Welcome back to the Cyclical Motherhood podcast!

This is the first of four episodes focusing on the inner and outer seasons. Understanding and embodying the seasons is one of the foundational pieces of our work with Cyclical Motherhood. 

In this episode we discuss:

• nature’s winter
• our inner winter or menstruation
• winter in our motherhood journey
• our understanding and experience of this season within our bodies and the resonances with this season in nature and in our lives as mothers
• the importance of the preparation for winter as crucial for a “good winter” and consequently crucial for a good overall cycle
• how our inner winters have changed since motherhood
• some monthly winter rituals that carry us through our mothering

This is a very rich and longer than usual conversation, as we both love winter so much and we couldn't stop talking!
