Periods

The shedding of an unused baby nest. A ‘period’ is your body’s health report card, if you are overly stressed, not eating, sleeping, feeling well – it will be reflected in your cycle being ‘out of whack’. Periods should not run your life. If they do, something needs balancing. Your life will not be right until this is.

To run a perfect period you need abundant nutrients, water, feel safe and be in a body that can function


The first period signals how luscious and important the new woman is for all the tribe. An exciting time in other cultures. What happens in our world? Secrets, shame, hiding it away  . .  perhaps it is time to out being a bleeding woman as it is the gift of life that we all hold inside us.

We could indulge ourselves, and our daughters.

Gift ourselves and them the awareness that we hold the future.

Easily learn how to honour your bleeding.

Periods – how they start and why

A perfect period – As a girl reaches puberty, once she has almost reached her mature height, her body’s previous growing urges are channeled into a reservoir that allows the “heavenly waters” to flow. Menstrual blood is extra to requirements. This means that if a state of relative extreme stress or deprivation occurs at this time her whole blueprint of perfect periods may be askew.

Comes and goes without ceremony – it just is.
A steady abundant red liquid flow arrives without pain, distress or other bodily symptoms every 28 days.
The flow starts red, and continues smoothly for 4 to 6 days.
Not gushing or clotting – or stopping and starting.
Any digestive, emotional, skin or other allied cyclic occurrences are not part of a well woman’s life.

If these periods sound in any way odd to you, it is quite likely that using ways to return your body to easy periods would benefit all aspects of you being you. NEEDED – circulation and production of Qi and Blood allow for easy periods AND easy fertility, easy pregnancy. easy birthing and easy mothering with an easy baby. Prepare your body for a well pregnancy with healthy, happy outcomes. That is what a period is for. You may wish to never conceive – but your body will be running this biological programme in the background for a good part of your life. As you wish to live well in that body as it is happening and after The Change, it may be a good idea to retrieve a perfect period – so you can have an easy transition into not monthly bleeding and beyond. Easy elder years.

Any period disturbances. Plus all cases of saggy belly/ prolapse/ incontinence/ gut disorders and all things gyne . .Keep your Liver Qi happy

May be a case of a displaced uterus

Heather’s Gentling Way method is a non-invasive, external group of lymph and gyno visceral moves.  By relieving congestion and blockages we improve the flow of Qi and fluids of the circulatory, lymphatic and nervous systems, preventing the progression of chronic disease.

This results in improved organ function by releasing physical and emotional congestion from the abdomen. Back, neck, leg, gut, all now can work properly

External massage gently lifts and guides the uterus into its optimal position in the lower pelvis. The uterus is held in position by over 10 ligaments. Ligaments, when stressed or strained cause the uterus to become mal-positioned.

When stuck with a wonkily placed uterus, nothing works as it should.

LIFE IN GENERAL – is not easy when the centre of your body is not in the centre
Like a wheel on a cycle – the hub HAS to be in the exact middle – or all is ‘off kilter’.

How quickly should I expect a change?

Depending on the severity of the problem, it may take as little as one session and as long as many months for the uterine position to be corrected and for the ligaments to gain enough strength and elasticity for it to stay in place. 3 sessions are usually the minimum.

You will be taught how to massage yourself nightly, how to enjoy a bajo (v steam and do these yourself), the use of castor oil packs, and how to improve your diet resulting in easier periods and fertility sexuality and life – all in your own hands.
