HOW TO SYNC YOUR LIFE TO YOUR CYCLE // all about cycle syncing - info every woman should know!!

Today I’m talking all about cycle syncing (or your infradian rhythm) AKA how to sync your life to your cycle so you can live more in alignment, balance your hormones, and take advantage of your cyclical strengths. Your period and your menstrual cycle is not meant to make your life more difficult, and if we truly get in touch with our cycle and understand our different hormonal shifts, we can use our cycle to our advantage and become super powerful! This is important info every woman should know!

In this video, I'm walking you through exactly how to eat, exercise, work, and embrace your relationships based on the phase you're in your cycle.

This info is from Alisa Vitti's book In The Flo (link below) and I HIGHLY recommend you check it out! She is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to cycle syncing and just women's hormonal health in general.

This is one of my favorite topics to talk about EVER. It’s truly changed my life for the better and I hope you get some value from this video.

What you said about it being crazy that all girls aren’t taught this. YES!!! Half of the planet needs this info yet we’re all forced to live like men. We need so many different things from what men need. This is why so many diets don’t work well for women either. Most studies are done on men and it just doesn’t work for us.

Notes

Menstrual: soups stews cozy food teas
Follicular: steamed sautéed veggies light vibrant food cruciferous veggies for estrogen levels
Ovulating: fresh fruits veggies salads smoothies juices
luteal phase: metabolism I creases and more hungry roasted carrots sweet potatoes squash more fiber to flush out extra estrogen

Menstrual phase: don’t push self to work out, gentle yoga long walk
Follicular phase: burst of energy running dancing cardio, excited to try new things
Ovulation: most social with most energy, high endurance
Luteal : less cardio based and more strength based low impact Pilates barre yoga likely less energy

Productivity
Menstrual: slow easy gentle likely resting reflecting evaluation likely least energy most intuition
Follicular: creativity at all time high, planning
Ovulation: time to focus on work and social things if you have a lot of writing to do
Luteal: likely less motivated creative and inspired tasks that maybe require less thought tie up loose ends

Millennials are the wave of breaking generation curses. We will help the next generation learn this earlier. Thank you for this video.

Another Youtuber describes the different phases of the menstrual cycle as the seasons. Menstruation-phase as Winter, then spring, Ovulation as summer and luteal phase as autmn/fall. That was very helpful for me to remember what to do and how to see the different phases.
Tjanks for your channel and helping other women to grow ❤😊

I just started my menstrual cycle and was wondering why my productivity levels were so low. I was stressing out and being hard on myself because I was napping all day which made me worry about falling behind in my classes, but after hearing that it was normal I feel so much better. Definitely going to start researching more about this thank you

[gabriellemaheux]

I have endometriosis and experience each phases of my cycle in a very intense way. I've never been able to keep a healthy routine because of that (which made my symptoms worse). I've start cycle syncing a few months ago and it changed my life! Everything is easier and I've never been this healthy 😌❤️ I feel more connected to myself ☺️

[karek]

I learned to cycle sync on my own through trial and error. How fortunate that young women have access to this information early.

[emmaconnell]

Each month makes so much sense now. Why I'm low and high on energy and why I'm desperate to get out and see friends and other times when I'm happy just to get comfy and watch TV. Thanks!

[elle_dee-lovell]

One things for sure. I’m going to teach my daughter about this when it’s time ❤️

[rewaupasani]

Omg. Why doesn't anyone teach this in school? So many women would be happy to be aware of all this and feel normal about their feelings across phases

[ADashofDeggs]

This was so fascinating and makes so much sense! I’m upset that I’m JUST NOW learning about all this!! I had my little notebook taking notes to try to implement some of your suggestions. Thank you for this! I have a feeling this will be life changing 😁

[Sugarrush]

I hear ya, I'm 39 and just finding this information now and I'm so grateful! I dread the week before my period just as much as my actual period. The week before I'm such an irritated angry person and the week of I'm just in so much pain.

[Yaniza]

I literally took notes during your whole video 😂 thank you SO much!!!! 🙏🏾

[samanthagould]

I love how you walked through each area in life for each cycle phase. I also appreciate that you mentioned multiple times that this really only works if your hormones are pretty balanced because I know too many women who try to solve their problems without digging into the root cause, which is often imbalanced hormones.

[carolbottari]

I am so happy I found you. I'm 50 years old and going through menopause. My moods are all over the place! Thank you for this information. It's very helpful!

[RileyNguyen-rxez]

Almost cry when you mentioned i should eat more during luteal phase. I’m close to my period days and feel much more hungry than usual and been kinda beat myself up for wanting to eat me. Thank you 🥹

[marijakalezic]

I loveee this ❤
it really helped me understand myself better and combined with the book ive recently read - "In The Flo", i feel like ive gained soo much knowledge on the topic that isn't talked abot enough.
Thank you❤

[nataliesoutlet]

[CycleCoachAcademy]

It's so cool to hear about cycle syncing! You do such a great job at explaining how hormones impact energy and therefore our energy output! Thanks so much for making such a rich video!

[sarahrhomrich]

Off topic but your hair is absolutely GORGEOUS! & I’m very interested in tracking my cycle as I was on birth control for a while & just want to find a natural way in family planning :)
