2004-05-14 Thread Maree Lipschitz 



Some of you may be interested 
in knowing about this work being done in Bowral...
 
Women, Spirituality and the BodyRe-envision 
the emotional and spiritual powerof a woman’s 
body with Alexandra PopeThe 
deep rhythms of a woman’s body from menarche through the menstruating years and 
motherhood to menopause are an inner self-development and guidance system for 
emotional and spiritual maturation and a doorway to the ecstatic sacred. A woman 
who fully appreciates her cyclic nature develops a high sensitivity, and a rich 
emotional and intuitive wisdom sourced from a deep inner connection with herself 
and her relationship with the 
World.Participants of this workshop will? Strengthen women’s way of knowing and acting? Feel more effective 
and authoritative in the world? Relish the grace of inspiration and 
ecstasy? Understand your own rhythms for creativity, activity and rest? 
Enhance intuition? Ease menstrual and menopausal difficulties? Discover 
the power of female cyclic lifeUsing engaged dialogue and experiential exercise, we will? unfold the psycho/spiritual process of the menstrual cycle (including 
the transitions at menarche and menopause), ? explore how this cultivates 
spiritual wisdom in womenAlexandra Pope has 30 
years experience as an educator, and 15 years experience as a psychotherapist in 
private practice. She is currently also a Personal and Professional Coach. 
Author of The Wild Genie: The Healing Power of Menstruation (Sally Milner 
Publishing, 2001) and Walking with the Genie: The Modern Woman’s Menstrual 
Health Kit (self published, 2001), she has received coverage in national 
media including television, radio and print media. Ruth Ostrow in The Weekend 
Australian described her work as “set to change the way a woman’s menstrual 
cycle is viewed in Western Society...(Pope’s view has) such resonance and 
potency as to be life-changing”Where:

Hi Belinda, I'm working with a wonderful woman called Alexandra Pope who has
great knowledge in this area of menstrual health. She's written a book
called 'The Wild Genie: The Healing Power of Menstruation' which I highly
recommend for all women to read and she runs workshops on menstrual health
as well.  Her website is www.wildgenie.com and her suggestions have
certainly helped me. I know she does phone consultations and her number is
(02) 9310-0591.

She, Shushann Movsessian and I are currently organising a weekend workshop
on puberty for mothers and their 9-13 yr daughters called 'Journey into
Womanhood' Jul 30-Aug 1 in Randwick, Sydney. If your friend is in this age
range and can get to this, it may also help.

I hope she finds some relief soon...
Warm regards

eek! t here's another Kirsten on the list!!

I personally swear by Evening Primrose Oil capsules. Someone put me on them
year ago and my husband is eternally grateful. Starflower oil is the other
option, they both contain GLA (gamma lineolic acid?).

Hi,
Different things work for different woman but I find for myself who used to
suffer PMS quite severely that taking a vitamin B6 (100mg tablets )
supplement has worked so well, I don't even suffer from slight mood swings
any more!
