holistic wellness series: cycle synching
🌱 what is cycle synching?
in short, cycle synching is coordinating your lifestyle habits with the phases of your menstrual cycle.
🌱 benefits of cycle synching
cycle synching can help you optimize energy levels and improve your understanding of your cycle, which, in turn, can boost estrogen levels and even boost fertility. it can also improve your hormone balance overall, which helps ease stress and period symptoms.
the menstrual phase (days ~1-5)
exercise: since the energy is low during this phase, focus on low-impact movement. this can include yoga, walking, and stretching.
food: focus on comforting and easily digested food. soups, decaf tea, veggies (lots of greens!), etc.
the follicular phase (days ~6-14)
exercise: in this phase, energy begins to rise again. great exercise options can include moderate weight lifting or cardio, jogging, swimming, and pilates.
food: light veggies and fruit and lean protein, such as eggs, salmon, poultry (like turkey), and cheese.
the ovulatory phase (days ~15-20)
exercise: energy is the highest in this phase, so high-intensity and sweaty workouts, such as hiit or vigorous weight training are optimal here.
food: lots of fiber and water to support digestion and healthy fats such as fish, nuts, and avocado.
the luteal phase (days ~20-28)
exercise: energy begins to decrease before the cycle repeats. focus on moderate exercise such as bodyweight strength training, pilates, more intense yoga, and cardio.
food: healthy fats and lots of fiber! veggies such as sweet potato and squash, seeds, salmon, and dark chocolate are good options for this time.

Everyone knows that curing cancer isn't as profitable as treating it and billing you every step of the way.
However, one thing to consider is that the elite have never died of an cancer, they always die of an old age.
What does that tell you? Think about it. 🤔

holistic womb healing tip:
aim to keep your womb warm by avoiding or limiting the amount of cold you put into your body and replacing it with warm foods + liquids. this increases blood flow to the uterus and aids in fertility! even if you're not trying to get pregnant, on a spiritual level, having a fertile womb allows you to naturally magnetize the things that you want in life with ease.

simple skincare tips!
🌼eat the foods that love you back. your skin is a direct mirror of your internal situation. if your digestive system is being bombarded often by foods that create a lot of wastes and residues, that does more harm than good. and so, the struggle to eliminate them will be reflected in your skin. your diet constitutes the vast majority of your skin health. change your meals to be whole food plant based (still delicious, satisfying, and exciting) & watch your skin glow and your skincare routine simplify.
🌼be conscious of what's going on your skin. the skin layers can be over-cleansed, imbalanced, and aggravated when the skin microbiome and pH are disrupted. if you wipe out the beneficial bacterial populations with harshly formulated products, you may find that you break out (i.e. harmful bacterial populations begin to thrive). use gentle, simple skin formulas such as castile soaps, natural oils & butters (i recommend jojoba oil for mostly everyone), natural soap bars, and clays. most commercial skin care products disturb the skin cells (introduce too much foreign material to the body, unsuitable pH ranges, imbalance the microbiome, etc). they sell because it's convention to buy them, the brands are well-known, and their sales pitches are enticing. but really, no cream or serum will ever be the magic potion your skin was asking for. it will only be a band-aid, at best. truly healthy skin comes from diet, and the products are just for any other necessary maintenance. if you get a pimple, you should look first to why the pimple emerged, not what treatment will remove it.
🌼keep your lymph flowing. simple ways to do this are through good lifestyle habits. things like doing exercise & sports you find fun, breathwork, dry brushing, eating lots of fruit, avoiding wearing bras & other tight clothing items, lymphatic massage/gua sha can all be helpful.
🌼focus on hydration via fresh fruits and veggies. the water within plant foods is more useable to your cells, and your skin will cease being overly oily or dry overtime (especially if you reduce/eliminate your salt & oil intake). it will also help to encourage lymphatic flow, so you can see problems like blemishes, cellulite, old scars diminish after great consistency.
🌼allow your skin to breathe. this is especially good if you spend time in stuffy (poorly ventilated) indoor environments, like offices, hospitals, planes, etc. one great way is via herbal facial steaming (i recommend it 3x a week or so). make a hot infusion of an aromatic tea, cover it and allow it to cool a few minutes, and, with closed eyes, allow the pores to open and receive the herbal medicine (this is a great time to meditate, manifest, and just feel pampered). getting more fresh air, working up a sweat, and going to a sauna are also ways to allow your skin to breathe.
🌼avoid steroid prescriptions creams at all costs. they are very deleterious to health in the long term, and they can be very painful to come off of. it's not a real fix. it's not worth hurting your kidneys & adrenals for. evaluate your diet instead. do you eat dairy? choose plant-based dairy options instead (they're simple to make yourself too). do you eat a lot of fats? try oil-free cooking methods instead (opt for sautéing with a bit of water, baking, steaming, air frying, etc). avoiding eating out as much.
🌼be aware of what you're putting in your hair as well. your shampoos, conditioner, leave-ins, gels, moisturizers, oils, serums, etc all tend to touch your face too, when your hair touches your face. if they wouldn't be good enough to put on your face, don't put them in your hair. a lot of the best skin cleansers are also suitable as shampoos. a lot of oils and butters can be used for both. plant-based gels like aloe vera or flax seed are simple to DIY, and are dual-use once again. basically, this will simplify your life.
🌼understand the water that runs through your pipes. if your shower and tap water are like most people's around the world, they aren't optimal for our skin. for example, they contain added chemicals to sanitize the water but that can prevent the proper microbiomes from developing on your skin. a weak skin microbiome is prone to skin issues. so, try to use distilled water on your face (if you're not able to get a water filter, a gallon jug at a store is affordable. they're about $1.30 USD in my area).

I can't believe girls my age and younger are getting
"preventative botox"
I just hope I get the chance to grow old with my partner without too much pain,
embrace my gray hair I'll inevitably grow
and maybe someday even hold my grandchildren with wrinkly loving hands.
We shouldn't be scared of looking our age🩷
Growing older
is a privilege

✨🌱 How to Begin Your Holistic Leveling Up Journey 🌱✨
by Sidewalk Chemistry (@sidewalkchemistry)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some of us are into leveling up, but with peace as the main aspect (so some things like consumerism and social status matter less). We look to nature to cultivate abundance & engage in a give and take (right relationship).
The holistic leveling-up journey asks one to embrace their higher self and expand their hearts towards nurturing true self-love and pursuing holistic self-care practices. In other words, the journey is about being attentive to the states of your mind, body, and spirit. 
The aim is to learn to be more intentional with your being and the Earth, release the pains from your past, realize your multidimensionality, and grow in your intelligences (emotional, interpersonal, naturalistic, artistic, intuitive, and beyond). 
In effect, all of life is noticed to be in your grasp. The understandings that we are not victims to our reality & the state of our lives is in our hands becomes impossible to ignore. In this place is exactly where we feel activated to create beautiful circumstances for ourselves as we follow the authentic desires of our hearts.

8 healthy habits
Fuel Your Body Right: Prioritize whole foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein, and healthy fats. Limit processed foods, sugary drinks, and unhealthy fats for sustained energy and a balanced mood.
Move It or Lose It: Engage in regular physical activity (at least 30 minutes most days). Walking, swimming, cycling, dancing - find activities you enjoy to boost mood, reduce stress, and improve overall health.
Sleep Like a Champ: Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep each night. Develop a consistent sleep schedule, create a relaxing bedtime routine, and optimize your sleep environment for darkness, quiet, and coolness.
Mind Your Stress: Chronic stress can wreak havoc on your mental and physical well-being. Practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing, meditation, yoga, or spending time in nature to manage stress effectively.
Connect and Belong: Nurture relationships with loved ones, family, and friends. Strong social connections provide emotional support, a sense of belonging, and can buffer stress. Join a club or social group to expand your network.
Find Your Joy: Make time for hobbies and activities that bring you pleasure and relaxation. It could be reading, listening to music, spending time in nature, or pursuing creative outlets. Prioritize activities that uplift your mood and reduce stress.
Challenge Your Mind: Engage in activities that stimulate your brain and keep you sharp. Learn a new language, play brain games, read challenging books, or take up a new hobby that requires learning new skills.
Embrace Gratitude: Cultivate an attitude of gratitude. Reflect on the positive aspects of your life, express appreciation for the good things, and practice thankfulness. This can significantly improve your mood and overall well-being.pen_spark
