I have said it before on this blog, and I will say it again:
One of the BIGGEST turning points in my journey was walking on the beach back in September of 2012 and deciding to consciously start THANKING my body for the amazing monthly gift SHE gave me. I consciously said OUT LOUD a big huge fat THANK YOU to my womb for creating and giving life to 2 lovely, sturdy boys. I consciously started loving my breasts (up until then that I always felt were too small) OUT LOUD and with my own hands – thanking them for lovingly feeding those 2 boys who were healthy and sturdy.
A few weeks later, I was at the HoneyRoot retreat where I met Lisa Schrader and introduced to her “baby” Awakening Shakti. Not only did Lisa start to help me answer my question, “What does it mean to be a woman, defined by women not by Proverbs 31 nor Victoria’s Secret?”…but Lisa also started to share with me how to love my body even more.
I spent hours putting into practice what she shared with me. I spent hours in front of the mirror naked – yes you read that right! – learning the curves of my body, learning my own Yoni and drinking in the woman’s body that I now can honestly say I love and mean it.
Around that same time I found Sara Avant Stover and her work The Way of the Happy Woman. I immediately new I had yet again found a sister in my quest to learning more about how to BE a woman in this woman’s body. In her book, Sara breaks down the year into the four seasons and teaches women (and men willing to listen) how our menses mimic this cycle of seasons on a monthly basis. She teaches us the power of pulling in, of listening deep and of becoming our own best authority. Her work has added so much to my personal and professional life – more than I can share here.
When her course for “Reverse Our Curse” came up – it was a no brainer. I was IN. I wanted to learn from her wisdom stemming from her own troubled years with her menses. I wanted to learn from the inspirational women she was hosting. And I wanted to put into practice an even deeper devotion of aligning my body with the Earth and the Moon. It was an investment I am so glad I made in myself, for myself, my community and the world.
For I believe the more women who return to the Ally of their menses, the more we will shift the negative energetic balance of the world into that of a energetic positive, creating a more holistic, in tune population with the world in which we inhabit.
Sara has now revised this course to be more user friendly and at your own pace. This is 15 years of Sara’s personal work wrapped up into a 6 week course that will run from Oct 2 – Nov 20th. Here is a link to learn more: Reverse our “Curse”
Are you ready to invest in yourself, your family, your community and your world by making your menses your ally?
