Feminine Hygiene

The various disposable feminine hygiene products currently on the market are made of materials that aren’t healthy for a woman’s body. Their purpose is easy usage in modern times, without taking into consideration the short-term and long-term damage to the body, and they also distance and hide a woman’s cyclic lunar blood from her (menstruation).

 

Menstruation is inherently a blessing.  The choice of reusable pads enables contact with our lunar blood, awareness of the nature of the blood, its frequency and flow, which creates an intimate experience between us and our blood.

 

Today, more and more gynecologists and holistic healers recommend avoiding the use of disposable pads and tampons. Contemporary research supports this recommendation, indicating that menstrual blood also drains toxins from the blood system, so it really is advisable to let it flow out from the body and be released.

 

The recommendation is to use disposable/reusable products that don’t contain chemicals, perfume or other additives that aren’t natural.

 

The toxic, non-biodegradable materials in most disposable products, and the resulting pollution caused by the factories that produce them, generate enormous environmental damage.

 

Thus, transitioning to feminine hygiene products made from re-usable cotton afford the healthiest solution for you, while supporting ecological balance.

(I myself warmly recommend these reusable pads. It is also possible to use disposable, bio-degradable pads without chemicals).

Many women report that after using reusable pads for a time, they start to notice the sensation rising in them just before the blood starts to flow and can go to the toilet (or the earth**) and allow the blood to leave the body in a way that is conscious and regulatory.

 

The transition to reusable pads affects the experience of menstruation on a physical and a mental plane.

It enables a good, balanced and healthy experience during this special time of the month.

 Cotton pads by Minami - Moon Time

Giving blood to the earth was a traditional custom of women all over the world during times when feminine bleeding was considered sacred and blessed, not something a woman was expected to hide and ignore.

Today, some of these ancient traditions are being renewed and we have the privilege of remembering and connecting to the possibility of making space for our bleeding time, allowing ourselves to rest and listen to this cycle’s deep voice:

To allow the blood its required flow, water the garden with it, keep the blood in a bowl and paint with it, or simply allow it to flow out into the earth.

Even if you don’t connect with the blood-earth bond, you can connect with its flow and the nature of the blood through the sensation rising in you before the blood flows out and when you wash the reusable pads.

You can purchase reusable pads from me at my clinic.
