Her Blood is Gold

In Her Blood Is Gold, Lara Owen pioneers a new understanding of menstruation as a potential source of balance and wisdom. Now considered a classic in the fields of menstrual studies and women's spirituality, Her Blood Is Gold has been updated twice and translated into several languages.

She has worked for global institutions, universities, and the third sector as a consultant and researcher on menstruation, menopause, and women's wellbeing and rights more broadly.
