Periods can be a pain—literally—but what if we could turn that pain into power?
On this episode of A Really Good Cry, we’re getting cozy and chatting about something we don’t talk about enough—our periods! It’s time to embrace this beautiful, natural process and learn how to love and honor our bodies every step of the way. I’ll be sharing my personal journey from seeing my period as a hassle to viewing it as a time for deep connection and self-care.
We’ll explore how aligning with our cycles can help us live more harmoniously with our bodies, how we can manage discomfort naturally, and why understanding what a healthy period looks like is so important. I’ll also be dropping some Ayurvedic gems on balancing hormones and soothing cramps, plus a few of my favorite self-care rituals (like the magical ovary massage) that’ll leave you feeling supported and nourished.
Whether you experience irregular cycles, or painful periods, or just want to deepen your connection with your body, this episode is filled with loving guidance, practical tips, and a whole lot of compassion for your amazing female body. I promise you’ll walk away seeing your period in a whole new light!
