CIC & Workshops

Changing lives one cycle at a time — because mental health is hormonal health.

Celia’s Story

Mission and values of the CIC

Understanding My Body Through My Mind CIC aims to educate, empower, and support individuals — particularly women and those affected by female reproductive health conditions — in understanding the connection between their mental and physical health. We focus on raising awareness of underrepresented and often misunderstood conditions such as PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder), supporting holistic wellbeing, and promoting self-advocacy through psychoeducation, workshops, and community engagement.

To achieve this, our aims are to:

Deliver accessible, culturally aware workshops and resources that foster emotional resilience and body awareness

Break down stigma around menstrual health, mental health, neurodivergence and PMDD in particular through storytelling, education, and open dialogue

Build a compassionate community that amplifies underrepresented and underserved voices and advocates for lasting, systemic change in healthcare

Through live events, digital resources, and powerful conversations on our podcast, we create spaces for healing, growth, and connection grounded in lived experience, psychological insight, and creative expression.
