cyclic wisdom awareness training
6 week journey - ONLINE
May 15 - July 3
Welcome Sister, take your seat in the Circle
Invitation:
Women are cyclical beings, living in a linear world.
While we change throughout the month, we are expected to be the same woman every single day.
THE JOURNEY:
This is a journey to (re)connect with the wisdom of your cyclic female body, whether you are still bleeding or in peri, post or menopause. It entails a somatic process for you to connect to your female body, and the wisdom that lies behind its cyclicity.
THEMES: during 6 sessions we will be diving into:
- Understanding in our body, how female sexuality became (& still is) taboo and the consequences that that has in our lives and our Planet.
- (Embodied) understanding and reflection of our inner feminine & masculine and their role.
- The feminine & masculine archetypal energies that lay behind each phase of our menstrual cycle and of our life as women. How they manifest in each of us and how we can call/embody and flow with them regardless of age.
- The gifts (and challenges) of our pre-menstrual / (post) menopausal phase, and meeting, understanding and befriending the inner critic that lives there.
- Understanding our cyclic nature as a mirror of bigger cycles (Earth, Moon, Ancient Calendars & Cosmogonies, Life)
- Being cyclical in a linear world - integrating it all in our daily lives.
METHODS:
Our main tool of enquiry will be our body through therapeutic somatic/movement practices and self enquiry, but there will also be theory, journaling and verbal exchange. There will be homework (mainly somatic/meditation practices) and a creative process along the journey.
SESSIONS: the process consists of 6 sessions, each one of 2,5 hrs within 8 weeks.
- We will meet on Friday mornings on May 15, 29, June 5, 12, 26 & July 3.
- All sessions will be recorded in case you miss them. However, it is important to be present live minimum 3 of the 6 including the first and hopefully the last one.
- Besides the session you will have some homework to do (mostly consisting of a daily meditation practice, some journaling and cycle or moon tracking.
- You will be invited to undertake a creative project along the journey in whatever language you choose (visual, writing, movement, etc).
FEE / INVESTMENT:
I am aiming to make this journey as accessible as possible and my priority & biggest requirement is a real call, curiosity & commitment to your process.
Suggested sliding scale: CAD$495, $395, $295, $150 (the lowest fee is for those who already did the Embrace your Shakti weekend workshop).
Registration closes on Tuesday 12th of May.

“Re-discovering this wisdom has brought a completely new and inspiring understanding of myself as a Woman. ”
— CLARA, SPAIN
“When I first heard about the mensuration workshop, I was a little skeptical. I had my period for half of my life - what is there for me to learn? But I was also intrigued so I went. It was life changing!
In the busyness of life and my corporate career, I lost touch with the rhythm of my cycle and the seasons. Ever since the workshop, I’m actively working to get back in touch to living according to the wisdom of my body.
Veronica is an amazing guide, she has soooo much heart and wisdom, but her true magic is her ability to guide me towards my own heart and wisdom.
Thank you so much Vero for all your work.
With love and gratitude”

Eye opening, inclusive, soft, inspiring, and created a deeper devotion and love towards my own healing and health journey. Veronica is patient, thorough, and plants a seed of curiosity that is oh so appreciated. What I got out of it was a better knowing of the rhythms and cycles of my body, the importance of listening to nature's cues and clues, and that womxnhood is complex and incredibly beautiful. If you're in Vancouver and have the opportunity, take this class! So worth it!
