Empower Your Period Journey: Say Goodbye to Pain and Discomfort

Is your monthly cycle filled with pain, discomfort, and frustration? You're not alone! Many women experience period problems that leave them feeling let down by conventional medicine. But fear not, because you have the power to take control of your menstrual health and find natural solutions that work for you.

The first step to empowering your period journey is understanding that you have options. It's time to break free from the belief that painful periods are just a normal part of menstruating. You deserve to live your life without the agony and inconvenience that often accompanies menstruation.

One natural solution to consider is herbal remedies. Mother Nature has provided us with an abundance of plants that can help alleviate period pain. From cramp bark to ginger, these herbs have been used for centuries to soothe menstrual discomfort. By mindfully incorporating them into your routine, you can experience relief without relying on synthetic medications.

Another avenue to explore is the power of nutrition. What we eat plays a significant role in our overall health, and our menstrual cycle is no exception. By incorporating nutrient-rich foods into your diet, such as leafy greens, whole grains, and omega-3 fatty acids, you can support your body's natural hormonal balance and reduce period pain.

Additionally, lifestyle modifications can go a long way in improving your menstrual health. Regular exercise, stress reduction techniques like meditation or yoga, and getting enough sleep can all contribute to a healthier cycle. These changes may seem small, but they can make a world of difference in how you experience your period.

Remember, you are not alone in this journey. Many women have found natural solutions to their period problems and have experienced a transformation in their menstrual health. By embracing the power within you, you can say goodbye to pain and discomfort, and hello to a happier, more empowered period.

Of course, each one of these options cater to your physical body, which is only one part of the four-part Holistic Being. The Holistic Body is made up of the Physical, Mental, Intuitive, and Emotional elements. While it is helpful to intervene with the physical body--we feel better because we are actually "doing" something--you will speed up your shift to pain-free, PMS-free, consistent cycles when you incorporate interventions with all four parts. 

So, take the first step today. Start researching herbal remedies, experimenting with your diet, and exploring lifestyle changes that work for you.

Unlock the Secrets to a Harmonious Menstrual Cycle: Find Regularity and Predictability

For many women, an irregular or unpredictable menstrual cycle can be a source of frustration and anxiety. It can make planning daily activities, social engagements, and even vacations a challenge. Thankfully, there are natural solutions that can help restore balance to your cycle.

First and foremost, it's important to understand that a regular menstrual cycle is a reflection of overall hormonal balance in your body. Hormonal imbalances can be caused by various factors such as stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, or even certain medical conditions. By addressing these underlying factors, you can unlock the secrets to a harmonious menstrual cycle.

But how do we know where to begin with the underlying factors?

• A personal trainer will give us exercises,
• a biorhythms specialist will tell us what to do and when to do it on a minute-by-minute schedule, 
• a gut therapist will analyze our evacuations on a regular basis to modify our vitamins, supplements, herbs, and diet, 
• a hormonal therapist will kick start and slow down various processes in our body to force it into a normal cycle--very similar to how birth control works, but a lot less harmful. 

Finding menstrual balance just through the discussed avenues above could take us years to achieve and there are so many other ways that aren't mentioned here. The problem with all of these options is that they are not allowing the body to heal itself. The body can and the clients at Steady + Free can attest to that. The shift to awesome periods depends on the micro-adjustments we make in our lifestyle and the way we inform those adjustments is through inner knowing. 

If the way to adjust is via inner knowing then shouldn't I already know how to shift to better periods?

Yes. 

You do know how. You, like many of us, have been conditioned to bypass your inner knowing (this is the Intuitive Body) to defer to physical interventions for healing--that is the foundation of western medicine. There is nothing wrong with medicine except that doctors have yet to offer a way to end period problems. 

There are ways to rediscover your inner knowing so that you can take the right action, moment-by-moment in your life to find your distinct end to period pain, to consistent menstrual cycles, and to PMS-free cycles. 

Another natural approach to achieving a harmonious cycle is tracking your menstrual cycle. "That which is measured improves, that which is measured and reported improves exponentially"--Karl Pearson. Cycle tracking--this is an intervention via the Mental Body--can be done through various methods, such as keeping a menstrual calendar or using smartphone apps designed for this purpose. By tracking your cycle, you can identify patterns and gain a better understanding of your body's unique rhythm. This knowledge empowers you to plan ahead and make informed decisions about your activities and self-care during different phases of your cycle.

Each Menstrual Phase has a specific profile for the four elements of the Holistic Body as well as a variety of characteristics that encourage certain ways of being and discourage other ways of being. It would behoove you to know these elements and this article can take care of that! 

Remember, achieving a regular and predictable menstrual cycle is not an overnight process. It requires patience, self-care, and a holistic approach to your overall well-being. By making positive changes to your lifestyle, and exploring holistic interventions, such as tracking your cycle, you can unlock the secrets to a harmonious menstrual cycle and regain control of your menstrual health.

Embrace Your Inner Goddess: Overcome Heavy Flow and Prolonged Periods

For many of us, heavy flow and prolonged periods can leave us feeling drained and disconnected from our femininity. But there are natural solutions that can help us overcome these challenges and embrace our inner goddess once again!

Heavy flow during menstruation, known as menorrhagia, can be physically and emotionally exhausting. It can interfere with our daily lives, make us feel weak, and even lead to anemia if left untreated. Conventional medicine may offer hormonal therapies or invasive procedures, but these options often come with unwanted side effects or risks. That's where natural alternatives come in to save the day!

One natural solution to address heavy flow is the use of herbal remedies. Certain herbs, such as yarrow, shepherd's purse, and ginger, have been traditionally used to regulate menstrual flow and reduce heavy flow. These herbs can be taken in the form of teas, tinctures, or supplements, and their gentle yet effective properties can help restore balance to our menstrual cycles.

The difficulty with herbal relief--because a remedy would actually solve the problem and would not have to be repeated--is that you become obligated to use that relief. Are wombs are quite elegant in their design and are not meant to be dependent on outside herbs and supplements, so just as it is true with inconsistent menstrual cycles, that adjusting "how we be" in the world changes things, this same adjustment shifts our flow from heavy to normal or mild. It's important to listen to our bodies, honor our needs, and create a nurturing environment for our inner goddess to thrive--this is holistic intervention. 

Prolonged periods, can leave us feeling like our menstruation never ends. This can be frustrating, disruptive, and even affect our self-esteem. The long-term consequences of such stress will then compel even more severe menstrual diagnoses or ancillary illnesses. 

There are natural solutions to address prolonged periods like eating food rich in vitamins C and K:

• leafy greens,
• citrus fruits,
• berries;

or taking these vitamins directly. 

But of course, the other option is to live your life according to the distinct holistic wellness expectations that are natural for people born with a uterus. When we accept that we do not operate on the same biological schedule as people born without a uterus, taking care of our whole selves, including minimizing our flow becomes a lot easier. 

Heavy flow is a symptom of menstrual imbalance. Shifting from menstrual imbalance to menstrual balance is a lot easier than all the steps needed--some outlined above--to reduce the volume of menstrual shedding. 

Five Solutions to Heavy Flow

We discussed the options at length, so now let's summarize our findings so that you can start ending heavy flow now!

1. Understand the Root Causes: It's important to recognize that heavy flow and prolonged periods are often symptoms of an underlying hormonal imbalance or other health issues. Rather than simply masking the symptoms with medication, let's focus on addressing the root causes which are easily discovered when we nurture all four parts of the Holistic Being. 

2. Nourish Your Four Holistic Bodies: Your body is a temple, and it deserves to be treated with love and care.

• Physical: Incorporating a nutrient-rich diet can do wonders for your menstrual health. Focus on foods that are rich in iron, such as leafy greens and lean meats, to replenish your body's stores and combat fatigue caused by heavy flow. Additionally, consider incorporating foods high in vitamin C, like citrus fruits, to aid in iron absorption.
• Mental: Say "yes" less and "no" more. Use critical thinking when making decisions and give yourself time to pause and really consider the best response instead of letting yourself be pressured by outside, superficial metrics. 
• Emotional: Tell the truth. Most of us are lying because we are people-pleasing. "The road to hell is paved with good intentions" is an adage that has survived centuries because it is true. 
• Intuitive: When you get a brilliant nudge, hunch, or inner-knowing, act on it instead of qualifying it with permission from others. We have powerful contributions that the world expects us to offer. Brilliance is rewarded and often times it comes seemingly out of nowhere. 

3. Explore Herbal Remedies: Nature has gifted us with a treasure trove of herbs that can support menstrual health. Herbs such as yarrow, nettle, and shepherd's purse have been traditionally used to reduce heavy shedding and regulate menstrual flow. Consult with a qualified herbalist or naturopath to find the right herbal remedies for your specific needs, and remember that these are short-term fixes. Do not create a reliance on outside substances because it retards the body's self healing process--which is much more effective and efficient than herbs. 

4. Consider Supplements: Sometimes, our bodies need an extra boost to find balance. Supplements like vitamin B6, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids have shown promise in reducing heavy flow and alleviating menstrual discomfort. As always, consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating any new supplements into your routine. Or forego supplements completely and take the zero-risk option of changing your lifestyle to accommodate your innate superpowers as a person born with a uterus. 

5. Practice Self-Care: Our menstrual health is deeply intertwined with our overall well-being. Stress and emotional imbalance can exacerbate heavy flow and prolonged periods. Prioritize self-care activities according to each Menstrual Phase, for example: in Menstruation you might engage in activities that promote relaxation and emotional well-being, such as meditation, yoga, or spending time in nature. By nurturing all four holistic bodies with the intention of practicing self-care, you can create an environment that promotes healthy menstrual cycles.
