WE BLEED, GET OVER IT, mmkay?
*love this artwork from an etsy shop I cannot get the name for, LaFacade maybe?
I feel blessed to finally be at a point in my life where I feel a sense of pride in knowing what is best for my body especially when it comes to reproductive health. It took me a long time to get to this point of knowledge, I can only hope that by sharing my experiences with you ladies (and men too!) you can learn about things you may not have known about. We have so many options, it just doesn't seem to be (*cough* profitable) in our popular culture to share all these options with teens. We are told we only can bleed a certain way. Only with a tampon or pad. Well those products are not only spendy for something your just going to throw away but actually quite wasteful and bad for the environment! Now don't get me wrong I had been using tampons and pads up until 3 or so years ago. Like I said, if you don't know you have options how are you supposed use those options? Knowledge is Power. It all started with the Diva Cup. Now I have to say since I started using my Diva Cup I have not looked back! Not a single disposable pad nor tampon has been bought since then. This Menstrual Cup is awesome! It is so wonderful being in tune with your body and knowing how much you are actually bleeding during your period instead of just guessing your flow based on how soaked something gross *tampon* looked.
*photo above is not mine!* I have yet to try other Menstrual Cups like these pictured above. I love my Diva Cup but would be curious to try others. How can I make a change to reusable?
Get rid of your old Tampons and pads. Choose a cup (one that looks comfortable to you) Buy it, open it, admire it. Now we move onto the fold, this is how your cup will fit inside you and catch yo’ flow girl. * Do your thing, then later in the bathroom take it out, empty it and wash out. Pop it back in, and continue your adventures.
*Check out this sweet tutorial on different ways to fold your menstrual cup from The Pistachio Project
*Disclaimer, Sensitive Subject Ahead* Now I have to say this to be completely honest to all the ladies out there who might want to make the switch over to a menstrual cup. If you have had an abortion (either recently or in the past) at first the suction the cup creates while inside your body may freak you out a little when you remove the cup the first couple times. Just know, you are okay. This too shall pass. and using a menstrual cup and becoming more in tune with your body is a wonderful way for your Yoni to heal and move forward past the pain. Now if a Menstrual Cup is all too much, ANOTHER WONDERFUL OPTION IS ....REUSABLE PADS.
My homegirl Maureen from Garden of Eden makes some seriously kickass period pads. I got the big ones (all the way to the right) for after Little Peanut was born and it was a life saver for bleeding after birth. These are easy to wash and very absorbent. I’ve never had a problem with leaking or bleeding through even with the thin panty liner (all the way to the left). Although it is an investment at first, buying reusable pads and a menstrual cup (ones you can use your whole life) will end up costing you about 140.00 instead of the 4,000 disposable pads and tampons would.
Be smart, Show Mother Earth how much you love her, and keep garbage outta the landfills. How could you resist such fun colorful pads? Plus Maureen has so many cute patterns to choose from! And period panties on her site as well, which might be a worthwhile investment for something protective to wear when your sleeping or having a heavier flow than normal. https://www.etsy.com/shop/GardenofEdenReusable

Well, for a female witch anyway...
My cycle is now aligned perfectly with the moon ^_^
That is all
Menstrual Hygiene is something that has been brought to attention in recent times. It is very essential to follow all the hygiene-related practices specifically at the time of menstruation otherwise our body is exposed to skin and internal infections. Many types of research have proven and explained that a single woman generates about 125-150kg of sanitary waste in her entire course of menstruation throughout her life which is non-biodegradable and hazardous to the environment. Ms.Sonal Jain, the co-founder of Boondh, explains that these sanitary napkins consist of plastic layers that take 700-800 years to break down and decompose. This waste treatment is very questionable. Ms. Jain, who formerly worked on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 12 – responsible consumption and production – with World Merit, met Bharti Kannan, an engineer, and a social science student. Bharti had worked on menstrual health before and together they started Boondh for sustainable menstruation. Boondh is a social enterprise that is working on Sustainable Products, Spreading awareness about menstruation, advocacy, the policy as well as programming. The main focus of Boondh is to make women shift from sanitary pads to menstrual cups. Menstrual cups are eco-friendly, safe, and hygienic, unlike those napkins that are carcinogenic. They are reusable and have less carbon footprint compared to the discarded tampons and napkins, and one-time affordable cost. T-Natur aims at spreading awareness about sustainability and promotes sustainable development in all aspects. We salute Boondh for taking up this initiative in spreading awareness about Sustainable Menstruation. This change of Sustainable menstruation should be encouraged globally.Read more at: These social entrepreneurs are making menstrual health affordable and sustainable

Abnormal amounts of estrogen can cause liquid maintenance in the body, which makes the scale demonstrate a higher number. A few ladies can get up to two pounds amid the menstrual period, however luckily the majority of those pounds vanish with the finish of the period. There are 5 ways that monthly cycle plays with pounds. 1. Holding liquid in the body! The female sex hormone estrogen accomplishes the most elevated amount before the finish of the menstrual cycle, just before the beginning of the menstrual period. Abnormal amounts of estrogen can cause liquid maintenance in the body, bringing

Arquetipos y lunas
La Doncella:
Su fase lunar es la luna creciente. Es la semilla que brota, inicio, deseo de vida, época de nuevas posibilidades. Su estación del año es durante la primavera.
La Doncella es la Virgen, “completa en sí misma”, independiente. Es impulsiva, le encanta jugar, se rige por sus ideales y busca la verdad.
Su fase del ciclo menstrual es la pre-ovulación: fase dinámica y de acción. Tiene la capacidad de planificar, de fijar objetivos y de dirigirse hacia ellos.
Su rito de paso es el de la primera menstruación, la llegada de la sangre y el despertar de la fertilidad.
Es la Doncella que vive en nuestro interior, la niña-adolescente que no siempre recibió una bienvenida o iniciación positiva al mundo de la mujer.
Sanando a nuestra Doncella interior e inspirándonos de otras culturas y ritos ancestrales podemos acompañar a las “Doncellas” de hoy en día en su transición de la adolescencia hacia la madurez.
La Madre:
Su fase lunar la luna llena. La semilla florece, da fruto y madura gracias al calor del sol y a los nutrientes de la tierra. Su estación es el verano.
El Arquetipo de la Madre nos remite a la Gran Madre mitológica, a la Madre Tierra, fuente de vida, útero creador, con capacidad de creación y de destrucción.
Su fase del ciclo menstrual es la ovulación: fase expresiva, amorosa y fértil en todos sus aspectos. Es sensual y encuentra el placer en la unión. Sabe cuidar y cuidarse y marcar límites.
Su rito de paso es el parto, el viaje iniciático de la madre que da a luz y el bebé que sale al mundo.
El arquetipo de la Madre no se limita por supuesto a la concepción de hijos biológicos sino que abarca todo el desarrollo de procesos creativos y toda época de exteriorización.
Nos invita a cultivar nuestra Madre interior y a integrar, en nuestro seno, a la Madre Luminosa y a la Madre Oscura pudiendo así aceptar a la madre real, la humana.
La Chamana:
Su fase lunar la luna menguante. Tiempo de recoger la cosecha, de iniciar la poda, de luz decreciente. Su estación es el otoño.
La Chamana conoce su sombra, se guía por su intuición, es libre, guerrera y sanadora.
Su fase del ciclo menstrual es la premenstrual: fase altamente creativa, de conexión con nuestro inconsciente, con nuestra herida y con nuestra verdad. La Chamana sabe sopesar, sabe separar el grano de la paja.
Su rito de paso es la menopausia, pasaje al poder y a la sabiduría. Ancestral mente las mujeres solo eran reconocidas como chamanas después del tránsito de la menopausia.
Nos invita a conocer y desplegar en nosotras a la Mujer Salvaje, enterrada durante siglos y siglos, para acceder a tesoros escondidos.
La Anciana:
Su fase lunar es la luna negra, época de hibernación, de quietud y de renovación. Su estación es el invierno.
La Anciana ha cultivado el don del silencio, la escucha, y el desapego. Sabe que en el vacío y en la muerte está la semilla de un renacimiento. Es sabia y visionaria.
Su fase del ciclo menstrual es la menstruación: fase de introspección, de descanso y de conexión con lo más profundo en nosotras, el lugar en donde las visiones creativas se gestan.
Su rito de paso es la muerte y los tiempos de transición, pérdida y envejecimiento. Con la comprensión cíclica de la vida y la muerte, entendemos que sin desintegración no hay renovación.
