Tips for feeling good in your body – through every phase of your cycle
Do you know the feeling when you feel light and strong one day – and bloated and sensitive the next? Welcome to life with a cycle. Our hormones are multitasking geniuses. They not only regulate our periods, but also influence mood, energy, desire – and yes, how we feel in our bodies.
But: A “bad body feeling” doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. It simply means your body has different needs right now. And that’s exactly where we begin – with mindfulness, self-care, and small rituals that support you in every cycle phase.
Menstruation – Retreat & Rest
During this phase, your body is focused inward. Many women feel more sensitive, tired, introverted. You might want to withdraw, avoid tight clothing, and simply need warmth.
💡 Tip: Say “no” more often, snuggle up, and listen to your body. A hot water bottle, gentle teas, and soft, reusable period products can help you stay connected to yourself.
Follicular Phase – Momentum & Energy
Your period is over, and your energy returns. You feel more drive, your body feels lighter, and you’re ready for movement and connection.
💡 Tip: Use this phase for new projects, exercise, and solo dates. It’s a great time to start new routines – or celebrate your body with loving touch or a pampering ritual (like a gentle vulva oil).
Ovulation – Radiance & Sensuality
Around ovulation, many women feel especially attractive, sensual, and in tune with their desires. No wonder – your body is biologically in “receptive” mode.
💡 Tip: Embrace this power! Enjoy moments of pleasure – solo or with others. A few drops of a quality orgasm oil like GOLDENE LUST can be the perfect way to honour your sensuality – without any pressure.
Luteal Phase – Sensitivity & Self-Care
Things slow down again. PMS may show up, your body might feel heavier, you’re more emotional or easily irritated. Many women feel “not like themselves” during this phase.
💡 Tip: Take yourself seriously – and lovingly. Give yourself breaks, offer kind words, and be gentle. Now’s not the time for peak performance, but for mindfulness. Care for your body – with a relaxing oil like PINK PEARLS or BLUE TEARS, gently reminding you: You are just right as you are.
Your body is always changing – and that’s a beautiful thing
Feeling good in your body doesn’t mean feeling perfect all the time. It means understanding your body in every phase – and giving it what it needs. Sometimes that’s movement. Sometimes rest. Sometimes pleasure. And often: just a little more love.
