The Expression of Free Bleeding


A normal day, as always, I was reviewing my Instagram account when I found a topic very interesting. It was the expression free bleeding, this refers to the choice of living the menstruation without using any bleeding collection product.

I had heard this expression before, but I only knew one way of practicing it: 1) as a form of menstrual activism, letting blood flow in order to make menstruation visible and to question the way in which it is treated in our society and the place that occupies in it.

The other way of practicing the expression of free bleeding that I did not know and that caught my attention was that of 2) listen to our body to know the moment in which it needs to evacuate the blood and then do it in the place that is decided. This way of menstruation impressed me because historically, the biggest problem of menstruation has been the inability to control it, this way of feeling it makes it amazing. We just have to learn to listen to our beautiful menstruating body.

Tell me. Did you know the expression of free bleeding?

    I have to admit that I had never heard of "free bleeding", although I had heard that we should listen to our body. It seems a very interesting topic, and I would like to investigate more about it

    Wow! I knew about the first way to practicing but the second one shooks me, not in a bad way of course. I think is so beautiful that we can be able to listen to our body and have a friendly and healthy relation with it.

    Although I can not say "I know what it feels like" I completely agree with deconstructing the prejudices on the subject

Couple Therapy

Hello to all my readers. Today I will tell you a little about what I have planned for my future. There are few things that I am sure of, this is due to how unstable that the people say be the world of work. I am studying psychology, at first I was thinking about dedicating myself to education, however, as the semesters went by I realized that I was even more interested in the clinical area. What enhances this decision is the interest in me to help and make sex education to people who have problems in this topic. After becoming a psychologist, my idea is to work in a public health center, and then take courses related to sexuality. I also thought about taking couples therapy courses, since sexuality goes hand in hand with problems that can cause a relational level. What I will do in my work will be to detect problems. The reason for consultation of the couple does not always correspond to the real basic problem, that is why my job is to understand their relational dynamics and...

The Internet

Before using the Internet, I had a computer that only used it to play with my brother. Then, over time (10 years) accompanied my senior cousin to a computer course and where we clearly taught to use the internet, everything I learned there was very easy for me. With time in school we also had computer courses, and as more resources arrived at school the internet was becoming more important in our lives. We no longer watched DVD movies, but we looked for them on the Internet, we no longer shared music via bluetooth, but we listened to it from YouTube. On the Internet we can find everything we wanted, books, music, movies, funny videos, online games, etc. So it became something everyday for my friends and family. I started with social networks since I was 11, and until today I haven't stopped having one. I have not stopped checking the possible notifications that I have daily or worse, every moment. Whenever they ask me what I see on TV I answer that nothing, and that I don...

My subsequent studies

Hi. Today I will talk about what I would like to study in a few more years, when I have my degree in psychology. As a result of so much sexual violence towards children and adolescents, this has become a problem at the social level that involves varied aspects: the judicial, the legislative. Also health, and very important, in my opinion is mental health. Since it has devastating consequences for those who suffer from it. Studies have written about the consequences in the short and long term both in terms of psychopathology and self-esteem, identity, among others. Many times sexual assaults have an effect on the problems of adult sex life. That is why I would like to dedicate myself as a future psychologist to reparatory assistance, to the development of preventive programs of sexual aggression and to specialized intervention in these cases. So there are two topics that I would like to study in the future, on the one hand, sexual therapy, and on the other some postgraduat...
