The Womens Wellness Guide
As women, we have been intricately designed. The way our hormones function is like a dance, a series of feedback loops, cascading creations of each hormone from the initial source. When everything is in sync, our system flows beautifully to create our monthly cycles each and every month, for the purpose of forming and sustaining a new life.
Often times, in our modern world things can bring about imbalance within our cycles and hormones. The ways in which we as women live, eat, and think about our cycles can be medicine or they can be the cause for our dis-ease.
Within this guide I hope to bring you invaluable knowledge about your body - that which should have been accessible and taught to all of us as we first entered into womanhood. From the very basics of your hormones, what they are, how they work and what happens when they become imbalanced to tangible ways you can realign yourself as a woman.
The guide is divided into four chapters as follows:
1. The Basics - what hormones are, how they’re made, definitions of the ones we look at more closely in this book + the rhythm of the female cycle itself and what each hormone is doing during the each phase
2. Hormonal imbalances - this chapter takes you through some of the most common hormone imbalances I see as a naturopath, symptoms that are associated with each, how to test for these and how we got to these imbalanced states in the first place
3. Getting back into alignment - this chapter is filled with resources for you to naturally support your cycles and hormone health. Nutrition and lifestyle medicine suggestions including recipes, a deep dive into cycle tracking and much more
4. Cycle syncing - lastly I go through the ways to live in alignment with your cycle moving forward, including a recap of what your hormones are doing within each phase, how this then effects you in your day to day life and what you can do nutritionally and with your lifestyle to support each phase
