Intimacy and Sexual Health Education
for all bodies
supporting you in your reproductive and sexual health intentions
to achieve or avoid pregnancy naturally with cycle charting
Hi! My name is Liyanna (she/they)
As a Certified Fertility Awareness and Sex Educator I am passionate about empowering you to understand your body from the ground up. I specialize in reproductive health and sexuality education for people choosing to avoid or achieve pregnancy without the use of hormones.
As a farmer and seed steward, I apprentice to the cycles of the earth. These patterns show themselves in our own bodies and share with us so much about our physical and emotional health. I am dedicated to helping you establish the practice of cycle charting as a radical act of self-connection and decolonial healthcare.
People choosing non-hormonal contraception face a unique set of circumstances when communicating with others about their sexual needs and desires. My work focuses on supporting all sexual partners to understand fertility and pregnancy risk, the cycle of hormones and their effect on arousal and mental health, and to collaborate on a fulfilling and relaxed sexual connection.

What is
Cycle Charting?
Cycle Charting is a form of Fertility Awareness Method that includes a daily charting practices to track our cycle of fertility in order to achieve our health and reproductive intentions.
I teach two different methods: The Well Symptothermal Method and the Billings Ovulation Method
The Well Symptothermal Method uses basal body temperature and cervical fluid to track the fertility cycle of the female body.
The Billings Ovulation Method uses only observations of fluid discharge and sensation at the vulva to determine patterns of fertility and infertility.
Both these Fertility Awareness Methods can be used as a non-hormonal contraceptive, as a support for natural conception, and as a tool for assessing reproductive and whole-person health. Your cycle communicates directly about the wellness of your entire body. We can work together to determine which Fertility Awareness Method is the best fit for you!
Learning to chart your cycle can support in the identification and treatment of many common experiences such as:
painful menstruation, irregular menstruation, difficulty conceiving, low libido, thyroid imbalance, adrenal fatigue, gut inflammation and food allergies, PCOS, endometriosis, insomnia, and so much more.
