Show Notes
Are you aware of menstrual cycle awareness (MCA for short)? And if so, do you apply it to your life?
In my work with women, I have noticed that MCA is not known about nearly as much as I think it should be. (Boys and men will benefit from knowing about it too.)
In this episode I speak about:
- the work of Lisa Lister
- how I now work (and rest) in harmony with my cycle
- avoiding giving from a place of resentment with MCA
- gently informing and educating my daughter
- cyclical wisdom for when you’re no longer bleeding
- discomfort during ovulation
- advocating for ourselves to find out more
- PMT = premenstrual truth — it's not 'just' being hormonal
- a brilliant podcast to listen to (see below)
Themes: The Menstrual Cycle, Periods, Mental Health, Physical Health
I mention Lisa Lister and her book ‘Love Your Lady Landscape’ as well as 'Wild Power' by Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer (this is the book I forget the name of).
'28ish Days Later' is the podcast with India Rakusen that I reference.
At the end, I share a poem written by me.
