Part two of our menstrual cycle series is here! Rita and Brittni pick up where they left off, diving into the luteal and menstrual phases — and why learning to work with these phases instead of against them might be one of the most powerful things you can do for your health.

Part 2: The Luteal Phase & Menstruation

Highlights:

• The luteal phase deep dive: hormonal shifts, inflammation, heat, and why your emotions are actually full of intelligence
• Why carb cravings during the luteal phase are not something to fight — and what your body is actually doing with them
• How to shift your exercise in the luteal and menstrual phases to support your body and protect against injury
• The menstrual phase as your inner winter: rest, reflection, and why slowing down is a radical act
• Emotions during your bleed — why they feel so raw and what they might be trying to tell you
• A simple journaling practice to help you tune into your cycle and start listening to your body
