how to start cycle syncing (even if you're busy AF)

Video Description

I used to push through HIIT classes on my period, live on cold smoothies, and ignore my hormones. Quitting birth control at 28 (after ~10 years) wrecked my skin, gut, and energy. Cycle syncing became the framework that finally helped me feel like myself again. In this video, I break down the 4 phases (menstruation, follicular, ovulation, luteal), what actually changes hormonally, exactly how I eat, drink, and move in each phase, and the real benefits I’ve seen: fewer cramps + PMS, steadier mood/energy, better digestion. What you’ll learn: Simple foods + workouts that fit each phase (no rigid rules) How to plan deep work vs. recovery weeks with your cycle Why hunger spikes in luteal (and how to fuel without guilt) The mindset shift that calms your nervous system Tools & resources mentioned: • Cycle tracking apps (use what you like; I mention Lively) • Podcast: Chris Williamson with Dr. Sarah Hill (female hormones) TIMESTAMPS 0:00 intro 0:45 why I quit the pill and started cycle syncing 2:15 the 4 phases 4:38 how I support each phase (nutrition, exercise and lifestyle) 11:48 how my mind and body changed 14:06 the one thing you can take away from this video 🔗 LINKS → join the art of unlearning newsletter https://www.artofanna.com/newsletter → Inner Code traditional chinese teas waitlist: https://www.weareinnercode.com → Inner Code IG: https://www.instagram.com/innercode.co 📲 MY SOCIALS → website: https://www.artofanna.com → links: https://www.artofanna.com/links → instagram: https://www.instagram.com/artofannaaa → tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/artofanna → podcast: http://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/theartofunlearning 💌 CONTACT → [email protected] 🎵 MUSIC → Epidemic Sound
