71: The power of your period: How your c...

Lyndi Cohen
About this episode

At first, Lyndi said it felt weird to track her period everyday. But because of what she has learnt and how it has transformed her health, she would do it all over again. 

You’re not imagining it, my friend.

  • Some days it’s easier to be confident or fall asleep or manage your cravings.
  • Some days are better than others for going shopping for clothes or taking a photo you like. 
  • Some days are perfect for making plans while other days work out best when you make no plans at all.

She never felt this connected to her body.

Deciding to track her period, allowed Lyndi to start working with her period, not against it. And with this comes a truck load of new self-compassion and kindness. 

It's so much easier to forgive yourself for not being perfect…for being moody, or for disliking your body or for wanting to eat the entire kitchen!

So if you're thinking, what would you learn about yourself if you tracked your cycle, too? Let's see what Lyndi found out and how you can get started. 

💃 Unhappy with your body and weight? Even if you’ve been hating your body for years, a few simple strategies can help you feel healthier and happier in your skin.  Download Lyndi's free Body Confidence e-book
