Living Hormoniously: Understanding The Phases Of the Menstrual Cycle To Reach Our Fullest Potential

A two x two hour workshop to change the narrative for women around the effects and impacts of the menstrual cycle, learning how to work with, instead of against, the extraordinary movement of the hormonal system.

Hosted by Yoga Therapist Lissie Turner and Clinical Nutritionist Tahlia Mynott. 

In each of the phases of our menstrual cycle (of which there are 4!), lurks individual potentials - different atmospheres - that if properly understood and moved in harmony with, can be of great benefit to the success of a woman's life. At the heart of many a woman's distress is the feeling that their emotions and energy levels are pulling them in one direction and their minds and expectations are pulling them in another. This is wasted effort!

This workshop is not just about learning how to cope with the constant shifts and changes within our own personalities, born from the changes in our cycles, this is about embracing, riding those changes, so at all moments you are in the fullness of your dance as a woman. No contradiction. No confusion.

For three years Tahlia Mynott and Lissie Turner have been offering workshops for all phases of the hormonal journey - from puberty to peri-menopause - and at the heart of them all, is this workshop - an indepth guide, day by day, week by week to the different strengths that exist in the ebbs and flows of the hormonal systems.

This workshop is being run face-to-face as well as online, so for those not in the Byron Shire area, the avenue is still there for you to join us, no matter where you are around the globe. The day consists of yoga, yoga therapy - including breathing techniques, body movement, visualisation practices and approaches to common pathologies - nutrition, moonmapping, journaling and so much more. Looking at the cycle from the body level: anatomical and physiological processes, through the emotional and even to the subtle through the lens of spirituality - what is on offer to be a woman in this lifetime from a spiritual perspective?

Join us for this gorgeous one-day day course that looks at what foods when, how best to move our bodies during which phases, the role of the breath in assisting equanimity of mood and sensation, understanding cycle for fertility awareness (to fall, or not to fall, pregnant), when we are at our most creative, most abundant and most reclusive, when it’s time to talk and when it’s time to reflect. As women, one of the hardest questions that we face on a monthly basis is - what is me and what are my hormones?
