Moon Phases & Feminine Power: Your Weekly Cycle Sync – Waxing Moon, Spring Energy & the Wisdom of Trees
from Healing Her Story with Riva Jean-Paul · host Riva Jean-Paul
This week on Moon Phases & Feminine Power, we’re attuning to the energy of the waxing moon—a phase that mirrors the follicular phase of your menstrual cycle, the season of spring, and the wood element in Traditional Chinese Medicine. This is a time of renewal, vision, and forward movement. But how can we pursue our desires and goals without burning out in the process?In this episode, I explore the wisdom of trees as our sacred teachers of sustainable growth. After a physically demanding inner winter (menstrual phase), I found myself at the river asking: How do trees grow so tall, strong, and steady without losing their grounding?Their answers were beautiful reminders of what it means to grow in alignment with nature.If you’re feeling the tension between your ambitions and your body’s need for rhythm and rest… if you’re navigating early childhood wounds, healing burnout, or doing the brave work of breaking ancestral cycles… this episode offers grounded, soulful support.Tune in for practical reflections and somatic insight to help you:🌳 Prevent burnout while honoring your dreams🌳 Align your energy with your body's natural rhythm🌳 Reconnect with the power of slow, steady, supported growth🤲🏼🌹 Plus, I’ve added free trauma-informed somatic meditations in the show notes to help you integrate this week's lessons:Sensing the Support – 5-Minute Daily Somatic PracticeSomatic Meditation on TrustSomatic Meditation for Patience & Anxiety ReliefTake what you need, leave what you don’t, and remember: just like the trees, you are allowed to grow slowly, stretch upward while staying rooted, and protect what matters most.Ready to join us for the Mending The Motherwound Weekend Immersion?!Click here to registerSend us Fan Mail Our intro and outro song, Reclamation (Reborn), is an anthem of remembering.This song was created as a companion for the healing journey, especially for women reclaiming their voices, their rhythms, and their belonging in a world shaped by patriarchy.You’re invited to listen, feel, and let the music meet you wherever you are.Looking for support?
