A unique course for mothers and daughters covering everything you both need to know about the adolescent menstrual cycle. We discuss the topics below and offer both medical and holistic viewpoints and research, so that you can make informed decisions on how to address any issues that surface around gynaecological health in teenage years.

The course is suitable for girls who are just entering puberty as well as those who may have their period for a number of years (from the ages of 11-16). It is an invaluable resource for mothers and carers of teen girls. We recommend watching it by yourself at first and then watching it together with your daughter.

What you will learn

  • The Physiology of Puberty – everything your daughter needs to know
  • Period Problems – painful, irregular and heavy periods
  • The Oral Contraceptive Pill – an in-depth presentation on how Geraldine has used this in her clinic over the years
  • Sanitary Products – we cover all the available options for your girl
  • Stress – how can we use diet and lifestyle to mitigate the effects of stress
  • Yoga Postures – help to optimise the energy flow in the pelvis and reproductive organs
  • Breathing Meditation – a technique to help your teen manage her mind
  • Guided Relaxation – bringing balance to body, mind and emotions

as well as many more insights and practical tips that Geraldine and Paula have accumulated over the past 20+ years

The course covers a range of topics related to the adolescent menstrual cycle, including an overview on the physiology of puberty, painful periods, heavy periods, irregular periods, the oral contraceptive pill, a variety of different types of sanitary products, stress and its effect on the cycle, what is considered "normal" and when you need to seek medical advice, and helpful tips and strategies to address common problems.
The course contains over 4 hrs 30 mins of video material. We tried to keep the main course videos around 20 mins in duration. There are a couple of short ones - e.g., period pants and the moon cup. The bonus Yoga videos are 35 mins in duration. We deliberately kept them concise so that you and your daughter can fit in one practical video each day. The Yoga posture (Moon Salutation) video is 11 mins, the meditation on the breath is 12 mins and the relaxation is 13 mins. Doing all three may be possible for you both some days, really helping to bring about a greater sense of calm and ease in your day.
All medical advice contained in our course is up to date and evidence based. However as research continues, advice may change. At the end of some videos we have included some concerning symptoms which should prompt medical consultation. However you should always seek medical advice if you are concerned about your daughter’s health.
