Your Monthly Superpower
Oct 16, 2025
Hey you,
Ever wondered why one week you’re ready to conquer the world and the next you just want to stay in bed with chocolate and tea?
That’s not inconsistency. It’s your hormones talking.
Cycle syncing means aligning how you eat, move, and live with the natural rhythm of your menstrual cycle — so you can work with your body, not against it.
Here’s a simple guide to your four phases ↓
🩸 Menstrual phase (Days 1–5)
Your hormones are at their lowest and your body is focused on repair.
How to support yourself:
Rest more than usual - slower mornings, early nights
Eat warm, iron-rich foods: soups, lentils, leafy greens, dark chocolate
Gentle movement: walking, stretching, yin yoga
Magnesium for cramps and relaxation
Energy: inward, reflective, intuitive
→ Journal, plan softly, release what no longer serves.
🌱 Follicular phase (Days 6–14)
Estrogen rises — energy, focus, and confidence return.
How to support yourself:
Eat light, colourful meals: sprouts, citrus, greens, lean protein
Try new workouts — dance, cardio, strength training
Start new projects or brainstorm creative ideas
Get morning sunlight to boost energy and circadian rhythm
Energy: fresh, social, creative
→ Perfect for new beginnings and ideas.
🔥 Ovulatory phase (Days 15–17)
Estrogen peaks and testosterone gives a small boost. You feel radiant and magnetic.
How to support yourself:
Eat raw veggies, cruciferous greens, and zinc-rich foods like pumpkin seeds and seafood
HIIT, heavy lifts, or group workouts - performance is at its best
Schedule important meetings or social events
Hydrate well: your metabolism runs hotter
Energy: expressive, confident, bold
→ Go after what you want.
🌙 Luteal phase (Days 18–28)
Progesterone rises, then falls — this is your “slow down” phase.
How to support yourself:
Warm, grounding meals: sweet potatoes, oats, chickpeas, dark chocolate
Gentle strength training, yoga, or pilates
Prioritize sleep, limit caffeine and alcohol
Magnesium and B6 support mood and calm
Energy: intuitive, nurturing, grounding
→ Wrap things up, prioritize rest, prepare for your next cycle.
Why it matters
Men’s hormones reset every 24 hours.
Ours follow a 28-day rhythm - each phase with its own strengths.
When you live in sync with it, you stop fighting your body and start flowing with it.
It’s not a trend.
It’s your biology - and your monthly superpower.
Your body speaks. We translate. You thrive.
With love,
Karina
