Science Will Never Catch Up To The Magic Of Women.
Our female infradian rhythm (aka menstrual cycle) is a relatively new discovery to science. The truth is, science will never truly catch up to the magic of women.
While it's amazing to now have studies to validate our experience as women, our bodies worked this way long before science caught up and made it "official".
It's important to remember that even though science is starting to figure stuff out, your body and the wonders it holds can never be fully understood - and that's a good thing.
I love having language for the infradian rhythm as a way to hold structure and get a foot into the door of the minds of the analytical women who doubt what they experience and need something to hold on to as they transition from trusting the allopathic model to genuinely leaning on the wisdom and power of their own intuition and body's intelligence. I was there too.
The studies we have now on the infradian rhythm act as a map that's slowly being developed and will continue to evolve and change as our technology advances and gives us new lenses to see ourselves through. But ultimately, the lens is just that - a lens. It's not the truth of who we are but rather an interpretation of it.
My goal in teaching you about cycle syncing is not to give you a rigid structure you must abide by in order to be in the fullness of your womanhood! It's actually just the opposite. It's to offer you a starting point to lean on as you reconnect to what's always been available to you - your intuition.
The intelligence etched into your genetic code, the experiences, and the wisdom of our female ancestors. There's a knowing you already have but have been instructed to forgo. There's an undeniable connectedness to the rhythms and seasons of nature that are much stronger than our attempts to disconnect from it. The way you feel a burst of energy in the spring or the draw to slow down during your bleed are signs of this connection. It's the way your body speaks to your through pain or fatigue to show you how far away you are becoming.
This knowing of how to be in your body is not found through cycle syncing. Cycle syncing is just a way to help us ease into trusting ourselves a little more after generations of being told we're not trustworthy or we're crazy.Familiarize yourself with the map through my course Cycle Sync For Life.
