Understanding Your Cycle | Back to the Basics of How to Understand & Optimize with Your Cycle

Author: Joelle Suess | Podcast Producer & Entrepreneur January 8, 2024 Duration: 23:37
In this episode of the Living in Sync Podcast, we are going back to the basics so if you are someone where cycle syncing is confusing and feels like you have to change everything in your life around your cycle... this is for you because I am going to break it down into 3 steps to understanding your cycle and know what your body is trying to tell you from the signs it gives you.  Today I'm diving deep into something that's really close to my heart – the importance of really getting to know and optimizing our menstrual cycles. I can't stress enough how crucial it is to tune into the hormonal fluctuations that happen within us and understand the impact they have on our mood, energy levels, and overall well-being. I'm going to get personal here and share some of my own battles with PMDD. It's been a tough journey, but it's made me realize just how significant hormones are when it comes to our mental health. I've picked up some handy strategies along the way, like habit stacking, which is all about syncing our daily activities with the different phases of our cycle. It's been a game-changer for me, and I really think tailoring our health approach to our individual needs is the way to go. I'd love for you guys to join in on this conversation. Let's keep it going over on Instagram and Patreon, where I'll be sharing even more about hormone health and the importance of being cycle-aware. Can't wait to connect with you all there!
