Womb Whispers

Let’s be honest: As a woman or menstruating person in this society, it isn’t exactly easy to grow up with a lot of reverence for your body, nor your cycle. In this spiritual-feminist podcast about menstrual wisdom and activism for our modern times, I share musings, reflections and conversations to make living as a cyclical being (ALL beings are cyclical, by the way!) in a world set up for linear progress more easeful for you. Let yourself be inspired to detox from the systems of oppression you’ve most probably internalised, so you can walk the spirals of your life with more confidence and trust in yourself and your gorgeous body and reclaim the superpower and ancient wisdom already stored in your bones! And no, you don’t need to have a uterus to benefit from this!

A Fireside Chat about the Beauty of Death as a necessary phase in our human evolution

2022-12-23

In the western part of the world, Death is a scary thing, the end of something. Maybe our pain can be carried in a way that is infused with beauty, when we realise Nature works in cycles and we are able to experience a rebirth of something new.

Death in this western part of the world is a scary thing, it feels like the end of something, losing something. We are no longer connected to what was, the history, the happy memories, so it feels really brutal, a painful process. Maybe our pain can be carried in a way that is infused with beauty, when we realise this is how nature, the universe, the cosmos works. It works in shapes that are circular, it works through cycles, it works through seasons. And as we go through those seasons, we are able to experience a rebirth of something, of a pattern, of a relationship, and it gives so much room for new things, new growth, new perspectives. And that is where the beauty is, whenever we let go of the old pattern, we’re actually making room for a new one, one that we hopefully get to consciously choose and create and design into our life. In today’s Fireside Chat, my guest Yanaëlle Ntwa and I speak about: 01:58 Who Yanaëlle is and our cycle check-in 05:19 Yanaëlle’s perspective on the Beauty of Death as a necessary step in human evolution 09:05 The little deaths we die all the time, especially as women and/or people who bleed, and what we can learn from them about Life 12:33 Yanaëlle’s and my musings about what happens after the death of a body 16:55 Death is a transition and it’s less painful when we open to its teachings 21:06 Yanaëlle’s journey with anxiety around Death and what helped/helps her move through it 26:53 We are never truly as alone as we might think 29:56 Through writing/journaling, meditating or Nature walks we can connect back to this neutral observer within, drop the chatter of the mind and see the bigger picture 35:45 The cycles help us strengthen our truth and identity 38:29 How to connect with Yanaëlle and read some of her poetry 39:32 Yanaëlle’s message for us: Let it be.
