho-spiritual process.
​
It's now almost 10 years on from my 'switch on' to the powerful rhythm within, I love sharing with others and helping other women discover their innate power....
​
Hope to share time and space with you soon....xx
