I’m embarrassed to admit that I didn’t know shit about my period until my early 40s.

Obviously, I knew that I HAD a monthly menstrual cycle that made wearing white pants inconvenient. And I knew that in the days leading up to my period, I was a carb-craving, emotionally unstable, hyper-sensitive, crampy, bloated raw bundle of nerves.

And of course, I had a basic understanding that my body operated in a 28 day cycle that involved all sorts of hormones that worked to construct, and then deconstruct, my womb for creating, growing and birthing a Life.

It’s NOT that these actions don’t have a time and place…except for maybe the crystal-up-the-hoo hoo part…… and it’s not that Source is judgmental and will withhold your needs because It’s miffed that you only show up when you need something.
