Last episode, we introduced the concept of cycle syncing, or the practice of adjusting your diet, exercise, and habits to align with the menstrual cycle and best support how you feel. In part 1, we cover the follicular phase & ovulatory phase (check it out if you haven’t yet!). In this episode, we discuss the luteal phase and the menstrual phase.

Did you know that the connection between the right and left hemispheres of the brain strengthens during the menstrual phase, or that you may find intense cardio-based exercise more challenging in your luteal phase? We discuss all of these fascinating facts & ways our bodies change over the month, and how you can “biohack” your body to optimize your life and live each day even more in tune with your body.

Stay tuned from the beginning if you’d like to hear:

• details from our recent trip to Tulum, Mexico (btw, we meant *Kundalini yoga)
• strange health issues that arose from the sun
• our favorite ecosystems
• a sudden friend emergency that interrupts recording (she's okay!)
• Jamie’s thoughts on parking lots & cheeze-it's

Or, skip to 25 min for the start of cycle syncing content.

As always, please message us with any episode or research requests! @passthecompassion on instagram. xoxo and happy valentine’s day!
