Wisdom & Sisterhood on Your Menopause Journey
WISE BLOOD COLLECTIVE
Reiki. Body Wisdom. Brain Activation. Community.
Ancient and Indigenous traditions honored menopause as the time when menstrual blood transitions from flowing outward to nourish life, and turns inward to nourish the woman, becoming Wise Blood—a reservoir of inner power, purpose, and deep knowing. This embodied wisdom becomes a potent force for personal and collective transformation.
Through Reiki healing, somatic regulation, brain activation techniques, and sharing in circle, we honor and support the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual transformation during this sacred rite of passage.
About the sessions:
For women experiencing peri to post-menopause and beyond, during this 90-minute online group experience, you will:
Receive Reiki. Reiki is an energy modality that works with the body's energy system and natural ability to restore and heal. It gently helps bring peace and calm, reduces pain, and balances energy flow. Reiki has also been shown to alleviate menopausal symptoms (Menopause Journal, 2024). Since Reiki is energy, it can be received across any distance. Learn more about how Reiki works here.
Body Wisdom & Connection. Reconnect with your body's innate intelligence—the subtle signals, sensations, and knowing that guide you toward what you need for wellbeing. Through Pilates-inspired movements, body scans, and self-massage, you'll tune into your body's messages and improve health. Rather than viewing your changing body as something to fix, you'll discover how to partner with it, honoring its wisdom and trusting its guidance to improve both physical health and your relationship with your body as it transforms through menopause.
Be Guided through Somatic Regulation and Brain Activation Techniques. Evidence-based breathwork and gentle movement practices to support nervous system regulation, relieve mood swings, and ease cognitive fog. These body-based techniques help you reconnect with your natural capacity for calm and mental clarity.
Share in Circle. Honoring the ancient wisdom of sacred circle and council fires, an intentional space for connection, self-expression, and deep listening. Through witnessed sharing and compassionate presence, we create a container where your experiences are honored and validated. Our voices, presence, and sisterhood become the medicine.
Whether you choose to join us as a one-time experience or an ongoing practice, we welcome you to join the Wise Blood Collective.
What is Wise Blood?
Wise Blood refers to the spiritual transformation of menstrual blood after menopause. In many Indigenous and ancient traditions, menstrual blood was seen as sacred—connected to the cycles of the moon, fertility, and the nourishment of life and land. Women’s cycles were honored as part of the natural and spiritual rhythm of the earth.
When a woman enters menopause and her bleeding stops, that blood is not viewed as lost; instead, it is retained, and with it, her creative and spiritual power turns inward. This retained blood becomes Wise Blood, symbolizing the shift from the outward flow of creation to the inward flow of vision, insight, and energetic potency.
Elder women in many cultures were seen as holders of medicine, benevolent power, and sacred knowing. They were sage counsel for any important decision. No longer creating life through the body, they move the collective forward through their presence, guidance, and wisdom.
