The Menstrual Map
Menstruation, typically a taboo subject in our culture, can be a rich source of information for people about their health and wellbeing. Menstruation is a story in itself -- let’s learn how to listen. What is healthy menstruation? What can the menstrual cycle tell people about their bodies, and how can we interpret that information? Join herbalist Elaine Sheff to take a deeper look at how to read the fertility cycle and how medicinal plants can be used to support reproductive health. The herbs discussed can be used for all phases of a person’s life cycle from menarche through menopause. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to come. This online class is FREE!
