HORMONAL BLISS: The Power is Within You!

So I've got another little story for you about those crappy menstrual cramps I used to get. One day I was so frustrated with suffering every month that I scheduled an appointment with a doctor at the clinic on campus.  I figured that since I had been struggling with debilitating menstrual cramps for so long,  it was time to get a doctor's professional opinion. After having a seat and pouring out my soul to the doctor about my problem, I received a very unhelpful response. Basically I was told that no one is bothering to research PMS or menstrual cramps because women aren't dying from it. There was nothing she could do for me. She then recommended that I switch from Tylenol to Advil for pain relief. And off I went. Very unsatisfying.
Luckily she was wrong. Very, very wrong. Ok, wait. She wasn't totally wrong - I mean there was nothing she could do for me, but there was plenty that I could have done for myself to balance my hormones and heal my cycle. It would have been nice to be pointed in the right direction though.
Healing PMS, menopausal distress, fertility issues, cramps etc means looking closely at three elements: 

How you are eating.
How you are moving.
 How you are thinking. 

Hormonal health requires balancing body, mind and spirit. This concept has become so cliche - but I am living proof that if you are earnest and committed to creating balance in your life, it can be done, and it will result in Hormonal Bliss.
The countdown is on - only 9 more days until The Hormonal Bliss Project is launched and available to help all women (and those who love them) achieve health, harmony and bliss. You don't need to suffer every month - and the good news is that when you heal your PMS, you are also setting the stage for a happy and blissful menopause too. If you've already entered the menopausal years, it's not too late! Your body is giving you another chance to nurture and honour your femininity and your needs.
GOOD NEWS! I am offering a scholarship to the Hormonal Bliss Project! Just shoot a short clip telling me the best (or worst) advice you've ever received for helping you cope with PMS or Menopause and post it on the Keeping It Real Natural Living Facebook page. When the course launches on October 21st I will pick one winner!  Good luck.

HORMONAL BLISS PROJECT For Painless PMS & Menopause COMING SOON!

What do you mean painless PMS & Menopause?! There's no such thing!
Let me tell you a little story. 
I used to get really bad menstrual cramps. I mean really, really bad, like to the point where I couldn't do anything unless I was on pain medication. Needless to say this was very disturbing and disruptive. Then one day, about 10 years ago, I decided to do a little experiment. I had recently read Eckhart Tolle's book "The Power of Now" and it totally changed the way I perceived my reality. I thought I'd apply the concept presented in his book to the way I experienced the pain of my menstrual cycle. I scheduled off the entire day and decided to just be present with the pain. Instead of fearing it, dreading it, and trying to fight it, I thought I'd play with fully experiencing it. So I did - and the cramps disappeared. I know, it's amazing. It still is amazing. I have never had to medicate myself for cramps ever since that day. 
This is just one example of how empowering it can be when women listen to their bodies and learn to work with their bodies instead of loathing, fearing and suffering because of them.
If you too suffer from menstrual irregularities, PMS, breast tenderness, uncomfortable pre-menopausal symptoms, or infertility, then The Hormonal Bliss Project is for you, and it's launching on October 21st!

This course explores the four main phases of a woman's life that are related to and defined by the expression of her fertility and sexuality. We explore how what happens during and around these transitions sets the theme for a woman's experience of her self in her new roles throughout her life.
You will discover how a healthy menstrual cycle can help set the stage for a blissful menopause!
We explore the keys to Hormonal Balance through Diet and Nutrition, Exercise, Yoga, Natural Living and Emotional Wellness.
I am very excited to share a healthy and holistic perspective on women's reproductive health. Despite what you may have been told, your reproductive system is designed to function optimally without causing you a lot of pain and distress. Our modern lifestyle is the source of unhealthy dietary habits, disease, and incredible amounts of stress which are reflected in our bodies and emotions. In this course I share effective and natural tools and strategies you need to live a healthy and balanced life, no matter what time of the month or season of your life.
