Menstrual Cycle Mastery

Are you trying to control your menstrual cycle but getting stuck in fear-pain loops?
Today, Lisa catches up with Menstrual Coach Academy graduate Stepahny Abicha. She is a recent graduate of the programme. Stephany was drawn to this work and menstrual cycle healing because of her experience with chronic pain and endometriosis.
In the programme, Stephany learned how to regulate fear of pain and she learned how to create more peace in her body during her menstrual cycle.
Join us for this conversation as you go about your day!
We chatted about:
- Stephany's journey with period and endometriosis
- Medicalising the menstrual cycle
- Including our emotions in our menstrual healing
- Using our intuition to bring healing to our cycle
- Stephany's journey with intuitive coaching and the Menstrual Coach Academy
- How to self-coach through fear and anticipation of pain
- Hypervigilance and trying to control the menstrual cycle

Loving Being Ok With The Shitty Parts Of Ourselves

In this episode I chat about the power of Shadow Work when it comes to menstrual cycle healing. We all have shadow parts to ourselves and learning to bring them to the light and integrate them can be very healing for the nervous system.

I chat about:

- What shadow work means and how to integrate it safely into your healing journey
- Shadow work in relationships
- Shadow work for your menstrual cycle
- What happens in the luteal phase when we don't like ourselves
- How to support ourselves through shame and fear
- Thinking about this through the lens of the menstrual cycle seasons, PMDD, and nervous system dysregulation
