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!

What "Inanna's Descent into the Underworld" can Teach You about Navigating Life Crises

2023-12-15

Let the story of Inanna's Descent into the Underworld serve as a powerful reminder that life is complex and paradoxical and that it's often in the darkest moments that you can recognise your brightest light.

Stories are how we humans evolve and pass on our experience and wisdom. And stories that encompass the complex reality of being a human on Earth help us feel less alone and more capable of navigating moments of personal crisis. This Advent season, let yourself be enchanted and inspired by the story of Inanna's Descent into the Underworld, which is a powerful reminder that the dark times are necessary and an inherent part of Life. In this episode, I dive into: - The story of Inanna's Descent into the Underworld - What it can teach you about how to navigate a personal moment of crisis with more compassion towards yourself - The fact that as a (cis-/trans)woman or non-binary menstruator you go through a powerful death and rebirth process every month - How the planet Venus' journey may have inspired the story Resources I mentioned: Mystical Twelve Holy Nights (Course): https://lisa-jara.com/en/mystical-twelve-holy-nights What are the Twelve Holy Nights?
