25.01.2022 And finally, our lucky 13th #firstmooncircles facilitator! Karen Riley is an Integrative Bodywork Practitioner, a sacred women’s circles holder and an end of life doula at her clinic Heart Centred Natural Therapies in Sydney’s inner west. After working extensively with women to support their fertility she wants to empower girls at the start of their menstrual journey so they can reclaim the wonder and empowerment of stepping into womenhood. Amazing. I’m thrilled to welcome you Karen to our First Moon sisterhood, and to see you stepping into this new offering for your beautiful clinic

25.01.2022 A visual representation of me trying to integrate motherhood with my own sovereign woman identity, needs, desires, dreams, goals and expression... I received this incredibly beautiful, made-for-me jumpsuit from @z.thelabel and feeling really good in myself, I asked my hubs to take a quick snap of me. What you see here is the final pic taken after several minutes of being totally gatecrashed by my older girls. I had to persist, yet yield, soften and nourish my kids first, bef...ore I could get what I wanted. Sound familiar??? Learning how to hold loving boundaries to ring fence your energy and right to meet your own needs, plus how to integrate sacred self-care that nourishes you, the mother, amidst the intensity and fullness of juggling it all, is what I hold space for women to create in my 1:1 Coaching. I call it Magick Mama / Sovereign Woman. Because you are each of these archetypes. You are a beautiful mother, a giver, a lover, a nurturer. You’ve put your whole body, heart, soul and energy into raising your family - and now you’re realising you’ve lost sight of what you need. What you want. Who you even are. At the same time - beneath the mothering - lies a Sovereign Woman just waiting to be given half a chance and permission to step out from the shadows. Your inner Sovereign Woman has dreams, goals, high hopes, and wants to be heard, felt and expressed. Except you don’t really know who she is - you haven’t really met. She is the part of you who was always there, but has evolved as you went through the Motherhood portal. She is you. Both are you. The challenge is how to integrate these two elements of you. My coaching honours the duality within you, holds space for both aspects to be heard and allowed to co-exist with ease, flow, and permission, enabling you to embody your Magick Mama and your Sovereign Woman in glorious harmony. I have space for 1 more client this month - if you’re feeling so ready to honour your wholeness and step into your power, let’s chat my love!

Highly practical, absorben...t, no nasties AND good for the environment. Winning!! You can get your hands (and your daughters and all the menstruators in you life) on a fantastic 20% off all JuJu products when you purchase from their site using the code FIRSTMOON https://www.juju.com.au/ Happy bleeding! #firstmoon #menarche #empoweringgirls #empoweringmothers #maidens #wombhealing #intuition #divinefeminine #goddess #youthmentor #periodeducation #periodpower #menstrualhealth #hormonehealth #teengirls #mumsofgirls #selfcare #cycleselfcare #sacredselfcare #cyclecoach #firstmooncircles

23.01.2022 Hello my name is Charlotte Join me and Deaf Children Australia in celebrating Australia's sign language, Auslan, to raise awareness about deaf language and culture during National Week of Deaf People, 19-25 September’ #dcamynameis #deafchildrenaustralia I’ve never learnt any Auslan before and really, as a coach and mentor I think it’s important to have an awareness of the first language used by 30,000 Australians! So after watching my friend Sarah Kindful Body & Mind have ...a go, here is my first attempt. Not too shabby I hope. Now, your turn!

22.01.2022 Can we collectively put a higher value on rest for 2021? We are of no service to ourselves or anyone else with an empty cup. - @magic_of_i I couldn’t agree with this sentiment anymore. It’s like 2020 has us held on toddler reigns and keeps yanking us in until we learn not to keep bolting off, instead to go slowly, tread mindfully, to be gentle to ourselves, each other and the earth. Today it’s full moon in Cancer, a truly perfect opportunity at the close of the year for a... big juicy release ritual. A time to let go of all that has been this year, to honour, acknowledge and feel the incredible depths of change, experience and emotion this year has thrown at us. Doing this clears some emotional space for us to even think about a new year, and all that might unfold. Your invitation for today and tomorrow’s New Years Eve is to take some time to reflect, as you might usually do at this time. Take it a step further by writing out what you’re intending to: leave behind in 2020: ways of being, beliefs, experiences, people etc old ways of doing things that haven’t worked for you feelings that have pursued you across the year that you’re ready to face and acknowledge and leave behind. Once written down, burn your paper and declare I release you, I am done, I am free. Leave the new year visioning, intentions, or choosing a word for 2021 until you’ve properly cleared and released 2020, otherwise what you’re holding onto will follow you. Full Moon blessings, beauties, enjoy your New Year, and savour some rest as much as you can. I will be letting go of trying to busy myself instead of surrendering to the present moment, as I have truly, truly enjoyed resting and just stopping for the last week, which I didn’t expect to enjoy as much. Rest is best! (And I will be making REST a hallmark of my schedule and lifestyle in 2021, it’s the Achilles heel of burnout). More on my 2021 intentions later...

21.01.2022 Just love this snap by #FirstMoonCircle facilitator @nicoledargie of her study notes for our opening circle last night

19.01.2022 In a guided journey to sit with my future post-menopausal self I met my inner Crone. She was wearing the same outfit I am today, with loose hair long, but greyed, wired, dishevelled as it always is, with a warm, comforting smile and twinkle in her eye. She held my hands and told me all is well. That despite my missing cycle for so long, all will settle and return when the time is right. That there’s no need to worry about where my cycle is, or to wish it back, or to worry ab...out whether my bleeds will be heavy, painful and arriving with migraines each month as they used to once I got off the Pill. She told me that when my blood does come, to savour it, to love it and honour it. To save it and pour it on the earth, to feed the plants and trees with its magickal medicinal properties. To look and notice and give thanks for my blood and the intuitive dreaming and visioning powers possible when we bleed. To honour my periods as a cherished slow time, to counteract the productivity and creativity of ovulation. I realised that I’ve been wanting my period to come back for some months, and that actually, I’ll have another 10-15 years of my cycle once it does come back before menopause. There’s no rush. All in it’s good time. Many of us hate our blood and periods with a passion and feel such relief when it’s missing. This has very much been me. It’s curious that now I wish it was here. I’m so looking forward to observing how my energy, superpowers, creativity, capacity to hold space for others and myself will change across the cycle, I look forward to connecting with myself and this spiritual practice deeply. But I remember it’s still very much possible to do this without a period. Daily checkins, noticing how I’m feeling in my four bodies (physical, mental, spiritual and emotional) IS the practice of cycle awareness. I’m not tracking blood- I’m tracking the moon - but still noting what’s true for me each day. And that’s a powerful practice right there. If you’re feeling the pull to explore your menstrual and/or moon cycle and how you can flow with it, I’ve got limited 1:1 coaching spaces in Jan. Gift yourself what you really want and reserve your spot now

19.01.2022 Sat here at the beginning of our break period in the #FirstMoonCircles facilitator training and integrating all the reasons why my coaching, circles, trainings and books focus totally around menstrual cycle awareness as the to unlocking personal sovereignty, freedom, empowerment, wellbeing, healing and pleasure... Understanding our cycles, whether regular or irregular can help you practice meaningful, timely, actually supportive self-care. Know your needs at any point, an...d how to nurture them. Align your work, parenting, social life, relationship, and all the other ways you show up in life to your cycle for maximum ease, flow, fun, productivity, impact and health. Understand what the hell is going on in your body across the cycle, especially for girls, post-partum + at peri-menopause when hormones are all over the place. MCA using the moon can ground you at a time when you can feel lost. Learn to track and honour wherever you’re at. Understand why mothering feels so much easier at some points - and make a plan to support yourself when it all feels too hard, too overwhelming, and too much like you’re hanging out for wine after the kids are finally in bed. MCA helps you flourish as a mother, by honouring the truth of your experience NOT shaming you into being a Stepford Mom. Learn how to teach this incredible wisdom to your kids, and help your daughter make sense of and speak up about her wild hormones. Role model self-care and openness, compare cycle charts! MCA is totally a mother-daughter bonding tool. Uncover what’s really going on with your health: post natal depletion, chronic stress, gut health, immune support, headaches, depression, pain and heavy flows all are affected by hormone health. Paint a picture of your cycle to take to your Dr, so you can heal the root cause. Reconnect with your womb, heal her pain, your red thread of ancestral wounds, practice loving and accepting your whole self: your creatrix, ancient, wild, sexual, sensual, mother, maiden and crone self through the womb portal. Wow-how’s that for a start? This is why all I do centres around menstrual / moon cycle awareness, and supports you to return to wholeness

18.01.2022 I’ve evolved! Beauties, my 1:1 coaching has caught up with my passion + my Cycle Coach training (which I’m half way through with the amazzzing Claire Baker) Introducing my new 1:1 cycle coaching. Working with me 1:1 gives you deep connection to your feminine power, your purpose, and unlocks your inner magick. We work on enriching your self-care, strengthening healthy boundaries that nourish you, and you receive a framework that helps you to live in flow and devotion to your...Continue reading

17.01.2022 I’m holding sacred circle soon - you’re invited to join us for soulful sisterhood, spiritual reflection, and sacred self-care...

17.01.2022 In the #FirstMoonCircles facilitator training we’be just finished Lesson 1 The importance of First Moon Circles as a rite of passage celebration. This lesson dived into: What a rite of passage is, How menarche is and isn’t celebrated around the world and the impacts of not initiating girls through the menarche rite of passage... Where the pervasive cultural menstrual shame came from and Herstory (the heart-wrenching story of the Feminine experience over time, rather than History (His Story) which focuses on the white male experience) How First Moon Circles are honouring menarche as much as education girls AND their parents on menstrual cycle awareness - and all the amazing outcomes and feedback I’ve got from participants, and I shared a conversation I had with the incredible powerhouse @janehardwickecollings who shared gold nugget after nugget for an hour - the FMC facilitators were completely transfixed, blown away and potently activated by her words. Huge huge thank you to you Jane These words of Jane summarise in a nutshell basically WHY honouring our girls menarche is so important. They only get one first period, and how well they are supported, how positively they are held, loved and celebrated, and how prepared they feel impacts THE. REST. OF. THEIR. LIFE. The way they feel about their body and if they trust it, If they feel able to speak up about their body, health, needs and seek help when needed, or instead learn to go silent and keep things to themselves, If they learn to give away their power, which leads to medicalising their lives, making risky decisions and poorer choices around intimacy, how they feel about birthing their own children, and their self-esteem, self-worth, ability to love themselves. THE LIST GOES ON. How we do or fail to support our maidens into their menarche has impacts on all aspects of their health, wellbeing, potential, equality, politics, economy, relationships, the environment and climate change... So if you’re deciding whether or not to ask me or one of our facilitators to hold a First Moon Circle for your daughter and her mates - please reach out. It’ll change her life

16.01.2022 A glorious morning foraging nature’s treasures to make the girls a spring flower crown. After making my own this week in circle with @the_untamed_human the girls were captivated so here we are. I adorned mine with extra lavender, blue flowering rosemary and calendulas from our garden. We clearly smell divine because the are buzzing merrily around us. Happy spring and belated Ostara to you #natureplay #gratitude #bliss #florals #flowercrowns #springtime #blooms #maidens #mother #motherdaughterbonding #medicinalplants #grounding #joy #familyfun #motherhood #motherearth

16.01.2022 The thought of ageing scares the hell out of a lot of women. From fears of experiencing a terrible menopause, and losing youthful looks, vitality, fertility, and relevance; ageing and evolving into our Crone phase of life is not exactly something we typically look forward to. But it wasn’t this way before. So what if we could reframe ageing, and remember how it’s a time we become our power? ... What if we can use our menstruating years to practice and prepare to welcome our post-menopausal self? What if we can foster a culture that celebrates and reveres our Crones like we used to? What if we give Crones a voice and listen to the lifetime of wisdom they’ve accumulated? I think we would feel better about ageing. I think we would feel better about our periods and cycles. I think we would feel more comfortable in our skins, our emotions, and our intuitive wisdom. And I think girls would feel empowered and confident going into their puberty and menstruating years too. I’m holding 2 workshops in the new year to connect women and girls to their female cycles and power. 23 Jan: a First Moon Circle for girls aged 9-12 to learn about their changing body, emotions, cycle and female superpowers. 13 Feb: a workshop for older teens and women to learn the things they didn’t get to learn as young girls. It’s part learning about how we can use the different phases and powers of the menstrual cycle to empower us as women, mothers, creatives and business owners, and part rite of passage celebration. I would love to welcome you and your daughters. These are also inclusive events open to female-identifying people of all cultures.

10.01.2022 This week in Australia it's NAIDOC week (National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee) which celebrates the achievements and culture of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. NAIDOC Week is a celebration of the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. I acknowledge the traditional owners of the land where I reside, the Gundungarra people, and acknowledge that sovereignty of The Australian lands and waters was never ceeded by the First Nations peoples of this country. It always was, and always will be.

10.01.2022 A beautiful moon and clear sky tonight after the rains. May this eve be a beautiful, fresh new beginning for you too

05.01.2022 Getting ready for an inspiring deep chat with Nicole on her The Empowerment Project Podcast! We’ll be talking all things menarche, menstruation, and how we must reclaim and celebrate our rites of passages if we are to empower females to claim their full power, wellbeing and potential, and how #FirstMoonCircles support this. We MUST help girls stay embodied rather than trigger distrust, dissociation, fear and shame of their bodies. We can do this by helping girls understand th...eir body, how to work with it, to celebrate it and listen to it. Can’t wait - thanks Nicole for having me on! I’ll share the link so you can listen once it’s published! #menarche #ritesofpassage #maiden #mother #menopause #femaleempowerment #feminist #menstrualpower #bloodrites #mentor #coach #sacredmenstruation #initation #bodywisdom #intuition #sovereign

03.01.2022 Only yesterday I commented that although we have plenty of native birds in and around our garden, we never see their feathers. Cut to today and these beauties floated down from the babies nestled high up in the tree on the edge of our garden. Also: today feels hard work and a good time to receive a sign I am heard and supported.... Remembering to breathe through today’s frustration and remember how supported I am. This ISO thing is hard work today, there’s no escape from bored and clingy children and my cold is doing it’s usual thang and evolving into a sinus issue. Deary me. Feeling a bit sorry for myself. But breathing and trying to let my expectations slide. I’m supported. I’m safe. We don’t have covid. The sun is shining. Nature is thriving. The kids won’t be ruined if they watch way too much tv / iPad this week. We’ll come out the other side. I am safe and supported. Thank you for this gift, they’re beautiful

02.01.2022 This week I’ve been creating lesson 3 for the #FirstMoonCircles Facilitator Training about #mca menstrual cycle awareness and cycle self-care. I recorded a really amazing convo for the training with Jolinda Johnson about reproductive hormone health and how we can support ourselves and girls to have healthy hormones and improved menstrual symptoms. And in this class we’re feeling into what cyclical self-care looks like for us - and what it might look like for girls. What we n...eed to remember is that we might be able to make suggestions to the girls who come to our First Moon Circles about how to honour their changing self-care needs around the cycle - but if they aren’t supported by their families (especially mums) it’s not going to stick. That’s why in our First Moon Circles we aim to teach mums Cycle Self-Care and MCA as much as the girls - so they can go home, share tips and challenges, and compare cycle charts! I’m pretty excited to invite the facilitators to begin charting their cycles with my menstrual tracker for those who are menstruating, and my Moon cycle tracker for those who aren’t menstruating (this is the one I use as my period hasn’t shown up yet). Giving this to the girls in our workshops is super helpful to help them see for themselves and be prepared for the ways they will change around the cycle, as well as to observe how their cycle matures and settles in (or needs some help doing so!). If you’re interested in learning all about MCA and Cycle Self-care I cover this in depth, along with heaps of practical sacred self-care tools, charts, ideas, recorded meditations and SO MUCH MORE in my book Simply Sacred Self-care. Available as an ebook or printed book, you can get your hands on a copy plus all the digital downloads too.

02.01.2022 On New Years Eve comes a potent opportunity - before we start with all the resolutions and picking words for the new year - to burn what we are leaving behind in the year that was. What way of being, doing, thinking or living no longer serve? What experiences do you want to leave behind? What do you know has to change?... Whatever it is that you don’t want to carry over with you, it’s time to burn it. Taking pen to paper, write down all these things and light it in ritual until the words burn to ash. As it burns, declare I release you, I am done, so it is. Bringing your clear awareness to these things ensures you don’t carry on perpetuating patterns, because once you see it, you can change it. Perhaps allow the next two weeks to let your vision for 2021 simmer and infuse, and set your intentions powerfully on the January New Moon. This is harnessing the moon’s magick. Alternatively, you could set your intentions on your next bleed, if you have a period. This is menstrual magick. Either way, don’t feel the pressure to have it all figured out for the new year today. There’s no rush, and first, as all good magick makers know, we must clear the old and stagnant before we can call in the new. So happy burning, and happy new year! #whatareyouburningtonight #newyearseve #releaseritual #letgo #fullmoon #newyearsresolution #2021goals #newyear #newyearnewme #newyear #menstrualandmooncyclecoach
