WWR 24 : Menstruation – Myths, Mysteries, and Rituals

from Wellness Women Radio · host The Wellness Couch

Once upon a time women’s cycles were revered, celebrated and ritualized however in more recent times menstruation has been reduced to an inconvenient, unhygienic and messy event that most of us would be happy to get rid of. However, is this attitude detrimental to our hormonal health and the way we view our body? This week, The Wellness Women delve into the world of the sacred feminine practices traditionally used by women to honour their menstrual cycles and how best to use these in our modern world to help create balance and harmony. Dr Ashleigh and Dr Andrea also take you through history to understand why we’ve lost that connection with our body and explore some of the bizarre attitudes different cultures subjected women to during their periods.
