How To Create Your Moon Lodge, At Home

I read that in some ancient cultures women got to retreat into a Moon Lodge, Menstrual Hut or Red Tent during menstruation. It was a sacred place for women to renew, recharge, connect with one another and receive spiritual guidance.Foods were prepared and delivered to the moon lodge. Women were completely discharged from their worldly duties and responsibilities so they could turn their attentions inward and care for themselves.I have been longing for such a place during my menstruation – time…See More

Tell a Friend Why Processing Anger is So Important in Healing PMS/PMDD

I admit that it took me a very long time to uncover, understand and process the anger I’d held onto since childhood. Raised by a tiger mother, I was not encouraged, even allowed, to express the slightest hint of anger growing up. I learned to repress it and push it deep down into my psyche, and my body.I first discovered the powerful energy of anger within me when I had my initial …See More

Super Moon: How to Harness Your Creative Power

The moon is full again. And tonight’s moon is special. Because it’s 14% bigger and 30% brighter than other full moons this year, it’s called a “super moon.” I wonder if you’ve felt its powerful effect on your body and your mind? I surely have.In the past few days leading to the full moon, I’ve been feeling tension within my body and restlessness in my mind. I wanted to shout out loud, throw punches at a heavy bag (the kind boxers use), run like a wild horse – anything to release this intensely…See More

Simple Uterus Exercise to Relief Period Pain

The uterus is a muscle about the size of a grapefruit. Women tend to internalize stress in the uterus – when we enter the paramentstrum (premenstrual phase and menstruation), our hormone levels decrease to release the uterine lining, our immune system becomes more compromised, and therefore we become more fatigued.When women do not honor this change in our bodies and keep moving forward at the same pace as when our hormones were rising post-menstruation, the body constricts to force itself to…See More

How Happy Are You?

When we feel sad, depressed or unhappy, we often think that we’re the only one, and we’re alone. And we think that if we had more money, if were rich and famous, all our troubles would just go away. We'd be together and happy all the time. But money and being rich and famous do not make us immune from the stresses and emotional struggles of life.…See More
