Naya, Death & Birth Doula ""I wish I could gift this book to my thirteen-year-old self so that she could accept the nature of her cycle, understand the apothecary of plants around her, and love herself and her partners better. Even at 31, Moon Blood has helped me do all these things."" Katie Rose Criscuolo, Songstress ""In her gripping account of her healing journey, Aviva skillfully explores the complexities of holding deep compassion for herself alongside compassion for everyone she encounters-even through sexual trauma and heartache. Her stories beautifully capture the powerful intersections of tenderness meeting honesty, understanding meeting accountability, and magic meeting groundedness. Her capacity for nuanced, holistic self-reflection makes Moon Blood a moving invitation for discovery and healing."" Rosalee, Early Childhood Educator"
