The Work of Becoming

Episode 79: Periods and Behavior Change


Listen Later

Today, we’ll be talking about periods, and not in a cycle-syncing type of way. This episode is going to be about cycle awareness. Part of the reason why I’ve self-identified as a tornado girl before is literally because of these changes that I experience based on where I’m at in my menstrual cycle. The number one thing (and the thing that I want to talk about in this episode) that has helped me with that, from a behavior change perspective, is simple awareness.

In today’s episode, I’ll be sharing a bit about cycle syncing versus cycle awareness, why I created a note in the Notes app on my phone to track various symptoms at the different points of my cycle, and the moment I caught myself and shifted my awareness to change my behavior based upon where I was at. I hope this episode serves as a reminder that if you are a period-having person, you may experience different behavior change tendencies or symptoms during different parts of your cycle.

Key Takeaways:

  • 1:39 - Cycle Awareness
  • 3:52 - Symptoms at Each Point of my Cycle Note
  • 4:58 - Simple Awareness
