Cycle Power Live

Welcome, we’re thrilled you’re here.

This 6 week live online programme is for you if you want to realise the true potency and power of the menstrual cycle and take your seat in a revolution that can transform how we live, work and relate to each other and our beloved planet...

How will Cycle Power help you?

Whether you’re brand-new to the power of your menstrual cycle, you've been tracking your menstrual cycle for years, or you’re heading towards menopause, we invite you to join us for six weeks of soulful, inspiring, exploration that has the potential to transform every aspect of your life…

Embrace your cycle

Get to know your inner seasons more deeply (rather than trying to have the cycle that the ‘textbook’ says your cycle could/should be).

Step into your power

Learn how to awaken and wield the powers of each inner season to claim the life you were born to live and have meaningful impact.

Know yourself

Understand how to practice Menstrual Cycle Awareness through each of the inner seasons (and Crossover Days), so you can learn to love and cooperate with your own true nature.

Claim your cyclical nature

Learn how to restore your own inner ecology, so you can soothe your nervous system, express your needs, hold your boundaries and be nourished (especially by the spiritual power of menstruation).

What people are saying about the power of this work:

“I have been able to transform my life”

I learned to work with the cycle that I have, not the one I wish I had, and in doing so, I have been able to transform my life, giving myself the rest, fuel, and outlets that I need. When I focus on what is real in my life and move away from the imaginary world of “shoulds and wishes” I step into my power.

“my body is my true religion”

This was the beginning of an incredible journey into the depths of creation and my aliveness as a woman, opening me to a bone deep truth that I now deepen every day through cycle awareness - that “my body is my true religion”.

Menstrual Cycle Awareness has been a transformational practice for me—life-changing and layered. Medicine permeating to and through all of my relationships. Finding Red School has been like falling into an enormous velvety cushion, where I feel held to rest as long as I need and bolstered to integrate this work (that also feels like love) and wisdom into my life.

“Gifting me with some incredibly helpful insights”

I have gleaned so many insights from all aspects of the course...I particularly loved the medicine circles. I had some really strong visualisations come to me during each of the inner season medicine circles gifting me with some incredibly helpful insights about my relationship with each of my inner seasons and I felt a real intimacy grow... I thoroughly enjoyed the course and received so many insights and tips and support to help nurture my own MCA practice for which I am so so grateful.

“I’m standing at the beginning of an incredible journey ahead”
‍
Taking this first step into menstrual cycle awareness through the Cycle Power course has been life-changing. I feel like I’m standing at the beginning of an incredible journey ahead, one that’s already bringing more clarity, connection, and balance into my life. And even though adopting this new way of life feels completely new and a little foreign, it’s so exciting.I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me!

We warmly invite you to discover the magic of your inner seasons directly from the teachers who have devoted over 35 years to naming and illuminating them…

Perhaps you've learned about the inner seasons but want to go deeper than surface level cycle tracking and syncing... or you’re frustrated that you aren’t experiencing more of what you’ve read or heard about. You may sense the power and feel a yearning to claim it fully in your body.

When you truly understand your inner seasons you unleash a force of nature within you.

Learn how to:

→ Yield to the call of surrender during inner winter (menstruation) so that you can heal burnout, receive the Mother Hug and experience rested power.

→ Move tenderly with inner spring (pre-ovulation) and come to relish your pace, your uniqueness and the playfulness and possibility this awakens within you.

→ Allow yourself to be unashamedly YOU. Unleash your full expression in inner summer (ovulation) and experience the great pleasure of sharing your gifts in the world.

→ Slow down and hold yourself through the fire of inner autumn (premenstruum) so that you can tap into intuitive knowing, claim your authority and stand for what truly matters to you.

Hi, we're Alexandra & Sjanie

We’re your guides for Cycle Power, as well as being the founders of Red School and the authors of two Hay House books, Wild Power and Wise Power.

We’re honoured to have built a global community of over 50,000 menstrual-culture-shifters who are leading the menstruality revolution.

When we first named the powers of the inner seasons of the cycle back in 2005 the response from people we shared it with was visceral, eye opening and potent - we imagine you felt it too; a homecoming to your own body wisdom.

When we published Wild Power in 2017, illuminating the many ways our inner seasons can restore our health, vitality, creativity and spiritual connection, a magnificent wave of Menstrual Cycle Awareness was unleashed across the world.

Over the past decade, through over 10,000 hours of ethno-biographic research with our students, we’ve unearthed the inner ecology of the menstrual cycle, and how to work with it to unlock new levels of health, vitality, creativity, purpose and power.

Now, in Cycle Power, we invite you to join us to EMBODY this cyclical intelligence in your life.

With four decades of combined experience in the fields of psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, coaching, conscious dance and martial arts, teaching and facilitation, Alexandra and Sjanie now aim to uplift, educate and inspire the leaders of the global menstruality movement and instate menstrual cycle awareness in the heart of every boardroom, classroom and dinner table discussion on the planet

What people are saying about the power of this work:

“Every woman on the planet should know this!”

For me, realising that the 'inner critic' during the autumn week is a source of power instead of PMS syndrome needing to be medicated was the biggest revelation of us as I think every woman on the planet should know this!

Vanessa Parrado Lobo

“there is nothing wrong with me”

My greatest take away was that there is nothing wrong with me because I shapeshift throughout the cycle, and that the more I resist my cycle, the louder it gets. When I do listen, the rewards waiting for me in the chamber of menstruation are indescribably rich. That framework of working with my cycle has led me to understand my place in the world and in my life.

Isobel Ripley

“It has become one of the threads in my life that holds it all together”
‍
I now experience such a rich refinement process from one cycle to the next, moon by moon, year by year. This process work of Menstrual Cycle Awareness and the exercises has really spoken to the mystic, healer, cultural activist, woman, and even much to the child in me. It has become one of the threads in my life that holds it all together (and holds ME together). Thank you so much!

“giving me deep and tangible ways to reconnect to power”

The biggest revelation for me was what I discovered about my relationship to power in general. Those reflection questions about our relationship to power were quite profound for me. I have been thinking deeply about how I’ve been fearful of power in others and myself and the myriad ways I have held my power back. This course (Cycle Power) was so helpful for me. In giving me deep and tangible ways to reconnect to power and shed old ideas of what that means.

MC Decker

“I feel more equipped to set out into the menopausal hinterlands”

Cycle Power was superbly crafted and paced. It landed perfectly with me. Diving deeper into the power inside the inner seasons opened up a new vibrant world for me. I was feeling a bit lost as I navigate my way towards menopause. Now I understand better the (inner) maps...and I feel more equipped to set out into the menopausal hinterlands. Great medicine for mind, body and soul.

“Every person is seen as their whole self”
‍
When you learn from Alexandra and Sjanie every person is seen as their whole self, and their experience is important - it is woven into the teaching and into the work in this very personalised way. I also love their honesty and their sense of humour, which goes a long way in a topic which can sometimes be heavy!

How Cycle Power works

SIX MODULES

Each module will immerse you in the power of the menstrual cycle—taking each inner season in turn. With our specially crafted exercise we take you behind the ‘scenes’ of your everyday experience to receive revelatory insight and taste the inner season’s true gift to you.

INSPIRING TEACHINGS:

The week begins each Friday when we release a 20-30 minute original teaching from Sjanie and Alexandra revealing a different aspect of the power of your menstrual cycle. Listen to these before the live sessions.

LIVE SESSIONS

We’ll meet together live each Wednesday/Thursday, where Alexandra and Sjanie will guide you in our specially crafted process to illuminate the teachings. You’ll have a chance to share your experience from the exercise with others on the course and also be invited to share your experience (if you choose) with Alexandra and Sjanie who will work intimately with your questions / insights / explorations.

INNER SEASON PRACTICES

For each inner season you will learn about a specific self care practice and be tasked to practise it. These inner season practices are life-long tools that help to activate the power of the menstrual cycle.

COMMUNITY

You’ll be invited to share your cycle check-ins and insights about the teachings with the vibrant community of like-minded participants on the course (many people say this is one of the most powerful elements of the programme). The community space will be supported by our team of highly experienced mentors who will provide support and guidance.

LISTENING PARTNERSHIP (optional)

Be witnessed, inspired and nurtured in your menstrual cycle awareness practice by a listening partnership (these often become long-term, deep, cycle-inspired friendships).

In this module we'll gather the harvest of everything you've been practicing. Revisit what you've learnt about yourself and your unique needs through the inner seasons of your cycle; what boundaries you meet within yourself; how to expand your capacity to assert these boundaries and take care of these needs; and the means by which you can awaken the power of each inner season within you.

We'll unpack the five ways that awareness of the inner seasons, and care for them, helps you to grow and maintain the foundations for your power so you can step out into the world as your brilliant, authentic self.

What people are saying about the power of this work:

“How can a transformation be so possible in the course of a week?”
‍
For the first time in my entire life, aged 45, I get the magic of the bleed! I made the decision to not take pain killers this month and really sit with the pain and just see what unfolded. This was accompanied (for the first time ever) by clear boundaries to the rest of the household and copious amounts of rest and retreat. I have learned more in the last 4 days about what is possible to receive during my bleed, than I have in all my menstrual journey. This is actual magic! True witchery at its finest and I am in love with inner winter! I NEVER in a million years would have said those words before this Cycle Power course...The wash of love, the deep insightful, visionary meditations and a true spiritual connection to my bleed. It’s almost impossible to put into words it felt so “other worldly”! How can a transformation be so possible in the course of a week?

Sophie Kerr

“noticing the rhythm has just allowed me to feel more at home with my unique self”
‍
I feel like I've discovered this rhythm that I've never noticed. I've had a really rough time with my womb and my period. I'm 44, and since I've been noticing this cycle, my menstrual cycle has kind of become more stable and predictable…(it) has played with me for the last four months, in a way that's been really beneficial and healing and holding for me…noticing the rhythm has just allowed me to feel more at home with my unique self…paying attention to myself in this way and seeing myself reflected in nature and nature reflected inside of me has been so powerful and so moving. (It) is like a pathway…such a beautiful pathway where I am on the bridge and there's a force in front of me and I don't know where I'm going, but the bridge is sturdy and I feel like I'm supported and I'm walking through it unafraid.

Rae Johnson-Moonstone

“I feel like I’ve been handed a compass for how to live my best and fullest self”
‍
The whole thing has been transformational, and I don’t use the word lightly. I honestly feel quite profoundly changed, yet somehow more myself- more aligned more purposeful- more vital. I began the course not that long after a second trimester miscarriage and my hormones/mind/body/spirit felt in chaos. Not only do I feel deeply nourished and healed from this, I also feel like I’ve been handed a compass for how to live my best and fullest self. I feel my calling has woken up inside me and I now know how to listen and respond to it. I always knew I had power in me, but have, off and on, felt frustrated by its lack of direction. I feel totally different about this now. Not only do I feel much clearer and more aligned with my purpose, but I have a deep confidence that the answers are, and always have been within me.
