Fuck this culture of extraction and control.
And fuck any "embodiment" teachings that perpetuate it.
DO NOT ALLOW this culture of domination and extraction to fuck with the intimacy you’re building with you body.
Fuck “biohacking” and “optimising your hormones for maximum productivity”.
Your body wants to teach you how to FREE YOURSELF from all that bullshit.
It drives me up the fucking wall when I see content promoting ✨embodiment✨, but the vibe is “here’s how to more effectively extract from your body so you can be more productive and better at living inside of capitalism”.
Cycle awareness spaces in particular are rife with this bullshit.
It’s all Boss Babe this and Optimising Hormones that and Cycle Syncing For Your Powerhouse Era.
No no no!!!! Stop it. Hush. This is the opposite of what we need.
Our cycling bodies are very literally a tangible map OUT of the colonial capitalist hustle we’re all indoctrinated into, if we let them be.
Learning how to more effectively EXTRACT from your body for profit and productivity is NOT how we build intimacy with ourselves.
Radical cycle awareness will teach you to DISRUPT that conditioning — not fawn to it in a new pseudo-feminist way.
Your cycling body, when left to its own incredibly wise devices, will sit at the very antithesis of the linear, binary, exponential-growth-and-forward-momentum-obsessed conditioning of colonial capitalism.
Learning how to attune yourself to your cycling body in a decolonial way means that cycle by cycle, your body is already showing you how to liberate your mind.
Radical cycle work is a fucking game changer for our recovery from colonial capitalism.
But definitely NOT if all we’re doing is treating our bodies like the coloniser treats the land.
Which is to say that all we’re doing is dominating, controlling, extracting, and desecrating ourselves.
This is a big part of the reason why REWILDING happened in the first place.
It’s evolved a whole bunch since I first began building it, but at its core it’s still radical cycle work as an embodied map OUT of the colonial conditioning of our culture.
Cycle work saved me. It continues to save me. It shows me the way forward, it calls me back into my humanity, and it deepens my recovery with every wax and wane of my body.
REWILDING happened because I desperately wanted us to be doing cycle work in a way that FREES US…
…not in a way that reaffirms our indoctrination.
If there was just one thing from that space that I wish I could magically download into the brain of every liberation-centric person, it’s that colonial capitalist conditioning simply cannot exist inside a mind that is fully attuned to cycles.
It just dissolves. It’s not compatible. There’s no tussling or huge internal battle happening. It just… goes.
Cyclical consciousness is the antidote to colonial capitalist indoctrination, and radical cycle work is how we cultivate it.
To learn how to work with your cycling body (with womb or moon) as your very own personalised map OUT of your colonial indoctrination, and back INTO your wild humanity, join us inside REWILDING.
You will learn how to turn every season your body moves through into its own initiatory rite of passage.
Right now, there are only four spots left.
Let your body free you. ❤️
