About
Hari Aum,
I am a mentor, teacher, and guide devoted to supporting women to live in deeper relationship with their bodies, their cycles, and their inner intelligence.
For fourteen years, I used hormonal contraceptives and during this time, I experienced a range of physical and emotional symptoms including chronic arthritis, heart palpitations, digestive issues, reduced libido, and depression. I also endured repeated abnormal cervical screenings over eighteen months, which eventually led to surgery to remove pre-cancerous cells.
By 2016, my health had reached rock bottom and my young marriage had ended. The life I had carefully been creating had crumbled away, leaving me feeling as though I had lost my sense of self and identity. Facing this crossroads, I made the decision to stop taking the Pill, travel, and explore alternative ways of living to restore my health and wellbeing, and to reconnect with myself on a deeper level.
During this time, I explored meditation, yoga, plant medicine, sound healing, reiki and fasting. All of these supported me deeply, and they are modalities I continue to work with to this day. However, the one practice that revealed aspects of myself that none of the others could was Menstrual Cycle Awareness. Learning to understand what my body was communicating, and being able to put supportive self-care practices in place, was truly transformative.
Menstrual Cycle Awareness transformed my relationship with my body, guiding me back to listening rather than overriding. As I learned to meet my cycle with care, my menstrual health stabilised and long-held symptoms softened. It also revealed the cyclical nature of my emotional life, supporting clearer boundaries and greater steadiness. Over time, this practice reawakened an embodied feminine intelligence, rooted in honouring my body’s rhythms and letting them shape how I move through the world.
In recent years, I supported my mother during the final months of her life. Accompanying her through illness, uncertainty and death deepened my understanding of care, presence and devotion, and strengthened my commitment to women’s work. It taught me what it truly means to stay, to listen, and to walk alongside another at the thresholds of life.
This is the ground from which I guide.
With love,
Soraya
