What is Menstruality?

Menstruality* is the missing piece of the puzzle for women’s health. It will take you from chaos to calm and have profound effects on reducing PMS and PMDD symptoms, period pain and other menstrual health challenges, as well as a life-long, life-changing impact on everything from self confidence, relationships, work-life balance, to creativity, achieving goals and living the life you desire and deserve.

It allows you to reclaim your experience a woman - for yourself and for all women. By learning about the psycho-spiritual energies of the menstrual cycle and working closely with them, we can achieve a new harmonious relationship with our cycles and ourselves as women.

During the sessions we will look at all aspects of your current symptoms, along with your wider health and lifestyle. You will be asked to track your cycle daily while we are working together and bring your tracking diary to each session for analysis. I will advise and share tools that can help to provide symptom relief while also teaching you the foundations of Menstruality as your own personal self-care system.

We will also explore the three Maps of Menstruality, revisit your first period known as Menarche, look at the deeper psycho-spiritual meaning behind our menstrual cycles and explore how we can prepare for Peri, Menopause and Post-Menopause with this knowledge. The teachings will initiate you into your full authority and dignity. You’ll be able to better pace your energy, calm your nervous system and achieve a deep sense of belonging to Life itself.

Menstruality is both a pragmatic and everyday, while also transforming the way that you see and experience life as a whole.

* The term Menstruality came into being to describe the female life process in 2004 when New Zealand psychotherapist, Jane Catherine Severn, wrote an article Menstruality: the great feminine gestalt in the Gestalt Journal of Australia and New Zealand. She was concerned with the fact that we did not have a word to describe what she calls the 4 M’s—menarche, menstruation, menopause and the mature years. And without a word, the full power of this process could be easily ignored or dismissed. To remedy this she proposed the word Menstruality. To learn more about the wonderful Menstruality work of Jane Catherine's visit her website. You can also see a 2023 Insta Live discussion we had with Jane Catherine here.

đź’™ Beat the Blues this Monday đź’™

The Acupuncture Collective 
Appointments available 2pm - 8pm (last few spots left)
Monday 10th November 

SAD, otherwise known as seasonal affective disorder, can hit hard, as the clocks turn back in October, and the daylight fades...
 
What is SAD?

MIND, the mental health organisation, describe SAD's symptoms as difficulty in concentrating, feeling sad, guilty or hopeless, being more prone to illnesses such as colds and infections, sleeping too long or too little and changes in hunger or sexual interest. 
 
It is a reaction to seasonal changes in daylight, which disrupts our body clock and hormones like serotonin, which affect mood, appetite and sleep.

🌟 But here’s the good news 🌟
 
Acupuncture is the answer to our hormonal prayers! 

It helps regulate our nervous system, calming us down or energising us, depending on which points around the body are focused on. 

It also helps boost serotonin and melatonin, which boost our mood and help us sleep. 
 
We can also use acupuncture to strengthen our immune system, by using points on the Lung Meridian and tonify what the ancient Chinese called Wei Qi! Go on… Google it! All that and the loving embrace of our warm, friendly group clinic...
 
See you on 10th November...

Today we are welcoming the darkness at Samhain/Halloween…

Traditionally, in Celtic and other communities, this evening would mark the transition between the lighter half of the year and the darker half.

Transitions and womanhood feel synonymous, as we travel through life, with the rhythms of our bodies. I wonder if we feel the transitions of the natural world more keenly because of this...

Some believe that at this time of year the division between this world and the 'otherworld' is at its thinnest, allowing spirits to pass through.

Ancestors are honoured and invited home, while harmful spirits are warded off. People wear costumes and masks, disguising themselves as harmful spirits, to ward off unwanted attention from the actual spirits.

Death Café - A Space for Life’s Deepest Conversations

3pm this Sunday at Moon.

Join us for an intimate gathering where we drink tea, eat cake, and talk about death in a warm, welcoming environment. 

A Death Café is a discussion group with no agenda, objectives, or themes - the conversation simply flows from what those present bring on the day.

What to Expect
â­• Small group-directed discussion about death, with no set topics or conclusions
â­• A gentle, open space where all perspectives and curiosities are welcome
â­• The chance to listen, to share, or simply to be present
â­• Tea, cake, and conversation in good company

Why Death Cafe?
In our culture, there are few places where we can talk openly about death. Death Cafes create a safe and relaxed space for these conversations, helping us to reflect on life’s great mystery together. Since the first gathering in 2011, more than 21,000 Death Cafes have been held in 93 countries - a testament to the universal human wish to speak honestly about mortality.
