🩸 Vulvani 🩸

Vulvani is a menstrual education online platform created by Britta and Jamin. Their goal is “to create a world in which an open and relaxed approach to menstruation in all societies is possible and in which all people can manage their menstruation in a self-determined, environmentally friendly and above all dignified way”. 🌳

🔤 They created a growing menstrual ABC in which we can find short and easy explanations of colloquial expressions and medical terminology relating to menstruation.

🌏 On the platform we can also find a very interesting series of interviews which aims to show the diversity of menstrual experiences in the world.

💻 They also created a digital education program called Vulvani Academy. On their website you can get online courses and ebooks to learn more about menstruation, sexuality and female health.

📷 And to help people and organization fight the period taboo they created the Vuvani Gallery, a free stock photo on period related topics. They well understood that it is difficult to find good menstruation related free photos, so they satisfied that need. What is more they make their photos with preferably real menstrual blood! 🩸

🙏🏾 So thank you Vulvani and well done for your awesome project !

⭕ Have you ever heard of seed cycling? 🌰

It is a technique of using seeds as a food supplement to help regulate the hormonal cycle. 🕙

The seeds used are pumpkin, flax, sesame and sunflower seeds. They are eaten raw and ground every day. Apparently whole seeds are not fully digested by the stomach, and do not enable all the nutrients to be extracted. The seeds can be eaten alone or added to a dish or drink. 🥣

In general, seed cycling is done in two phases.

🌸 During phase 1, which coincides with the follicular phase, 1 tablespoon of ground pumpkin seeds and 1 tablespoon of ground flax seeds should be eaten each day. This phase begins on the first day of the menstrual cycle, i.e. the first day of menstruation, and ends the day before ovulation.
It is believed that pumpkin and flaxseed help to increase estrogen during the follicular phase.

🌻 During phase 2, which coincides with the luteal phase, 1 tablespoon of ground sunflower seeds and 1 tablespoon of ground sesame seeds should be eaten each day. This phase begins on the day of ovulation and ends the day before the first day of the next period.
It is believed that sunflower and sesame seeds help increase progesterone levels during the luteal phase.

Have you ever tried seed cycling? Now that we've told you a bit more, are you tempted? 😃

🧐 Stereotypes

📹 Today we share with you a super cool video of the ADOSEN. In this video we see a class of middle school students and a teacher of Moral and Civic Education discussing stereotypes. A scene that seems really real because you can imagine all this happening in any middle school class (not really at the moment because of the lockdown but you know what we mean).
This video invites us to question and reflect on stereotypes and perceptions.

We won't tell you more! Just watch it! 🩸
