Moon Phases & Feminine Power - Your Weekly Cycle Sync: What’s Really Going On Before Your Period | Hormones, Trauma, and the Waning Moon

from Healing Her Story with Riva Jean-Paul · host Riva Jean-Paul

This week we honour the depth of the 🌓 waning moon and its mirror in our bodies — the premenstrual phase, also known as “inner autumn”. As the light of the moon decreases and energy begins to recede, our bodies move into a phase of release, introspection, and recalibration. During Scorpio season — as we focus on the powerful and transforming reproductive energy — I guide you through the science, the somatic truth, and the gentle practices that support you during this phase.You’ll learn:🥀 What’s really happening hormonally and neurologically when you move from ovulation into the pre-menstrual window.🥀 Why this phase brings up more than just “PMS” — how trauma imprints, nervous system shifts, and the body’s wisdom converge.🥀 How to move through the four bodies — physical, mental, spiritual, emotional — with practices that work, not just “wait it out.”🥀 How to lean into this phase as a powerful time of release, rather than simply endure it.Whether you’ve felt disconnected from your monthly cycle, overwhelmed by symptoms, or simply curious about what your body is doing each month, this episode is your invitation to step into new consciousness and ease around your cycle🌹🤲🏼 Recommended Practices & Meditations:Below are three specially chosen meditations to accompany this phase, support your nervous system, and deepen your connection to the inquiry of this inner autumn time:Trauma-Informed Somatic Meditation for Rest & Restoration — Listen hereCreating Your Felt Sense of Safety — Listen hereSoftening Meditation for Tension Relief & Grounding — Listen hereFeel free to choose one (or all) of these and carve out space for support this week.Send 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?
