    Ep 12 • How to Smooth Out A Rough Luteal Phase | Practical & Spiritual Guidance for Premenstrual Tension

    A rambly albeit helpful exploration of (1) why the luteal phase can feel rough AF, and (2) practical AND a lil more woo-woo ways that we can support ourselves to have the a more smooth, manageable premenstrual phase. I emphasise the importance of working with these 5 categories: Nutrition, Movement, Sleep, Light, Nervous System Regulation - because if there are any imbalances here, they're likely to impact your premenstrual vibe greatly. Work on these foundations first because seeking any "cure-all" or magic fixes for your PMS struggles. The practical tips are after the 32-ish-minute mark, with lots of helpful hints & concepts woven throughout.

    Ep 11 • Reacting to My Emotional (Menstrual) Breakdown • Emotional Release During Menstruation • Why You Should Scream Into A Pillow

    Probably my most vulnerable episode so far, I take you behind the scenes of a raw emotional release from the start of my last menstrual cycle that I video-recorded. I also cover: The importance of physical & emotional release during your menstrual phase My history of being a sensitive child who cried often, and some stories of my upbringing and how adults reacted to my emotions Commentary on my nervous system & emotional state during an acute mental health flare-up How screaming into a pillow can help you process deep emotional imprints, and allow for a thorough release, even if the emotions are subconscious Going over the energetics of the menstrual phase & periods, and how we must first let go of what's holding us back, before calling forth what we desire in our lives. May this episode be of benefit to you - above all else, I hope you feel a bit more normal and a little less alone in feeling big feelings of your own (whether you're menstruating or not!).

    Ep 3 • Does the Pill Deplete Nutrients? A Deep Dive into Nutrient Deficiencies & Hormonal Birth Control

    She's a chunky one today! I go deep into the big wide world of nutritional medicine, covering why nutrients are crucial for health, how our body relies on nutrients for hormone balance (and overall wellbeing), and how the oral contraceptive pill can cause nutritional depletions or worsen existing deficiencies. There's a lot, but I hope I managed to clarify the complexity to this topic, AND that I've offered you something to think about. Maybe you're feeling the nudge to improve your relationship with food & have a new found appreciation for nutrition!

    Ep 2 • Is Resistance to Rest Causing Your Period Problems?

    Today, I wanted to talk about something frequently on my mind, that I witness in myself, loved ones, and clients: resistance to rest. In our menstrual cycle, there are times when naturally, our bodies desire to slow down, go inward & contract. These times - usually in the luteal & menstrual phases - are so important for processing emotions, trauma, limiting beliefs and highlighting where in our lives we need to take action or make adjustments. What happens when we consistently 'push through' these default times for rest and resist slowing down? What are we communicating with our bodies? Personally, and from my clinical perspective, I see this as a huge underlying factor for period pain, pre-menstrual syndrome and other symptoms of hormonal imbalance. This easily adds up to a much bigger picture of 'unwellness', when we consider that each phase of our cycle influences the next, and each cycle influences the next, and so on. It's time to break these societal patterns & make friends with slowing down, stillness and rest. Our health & hormones depend on it. GET MY HOLISTIC CYCLE TRACKING GUIDE HERE ANY THOUGHTS?
