My personal journey with this work began in my early 20’s. I was experiencing debilitating social anxiety in the week before I bled. Super painful cycles that had me literally on the floor for days at a time. I had a long experience with bacterial vaginosis that was mired with shame and confusion. I was reeling and waking up after years of active sexuality that was completely out of integrity with my body and soul.

Eventually, I heard about Arvigo Abdominal therapy and sought out a practitioner. I felt my womb shift within the first few strokes of the massage. The relief was massive. My next cycle was pain free. I found the courage to seek out help with my other issues. I found a midwife to to a well woman check, and was diagnosed with BV. The midwife gave me typical advice about my BV. Stop eating sugar, take some probiotics. My Arvigo practitioner didn’t seem to think I would benefit from more care after our first session.

But I knew I had a long way to go on my healing journey, and I wasn’t feeling met by the paradigm I was relating to. That was the moment that revealed to me that women need care that goes deeper. We need real education, including affirmation and encouragement to listen to our own bodies and intuition. We need so much more than is given, and we need to have space to let go of so much of what we are taught. We need truth, we need each other. It’s been years of taking a mind/body/soul approach to my own healing that has allowed me to contact these truths, these simple medicines that are the root of lifelong health.

Flipping the script on the lie of inevitable female suffering and weakness, these foundational wisdoms reveal our power, our grace, our miracle. The herbs call out to us and show us our perfect remedy, assure us of our right to heal. The cycles of the moon demonstrate our profound power to grieve, release and regrow. The perceived limitations of our cycles are actually the roadmap to our fullest creative potential expressed.

I know now that we heal on many levels. The answer to my BV wasn’t probiotics. I was liberated from the years long cycle of infection the day I finally walked away from a long, heavy and sad partnership that had been dampening my inner flame for years. That’s why we acknowledge the anatomy, the nervous system, the physiology, the soul and community in this container. A healthy tree has diverse roots, is in contact with a vast network of resource sharing, information and companionship. The same is true for us, and this container will be like a deep rain and a percolation of so many nutrients.
