The Cyclical Wisdom of Womanhood | Sanna Aulén

from Light the Campfire · host Hedda Rehnberg and Lise Pretorius

What if PMS could be a superpower?We as women are cyclical beings, yet often move as if life was linear. Instead of attuning to natural phases and the wisdom they bring, we tend to adapt to be constantly “likable”, nurturing, and extroverted. And it seems we’re missing out.In this episode, we speak with Sanna Aulén, expert in women’s holistic and postpartum health, somatics and therapeutic bodywork. We explore how listening differently to our body, honouring our emotions (without getting attached to them) and embracing our cyclical wisdom can guide us back to self-discovery, empowerment, more energy and deeper connection.This is also for everyone who has women in their lives, this conversation is an invitation: to celebrate sensitivity (as receptiveness to life around us), reclaim power, and tap into the gifts that being a cyclical being brings to ourselves, our relationships, and our world.
