Period
Why you feel everything more around your period — it's not in your head
Your feelings before your period are real, valid, and honestly — brilliant information. ✨
TCM says the week before your period, liver qi naturally slows. Emotions that have been quietly waiting all month finally get a voice.
The irritability? The tears? Your body clearing house. 🌸
The cravings for warmth and sweetness make complete sense too. Your spleen is working hard and asking to be nourished.
Red dates. Warm congee. Sweet potato. That's medicine, not weakness.
The urge to slow down and withdraw is your body's wisdom — not laziness.
TCM calls it yin gathering before it releases. Honouring it makes the whole experience gentler.
Your cycle is one of the most intelligent feedback systems you have. 🌙
Every month it tells you exactly what needs more love.
Save this for when your body starts speaking loudly.
