In this week's episode we're talking about sacred menstruation and period rituals with Melissa Sanger.
Melissa is a UK-based Womb Witch and Feminine Empowerment Artist. She guides worldwide sisters with healing and connecting to their womb-space, re-invoking the cyclical wisdom of the Menstrual Cycle, liberating female sexuality and initiating an ancient feminine body literacy.
We connected from her current home in Mexico so at times the sound quality may be a bit poor, but all the juicy goodness is still easy to understand and take in ... we promise! In this episode Melissa speaks about reclaiming the word 'witch', the moon and our cycles, what's REALLY in your period blood, cycle tracking and rituals for when you bleed.
