Join me in uprooting the narrative that we are cursed to suffer in our basic biological functions because of Eve’s sin in the garden; untangling snarls from deep within the substrate of our cultural mythos.
Let us re-story our relationship with pain & the womb continuum, & examine the biology of our beliefs.
In addition to helping dispel the horrendous impact of 1000s of years of oppressive cultural & religious mythology, this learning circle will provide accessible & enlightening anatomy & physiology education for preventing, soothing, & transforming pain throughout the womb continuum.
Offering a myriad of actionable, practical & ancestral practices to prevent & address pain, our emphasis will be on re-storying the normalization & necessity of pain during menstruation & pregnancy release. Our exploration will traverse nutrition, neurobiology, the nervous system, psychology & perception of pain. We will illuminate options for improving the function of our endocrine, nervous & circulatory systems to transform our experience of pain in meaningful, systemic, & lasting ways. Examples of pain-coping techniques spanning movement, breath-work, somatics, vocalization, orgasm, meditation, & plant medicine will be given.
Knowledge of the innate power of our fertile, bleeding bodies is a win, not a sin.
Non-members may register a la carte to receive a link to join the circle live & a 2 week limited replay.
Sliding scale a la carte registration is $88-$44
