Your initiation into and through womanhood
Enrollment is now closed. Join the waitlist!
The Blood Mysteries School is a one-of-a-kind and comprehensive education that blends the sacred and science of the seasons of womanhood.
Do you feel the deep calling to center yourself in rich womb wisdom and share it with the women around you?
You crave to go above and beyond in your facilitator practice as a lighthouse of wisdom for your community outside the medical system.
You are excited to discover and share in the depths and rhythms of your womb and long to create a life that honors your cyclical rhythms.
You know your body and blood are the fertile ground for living an inspired, radically authentic, and powerful life.
Do you dream of being the medicine woman in your community?
Imagine healing 10,000 years of misogyny and learning to love your mind, body, and blood.
Embarking on this journey has the potential to heal your lineage forwards and backwards.
It’s an opportunity to reconnect with the blood mysteries that make you uniquely and beautifully female on this planet.
Imagine taking back your inner power and self-respect by living in your true cyclical nature.
This ancient wisdom and knowledge is your birthright and your responsibility to heal so that it’s passed down through your lineage.
Women are indoctrinated into viewing their hormones as pathology through pap smears, hormonal contraceptives, and the tools of allopathy.
We were not taught that it is possible to actually heal. We are groomed to defer our autonomy to medical professionals.
Female physiology is unique--it's not to be dictated to or pathologized by men.
You may already serve women. Maybe you host women's circles. Maybe you serve women in birth and postpartum.
What about the women in your community slipping through the cracks?
Women struggling with infertility, endometriosis, PCOS, PMDD, fibroids, and other womb imbalances that are pathologized without root cause treatment.
Do you know how to serve them?
To support their bodies so that they can
truly heal?
"When I signed up to join The Blood Mysteries School with Kristin + Nancy I really didn't realise just how much this journey would impact me personally. The depth of information they shared had me *truly* understanding my female body and energetics for the first time in my life. I would highly recommend this training to any woman - whether you are considering sharing this work with other women, or even if you just want to apply what you have learnt to yourself there is so much wisdom in here for everyone.

The education that most women didn’t receive, but that all of us deserve:
This isn’t your basic fertility awareness program.
This school provides you with tools to heal yourself, practices to embody your womb wisdom, and opportunities to practice sharing your unique voice. We leave no stone unturned, including technical teachings about our hormones, herbal wisdom, the archetypal energies of our cycles, tools for leading women's groups and ceremonies, and so much more!
This is a comprehensive, rooted approach to transforming your life and teaching practice.
The Blood Mysteries School blends the sacred and the science of the seasons of womanhood. We'll journey through the map of the menstrual cycle, and you will leave feeling confident to guide other women along this path.
This is the foundational education you won't find anywhere else.
This is a journey into your own depths, following the seasons of the cycle and the related archetypes.
It’s a spiritual journey and a living inquiry into our sacred blood.
Join us if you’re ready to learn about your cycles in an embodied, hormonally intelligent, and spiritually rooted way so you can be a nurturing leader and womb wisdom educator in your community.

- Working with women is your life’s work.

Meet Your Guides
I’m a women’s coach and circle leader, shamanic facilitator, sacred sound therapist, birth keeper, and mother of 3. I am a ceremonial leader in my community and teach women and coming-of-age girls about the power of their cycles. I use my gifts of voice, sound, sensitivity, and connection to spirit to guide women from all around the world to awaken their ancient deep feminine wisdom, embody the Wise Woman within and live in truth and power.
I’m an acupuncturist and herbalist, somatic sex educator, and mama of three. I work with women across the womb cycle continuum to claim agency and find lasting healing and nourishment. Healing my own menstrual challenges was my initiation into the blood mysteries and sharing womb wisdom. My own journey and my studies of East Asian Medicine, functional medicine, tantra, and somatic healing inspire my teaching.
"The Blood Mysteries School absolutely changed my life. I went from knowing nothing at all about my cycle and very little about my body or reproductive health to feeling fully embodied in my knowledge of my sacred and amazing female body. The classes themselves were so engaging that they felt more like women’s circles, full of re-membering and grounded transmissions of ancient wisdom. The bond between us students was, and is, nothing short of magical. I am forever changed by this incredible experience and am so grateful to be able to share the wisdom I gained from the Blood Mysteries School with my community."

Essential Monthly Workshops:
Body Literacy and the Fertility Awareness Method
The Fertility Awareness Method allows you to truly master body literacy and own your fertility. Here you will learn all the basics of getting started with FAM so you can learn in it your own body first and teach it if you’d like! There will also be real examples of basal body temperature charts to get practice interpreting different cycle patterns.
Yoni Power, Embodied Anatomy of Arousal
The Blood Mysteries would not be complete without addressing feminine sexuality. Here you’ll learn about the anatomy of pleasure and how female arousal is distinct from male arousal. This is an opportunity to transform layers of inherited sexual or menstrual shame. Pleasure is medicine, and during this workshop, you’ll have an opportunity to reclaim the lost thread of feminine arousal, desire, and pleasure.
Being a Guide of Womb Wisdom for Coming-of-Age Girls
One of the most powerful and supportive acts we can take for our daughters is to initiate them into Menarche as the rite of passage that it is meant to be. The loss of wisdom and support for this process has had tragic consequences for our families and societies, and it’s time for that to change. Teaching young girls requires a completely different approach to make the material accessible and understandable.
For years, we have been honing this process with groups of girls, learning about what works and what doesn’t. In this workshop, we’ll share a teaching format and process as well as a beautiful workbook to facilitate your teaching of this material to coming-of-age girls. We’ll show you ways to present the material so girls don’t get defensive or “grossed-out.” This aspect is so important to the awakening of the next generation. This workshop will help you to be the lighthouse you are meant to be for your daughter and/ or young girls in your community.
Bringing the Blood Mysteries Forward to other Women
Are you destined to lead women’s circles? Or perhaps you’re already leading them but want to make them even richer with this menstrual cycle awareness. You'll learn how to structure your circles so that women can absorb this information in the best possible way and how to add a touch of magic to your circles with shamanic tools.
In this workshop, we’ll be sharing our best practices, tools, and resources for sharing this womb wisdom with adult women.
Included digital workbooks in this course:
1) Integrating and facilitating this material specific to young girls.
2) The Blood Mysteries School Workbook for integration during the school and to be used as teaching material upon graduating.
3) Beautifully designed Fertility Awareness Tracking sheets that you can use yourself and with your clients.

Enroll in the Blood Mysteries School
"The Blood Mysteries School did what I’d hoped and gave me tools to help my fertility clients in a profound and tailored way. However, it also provided a deep sense of personal growth and community that was life changing and unexpected. This program is unique in its content and format, and Nancy and Kristin are incredible teachers and guides. I highly recommend this school to any women’s health care practitioner, and really, any woman."
—Sparrow Valdetarro Harrington
"The Blood Mysteries School deepened and enriched my relationship to myself in a way I could not have imagined and did not know I needed. It completely changed my outlook on health, provided me with hands-on tools, made me reconsider how I want to participate in the world, gave me a wonderful community, and made me feel so good."
–Jordan Frye
"The Blood Mysteries School is so much more than a deep dive into hormonal physiology and teaching women how to thrive throughout our cycles— this sacred offering exudes the healing potency of a 4-month-long, continuous women’s circle. Nancy and Kristin are perfectly balanced teachers who weave ceremony and science, making ancient tradition accessible to our modern lives. Through ceremonially imbued body literacy, they guided me home to my true essence, in wholeness."
