SUMMARY:Healthy Menstruation: Food and Herbs to Support a Pain-Free Cycle
DESCRIPTION:There can be a lot of pain and baggage associated with our ‘time of the month’ for folks with menstrual cycles. In this class\, dietician Melinda Penny-Washington\, and herbalist Kellan Mackay will collaborate to uncover: how to know our bodies in relation to our cycles\, how to support them with foods and herbs\, to address the emotions surrounding menstruation\, and ultimately to appreciate our cycles. \nThis is a two-part class that will allow a moon cycle to pass in between. Your ticket is valid for the whole workshop which includes both dates. \nPart I— April 29 (3:30pm to 5:30pm): We will look at the history and practices of menstruation through a multicultural lens and encourage folks to get curious about their ancestral roots on this topic. One of the reasons that the menstrual cycle is considered ‘the curse’ is because of what have been considered ‘problems’ associated with it. We will address food and herbs for cramps\, pain\, lethargy\, and food cravings. We will also illuminate actionable ways for folks to develop a ritual around their cycle that feels safe and sacred. \nPart II — May 27 (3:30pm to 5:30pm): We’ll get into the kitchen! We will show you how to make a few foods and herbal remedies for preventative and acute menstrual health. You will get recipes for nutritious soups\, snacks\, chocolates\, teas\, herbal body oils with essential oils for lymph care\, and herbal baths. This is where the rubber meets the road in choosing lifestyle practices that make sense for the symptoms you are experiencing and want to alleviate. \nAbout the Instructor(s):\nKellan MacKay is a garden coach\, horticulturist\, and herbalist. She has been studying organic and regenerative agriculture and herbalism\, growing and foraging to make herbal products\, and collecting plant knowledge in California for 13 years. She has been infusing oils\, formulating teas\, and making tinctures for her product line for five years. Kellan is the mom of twins who used her diet and knowledge about plants to influence a healthy birth outcome for herself and her kids. You can find out more at https://khelaherbs.com/ \nMelinda Penny-Washington — As a registered dietitian specializing in diabetes and ancestral wisdom and a guided meditation practitioner Melinda guides others in the understanding of what the body needs to heal\, the connections between culture and health habits\, and how to remove the subconscious blockers to achieve desired health outcomes. She uses this knowledge in supporting the health practices of her two children\, and clients in clinics and in the community. healthybalance3.com
