Riley - Autism and the Menstrual Cycle Free Discussion Group - Online and Monthly!

Please note that this group is online and open to those who could benefit from it, all over the world.

Autistic people benefit from consistency and predictability, so the ever changing rhythms of a woman’s body can be one more overwhelming challenge to navigate in a world full of overwhelming challenges.

But if we become students of our menstrual cycles, we can better learn how they operate, and what we need at each phase. In turn, this knowledge can help us heal from burnout, and help us protect ourselves against the severity of future burnouts.

Come together in community with those who share the experiences of autism and menstruation in an opportunity to learn from each other, and to be seen, known, and valued.

At each meeting, we join on Zoom to read an approximately 15 minute excerpt from Wild Power by Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer, published by Hay House UK.

Audio version plays, and the Kindle version displays simultaneously, for all to follow along. Afterwards, the group opens for discussion and sharing.

Please leave 90 minutes; the meeting length depends on the size of the group and the number of shares.

Maximum group size is 15.

Cameras on or off is okay.

All those who menstruate or have menstruated are welcome.

Whether you’ve known you’re autistic for a long time, you’ve just newly discovered that you’re autistic, or you’re in a limbo space of wondering if you might be autistic at all, you are very welcome here.

Thank you to Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer of the Red School for permission to include the book.
