The third of the relaunch – welcome! On this episode, the Sisters of Flow are talking about menstrual products. These are beyond the usual pads, tampons and cups. We are going to look at this multi-billion dollar industry in a different light. There’s a new machine you can wear to stop your period pain. China is manufacturing its own brand of tampons. Also, there’s an oxygenating pad now! Just what in the world will this do?   Feed your period with pumpkin seeds! Fall is so close, but learn how these benefit you year-round.   Special thanks to our Flow Friday Fact partner, the Womb Sanctuary, A Sacred Place for Women to be Seen, Heard and Loved!
