Every month I dread the visit of my period.
About 9 days before my period I am met with lots of emotions, tears, anger & exhaustion. It feels like three weeks out of the month I am dealing with woman issues, which leads me to one week of feeling pretty good.
I figured I am not alone so I am sharing my secrets because friends what whats working!
So here are 5 Natural Remedies to help ease your period
Exercise
I love exercise. It plays are huge part in stress & relief when it comes to periods. While I am not a huge fan of intense workouts during my period because I want to respect it’s process, I do try to move my body for 30 minutes. It helps to relieve backaches & cramps, and gives me a dose of endorphins to help with mood swings. Walking, yoga, stretching are great remedies to help with periods, and they help with feelings of sadness, irritability, and anxiety.
Food
As much as I want to run for the greasy fries & ice cream I am realizing how much food plays a major roll with my monthly cycle. Large amounts of sugar, fat, and salt can wreak havoc on your mood. You don’t have to avoid them altogether, but finding a balance with fruits, veggies, and high quality of meat will help support your body, and keep your blood sugar from dropping.
Favorite snack of mine:
- Cut an apple into slices
- Drizzle some Raw Honey on each slice
- Sprinkle Ceylon Cinnamon over as many slices as you like
Sleep
We all have an endless list of things to do, but sleep is so important when it come to helping with periods. Getting seven to eight hours of sleep at night should be a goal every night, but even more during menstrual cycle. This will help with mood & exhaustion that many feel during periods.
Stress
Many of us are already under a lot of stress with our daily lives. Stress during periods can worsen mood swings. Deep breathing exercises and meditation can help calm your mind and your body!
