39. Honouring the Seasons Within: A Softer Way to Experience Our Cycles

from Women don’t Rush · host Maria Rush

Episode Summary: In this gentle and grounding conversation, I explore holistic womb health and the natural seasons of the menstrual cycle together with holistic yoga teacher and womb healing guide Lexi Dranidi. So many women have been taught to be in constant doing mode, viewing their monthly rhythm as something inconvenient. In this episode, we soften that narrative and return to a more compassionate understanding of the cyclical nature of womanhood - from the inward stillness of our inner winter to the expressive bloom of our inner summer - and how understanding these phases and the wisdom of the womb can deepen our self-compassion, energy awareness, creativity, rest and empowerment. Host: Maria Rush, Leadership Mentor & Speaker, helps capable and high-achieving people navigate the human side of leadership to experience more calm, joy and fulfilment. Through a proven communication framework, Maria supports you as a parent, partner and professional to become the leader people are truly looking for - authentic, compassionate and adaptable.   Guest: Lexi Dranidi, Yoga teacher, Bodywork Therapist & Womb healing Guide Website: https://www.lexidranidiyoga.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lexi.dranidi.yoga   Enjoyed this episode?
