PMS can feel overwhelming — bloating, mood swings, cravings, headaches… the list goes on. But what’s actually happening in your body during this time, and how can you support yourself instead of fighting your cycle?

In this episode, we’ll cover:

* What PMS really is and the hormonal shifts behind it

* Why your mood and cravings change in the luteal phase

* Practical tools for easing PMS through nutrition, movement, and mindset

* How to listen to your body’s signals instead of pushing through them

If you’re new here, this episode is part of my Cycle Basics Series — a collection of episodes that walk you through each phase of your cycle so you can better understand your body and align your life with your natural rhythms.

Next week, we’ll move into the Menstrual Phase (your Inner Winter) and talk about why rest is one of the most productive things you can give yourself.
