When Your Body Becomes Your Spiritual Teacher

What if the very thing you've been taught to hide, medicate, and push through is actually your greatest source of wisdom? For most of us, menstruation has been framed as an inconvenience at best, a curse at worst. We've learned to power through cramps with painkillers, maintain consistent productivity regardless of how we feel, and apologize when our "hormones" make us "emotional." But here's the radical truth: your menstrual cycle isn't a problem to be solved. It's a sophisticated guidance system, a monthly invitation to access profound power that our culture has systematically ignored and suppressed. This isn't just about tracking your period. It's about recognizing that within your body exists an intelligence far older and wiser than any productivity app or self-help program. When you begin to pay attention-really pay attention-to the shifting energies throughout your month, you discover something extraordinary: you're not the same person on day seven as you are on day twenty-one. And that's not a flaw. That's your superpower.
