Shownotes

“If we take away the idea of 24 hours, and instead put in the idea of a 28-day cycle, which is our feminine cycle, time expands.”

–Dr. Aumatma

Stop trying to get it all done in a day! Women are meant to work on a 28-day cycle, not a 24-hour, testosterone cycle. I’m really excited to talk with Dr. Aumatma Simmons about getting to know the moon, our cycles, and how thinking about time from a feminine perspective can change everything.

Dr. Aumatma is a naturopathic endocrinologist focused on fertility. She’s found fertility issues stemming from an imbalance in masculine and feminine energy. Things shift in all areas when women step into their feminine power.

To do that, we shift to a 28-day cycle. If you are menstruating, it’s your feminine cycle. If you aren’t (or if you are in the place where things are unpredictable, like me), you sync to the moon.

We talk about: 

  • Why you may struggle with doing things you want in your life the same way every day
  • How to use your cycle to get more done
  • When to focus inward
  • Wanting to stay on the high energy, but needing the period of rejuvenation in our cycle, and the effects of not filling our cup during our menstrual cycle
  • What to do if you cycle is determined by medication or is in flux and how to sync to the moon
  • Women receiving more than giving

DOABLE CHANGES

At the end of every episode, we share three doable changes, so you can take what you've heard and put it into action. Change comes from action. 

Doable changes are things that you can add into your life, one at a time to make micro shifts and really create a ripple effect that will create a big change over time. Choose one that really piques your interest and roll with it — and remember it might not look the same day to day through your cycle. 

Here are three Doable Changes from this conversation:

  • TRACK YOUR CYCLE OR THE MOON. Start tracking your cycle. If you don’t have a menstrual cycle or it is not predictable, start tracking the moon. Track your energy with your menstrual or moon cycle. (You can find a tracker with ideas for playing detective in the Soulful Summer Activity book linked above.) If you already track, start shifting things to better use your energy.
  • PRACTICE RECEIVING. Women often give, give, give to the point of burnout, but we need to receive. Practice saying yes when somebody offers to help you or do something for you. Practice asking people to do things for you.
  • REST AND RECHARGE. Try easing back during menstruation or the new moon. Reschedule things. Skip a workout if you aren’t feeling it or do something lighter. Give in to more rest. See what happens when you rest and restore during this time instead of pushing through.
