Clare Dubois and Edveeje Fairchild, directors of Treesisters - the global environmental and feminine leadership charit How to work with your cycle to channel spiritual forces, affirm your expression in the world and achieve a deep sense of belonging Until 21st December 2023, buy one copy of Wise Power and get one for free, to gift to somebody you love. Wild Power: Discover the Magic of Your Menstrual Cycle and Awaken the Feminine Path to Power (Hay House, 2017) However it sits in a continuum. It is made possible by all the ‘power’ work that has gone before - surrendering yourself at menstruation to reconnect and remember who truly are; and the tender cherishing of your emerging self in the inner spring. Wild Power is a book about feminine power - the power of the menstrual cycle. This book reveals the inner architecture of a woman and the path to power that is encoded in her body. This unique force tutors us in the sacred tasks of each phase of our journey, from our first period to menopause, the perils and the pitfalls, as we grow into our authority and eldership as creators and leaders in the world. In this book the authors explore the three maps of the menstrual cycle that guide women through their inner landscape to meet themselves, get to know their own nature, and develop the psychological muscle to channel the creative and spiritual forces within them.

Uma Dinsmore Tuli phD, author of Yoni Shakti: A Woman’s Guide to power and freedom through yoga and tantra With so much at stake, the quest for power may involve overt aggression, but many times it entails the use of more nuanced strategic behaviors: complex assessments of potential opponents, spying, deception, manipulation, formation of alliances, and the building of social networks, to name just a few. What’s more, researchers have developed theories to understand the evolution of those strategic paths to power, and have derived and tested predictions generated by those theories, both in the field and in the laboratory. Understandably, much of that work focuses on behavior per se, but we’ll also be getting glimpses of the hormones, genes, and neural circuitry underlying power. Menstruation is the anchor of your power process. It is both the beginning and end of it. It’s the place where you root deeply into yourself. And surrender is the means by which that anchoring happens. As you let go at menstruation you release tension, repair and refuel(through rest and the activation of the soothing balm of oxytocin), re-connect, remember who are and what you are really about (your Calling or Wild Power). We’ll meet together live each Thursday, where Alexandra and Sjanie will guide you in a process to illuminate the teachings. You’ll have a chance to share your experience from the exercise with others on the course and also be invited to share your experience (if you choose) with Alexandra and Sjanie who will work intimately with your questions / insights / explorations.Western women long for a modern cosmology that inspires us to be our whole selves: passionate, powerful and instinctual.

Sjanie: And I think that’s an important point actually, to not aim at some kind of idealised perfection, that’s when you can go horribly wrong. Any move you make towards yourself, any move you make to come into relationship with your cycle, even in the smallest way it can bring profound gifts and is a very beautiful thing, so you know…my fantasy cycle life is very different to my reality cycle life, and I just keep reminding myself to stay connected to my real cycle life. I didn’t say at the beginning but I’ve got 2 small children, 2 girls, they are growing up now actually, my youngest is 3 and my oldest is 5 and a half, but what I would ideally like in terms of self-care and my cycle, you know if I could respond to my cycle in the way my deep hearts desires asked for, you know my children would be left to fend for themselves quite frankly. It's time to redefine menopause. This pivotal time of life is often mistakenly viewed as a health crisis that is ‘suffered from’ or ‘coped with’, and misinformation and myths around menopause can leave you feeling ignored and misunderstood.
