Hello, my name is Shayna. Welcome to this women meditation designed to help you manage period pain through mindfulness.
Our minds are incredibly powerful, and scientific studies have shown that awareness and mindfulness can significantly reduce our perception of pain.
This meditation invites you to begin viewing your period—and the sensations that arise within your body—through the lens of curiosity, presence, and love.
Let’s Get Started
Begin by finding a comfortable position to sit or lie down.
If you are experiencing pain or discomfort, I encourage you to prioritize your comfort.
If possible, lying down may be the most supportive option.

And throughout this meditation, if you need to move, stretch, or change positions, know that you are fully welcome to do so.

Beautiful.
