Once upon a time women’s cycles were revered, celebrated and ritualized

however in more recent times menstruation has been reduced to an

inconvenient, unhygienic and messy event that most of us would be happy to get

rid of. However, is this attitude detrimental to our hormonal health and the way

we view our body?

This week, The Wellness Women delve into the world of the sacred feminine

practices traditionally used by women to honour their menstrual cycles and how

best to use these in our modern world to help create balance and harmony.

Dr Ashleigh and Dr Andrea also take you through history to understand why

we’ve lost that connection with our body and explore some of the bizarre

attitudes different cultures subjected women to during their periods.
