This one may seem simple but has made such a huge impact how I operate through life ⬇️⬇️⬇️
Days 1-3 🩸Bleed
Low social engagements, low expectations for myself, staying warm and cozy, gentle movement, comfort foods
Days 4-10 🌀 Follicular
Energy gets better, inspiration and creativity strikes, social engagements feel easier, I’m more productive
Days 11-15 🍾Ovulatory
Energy and stamina is at an all time high, I’m most productive and social, capacity is big, s**t is getting done
Days 16-23 🌤️Early Luteal
Energy is starting to decrease, days are pretty steady, routines are pretty usual
Days 24-30 🌪️Luteal
Capacity is decreasing, routines start falling out of balance, social events start to feel tiring, mood is lower
I’ve spent years studying my cycle and recognizing these patterns. Its only been these last 2 years that I got serious about scheduling my life around these ebbs and flows. I was even able to plan for my wedding and honeymoon to be during follicular and ovulatory so my energy was at a high. And if I didn’t have to plan this big event during my period, then why would I?
**disclaimer: I have always had an extremely predictable and routine cycle and I understand that might not be for everyone. The information above is solely based on my personal experience. If you experience irregular cycles or are seeking medical advice, I recommend seeing a woman’s health specialist.
