We are so interwoven with the outer elements surrounding us that we find it difficult to find time to pay attention to the problems we have buried deep inside of ourselves. While we are physically bleeding out the old, we can find that this time is appropriate for the cleansing of the spirit as well. With inner reflection we can dig to the depths required to work out problems and issues that get pushed down to the bottom of our souls. It is very helpful if we can tune into our bodies to release negative energy and cleanse our spirits, readying ourselves for another productive cycle. Sex and Bleeding Multiple orgasms are easier to reach for many women that have mild menstrual periods.
Many women report a feeling of being totally open, full and in their power while menstruating.
We know that we are extra sensitive during our menses. The stereotype of women being cranky and short tempered at this time is one reason we have been indoctrinated to avoid sexual intercourse while bleeding. Realize that sensitivity can work both ways. While speaking with women on the subject I have found that women that are comfortable with their bodies and bodily functions are more apt to enjoy a heightened sexual experience during their menses. Menstruation was viewed as holy and sacred in matriarchal theologies.
