#15 How Men Can Provide Support When Their Woman is on Her Period to Deepen Intimacy

The intention of this show is to bring together men and women in harmony and honor each other's masculine and feminine energetic cores.

In this episode of For the Love of Men we discuss

1. What actually happens in her body? The body fluctuates estrogen and progesterone levels throughout the month, ending in a release of the preparations her body has been making all month to support a possible biological pregnancy.


2. The week of the cycle where her body is shedding was historically seen as a sacred time because of the increased sensitivity but often the way we take care of this experience can be met with judgments (lazy, attention-seeking, dramatic, emotional, etc). Action Item: Be curious about her unique experience as a way of understanding what would feel supportive to her. This might give you awareness to be more compassionate


3. For the sake of the partnership, this week can be seen as an opportunity to provide care (hold your judgment, allow her space to process her own emotions if it will overload you) or actionable support (cook, go get the groceries, clean, take on the kids needs) Action Item: Having compassion for the women in your life can go a long way


4. Most women don’t feel like their best/most attractive self which already feels more vulnerable than usual. This may be why many women feel shame or struggle to ask for extra care. Action Item: A generous way to support her may be to create a multiple-choice option for ways you’re willing to provide more care this week.
