mission

Empowering and inspiring menstruators to live in choice, connection and reciprocity

In a world that shames, erases and doesn’t have time for the menstruating body~

~Moon CYcle Sanctuary seeks to:

Give language where there was shame/avoidance

Give knowledge and structure where there was confusion

Give embodiment where there was disconnection

Give reverence where there was dismissal

Give self-attunement where there was self-war

Give steps forward where there was collapse

Give community where there was isolation

Give rest where there was pushing

Give heart where there were rules

Give aliveness where there was numbness

Give kindness where there was hurt 

Thank you for being here

Approach

  • Close-up view of a crescent moon in the darkness of space with illuminated lunar surface showing craters.

    Conscious Awareness

    Your body, heart, mind, spirit, relationships and more are constantly being impacted and shaped by the world within and around you.

    In our work together you will develop an understanding and awareness not only of how the science of your cycle impacts the many parts of yourself but also how society’s views of the cycling body show up in your rhythms everyday.

    With this newfound awareness, you have the choice to take or leave what works for you in each, fluid moment of your being.

    The question is: how will you use it?

    Embodiment

    A life lived consciously can still exist only in the mind.

    And that is no life.

    Awareness still asks us: do you have the courage to inhabit this body? These feelings. This moment.

    Joy, rage, fear, hope, boredom, confusion, peace. Presence.

    These are the baselines of being, of intimacy, vulnerability, health, presence, connection, creativity.

    In working together you will be invited to explore your cycle not only through your mind’s logical understanding, but also through your body, your creativity, your movement, your deep unconscious and metaphorical spirit.

    This will help you connect with and trust your own cyclical intuition, without needing to apply logic or even words to know how to move forward in alignment with your most authentic self.

    At the same time, you will be continuously invited to return to the world around you, in this moment.

    Together, this creates a powerful combination of grounded embodiment of your most authentic self that remains present and connected to the reality of the world unfolding around you.

    Community

    All life is relational.

    And we are relational beings.

    We can be conscious and embodied, but if these things do not exist in a container that can witness us, hold us, and relate back to us, a fundamental piece of the human experience is lost.

    This relational field extends beyond human relationships. It extends outward into the natural world, but also inward to the many parts and pieces of ourselves.

    In our work together you will not only learn to experience yourself and your cycle within a menstruating community- from those holding you here and now to ancestors and the collective cycling body, but also to go within and learn to relate to the many parts that make you.

    In this way, you will learn to see everything, from the inside out, as a relationship. One you can choose to cultivate and connect with, change, or leave behind, with awareness, nuance and grounded from your inner voice.

    This will ultimately give you the power to curate your most aligned life alongside others doing the same ~ and the feeling in the deepest cells of your being that you belong to - and are an essential part of - this world and this life.

    Cycles

    Cycles, seasons, change.

    The cycles of your body are so deeply powerful because they reflect the nature and cycle of life itself.

    Rising and falling, ebbing and flowing, winning and loosing, life and death.

    These are the realities of our time here.

    In our work together you will learn to tap into this ancient depth of wisdom and power, to look around you no matter the phase of your cycle you are in, and love it deeply for what it is.

    And also, to let it flow away and end when its time comes. Knowing you are the one witnessing each change, not the phase that has come and gone.

    Each moment in your cycle and the greater cycles of life is an opportunity to learn, to connect, to open, to give and receive, to rest, to play.

    Together we will bring the magic of embracing an ever flowing, ever-evolving cyclical life back into your being.

    Spiraling ever deeper, one cycle at a time.
