I know how wild, worthy and wise YOU are.

%FIRSTNAME%, I have been looking forward to this for so long.
It is such an honor and privilege to share the profoundly life-changing wisdom of Body Literacy with so many incredible women.
Why do I believe so much in this work? I mean, what's so special about charting your cycle?
For years I believed my body didn’t belong to me. I was on NuvaRing, and I thought my only currency as a woman was if men found me attractive.
I suffered from insomnia, orthorexia and disordered eating. I overexercised. If I hadn’t been on birth control, I probably wouldn’t have had a period, but since I ‘bled’ every month I didn’t think anything was seriously wrong. I couldn’t figure out why I was in pain all the time - emotional, physical and spiritual pain.
Then, I found Fertility Awareness by chance when I found a used copy of Taking Charge of Your Fertility in a pagan store. It changed my life.
Learning to chart my cycle was the first step I took in reclaiming ownership of my body.
Charting gave me the skills and the knowledge to navigate my fertile window without fear.
It brought me discernment in choosing sexual partners who were worthy of my energy.
It led me to my sensual movement practice and dissolving shame around my sexuality. I learned to dance for my own pleasure, to move from my pleasure, to claim joy in my pleasure, and not for anyone else.
Charting led me to understand how wild, worthy and wise I am.
Now when I dance, I dance for me.
I chart for me.
I eat for me.
And I know that everything I do to take care of myself benefits everyone else around me.
I teach Fertility Awareness because I know how transformative it can be.
This path is not for the faint of heart. It demands all your courage, your discernment, and your belief in yourself.
What you receive is body sovereignty.
Those of you who know that this path is for you, you are welcome. I will guide you.
BODY SOVEREIGNTY begins this Sunday at noon!
Join us.
All my love,
Hadley
