Supportive Tools for When You Are Bleeding

K so it’s your bleed week, you’re feeling a bit rubbish, maybe you don’t love this week of your cycle, or maybe you want to but the pain and discomfort and general meh-ness of it make it really hard for you not to wish the days away.

Well friends, the thing is - when something as colossal as a global pandemic or any sort of huge trauma happens, our bodies initiate what is known as survival mode. For most of us the past two years have been spent in fight or flight mode. We’ve been focusing solely on surviving and when we are doing that, we can’t take time to process what is happening.
