moon time
It feels like nothing about your skin is every truly resolved. That’s because it isn’t! Most treatments for acne only treat the surface level of symptoms but don’t treat the REASON why you break out in the first place. There is a very strong correlation between your health and your skin and I am going to connect the dots for you in this blog post!
Traditionally all throughout hunting and gathering times leading up to modern civilization women’s menstrual cycles have always been synced with the moon. Women would ovulate during the full moon and start their period during the new moon, and were synced up to a 28 day cycle.
It’s been 3, 4 now 6 months since your last period and you are getting nervous and scared that it may be gone for good and you will never be able to have a baby when you want to. The anxiety is building now and you may worry that you are infertile or have some sort of vagina cancer!! Does it feel like I’m in your head?
let me guess, you have suffered with mind numbing cramps, migraines etc. all your life and so did your mom and her mom before her, so you probably think “this is my normal, its genetic.” Well I am here to tell you just because you were genetically predisposed doesn’t mean you don’t have the power to change everything.
Here is a little secret that makes women have super powers: each cycle changes our brain chemistry week to week throughout the month, depending on the fluctuating hormones of our cycle.
The mind numbing cramps, fatigue, mood swings, ACNE, and bloat- it all seems to be some sad plight of womanhood. Well I am here to tell you that isn’t so!! Even though it sucks, all those symptoms are your bodies ways of communicating with you. Well let me be your pocket translation so you can decode your symptoms
The ocean embodies all that is wonderful in the power of the feminine
The feminine surrenders, flows, is fluid and adaptable,
She is powerful, not solid yet strong,
In the depths of her she can both bring life and death
Have you ever had a friend who is always annoyingly correcting you in grammar or unimportant facts?? They are always beginning their sentences with: “ummm, actually…” well sorry but not sorry, I’m about to be that friend while I bust some myths on the female cycle
For years following all I knew about my female cycle was that I could get pregnant and once a month I would bleed. What happened within that month was a vague enigma. I want to break that NOW.
Our hormones are usually disrupted by poor diet, out of whack blood sugar, toxin overload, poor digestion and an overload of prescriptions. There are two issues with hormones I would like to explore here today in regards to our skin.
