Peak luteal phase bumming you out?

If your period arrives with a little too much intensity, know that your ever-changing life, environment, stress levels, and seasons can create hormone shifts and hormonal sensitivity. These are important adaptive responses, but when your body's whisper turns into a scream, it needs a little extra support.

Clues worth tracking
Premenstrual bloating.
Lighter sleep with restless nights.
Body temperature fluctuations. 
Prolonged spotting before full flow. 
Cramps get bad enough to change your plans.
Mood & energy drops off a cliff. 

Make the basics easier.

Track symptoms, sleep, stress, and mood for several cycles to find any helpful patterns 
Aim for adequate sleep, regular meals & sufficient hydration. 
Listen to your body & adjust your movement, workouts & general output to accommodate your fluctuating readiness.  

Herbs Can Help

Calm Down is a modern take on a Chinese medicine classic that helps soothe tension and stress & promote flow, which can help align you for a less difficult, less painful period. You can take Calm Down daily throughout the month.

Cramp Champ is the heroine for days when painful cramps take over and wreck your plans. This liquid botanical blend contains herbs traditionally used to soothe and ease painful uterine contractions.

Harmonious Magnesium is a blend of gentle magnesiums that help relax muscle tension and ease cramps, supporting deeper sleep and softer moods.

NAC is a versatile amino acid that helps raise glutathione levels, reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, soothe the mind, and has recently been researched for its ability to ease painful symptoms associated with periods and endometriosis. 

Keep it simple

1. Start with 1 teaspoon of Calm Down each day after your period starts and continue until your next period arrives.
2. Add 1 teaspoon of Cramp Champ each day when you feel your cramps arriving. And you can increase Cramp Champ to 2 or 3 times per day on the worst days of period pain.
3. 1-2 capsules of Harmonious Magnesium can be taken at night during your PMS & flow time, or even throughout the month.
4. Take 1-2 capsules of NAC each day throughout the month.
