In this series, I help women "learn to read the language of their bodies." You'll build an intellectual understanding of their hormonal cycles by learning anatomy and physiology and how to observe, chart, and interpret your ovulatory menstrual cycles. This practice has many applications. Primarily, it is used as a way to naturally avoid pregnancy, optimize conception, or recognize and fix hormonal imbalances. If after the class you feel like you won't be able to keep up with the practice of charting, you will still take away the foundations of body literacy that will empower you to make more informed decisions about your body and be better able to advocate for yourself.

This series will cover the foundations of anatomy & cycle physiology and how to use a menstrual cycle mapping practice to support you throughout all life stages: 

​

• Regulating hormones and overall health promotion: recognize patterns of health and imbalance in your body that may be causing issues like PCOS, fibroids, endometriosis, migraines, irregular periods and enable treating imbalances at the root.

• A natural method of birth control: clearly recognize your body's fertile/non-fertile days of your cycle and apply rules to avoid pregnancy naturally, working with your body's natural hormonal cycles, instead of intervening with endocrine disruptors.

• Transitioning off of hormonal birth control: supporting the return of your natural menstrual and hormonal cycles and addressing any imbalances that may have been obscured by hormone medication.

• Optimizing conception: clearly recognize your body's fertile/non-fertile days of your cycle, secondary signs of fertility, and how to optimize your body and timing of conception.

• Postpartum transitioning from breastfeeding (lactational amenorrhea) to your returning cycles.

• Transitioning into Peri/Menopause: ease symptoms and support a graceful transition into menopause by tracking the changes in your hormone levels reflected in your basal temps, cervical fluid, and ovulation patterns.

• Puberty & Menarche: for parents and caregivers wanting to educate and support their teens, and young women wanting to educate themselves. Learn a practice that will support a lifetime of periods and hormonal health.

The complete class series includes:

• A free 200-page spiral-bound Journal & Cycle Mapping Guide with all of the class material in full-color, blank charts for mapping your cycles, embodiment practices including meditation and qigong exercises, and blank pages for journaling your experience and note-taking during class. 

• A Tempdrop wearable thermometer to make tracking your daily basal temperatures as effortless as possible ($150 off of the class price if you choose not to use one - although it's totally worth it!) 

• Three x 1:1 chart review and coaching sessions and ongoing text support. We will go over your next three cycle-charts since you've started learning the practice from me. 

• Access to 4 x weekly 1.5 hour Zoom class meetings and recorded videos so that you can refer back to class video material. Even if you are only able to make part of the series during the scheduled times, you can sign up to go at your own pace, getting access to the recorded sessions along with everything else!
