Things you can do to balance your hormones and support your body during your cycle:Taking into consideration of stress managementEnsuring that your exercise and nutrition are balancedPaying attention to your gut health, digestion, and bowel movementsFocusing on your magnesium intakePaying attention to anti-inflammatory foods
Memorable Quotes:
"Your body's one of the most important parts of eliminating toxins is having a healthy, regular bowel movement. So if we're constipated, not only are we not eliminating toxins effectively, but we can also be reabsorbing a lot of those excess estrogens that our body is trying to get rid of. So if you're dealing with constipation, address it." 
"When we are actually able to become more in tune with our body and understand that certain signs and symptoms specifically with our menstrual cycle can be huge indicators of different changes we need to make with our lifestyle and with our habits… We can reduce a lot of these symptoms, we can feel better overall. And realize that our menstrual cycle doesn't have to be this horrible ordeal once a month."

"Understanding that this holiday season does not have to be perfect. Even your year does not have to be perfect. Things don't have to be strict and rigid and 100% compliant in order for you to get a ton of benefits with your health and your fitness . . . that will lead to burnout. That will often lead you to a point where you are now exhausted. You're frustrated. You don't feel good mentally and physically."
