Autocuidado y ciclo menstrual

Dormir, comer, tomar agua, movernos, relajarnos… Son hábitos tan cotidianos que muchas veces pasan desapercibidos. Sin embargo, forman parte del ecosistema que sostiene nuestra salud hormonal y pueden influir en cómo vivimos nuestro ciclo menstrual.

A la vez, el ciclo también influye en nuestros hábitos: hay momentos en los que cambian nuestra energía, nuestro apetito o antojos, el nivel de estrés... Entender esta relación nos ayuda a dejar de pensar el autocuidado como una lista de reglas y empezar a verlo como una forma de escuchar qué necesita nuestro cuerpo en cada momento.

En este taller vamos a explorar cuatro pilares del autocuidado:

  • Alimentación e hidratación
  • Descanso
  • Movimiento
  • Manejo del estrés

A partir de información práctica sobre estos cuatro pilares y su relación con la salud hormonal, vamos a ir conectando esos conceptos con nuestra propia experiencia.

Durante las dos horas del taller vas a encontrar:

  • información y recomendaciones generales sobre cada uno de los cuatro pilares y su relación con la salud hormonal;
  • ejemplos de cómo las necesidades pueden cambiar a lo largo del ciclo menstrual;
  • propuestas para observar tu propia experiencia y reflexionar sobre tus hábitos de autocuidado;
  • un espacio cuidado para pausar, compartir con otras mujeres y aprender también de la diversidad de experiencias.

Este encuentro es para vos si...

  • querés comprender mejor las necesidades cambiantes de tu cuerpo a lo largo del ciclo y descubrir ideas de autocuidado que puedas adaptar a tu propia realidad;
  • te interesa regalarte un momento en la semana para pausar y conectar con vos misma;
  • valorás los espacios íntimos donde compartir experiencias y aprendizajes con otras mujeres, en un espacio cuidado y en español.

No es necesario haber participado en talleres anteriores: este encuentro está pensado para que cualquier mujer pueda sumarse.

What the blazes! 

This UK summer has been hotter than most of us can remember. Some of us are loving it. Others are counting the days until it's cooler. 

Why are we all so different? 

According to Chinese Medicine, we all have our own unique balance of Yin and Yang. So while one person might thrive in a hot, energetic summer, someone else may find it completely depleting. 

If Yin and Yang have always sounded a bit mystical, here's a quick look. 

⭕ Yin - Feminine = Still, Cooling, Nourishing, Receptive, Moistening, Interior 

⭕ Yang - Masculine = Moving, Warming, Transforming, Active, Drying, Exterior
 
This summer has been incredibly Yang. 

While that can feel energising, too much Yang can make it harder to slow down, switch off and truly rest. 

You may have noticed more: 

⭕️ Tired but wired
⭕️ Restless sleep or insomnia
⭕️ Headaches or migraines
⭕ Anxiety or feeling overwhelmed
⭕️ Irritability or a short fuse
⭕️ Neck and shoulder tension
⭕️ Hot flushes or menopausal symptoms flaring
 
Acupuncture helps restore balance by nourishing Yin and calming your nervous system. Better still, you get permission to lie down, close your eyes while Sophie or Sunila work with your body's underlying patterns, giving you the chance for a deep rest and reset. 

Our next Acupuncture Collective is on 17 August, just a few days after the spectacular solar eclipse. Whether you're into lunar cycles or not, it feels like the perfect moment to pause, reset and head into late summer feeling more balanced. 

We'd love to see you there.
 
Our next Acupuncture Collective is taking place between 2pm to 8pm on Monday 17th August.
