    The moon and your cycle

     BLEEDING WITH THE NEW MOON

    Bleeding with the moon is sacred.

    As the moon journeys its 28 day cycle, so do you, experiencing oscillations in hormones and energy every single day.

    We become a different woman each day, each moment as we cycle.

    You are profound medicine, experiencing death and rebirth every single month with the tides of the moon.

     

    Traditionally women would sync their cycle to bleed with the new moon.

    The darkest phase of the moon, symbolizing a time for introspection, reflection, setting intentions and planting new seeds, due to your heightened awareness, senses, intuition and psychic abilities.

    Our physical bodies during this time are doing the same as we bleed, it is shedding, releasing, and replenishing to prepare for a new cycle.

     

    To connect to your cycle, and transition into a more 'sacred cycle' below are some tips;

     

    1. Your cycle is sacred, whether you are conscious of it being sacred or not, disconnect from the part of yourself that associates to your cycle not being sacred 

     

    2. Call in some ritual practises and be more present in your day to day ways of being and doing

    3. Look into getting support for healing, womb work, body work and energy work. 

    Heidi offers these locally in Brisbane, bayside in Manly West and The Sunshine Coast 

     

    4. Meditate, contemplate, get quiet with you and your womb, and yoni 

     

    5. Track your cycle, through paper form or via an app, keep a journal and daily over that cycle add 3 points of how you are feeling that day, you may start to see a pattern when you look back and reflect each cycle 

     

    6. Exercise, and move your body for each phase of your cycle 

     

    7. Eat and nourish your body for each phase of your cycle 

     

    8. Drink herbs and botanicals that support the phase of your cycle that you are in 

     

    CYCLE YONIVERSE

  • How to connect your cycle, your femininity, your womb, your yoni….. yourself deeply

    How to connect your cycle, your femininity, your womb, your yoni….. yourself deeply

    Honouring yourself and your sacred cycle. In the West, it seems women, have lost touch with themselves... I treat and meet women everyday that have imbalances like; 

    • Low levels of feelings and sensation in the body
    • Lost connection to self – Heart and Womb
    • Energetic blockages
    • Pelvic pain
    • Hormonal imbalances
    • Post-natal nurturing
    • Pregnancy loss, Miscarriage, or termination
    • Disconnected from pleasure, sexuality, sensuality, joy, low libido
    • Pelvic infections / pain
    • Sexual, emotional trauma or abuse 
    • Digestive issues
    • Anxiety, depression and stress
    • Fertility issues
    • Perimenopause / menopause
    • Menstrual imbalances manifesting as PMS, Pain or irregular bleeding
    • Endometriosis
    • Inflammation
    • Lower back pain
    • IBS

    These are considered 'normal', but I am here to tell you that they are NOT, this is your physical body screaming for you to listen.... and not in a way of booking a doctors appointment and getting another pill, another scan, another surgery, seeing the next specialist after the next, or told its all in your head and there is nothing we can do.

    There are UN-invasive, nurturing, ancient rituals that have been practised for thousands on years in the East, and most are ancient women's medicine.

  • Being in flow with the moon and her cycles

    Being in flow with the moon and her cycles

     

    Tuning into the flows of your cycle and the moon’s cycle is a way to naturally flow with the seasons of you, the ebbs and flows of life…….. and the moon herself.

    We are divine mirrors of the moon, a microcosm of the macrocosim…

    As above, so below.

    So within, so without.

    Innerstanding and living in alignment with the moon’s energy and phases, we sync our selves deeper into our own energy, cycles, and our own phases. Feeling intuitively in to ourself, harnessing our power, paying attention and feeling more peace.

    NEW MOON

    Retreat & rest, cleanse, releasing, new intentions & affirmations, self-care, self-love, awareness & intuition heightened

    Traditionally where one would sync their cycle to…. And its no surprise. The moon when new, is also called dark moon, she is at her darkest phase.

    The new moon energy is new beginnings, releasing the old, and when our bleed is present, this is exactly what our physical body is doing.

    Support your being, body and soul during this phase with rest, reflections, and setting new intentions

  • Navigating anxiety, overwhelm and intrusive thoughts

    Navigating anxiety, overwhelm and intrusive thoughts

    Its something you can hardly describe those that get it, just GET IT, those that don’t, think you are crazy…. Its sad, and what makes it even more challenging is getting caught in a spiral thought, that is an overwhelming amount of information coming through you that isn’t pleasant.

    Anxiety, overwhelm, depression, and intrusive thoughts in my own world, are symptoms of my spirit leading me into a new direction…. Can you open up more deeply and feel into yourself where you aren’t in alignment?

    Intrusive thoughts come to everyone, no matter how much yoga one does, how many hours of meditation, or how many affirmations you read in your head, we simply cannot always be positive, because we are humans. We change ourselves, our relationships, where we live, what we do, how we do it, our beliefs, our values, our lifestyle, we really are complex, we change every moment, which can sometimes have its challenges with embodying what you are becoming and shedding the old versions of you.

    Overwhelm comes, even when there is nothing overwhelming going on…. Or it is so subtle, and we aren’t truly connected to our self to even feel into this overwhelm and its root cause.

    It can be a lack of awareness to our needs, our disconnection to feeling and expressing our truth, and living that authentically, our dysregulated nervous systems, our lack of community, our expectations from society, family, friends, the pressure from a job that we really don’t give a fuck about, and truth is it doesn’t really give a fuck about you back…….

    Anxiety, a modern word that I didn’t even know existed until only 10 years ago, or only started hearing it being thrown around every single day by someone I was surrounded by. A subtle nervousness, worry and stress that lives inside of us, almost always due to how we live in this western world…. It can almost be awakened just by looking at your phone and taking a sip of coffee.

    My experiences of anxiety, overwhelm and intrusive thoughts have been a life long journey, realising that i have been living so unconsciously, even when I thought what I was doing was good for me.

    An awakening like no other, that led to another awakening, and another, followed by yet another.

    A re-remembering, a spiral of forgetting, remembering, forgetting and remembering.

    It starts with looking after your 3 treasures, the body, mind, and soul, this can look different to everyone.

    Ask yourself, in a journal how does this look for you and write it down…… allow whatever comes to mind first be your guide.

    If you get stuck, here are some navigators to get you started…

    Nourishing your mind;

    • If you haven’t read in some time, start with 10 minutes in the morning and 10 minutes at night
    • Start practising affirmations, using affirmation cards
    • Journal, start journalling in the morning and evening
    • Meditate, if you are beginner start with a guided body scan meditation

    Nourishing your body

    • Move your body, if you struggle spread 3X10 minute walks out throughout the day
    • Chi gong, tai chi, yoga, strength training, mobility, deep stretching
    • Body work and massage treatment
    • Listen to your body and what it needs or wants
    • Eat organic, clean produce, cook at home with no seed oils – start honouring your temple and reading labels
    • Drink 2-4L of clean filtered water

    Nourishing your soul;

    • Grounding, take yourself to the ocean or nature and ground yourself
    • Breathwork
    • Live happy, slow and consciously

    If you are currently experiencing this, I would suggest to lean into this feeling, put a guided meditation on, and focus on your breath, this sensation, this feeling is coming up for a reason to be felt, it could very well be your spirit rocking your head to push you into a new direction, don’t fight it, get off your phone and melt yourself into this feeling, until it dissolves, and remember, you aren’t this feeling, it is only temporary, and you have the power to move through this.

    Remind yourself now that ‘this too shall pass’.
