Connecting to your cycle and your womb are key tools to access your body’s inner wisdom. On this episode of the podcast, I talk to yoga teacher and fellow fertility warrior Viki Lefler about her experiences with cycle & moon tracking and womb healing. We discuss how our bodies often carry the stories, experiences and traumas that were passed on through our mothers and grandmothers - and how we can heal those by paying close attention to what is going on inside us. Viki provides some practical advice on how you can start monitoring your cycle and using it to better understand your inner world and needs. We also discuss how Viki herself deals with the long waiting process.

Top quotes:

“With the moon journaling, I try to connect the phase of my cycle to the phase of the moon. When I start a new cycle, I read what happened during previous cycles. I try to find connection points. I share this with my partner too, so that he understands where I’m at right now (and that he shouldn’t talk to me ;-).” - Viki Lefler

“When I look at my own family line, at the women who’ve lost babies, who’ve lost children, who’ve had traumatic births. Once I started looking inside of me, I saw that I was carrying all these stories with me.” - Françoise Molenaar

“I like to think that our child is already with us and that he is teaching us lessons. I’m taking it [the waiting] as an opportunity to become ready, to welcome this child and to heal whatever I can inside of me.” - Viki Lefler

“I want to become a mother. But waiting only for that is not life.” - Viki Lefler

About Viki Lefler:

Hi, I'm Viki, and we are trying to become parents with my husband. I had always thought this would be super easy, but life offered me something else: A lesson to surrender.

During these past years, while we’ve been trying, I have built a better connection with myself, my femininity, and my sacred creative source; my womb.

I started moon journaling to help me find emotional patterns, organize my thoughts, and allow myself to reflect on my emotions.
