Welcome back to Your Parenting Mojo! Today, we're diving into a topic that many parents may face but rarely talk about openly: navigating menopause while raising young kids. If you've been wondering how to balance parenting with the changes menopause brings, this episode is for you. In our first interview on Menstrual Cycle Awareness, we explored how menstruation impacts our lives. Today, we're thrilled to welcome back our wonderful guests, Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer, for a second interview focusing on menopause. Alexandra Pope, Co-Founder of Red School and Co-Author of Wild Power and Wise Power, is a pioneer in menstruality education and awareness. With over 30 years of experience, Alexandra believes that each stage of the menstrual journey—from the first period to menopause and beyond—holds a unique power. Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer, also Co-Founder of Red School and Co-Author of Wild Power and Wise Power, is a psychotherapist and menstrual cycle educator. She is passionate about helping people understand and honor their natural rhythms, using menstrual cycle awareness as a tool for self-care and empowerment. In this interview, they'll share their insights on embracing menopause as a time of empowerment rather than something to simply endure. They introduce us to their concept of “Wild Power,” a strength that arises from understanding and honoring your body's natural rhythms through every stage of life. Why Menopause Matters in Parenting Many parents have kids a bit later in life, which means we may find ourselves dealing with perimenopause—when our body starts preparing for menopause—right when we're also raising children. This experience can bring challenges, like feeling more tired or dealing with mood changes, but it also offers us new ways to grow and find our inner strength. Alexandra and Sjanie show us how we can be more understanding and open with ourselves and others as we go through this time of change. What You'll Learn in This Episode: What is Menopause? Alexandra and Sjanie explain what menopause and perimenopause are and how these natural changes affect us physically and emotionally. The Wild Power Within: Discover how your unique energy can be a guiding force in both your personal life and in parenting. Tools to Support Yourself: Simple ways to be kinder to yourself, balance rest with activity, and embrace each phase with a sense of discovery. Reconnecting with Yourself: Learn how you can stay grounded and connected to your inner self as you navigate the ups and downs of menopause. Listen in to this powerful conversation that might just change the way you think about parenting—and about yourself.

Heute gibt es den zweiten Teil von Klaras Erfolgsgeschichte im Umgang mit Endometriose. Aus einer ganz persönlichen und somit sehr wertvollen Perspektive erzählt uns Klara – als unser erster Interviewgast überhaupt – wie sie mit Endometriose lebt. Doch es geht nicht nur um die Erkrankung, sondern vor allem um ihren heilvollen Umgang mit der Weisheit des Körpers, des weiblichen Zyklus und der Kraft, die in all diesen nicht immer einfachen Prozessen steckt. Hört unbedingt auch in diesen zweiten und wichtigen Teil rein, um zu erfahren, wie man sich ganzheitlich auf den Weg zur Besserung machen kann und wie es möglich ist, sich (wieder) wohl und gut zu fühlen. Wenn ihr selbst betroffen seid oder jemanden kennt, der Endometriose hat, empfehlen wir den Film „Nicht die Regel“ (https://nicht-die-regel.at/), von dem es am 10.09.2024 eine Vorführung in Voitsberg gibt https://voitsberg.gv.at/de/aktuelles/veranstaltungen.html?pdf=&page_e43=2 Auch die beiden Bücher „Wild Power Discover the Magic of Your Menstrual Cycle and Awaken the Feminine Path to Power” von Alexandra Pope und Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer und „Roter Mond. Von der Kraft des weiblichen Zyklus“ von Miranda Gray können wir empfehlen. Außerdem erwähnen wir das Endometriosezentrum Graz: https://www.eva-info.at/kompetenzzentren/

This episode was...unplanned. :-) A couple of months ago I interviewed Dr. Louise Newson on the topic of menopause. Dr. Newson is a medical doctor and focused very heavily on Hormone Replacement Therapy as a treatment that everyone who menstruates should at least consider, and I knew I wanted to do an episode with someone who doesn't hold that belief as well. I found Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer of The Red School, and really appreciated their book Wise Power. As I usually do before recording an interview I read their other co-authored book Wild Power, and I realized there was a 'missing' episode on the topic of Menstrual Cycle Awareness. We can't really talk about being aware of the changes that are happening to our bodies during menopause if we don't know what has happened to our bodies throughout our menstruating years. When I read Wild Power I felt a deep sense of sadness that I was just discovering this now, as my own years of menstruation wind down - but also a deep sense of hope that I can help Carys develop a much closer relationship with her own body than I had with mine. We'll answer questions like: What phases does my body go through each month? How can I start becoming more aware of these phases through Menstrual Cycle Awareness? How can I align my activities with my energy levels, creativity, and arousal - even in the real world, which wants me to go-go-go all the time? How is my inner critic aligned with my cycle, and how can I use its knowledge to help me? How can I navigate Menstrual Cycle Awareness if I've had a difficult relationship with my periods and with fertility? I'd encourage you to listen to this episode if: You menstruate and want to better understand how menstruation affects your life You're raising a child who will menstruate and want to prepare them to feel 'at home' in their bodies You love someone who menstruates and want to be better attuned to them You're raising a child who will never menstruate, but you want them to appreciate menstruation and know how to effectively support people who menstruate. In other words, everyone will get something out of this episode! ...

Heute geht es in unserer Serie rund um Frauengesundheit um das Thema Endometriose und ganz spezifisch um Klaras Weg zur Heilung. Aus einer ganz persönlichen und somit sehr wertvollen Perspektive erzählt uns Klara – als unser erster Interviewgast überhaupt – wie sie mit Endometriose lebt. Doch es geht nicht nur um die Erkrankung, sondern vor allem um ihren heilvollen Umgang mit der Weisheit des Körpers, des weiblichen Zyklus und der Kraft, die in all diesen nicht immer einfachen Prozessen steckt. Hört rein, um in diesem ersten Teil ihrer Geschichte einen unglaublich hilfreichen Einblick zu bekommen. Nächste Woche geht gibt es dann den zweiten Teil, der noch tiefer in ihren Heilungsprozess eintaucht. Wenn ihr selbst betroffen seid oder jemanden kennt, der Endometriose hat, empfehlen wir den Film „Nicht die Regel“ (https://nicht-die-regel.at/), von dem es am 10.09.2024 eine Vorführung in Voitsberg gibt https://voitsberg.gv.at/de/aktuelles/veranstaltungen.html?pdf=&page_e43=2 Auch die beiden Bücher „Wild Power Discover the Magic of Your Menstrual Cycle and Awaken the Feminine Path to Power” von Alexandra Pope und Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer und „Roter Mond.

Send us a Text Message.Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer and Alexandra Pope are pioneers in the emerging field of menstruality, which my spell check says isn't even a word! Basically they have created a new lexicon, along with a new approach not only to our health and wellbeing, but our creativity and leadership, and our spiritual life – all based on becoming conscious of the power of monthly cycles. They are the co-founders of Red School, and co-authors of Wild Power: discover the magic of the menstrual cycle and awaken the feminine path to power . Their menopause book Wise Power: Discover the liberating power of menopause to awaken authority, purpose and belonging came out in 2022. I tried to interview them then, sent a few emails, didn't hear anything back. And then, they wrote to me – and as you will hear, they did it right at the perfect time. Between Sjanjie and Alexandra they have more than 45 years of experience doing this kind of work, and today they teach around the world, helping women understand that from puberty to perimenopause and beyond, we are engaged in a bio-psycho-social-spiritual process of maturing… A message that is very, very different to what most of us are used to getting. The discussion covers the practical and cyclical nature of menopause, the significance of menstrual cycle awareness, and the power of self-care and setting boundaries. They also address the often-overlooked grief and the mental health challenges associated with menopause, emphasizing the need for community, support, and a broader societal understanding of this pivotal life stage. The episode concludes with a look at the potential of menopause as a time of personal and spiritual awakening, offering practical tips and discussing their upcoming course to help women navigate this profound transition.00:00 Introduction to Perimenopause and Menopause00:20 Challenges in Finding Menopause Support00:42 The Role of MidiHealth01:18 Personal Journey and Podcast Sponsorship04:54 The Impact of 'Wise Power' Book07:49 Menopause as a Transformative Experience09:57 Cycle Awareness and Menopause15:49 Navigating Menopause with Awareness26:16 The Power of Menopause37:11 Acknowledging the Struggles of Menopause38:33 The Role of Modern Medicine39:06 Cultural Crisis and Menopause40:28 The Importance of Community Support42:42 Practical Tips for Navigating Menopause46:56 Embracing the Power of 'No'47:36 Navigating Relationship Changes53:26 The Psychological and Spiritual Journey54:13 Addressing the Topic of Suicide01:01:20 The Intersection of Menopause and Global Awakening01:07:11 Redefining Menopause01:11:13 Course Information and Final ThoughtsThank you to our sponsor, Midi Health.

Are you aware of menstrual cycle awareness (MCA for short)?

What does the menstrual cycle have to teach us - about the nature of ourselves, as well as the importance of living in a cyclic manner?

Imagine a world in which menopause is recognized as a healthy, organic step in one's evolutionary journey stepping - into the vital and powerful role of serving your community and the world?   That's a quote taken from my guest on today's podcast, whose vision she describes as “to place menstrual cycle awareness in the heart of every boardroom, classroom and dinner-table discussion on the planet.”   My guest Alexandra Pope, along with her partner, Sjanie Hugh Wurlitzer have come together to form Red School, which in essence, beautifully brings about awareness of the menstrual cycle and conscious menopause - taught through various mediums via menstruality education.   What Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer have created is TRULY inspiring - which they describe as a “radical new approach to health, creativity, leadership and spiritual life”.   Hosts of The Menstruality Podcast and Authors of Wild Power: Discover the Liberating Power of Menopause to Awaken Authority, Purpose and Belonging, they are also the Programme Creators of the Menstruality Medicine Circle™.   Alexandra shares a wealth of knowledge supporting and educating women on a global scale - from helping mothers nurture their daughters through puberty and the beginning of the menstrual cycle, right through to menopause and beyond.  

Did you know that your menstrual cycle is teaching you how to work with your inner power, ready to become a wise woman at menopause? The wise women founders of Red School, Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer have released their cutting edge book Wise Power: Discover the Liberating Power of Menopause to Awaken Authority, Purpose and Belonging. I'm THRILLED to have had the opportunity to chat with the authors and Menstruality leaders about how we can practice menstrual cycle awareness as a lifestyle that ultimately builds our self-trust, resilience, and capacity for presence, so that when the time comes, we can surrender, die and be reborn through the "mother of all initiations" that is Menopause. What a power conversation this was! Whether you're through Menopause already and want to understand what the hell just happened, you're teetering on the precipice right now, or you're years away, but want to become more readied now - there is much gold in here for you. We traversed enquiries including:The definition of Menopause and why Red School works with the psycho-spiritual-emotional realms of Menstruation and Menopause, beyond just the physical symptoms we may encounter. What Menstrual Cycle Awareness (MCA) is and how working with our menstrual cycle now can build our capacity to navigate Menopause. How we can take permission for ourselves and invoke our inner rebels to practice conscious Menstruation in a world that doesn't support us to honour our menstrual cycles and Menopause experiences.The potent gifts available to us in Menopause, as well as some of the challenges. and much more besides...I know you'll find the medicine you need for the phase of your menstrual journey in this conversation, so do listen, share your favourite insight with us here, and pass on this much needed information to sisters, mothers, daughters, friends and colleagues everywhere. Find all the links, details and transcription in the show notes here >Charlotte xxxThanks so much as ever for supporting me to host Wild Flow Podcast!

When I came across the work of the Red School, with Alexandra and Sjanie, and their brand new book, Wise Power ~ Discover the Liberating Power of Menopause to Awaken Authority, Purpose, and Belonging, I exhaled a sigh of relief.

Alexandra and Sjanie are the co-founders and co-directors of Red School. Red school provides a radical new approach towards women's health, creativity, leadership and spiritual life, accessed through Menstrual Cycle Awareness. For those of you who are sceptical, bear with me here because I felt the same way until I read their first book, ‘Wild Power'. As testimony to Alexandra and Sjanie's teachings, my 16 year old daughter is actually on board with the seasonal approach to her cycle (although not yet embracing the process fully!) and my 10 year old is no longer fearful of starting her period. For those of you who already know - just dive in! When I heard about ‘Wise Power', I was intrigued and extremely excited. And it doesn't disappoint. Alexandra suffered from endometriosis and from her pain, she began work. Together, she and Sjanie have encapsulated the potency and power of what is at work both during menstruation and, most importantly here, Menopause. The work that both these wonderful women do is extraordinary yet somehow the deep spirituality is relatable and accessible, plus the understanding and compassion that they have is profoundly human which actually makes it even more extraordinary. In this episode, we talk about how Menopause is currently portrayed in the world, the fact it has a voice, how naming the experience can make you feel seen and the importance of story telling. There is much to be celebrated about this life phase and much to be learned. We also mention mental health so if you are struggling, please, please get in touch and we can support you and point you in the right direction. You are not alone. “Menopause is this extraordinary awakening moment.” You can find Alexandra & Sjanie on Instagram @red.school & on the website https://www.redschool.net and the must read Wise Power is available now.

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Alexandra Pope.  Alexandra and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer are the co-founders of Red School, authors of the Hay House books Wild Power and the soon to be released Wise Power: Discover the Liberating Power of Menopause to Awaken Authority, Purpose and Belonging. They spent over 10,000 hours researching and refining their radical new approach to health, creativity, leadership and spiritual life. And the best bit? It's rooted in the bloody, wild, radical power of the menstrual cycle and menopause.  Their new book - Wise Power: Discover the Liberating Power of Menopause to Awaken Authority, Purpose and Belonging, is being released on 20th September 2022. In this magical episode, Alexandra and Nicole explore menopause as a powerful initiatory portal for reclaiming power and the potential of our souls, diving into the Wise Woman archetype and how it is an especially potent one for the Witch, as well as how we can reframe the cultural narrative around menopause to rediscover its hidden medicinal gifts.  Whilst this episode is framed around the menopause, it's really one full of gold for any woman to listen to, because it is really all about the power of initiation into soul.     What You'll Learn from this Episode:   The menopause is ultimately an initiation that awakens the power within us; and really, it is a descent into soul. That means it isn't all smooth-sailing because - unless you've done the deep work to connect to your Wise Woman via the power of your cycle, which makes it a smoother ride, like Alexandra had - descents to soul aren't all rosy There becomes a clear “No”, along with an opening to your deeper calling, often, at menopause - where you are being called deeper into your power - into a deeper purpose that is asking you to listen, and it becomes time to trust your body and its wisdom. Often women can experience this the same way via the initiation of the Wise Woman - who can be initiated earlier, via illness like Chronic Fatigue, or some other deeper calling - where we learn deep lessons about listening to our bodies and their deep wisdom.   Menopause can kick us in the ass as a right of passage - it demands from us that we meet oursleves - and the invitation is to allow ourselves to be touched and moved - to not be in victim to our bodies, but to make a deeper choice to make something meaningful from the sensations.  We have to trust that there's something wanting to come through us, and drop out egoic agenda and trust the work of soul It is often seen as a problem in our culture.  It can feel like we have been broken open in this initiation, but if we harness and trust our power there, it is so worth it.  It opens us to incredible magic. Practically, we have to support ourselves through this initiation by tending our nervous systems, our bodies, allowing our rage to express and celebrating ourselves and the magic that is unfolding. Ultimately, it is all a death and rebirth - as who our soul came to express as. That's the real magic of the menopause.   Resources and things that we spoke about:   Pre-order Wise Power  Red School's Website Red School's Instagram : @red.school Lara Briden - Hormone Repair Manual Susan Weed - New Menopausal Years   Invoke your Feminine Mystery   Thank you for listening, we'd love to know what comes alive for you in this week's episode, so please let us know!

Karen speaks with the founders of Red School, Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer, about menstruation as a brilliant design for leadership and deepening our relationship with ourselves.   Resources: https://daringtorest.com/podcast/67

If the days leading up to your period have left you feeling like you were going to either die or murder someone you love, this episode is for you. Been there. I salute you. I. Feel. You. In today's episode, we'll discuss how we can begin to understand and work with our menstrual cycle's cyclical and spiritual nature for improved physical and emotional well-being. A few months ago, I discovered the practice of "Menstrual Cycle Awareness" (MCA) through the work of RedSchool founders Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer. Through this new framework and awareness of my own inner "seasons," I've felt like I can better ride the inevitable waves of life and lessen (and even eliminate) some of my most severe premenstrual symptoms (which have been so severe, I've qualified for a diagnosis of PMDD.) This episode aims to pass on much of what our mothers (and their mothers) didn't tell us about our menstrual cycles and how we can reclaim that power together as part of our unique hero's journey. **To connect with me directly, join the community on Instagram and support the podcast to keep it ad-free, visit www.backfromtheborderline.com ** Below is a summary of topics covered in this episode: ■ How societal frameworks and generational trauma have played a part in how I have perceived menstruation throughout my life■ My experience (and struggle) with hormonal birth control and IUDs seem to contribute to more severe emotional dysregulation■ Exploring the signs and symptoms of PMS and its more severe BFF “PMDD” (Pre-Menstrual Dysphoric Disorder)■ Why do the days leading up to our period fill us with “an intense darkness of the psyche and heightened anxiety” that is asking us to SLOW DOWN■ Exploring the spiritual & psychological history of menstruation■ Understanding the four phases of the menstrual cycle■ Research exploring ancient menstrual rituals & rites within other cultures ■ A breakdown of the practice of Menstrual Cycle Awareness (MCA) and our “inner seasons” (inner winter, inner spring, inner summer, and inner fall/autumn.)■ How I track my cycle and inner seasons using the Flo app (not a sponsor, just an app I enjoy!)■ How I've been using “seed cycling” for hormone balance and better emotion regulation■ The changes I've felt in my life and body since putting f these practices and beliefs to work in my own life consistently Resources mentioned in today's episode: ■ Flo Period Tracking app (I use the free version)■ Wild Power (book that explains MCA and the inner seasons)■ Woman Code by Alisa VItti (book that gave me the idea for seed cycling)■ Blog article by Rising Woman that breaks down the inner seasons one by one See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

I interview Stefanie Adler, a Certified Nutrition Consultant, Women's Hormone + Fertility Expert, and Wellness Coach. Her practice focuses on supporting those with cycling bodies in balancing their hormones, healing their gut's, and all things babymaking. She is immensely passionate about giving women the knowledge and tools they need to thrive in the modern world.

This week on the podcast I am joined by my dear friend Chelsey Breta Orth. Breta and I met in our first yoga teacher training program in Bali back in 2015 and she was one of my very first podcast guests. Since then I have watched her discover her niche and create a business that she loves called Moon Rise Ritual. In this episode, Breta shares her journey of teaching at yoga studios, stepping back to work on her own practices, discovering her passion for moon cycles and syncing to the rhythms of nature and our bodies, and how this has led her to develop a business that helps others connect to their own rhythms and moon cycles, as well as all the business lessons she's learned along the way.  Enjoy!  This episode is brought to you by OfferingTree.

Trenger vi egentlig en egen tilnærming til yoga for kvinner? Er det behov for en mer feminin tilnærming til yogaen? Hva er egentlig yoga for kvinner og feminin yoga? Dette er store spørsmål og jeg skal ikke prøve å besvare dem i sin helhet her. Det jeg kan gjøre er å konstatere noen fakta og dele hvorfor jeg mener det er viktig å ha noe kjennskap til dette. Veldig mye av yogaen som vi kjenner den i dag er laget av menn og for menn. Yogaen er altså i stor grad laget av mennesker uten feminine former, uten en menstruasjonssyklus og uten direkte kjennskap til store overganger i kroppen som skjer ved overgangsalder, graviditet, fødsel og nybakt mamma. Gravidyoga og barselyoga er blitt veldig populært de siste årene og mange forstår viktigheten av å tilpasse yogaen til denne fasen av livet. Hva med å tilpasse yogaen til menstruasjonssyklusen? Eller ta hensyn til din fase i livet når du velger hvilken praksis du skal gjøre? Vi er natur Mennesket har lett for å heve seg over naturen, dette ser vi tydelige tegn på i vår utnyttelse av naturressurser, utarming av jordsmonn, minkende artsmangfold både i dyr- og planteriket og global oppvarming. Det er viktig å erkjenne at vi mennesker er en del av naturen, både individuelt og kollektivt. Det er her, på et individuelt nivå -for kvinner -det å være bevisst sin egen syklus kommer inn. Gjennom bevissthet om egen menstruasjonssyklus kan vi erkjenne at vi er en del av naturen. Syklus-logg Et godt sted å starte er å loggføre egen syklus. Her finnes flere apper som kan brukes, men selv er jeg tilhenger av penn og papir! Dag 1 av syklus er første dag av mensen og om du ikke har blødning kan du logge etter månen å la dag 1 være der månen er svart. Skriv et ord eller to om tilstanden din, loggfør energinivå og ev andre ting du føler er viktig å samle data om. Podcasten “Kant ut” med skiskytterne Tiril Eckhoff og Ingrid Tandrevold har en episode der de snakker om mensen, anbefaler kvinner å bli mer bevisst egen syklus (eller fravær av syklus) og hvordan tilpasse treningen din til syklusen. En annen populær podcast er Femihelse som har en egen episode som heter “Mensen” og her anbefaler de å tracke egen syklus. For en hjelp i å komme i gang kan du skrive ut syklus-loggen vi har laget på nettsiden for episoden: www.anahatayoga.no/yoga-for-kvinner På nettsiden for episoden finner du også en illustrasjon av en av mine personlige favoritter for en yogapause i hverdagen; hvilende fiskestilling. Her får binyrene avlastning og restitusjon, du kan gi slipp på kroppen og forsterke følelsen av hvile ved å vende oppmerksomheten til den spontane pusten. Gi stillingen 5 minutter til hver side -gjerne lengre om du har tid. For å gi de forskjellige fasene en kvinne går gjennom i sin menstruasjonssyklus et dagligdags språk kan man sammenligne dem med årstidene. Jeg har to podcaster å anbefale for mer info om indre sesonger, den ene er for menn: The Great Man Within: A man´s guide to the menstrual cycle og den andre er for kvinner: Wild Power, discover your inner seasons. Boka: Wild Power av Alexandra Pope og Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer er forresten en flott bok om syklusbevissthet.

In the menstrual cycle, we experience currents of expansion and contraction, activity and rest. Yet we've been living in a cultural paradigm built exclusively around expansion and activity (the via positiva). A cultural paradigm that has avoided the via negativa entirely—until now. Now that we have pushed ourselves into a global health crisis, many of us are being forced to stay at home, and whether you're busier now or not, the call to rest and reflect is massive. To foster a deeper connection with our feelings. To ask more difficult questions. To come back home to ourselves. Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer are the cofounders of Red School and co-authors of Wild Power: Discover the Magic of Your Menstrual Cycle and Awaken the Path to Feminine Power. On this episode of Daring to Rest, Alexandra and Sjanie join me to share what called them to this work around menstrual cycle awareness and introduce us to their definition of power as the capacity to be vulnerable and surrender to the unknown. Alexandra and Sjanie discuss the concept of menstruality, reflecting on the consciousness that evolves from menstrual cycle awareness and wakes us up to our true meaning and purpose in the world. We also explore menopause as a journey of expanding consciousness and reflect on how postmenopausal women can continue to be held in cyclical life. Listen in for insight on honoring your cycle in a non-cyclical world and learn how Red School's three inner maps of the menstrual cycle can help us understand the current moment in history.   Key Takeaways How healing herself from endometriosis led Alexandra to her current work Sjanie's experience of feeling life flood back when her menstrual cycle returned How our menstrual cycle connects us to our meaning and purpose How Alexandra & Sjanie define power as the capacity to be vulnerable + surrender to the unknown The concept of menstruality as the consciousness that evolves from menstrual cycle awareness Alexandra & Sjanie's three inner maps of the menstrual cycle Map of two vias (activity vs. rest) Map of four seasons Five chambers of menstruation Our collective avoidance of via negativa leading up to the Coronavirus health crisis The parallels between the current moment in history and the void just before we bleed Alexandra's insight around menopause as a journey of expanding consciousness How women in postmenopause can continue to be held in cyclical life Sjanie's explanation of the 1% shift strategy for honoring our cycle in a non-cyclical world   Connect with Alexandra & Sjanie Red School Wild Power: Discover the Magic of Your Menstrual Cycle and Awaken the Feminine Path to Power by Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer   Resources Jane Catherine Severn Holding the Tension of Opposites by Marion Woodman Daring to Rest Honoring Fear Yoga Nidra Series Daring to Rest Nap Community for Women Daring to Rest: Reclaim Your Power with Yoga Nidra Rest Meditation by Karen Brody

In this truly illuminative and powerful episode, we speak to Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer, authors of Wild Power and founders of Red School, about the importance of reconnecting with our feminine power. The menstrual cycle is a vital and vitalizing system in the female body, and prior to the Abrahamic religions, a woman's menstruating body was viewed as sacred and full of power. But in recent history our understanding of and respect for this process has become limited and distorted. We have been taught to be ashamed on our blood flow and, as a result, few women really know about the physiology of their cycle. Early on in our womanhood we are encouraged to ignore it and “just get on with it” without really tapping into its essence or the power it could offer us if approached with love and understanding. Alexandra and Sjanie talk us through the extraordinary benefits of charting our cycles and how, by doing that, we connect back in with the sacredness of our female bodies and learn to work in symbiosis with our cyclical and powerful selves. Women of all ages will find this episode illuminating, and we would especially encourage anyone with young daughters to listen, because these teachings are truly life-changing.

This week's show is with Alexandra Pope & Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer, co-founders of Red School teaching a radical new approach to women's leadership, creativity and spiritual life based on the power of our menstruality consciousness. I was so excited to have Alexandra and Sjarnie back on the show, this is their second time and their first was one of our favourite episodes and I know went down beautifully with you listeners too. I'm also a huge fan of their book Wild Power - if you haven't read it yet, I can't recommend it enough!   In this episode, we explored the gifts of menopause... what your menopausal symptoms really mean, why it's a spiritual initiation, how menstrual cycle awareness prepares you for it and much more.

This week's show is with Alexandra Pope & Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer, co-founders of Red School teaching a radical new approach to women's leadership, creativity and spiritual life based on the power of our menstruality consciousness. I was so excited to have Alexandra and Sjarnie on this show, I'm a huge fan of their book Wild Power and think the work they're doing in the world is incredibly powerful and so so needed.   So in this show, we explored how women are coded for power, and the journey to realizing the fullness and beauty of that power – your Wild Power – lies in the rhythm and change of your menstrual cycle. We explored how women can learn to love their menstrual cycle - from a practical view point and and also in a deeply spiritual way - and the benefits of doing so, not least that it is the key to understanding yourself, what you came here to do and ultimately accessing your full authority and power as woman. Alexandra and Sjarnie are sterling examples of women in their full power - they were such a delight to interview.  This episode was one of my all time top 3 shows - it really was that good!
