Reclaiming The Cycle: You & Food A brunch-forward, shame-free workshop exploring menstrual cycles, intuitive nourishment, and body trust through education & conversation.
About this Event

Join us for a warm, brunchy, shame-free workshop exploring the relationship between menstrual cycles, food, and body awareness.

So often, both our cycles and our eating habits are framed through rules, restriction, and “shoulds.” This gathering is an invitation to do something different — to reconnect with your body’s cues, needs, and wisdom through education, conversation, and shared nourishment.

This is not about perfect cycle syncing or eating “the right way.”
It’s about listening to your body, honoring cravings, and releasing shame.


What we’ll explore together
  • A clear, accessible overview of the four phases of the menstrual cycle
  • How appetite, energy, mood, and cravings naturally shift across the cycle
  • Intuitive nourishment and body-based decision making
  • Guided snack tastings with reflection and discussion
  • Permission-centered approaches to food, cycles, and self-trust

What to expect
  • A relaxed, conversational format (no PowerPoint)
  • Brunch-style nourishment provided by Nourished Folks
  • Thoughtful discussion, reflection prompts, and community connection
  • A welcoming space rooted in curiosity, compassion, and education

Who this is for
  • Anyone with a menstrual cycle (past or present)
  • People curious about intuitive eating and body literacy
  • Folks wanting a more grounded, shame-free relationship with food and cycles
  • No prior knowledge required
