Raising menstrual aware boys

Welcome back to he Cyclical Motherhood podcast!

Today's episode, together with episode 7 are at the heart of Cyclical Motherhood, the second foundational piece of this work.

In this episode Hayley interviews Marinella on her journey of raising her boy (8 years old at the time of recording), as a menstrually aware and cycles aware boy.

We discuss:

• how we can share about our menstrual cycle with our boys 
• what we can do to bring our boys into our menstrual experience
• how we can share about the wider cycles of life with them
• a story of a time it was clear that Marinella’s son had the understanding of the menstrual cycle and the wider cycles of life
• How to begin this conversation about the menstrual cycle and wider cycles with our boys

This conversation is an invitation to normalise menstrual cycle awareness among boys and men too. It is an opening to widen this topic beyond the container that what we have been used to so far (women’s and girls’ circles) and we hope will inspire you in your menstrual mothering of boys.
