This meditation gives busy menstruators a few sacred moments to connect fully with your experience, with acceptance; and affirms the power and beauty of your moon-time. It is intended to be deeply recharging, positive, and empowering, and to honour the deep need for rest and replenishment, during the winter phase of the cycle, with a small, achievable gesture. Music Composed and performed by Christopher Lloyd Clarke. Music used under license from Enlightened Audio.

Now,

As you sit or lie down for these few short minutes,

If you can,

Turn your head off any harsh lighting,

Maybe close the blinds or draw the curtains slightly,

And feel free to support yourself with whatever cushions or soft things you have to hand.

Maybe a rolled up sweater or cardigan,

If you have no cushions or pillows.

Make sure you can be warm and comfortable and cozy.

Once you're settled,

Just remove any glasses you're wearing,

Any long earrings or tight shoes,

And just feel the release and lightness in those places.

Close your eyes if you wish,

And just allow yourself to feel any tiredness,

Heaviness,

Weariness,

Or hunger for utter rest that might be present.

These things are all part of the moon time.

They are not weaknesses.

They are not to be ignored or denied.

They are a part of our power.

The moon time is the body's time of winter.

You have put out so much work,

Creativity,

Caring and energy over the past cycle.

And now there is a bone deep need for rest and recovery,

For slowing and stopping,

So that you can go into the springtime of your next cycle,

Recharged,

Enriched and reborn into the next phase of your life.

This is perfect,

And there's nothing wrong.

It is painful,

Powerful and profound.

So,

Just for now,

Honour the Goddess within by making a few moments of space,

To come into a place of perfect rest and utter surrender.

No effort.

Allow your body to breathe itself.

Don't try to control or to change anything.

Just accept what is,

Without judgement.

This moment of rest is perfection.

And you are perfect,

Just exactly as you are.

You it within the matter.

You
