The secret of menstrual cycle – Exploring Natural Rhythms of a Woman, a Holistic Approach

Understanding Natural Rhythms: A Holistic Approach to Womanhood

Welcome to this exploration of the natural rhythms of a woman. Today, we are delving into a vast subject – one that encompasses entire workshops and volumes of study. We are merely scratching the surface, but our goal is to provide a practical, universal approach to uncovering our potential as females.

Before we begin, a note on housekeeping: we invite you to hold your questions until the end. We will be making several statements that may seem abrupt or unqualified; we ask that you reserve judgment until the conclusion of the presentation, as you may find your questions answered as we progress.

The Spiritual Journey

When we look at the human experience, we are reminded of the quote: "We are not human beings on a spiritual journey; we are spiritual beings on a human journey." While many nod to this intellectually, we want to make it a practical reality.

To simplify our terminology, we will use the word "I" to refer to the spiritual being – the observer, the higher self, or the soul. The "me" – comprising the body, emotions, and thoughts – represents the human journey.

An Exercise in Awareness: To feel the distinction between the "I" and the "me," consider this: 1. You can move your body, therefore you cannot be your body; you control it. 2. You can change your thoughts, therefore you cannot be your thoughts; you control them. 3. You can shift your emotions, therefore you cannot be your emotions; you control them.

This begs the question: Who or what is the "I" that is controlling these faculties?

True Healing and the Language of the Body

In the context of coMra therapy, we define "dis-ease" as a gap in our knowledge – a lack of experiential understanding. Information is reading about bungee jumping; knowledge is the experience of jumping. When we have a gap in our experience of ourselves, it manifests as a lack of ease.

If we do not address these gaps at the mental or emotional level, they manifest in the body. The body is a mirror, and symptoms are a blessing in disguise – they are the "smoke detector" alerting us to a fire. If we only treat the symptom (the smoke detector), we fail to address the underlying cause. True healing involves using the body’s language to identify where we are out of balance and filling those gaps in knowledge from the perspective of the "I."

The Menstrual Cycle as an Opportunity

For women, the menstrual cycle is a profound natural rhythm. Often, girls are introduced to menses through a lens of shame, secrecy, or as a "curse." This conditioning encourages us to suppress our symptoms and emotions rather than viewing them as a gateway to self-discovery.

Menstruation is a physical release of the old to prepare for the new. This process is not merely physical; it is an emotional and mental cycle as well. Every month, we have an opportunity to connect with the mystery of who we are.

Avril Murrin’s Story: "I once worked as a health consultant and manager. During a pre-menstrual phase, I felt highly agitated by inefficiencies in the business. I had previously shared my concerns with the owner, but when I overheard them claiming ignorance about the business's problems, I felt betrayed and angry.

In the first scenario, I suppressed these feelings to 'manage' the day. When I arrived home, I was still carrying that charge. When Garrett greeted me, my grumpiness triggered a defensive reaction in him. We ended up in a fight, followed by a cold silence. We both suppressed our hurt, missing the opportunity to learn."

Relationships and Coherence

Relationships, particularly between men and women, are a primary arena for this work. Women are highly intuitive and sensitive during their cycles. If a woman is not grounded in her "I," she may project her negative emotions onto her partner. Conversely, if a man views these emotions only as "irrational" or "negative," he misses a vital opportunity to support his partner and learn from the deeper, subconscious truths that surface during this time.

The Second Scenario: "In a second scenario, I returned home with the same emotional charge. However, this time, I took a pause. Instead of immediately reacting or suppressing, I acknowledged the surge of anger and sadness. By pausing, I created space for the 'I' to observe the 'me.' This shift allows for a different kind of interaction – one where the partner can listen beyond the face value of the words to the underlying need for connection or understanding."

Facilitating Wholeness with coMra Therapy

coMra therapy (Coherent Multi-Radiance Therapy) serves as a powerful tool in this journey. By using low-level laser, LED, magnetic fields, and ultrasound, it supports the body’s own healing capacity. When we are in a state of hormonal flux or emotional distress, coMra therapy helps bring the body back into a state of coherence.

Whether you are a woman navigating your cycles or a man supporting the women in your life, this approach is about moving beyond the fragmented parts of the "me" and working from the perspective of the "I." Nature wants us to win, and by embracing these rhythms as opportunities for growth rather than burdens to be suppressed, we move closer to the wholeness that is our birthright.

Navigating Emotional Sensitivity and the "I" Perspective

In the previous segment, we explored the importance of moving beyond the fragmented "me" to work from the perspective of the "I." Continuing this journey, it is essential to recognize that when we feel overwhelmed, our initial reactions – such as a stern tone or a desire to lash out – often stem from this fragmented state.

For instance, when feeling the pressure of work-related stress, it is easy to project that frustration onto a partner. However, when a partner like Garrett responds with calm, warmth, and the offer of space, it creates a container for true healing. In such moments, accepting a coMra therapy treatment – such as the Universal 5 protocol – can help harmonize one’s state of being, allowing for a deeper release of pent-up emotions.

The Language of the Body and the Spiral of Growth

Learning from the language of the body requires a conscious desire to stop suppressing our experiences. When we resist our natural rhythms, we often experience what can be described as "tumultuous misery." This is not an inherent quality of emotional sensitivity, but rather the result of suppressing the hurt and dissonance that we have carried for years.

It is important to understand that these gaps in our knowledge are not filled overnight. Life moves in turns of a spiral; we revisit these challenges repeatedly, gaining deeper insights with each pass. As women, we have approximately 500 weeks – or 3,500 days – of menstrual cycles in a lifetime. This represents a massive opportunity for guidance and growth. If we treat these cycles as burdens to be medicated or ignored, we miss a decade’s worth of potential for self-discovery.

Uncovering the Roots of Conditioning

Reflecting on personal history often reveals how early experiences shape our perception of womanhood. Many women grow up with the conditioning that their emotional sensitivity during menses is "negative" or "dangerous." Memories of being mocked or seeing these natural rhythms portrayed as a monster-like state on television can lead to deep-seated shame.

By choosing to come from the "I," we can pause and connect the dots between these past wounds and our current reactions. When we stop identifying with the "me" that feels like a "negative person," we gain the clarity to see the true cause of our pain. This shift is equally vital for men; by supporting their partners without rushing to "fix" them, men become active participants in the healing process. As Garrett notes, if he frustrates this process by jumping to solutions, he loses the opportunity for growth as well.

Menses as a Rhythm of Mystery and Power

When we stop suppressing our natural rhythms, menses transforms into a rhythm of mystery and power. We become more in tune with nature, accessing an altered state of awareness that allows us to let go of the old and conceive the new. This is not merely about physical fertility; it is about nurturing our lives, our relationships, and our purpose.

coMra therapy serves as a powerful tool in this process. By introducing coherence to the body, coMra therapy does not suppress symptoms; rather, it facilitates the body’s own healing capacity, helping to harmonize the physical, emotional, and mental levels. It supports the "clean-up" process, allowing us to move through our cycles with greater ease and insight.

The Path to the Wise Woman

Ultimately, this trajectory leads toward the archetype of the wise woman or matriarch. By consistently harmonizing ourselves with nature and letting go of the old, we prepare for the transition into menopause with wisdom rather than bitterness. In times past, the wise woman was the village healer and teacher – a role that is desperately needed in our society today.

Conversely, if we continue to view our natural rhythms as problems to be eradicated, we risk moving toward the "toothless old hag" – a state of bitterness and fragmentation. This is a choice we make through our daily actions. By choosing to stay aware, to embrace our sensitivity, and to work in partnership with those around us, we turn our life’s challenges into a source of profound wisdom.

As we continue to fill in our gaps in knowledge, we move toward a life of greater harmony, power, and authentic connection.

The Role of the Masculine in the Feminine Journey

The conversation shifts toward the practical application of these principles, specifically regarding the "mother’s awareness" – a term used to describe the instinct to preserve and protect. While this is a beautiful and necessary aspect of life, it requires balance. Without that balance, the feminine polarity can become fragmented, leading to resistance rather than the fluid, intuitive exploration of one’s own nature.

Denise offers a profound perspective on this dynamic, describing the masculine as the "tree trunk" – the core strength and anchor that allows the feminine to explore the realms of intuition. She notes that for a woman, having a partner who can hold space in silence is essential. Without that stable, masculine presence, the feminine energy can feel scattered or ungrounded. When a man remains strong and present, he acts as a catalyst, drawing the feminine into a deeper, more coherent flow of information and self-discovery.

Garrett Murrin acknowledges this, noting that when he becomes "wobbly" – losing his own center – he inadvertently short-circuits the process for his partner. Instead of providing an anchor, he may jump to premature solutions to soothe his own discomfort. True strength in a man, he suggests, lies in his capacity to remain still and receptive, which serves as the ultimate support for a woman’s journey of self-uncovering.

The Spiral of Menopause and Life Force

Lola shares a deeply personal experience regarding her transition through menopause. She recounts a time in the Himalayas where, living in complete communion with nature, her menstrual cycle became perfectly regulated to the moon. However, upon returning to a high-stress environment, she found herself bleeding profusely – a physical manifestation of her life force being drained by external pressures, family crises, and professional demands.

When a wise woman asked her, "What is bleeding your life force?", it served as a turning point. Lola realized that her cycle was no longer a natural rhythm but a symptom of being out of control and disconnected from herself. By choosing to pull back, seek support, and return to her own center, she transformed her menopausal experience from a medical crisis into a profound journey of self-realization. She emphasizes that surgery or medical intervention would have only been a temporary fix, whereas addressing the root cause allowed her to complete a vital turn in her personal "spiral."

Understanding the Mystery of the Feminine

The discussion concludes with a reflection on the inherent differences between the masculine and feminine paths. While the masculine approach is often described as a "straight line" of focused depth, the feminine encompasses the entire breadth of the human experience.

For those looking to explore these dynamics further, the teachings of Théun Mares, founder of Radiant Life Technologies, offer a comprehensive guide. His work, particularly the material found in the Toltec Teachings series – specifically Volume 3 – delves into the mysteries of the female polarity, the male approach, and the art of cooperation. These resources provide an invaluable roadmap for both men and women to understand their respective roles and to facilitate a more harmonious, powerful, and authentic connection with themselves and each other.

As the webinar closes, the team expresses their gratitude to the participants, noting that they plan to host a dedicated webinar on the masculine experience in the new year. They encourage everyone to continue their journey of self-discovery, emphasizing that while the path is complex, the rewards of living in coherence are profound.
