What Your Period Blood Is Trying to Tell You
Your period isn’t just something to “get through”; it’s a personal report card from your body. The color, texture, and timing of your blood hold powerful clues about your hormone levels, circulation, and overall reproductive health. From bright red to dark purple, this guide breaks down exactly what your bleed is trying to tell you, and how to support a more balanced, radiant cycle with herbs, food, and womb wisdom.
Sex and Your Cycle
What if the reason you sometimes don’t feel “in the mood” isn’t in your head, but in your hormones? Most women were never taught that natural lubrication, desire, and even fertility shift throughout the month. In fact, you’re only naturally “wet” during two phases of your cycle, and it’s completely normal to feel drier during the others. This blog unpacks what’s actually happening in your body, why you’re not broken, and how understanding your wet and dry seasons can transform intimacy, communication, and self-trust. Your body is wise. Let’s learn how to listen.
