Hey guys! In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the menstrual phase. This is more than just a week of bleeding,  it’s a hormonal reset where your body is shedding your uterine lining and recalibrating. And yet, so many of us (including me) weren’t educated about all the ways we can support our bodies during this phase instead of just “dealing with the pain.”We’ll cover:What’s happening hormonally during your period The science behind rest, slower movement, and why fatigue is normal. The best foods to eat during your period, including iron-rich options, warming foods, and blood-sugar-friendly meals. Gentle workouts and daily rhythms that actually support hormone balance. My go-to period wellness products, from 100% organic cotton tampons, castor oil patches, heat patches, sleep mists, and magnesium-rich ritualsWhy your period is considered the fifth vital sign, and what your flow, color, and symptoms might be telling you about your overall health. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your cycle, dread your period, or just want to feel better during that week of the month, you are going to LOVE this episode. Cookin Up Wellness Ebook: HERE Nite Nectar Restock: HERE Instagram: @Gracie_NortonWellness Her Way Instagram: HEREProduced by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
