(Disclaimer: This episode is a re-run. It was originally published on September 20, 2022)

Fluctuations in your mood, body image, and food behaviors...call it PMS...or is it something else? Dr. Anita Johnston, author, storyteller and eating psychology pioneer has a lot of wisdom to share about the menstrual cycle.

We don’t learn how to work with our menstrual cycle. If you find yourself bemoaning your body more than standing in awe of it, this episode is for you.

WHAT WE COVER:

  • What is the difference between sacred and shameful secrets?
  • When is the best time of the month to access your creativity and your intuition?
  • A powerful metaphor for understanding your emotions 
  • How rituals and stories can heal your relationship with your menstrual cycle and your body
