Solutions for Your Cycle Symptoms
Imagine navigating through your monthly cycle like a seasoned sailor amidst ever-changing seas. When your body struggles to adapt to a tumultuous hormonal environment, it creates physiological stress that can impact a variety of organ systems. 

Together, let's embark on this journey with biblical, natural solutions, that you may sail through your cycle with renewed faith and vitality. Chart your course towards holistic well-being, incorporating the insight God intended for you. Whether you're tending your family's needs or serving in ministry, remember your Creator has equipped you with everything you need for a bountiful voyage.

Let's talk about three critical storms of your cycle and ways to navigate them for calmer sailing.



Cravings, Nausea, and Digestive Issues

Cravings, nausea, and digestive issues are part of that journey, indicative of tumultuous waters beneath, aka our digestive system is calling for attention. Just as sailors adjust their sails with the changing winds, we must tend to our gut health to steer towards smoother waters.

Hormones are intricately linked to gut health, much like the compass guiding a ship. When chronic gut inflammation leads to intestinal permeability, or leaky gut, the storm of PMS symptoms such as cravings and nausea worsens. 

Navigating away from these rough seas begins with quelling the inflammation and healing the leaky gut. One effective route is an elimination diet, a cleansing voyage tailored for each individual. 

Alternatively, consider embarking on a Metabolic Reset, which includes movement, hydration, a whole food nutrition plan, and a superfood supplement. This reset is like lifting the fog from your inner compass, helping you combat inflammation with clarity and purpose.  

Follow or combine it with beneficial supplements for a comprehensive approach. Supporting digestion is akin to reinforcing the hull of your vessel.

Enzymes - for helping your body pull all the vitamins and nutrients from the food you eat. Enzymes are essential for the body and are depleted with age; so supplementing is a great choice for overall digestion.

Probiotics - A daily probiotic is a cornerstone of a healthy gut! We want a healthy balance of good bacteria, and replenishing those bacteria daily is key.

Cleansing - A colon cleanse is a wonderful idea when it comes to supporting liver health, gut health, and overall health! Ideally, you do a cleanse in the fall, but anytime the bowels have become sluggish, it's time to do a cleanse.

Tenderness, Headaches, and Irritability

Beyond digestive issues, ailments such as breast tenderness, headaches, and irritability point to detox problems, signaling your body’s need to clear its pathways for toxin disposal. 

These toxins could weigh down your vessel; they aren’t just the chemicals embedded in everyday products like personal care and cleaning products. They are in medications (OTC and prescription), alcohol, foods, water, and even the environment.

Enhancing your detox pathways ensures smooth sailing through murky waters. Supporting these pathways is essential:


Some of my favorite ways to improve detox pathways include:

Liver support - with sources of choline, berberine, and dl-methionine, which helps with normal excretion and recycles glutathione, the body's innate, natural antioxidant. They are perfect for liver detoxification and support. Add a castor oil liver pack with liver liver-supporting essential oil blend for another layer of improvement!

Lymphatic support - The lymph system is a one-way fluid movement circuit that circulates throughout the entire body to eliminate waste and toxins. Movement, dry brushing, and lymphatic massages are fantastic support! 

Blood cleansing. Cleansing the blood is simpler than it may seem. Using a tincture of herbs and essential oils in this supplement is beneficial for immune support, digestive health, lymphatic function, supporting the body's response to inflammation, and toxin elimination.


Fatigue, Sickness, and Feeling Lethargic

Fatigue, sickness, and the feeling of being rundown often accompany the ebb and flow of our cycle, reflecting nutritional deficiencies much like a compass in need of recalibration. Nourishing your body with lots of green leafy foods can reignite the vitality within you, enabling smoother navigation through the waves of your menstrual cycle.

The best place to start is liver support, as mentioned above, but feeling exhausted likely means you have some nutritional deficiencies that need to be addressed.

The most common ones are B vitamins, magnesium, and minerals!

My favorite supplements for this are:

The superfood drink mentioned above is a must every single day. Energy levels, skin and hair health, decreased stress, better sleep–this one supplement affects so much.

B Complex- B vitamins are synonymous with healthy energy levels, but they also affect hormones! Because they are water-soluble, we need to replenish them daily, so supplementing makes sense.

Magnesium- Magnesium is essential for over 300 reactions in the body, including energy production and muscle contraction! It helps with physical stress on the body and improves sleep. 

Minerals - a supplement combining the benefits of ionic minerals with Lemon, Cinnamon, and Peppermint essential oils to create a formulation that is quickly and fully absorbed by the body. 

Sleep -Aid- When you need a little more help with sleep, a melatonin-free supplement is safe for long-term use and incredibly effective for helping you fall asleep and stay that way!

Hello, I'm Dana!

 

If I had known the TRUTH about the toxic carcinogens lurking inside the FOODS, CLEANING, PERSONAL CARE, and LAUNDRY products I was buying, I would have done more to preserve my health! Like most American's, I had NO CLUE; there were toxins in them that were DESTROYING my body. 

 


Since 2013, when my journey back to wellness began, I have spent loads of money, (because insurance doesn't cover WELL care) hours learning what the root cause of my chronic pain, fatigue, dense brain fog, and lethargy was from.

 

After four years of researching and experimenting with different so-called "natural or green" products, and RE-learning how to shop, read labels, cook, and clean my struggle to find safe, plant-based products was complete. I easily began transforming my home into a safe environment that no longer created health problems. I have now replaced all of my medications with plant-based foods and products that work wonderfully without the side effects!!  

 

Are you struggling to find real relief for your symptoms too? Do you desire to find the health God designed you to have? Would you enjoy a community of wellness-seeking people to help educate you, share experiences, and some great tips?

 

I'm confident this is what you're searching for too. Let me invite you to join my educational group Biblical Health for Christ-Centered Homemakers. Want to chat more about your journey to wellness and how you can help your family too? Click below to contact me now!
