Four Ways to Make Your Menstrual Cycle More Eco-Friendly
A woman’s menstrual cycle is a time of deep connection. She is rooted in connection to the ebbs and flows of her body and the universe. But after years of stigma, shame & misinformation - we’re more removed from it than ever before. And modern “hygiene” products take a time that’s traditionally sacred and turn it into a creator of massive waste and toxic chemicals.

Little T
Unlike Big T far away in the forest, Little T lived in a dish with some ground to hold her straight, atop a table where strange monsters took care of her, yet ate so many of her kin. She leaned to one side as her tiny trunk was still growing, and her branches were learning to find their balancing act. Her leaves were often crying for no reason, but reasons were too numerous to enumerate. She spent her days looking at the small jungle across, not knowing that beyond those few trees lay a huge shopping mall, with trees in every corner and store, all of them long dead, transformed into objects, some even admired by the same monsters who took care of her, as if she mattered at all.

woven
Textiles are foundational to the human experience. Cultures all over the world have their own unique practice of dyeing fiber and weaving. Woven textiles sometimes take the form of clothing, sometimes rugs or blankets, baskets or nets. I like to think that we are all descendants of weavers. There is something very human and very grounding about using our hands to craft something in the same way that humans have been crafting things for thousands of years.

Big T
At the top of the trees’ ever-changing world, Big T was a giant. He was never in competition with his friends for the crown, he never even sought it. It was bestowed to his tallness when all his friends looked at each other, rustled their leaves in agreement, and declared him to be Big T, the biggest tree in their forest. Most of them had passed the four-hundred-year mark which they measured underground, with all big roots recounting their stories passed on every century like a heirloom, except that this one was invisible to any eyes, being chemical in nature and felt at a special middle point where the trunk meets the ground before descending towards Earth’s core.

Medium T
Medium T was a happy tree because he happened to look like a male human, with two legs in the ground and thus three trunks, two arms raised towards the sky and thus two branches, several fingers at the end of each arm and thus several twigs, and even a face with a crown on top and thus additional sprigs. His resemblance to a human turned him into a celebrity, providing him with considerably more than the usual fifteen minutes of fame many humans aspired to have sometimes at the expense of everything else. Medium T was neither big or small. Medium T was medium-built but he lacked a prick. Moreover, he was not alone since another tree, somewhat similar to him lived close to him but looked more like a female human.
