Menstruation, or Day 1 of your menstrual cycle, is the first day with bright red flow. This phase lasts typically 3-7 days.

At this time your uterus is shedding the endometrial lining that built up in the luteal phase, and estrogen is at its lowest point just before your bleed.

During menstruation, your physical body, mind, and emotions may experience unique sensations and shifts:

🌸 Physical Body- It may need rest and nourishment. Your hormones levels are at their lowest. You may experience sensations of fatigue, cramps, or bloating. Listen to your body's cues and provide it with the care it deserves. It is important to nourish the body with adequate calories and focus on restorative workouts.

🌺 Mind: Your mind may naturally gravitate towards introspection and reflection.

💫 Emotions: It's common to experience a range of emotions, from introspective and reflective moods to heightened sensitivity or vulnerability.

This is the phase of the infradian rhythm where you should take things more slowly and allow your body to rest.

The 28-Day Infradian Rhythm is a second internal clock in a women’s body that starts a puberty and continues until menopause. It has 4 different phases:

-Menstruation (3-7 days)
-Follicular (7-10 days)
-Ovulatory (3-4 days)
-Luteal (10- 14 days)

Similar to your circadian clock that regulates your sleep/wake cycle in the body, the infradian rhythm affects your both your body and mind throughout your 28-day cycle. ☀️ 🌙

Both your circadian and infradian are affected by each other. For instance, how well you sleep can impact ovulation and fertility. Disruptions to your 24-hour circadian clock can lead to longer menstrual cycles and/or irregular periods. ❤️

Infradian Rhythm: A Woman’s Hidden Superpower 💪💫🦸‍♀️

Did you know that alongside your circadian rhythm, you have another internal timekeeper called the infradian rhythm? It's time to shed light on this often overlooked aspect of your body's natural cycle. In this post, we'll dive deep into the world of the infradian rhythm, its significance, and how understanding it can revolutionize your health and well-being. Get ready to discover the power of the Infradian Rhythm and its impact on your body and mind. Let's dive in! 🌟

The Infradian Rhythm is a 28-day cycle that regulates your menstrual cycle, serving as one of your body's two internal timekeepers (the other being the circadian rhythm). While the circadian rhythm affects both men and women, the infradian rhythm is exclusive to those with female physiology. It influences various systems in your body, including the brain, metabolism, immune system, microbiome, stress response system, and reproductive system.

It's time to embrace the innate power of your infradian rhythm. By aligning your lifestyle choices, self-care practices, and routines with your unique physiology, you can experience greater balance, vitality, and fulfillment. In the next series of posts I am going to help shed light on the infradian rhythm. Stay tuned!
