About the event
We live in rhythms: the moon as our celestial timekeeper, wanes and waxes, as our bodies too, move through energetic cycles of rest and release, creativity and vitality, inner wisdom and reflection.
With astroherbalist Destene Kinser as our guide, we will learn how to nurture our well-being during each phase of our menstrual cycle using traditional Chinese medicine principles. Participants will gain practical skills in creating herbal teas tailored to support each of our body's unique, individual needs, aligning to the four phases of the moon, four seasons of the earth, and four phases of the menstrual cycle.
Through herbal tea ceremony, mindfulness, and storytelling, we will collectively:
Cultivate a deeper awareness of the connection between the moon and the menstrual cycle, enabling greater alignment of our self-care practices.
Learn how to care for our bodies during each phase of the menstrual cycle using exercise, herbs, and self-care practices.
