How To Honour Your Cycle ~with Dr Bree of Traditional Chinese Medicine

What foods and movement will serve you best?  

What practises will help to nurture your body during the different seasons of your menstrual cycle? 

Being a type A personality, I have a history of pushing through with work tasks and also the way I exercised, no matter what time of my cycle I was in. Over the past 15 years, a huge focus of mine has been eating healthy foods, but what I didn't understand until I delved into Ayuvedic and traditional Chinese Medicine readings was that I was ignoring the types of (healthy) foods that would truely nourish my body according to my monthly cycle. I was intrigued!

My latest podcast chat with Dr Bree is one to tune into as she'll explain the different seasons of a woman's cycle and how you can honour your body physically, emotionally and spiritually during these times. 

Dr Bree is a Mumma to her little boy Ziggy and Doctor Of Traditional Chinese Medicine and has a strong interest in women's health, treating different hormonal conditions, fertility, pregnancy, post partum care and menopause.
