One of the most amazing things about the womb is that it always, ever changing. Especially during our cycling years.
It naturally expands larger than other organ in the body when it is carrying a child, and then contracts to its pre-pregnancy size. It grows an internal layer of tissue every month, and sheds it if no pregnancy occurs. It contracts, relaxes, produces cervical fluid, responds to hormones, and is just an overall powerhouse of creativity, intuition and wisdom that we hold in the center of our pelvic bowls.
I'm not sure there is anything quite so miraculous as our wombspaces. Is there??
And according to today's guest, the "so-called womb" is considered a "curious" organ" in TCM partly because it has such a dynamic interplay of relationship with other organs like the kidneys, liver and even heart.
Which is why, when someone comes into her abdominal massage practice with menstrual challenges, she may end up tending other organs, meridians or even parts of the body to support a healthy cycle.
The ecology of the body is so tangible when we look at all of these relationships. And gosh, when we listen, more deeply, to the language of our bellies and wombs, so much is possible.
