I am healing my PMDD and ice plunges are a big no lmao. Medication has helped me a lot in my path but you can't stay on that forever, so treating my luteal and menstrual phase as sacred and a time of deep rest regardless of cramps and mood swings was the thing that really helped me to have better periods!

Saunas and salt/spiritual baths so much better for us🌹

🔥 Cold plunges for women are imo just NO. Just don't do it 😂🤞🏼. Most of us have nervous systems already too fucking wired, adding more impact just fucks it even more. Get your ass in a hot bath, with amazing fragrances, a good book, a delicious snack, and all the time in the world. Done 💌🌀🤞🏼

This is such a valid and true point. I’m always being told about ice baths but it feels like a horrendous idea to me and I think it’s exactly because of everything you say here! X

I’m SO grateful to see sisters claiming their cyclical living. We never wanted to be ‘equal’ to men, we just want to make our goddamn choices.

No one honours the complementary aspect of the masculine & feminine better than a woman who lives in sync with her cycle.
