RE: Yoga on your period? And how I have learned to honor my cycle

in Natural Medicine5 years ago

Ha I thought it was patriarchal bullshit too. But yes, there's something in it. I was always taught not to invert and it does make logical sense. I rarely practice on first 2 days unless to sooth. I like supta baddhakonasana too ... such a great post.

Haha that’s so interesting to hear we reacted in the same way! Yes it’s interesting because since I got more aware of my cycle I do experience more cramps and pain. So I wouldn’t really exhaust myself anyway because the first 2 days are usually a bit of a struggle anyway.

Thank you 🙏

Well, you can't tell not to do something just coz I'm bleeding! I guess we were raised to feel powerful coz we bleed not weak and then there's the whole segregation thing that feeds into it. However, I realised I had to calm my boots... anatomically and energetically, it simply is better to adjust a little to support my system, not deplete it..
