15. Lean into the superpowers of our menstrual cycles with Nicole Tillotson
Description
Many of us are oblivious to the knowledge and awareness that how we care for our menstrual cycles can greatly impact our energy, mood, sleep, PMS symptoms, and more. Furthermore, when we choose to ignore, alter, and/or suppress the natural rhythms of our menstrual cycles, our entire bodily functions can be thrown off course, resulting in hormonal-related health issues.
Listen in to my conversation with Nicole Tillotson, founder of Season and Cycle, on menstrual health, cycle syncing, and how we can actually revitalize our health when we lean into the little known secret superpowers of our menstrual cycles! We discuss the different inner “seasons” of the menstrual cycle and self-care practices appropriate for each “season” for ultimate self-nurture.
