Food cravings before, during and after menstruation is associated with two things: hormonal fluctuations; and changes in our energy needs
.
.
.
During menstruation, a lot happens in a females body! Given the changes that occur in our body, doesn’t it also make sense that our body may have different nutritional requirements at this time as well?
.
.
.
Food cravings are our bodies way of ensuring we obtain the nutrients our bodies require. Further, during the peak of a women’s menstrual period , extra energy is in fact needed. The body, wanting to maintain homeostasis (in everything from weight to mood), will intuitively know what it needs and will crave certain foods to obtain those requirements
.
.
.
Females often do not allow themselves to listen to their body & accommodate these physical changes that are required. It is the guilt we feel right after eating these foods that is far more likely to lead to binge eating, rather than the food itself
.
.
.
So reminding yourself of what is taking place at a physiological level during menstruation and normalising the fact that we have different nutritional requirements at this time is so important to reduce the guilt associated with the fact that our body is actually doing what it needs to be doing
.
.
.
Allowing yourself the food you crave, and enjoying it, is actually the main secret to preventing development of binge eating during menstruation. Do not restrain yourself from eating it or worry about weight gain
.
.
You actually need to TRUST your body!

This mama-to-be is really suffering with morning sickness, is struggling to keep much down and it’s making her anxious 🤢
•
She’s just seven weeks pregnant, which is such a tricky time to manage morning sickness and anxiety because most women keep their pregnancies to themselves at this time, so they don’t get the support they really need 😔
•
Luckily, she came for some acupuncture which can work wonders for morning sickness and anxiety. Acupuncture can subside or completely eliminate morning sickness and it can really reduce anxiety by balancing the emotions 💫
•
The first trimester is often the hardest because there is so much going. The body is making a brand new being from scratch so it is in overdrive. It’s the busiest time of pregnancy and it can be very taxing on the mother 🌪
•
One of the points I used was PERICARDIUM 6, which is a point for both nausea and anxiety, so is perfect for this case 🙏🏻
•
Acupuncture can bring real relief from the difficulties of the first trimester, give it a go 💜🤰🏼

Isn’t it just SO reassuring to see the line on your tests get darker?! 😍
The first test i took, i was one day late, and 4 weeks pregnant! And the last test, taken today! I am currently 5 weeks and 2 days pregnant (according to first date of my last period). I know it’s still early days, but seeing these tests, all lined up like this makes me feel so much better! 💕
