Your energy, cravings, mood, sleep, appetite, nervous system, and even how you experience motherhood can shift throughout your cycle. Supporting your cycle will support YOU!

Here I share the things that helped me feel more supported in my cycle, my nervous system, motherhood, and my overall health.

In case you need it for reference, here’s a cycle overview ⬇️

Menstrual Phase:
Your bleed. 🩸
Typically around days 1–5.

Follicular Phase:
Begins after your bleed ends and lasts until ovulation approaches.
Typically around days 6–10.

Ovulatory Phase:
Your fertile window when cervical mucus increases and ovulation occurs.
Typically around days 11–15.

Luteal Phase:
Begins after ovulation and lasts until your next period.
Typically around days 16–28.

If you want to simplify cycle syncing even more, you can also think of each phase as roughly one week. This can be especially helpful if you do not have a regular cycle, are postpartum, stressed, healing, or not actively tracking ovulation yet.
