#1

In chapters 4, 5, and 6, you’ll learn how to apply the Cycle Syncing Method around diet, fitness, and time management. This is where biohacking meets self-care. You’ll learn how to use food to support your hormones during each phase of your cycle, reveal the secrets to getting better results with less sweat, and introduce you to planning tools that will help you achieve more with less effort.

#2

The four-part blueprint that your female body follows is not being properly addressed by conventional health care services. We need to get back into sync with this blueprint, and then we can pursue the life we’re meant to live as women.

#3

I loved my eighth-grade biology class. I was extremely excited to learn about human reproduction, and I was ready to read about it. I was expecting a great day.

#4

I was shocked by the tone of the textbook, which was extremely lighthearted and glossed over the major aspects of the process. I was also disappointed by the lack of positive information about sperm production.

#5

The fact that girls and boys are not taught about the female reproductive process is tragic and just wrong. It’s eye-opening to realize that the education we receive about our bodies, from how it’s described in textbooks to how it’s handled in the medical community, supports and deepens female oppression.

#6

The premenstrual phase can be a time of insight, clarity, and direction. It can fill you with a can-do, get-it-done attitude and a desire to clean house. When you’re conditioned to believe that pain and problems are par for the course, you’re prevented from looking for solutions.

#7

The truth is that you don’t have to suffer from period pain. Your body produces two types of prostaglandins that ease period pain: PgE1 and PgE3. When you consume the right foods for your cycle, you provide the building blocks your body needs to produce these good prostaglandins.

#8

The truth is that what you experience when you’re on the pill is not a real period. It’s a withdrawal bleed that bears no resemblance to the natural period that comes at the end of your monthly hormonal cycle.

#9

The idea that we don’t need periods anymore is false. Periods are critical to our health and well-being, and tampering with that system by intentionally skipping your period comes with serious side effects and health dangers.

#10

You can take action to promote faster healing and get rid of your period pain. Just as you wouldn’t let your cold linger unnecessarily, you don’t have to put up with problem periods.

#11

Women are inherently abundant. We can make multiple babies, we bleed every month, we produce milk, and we even secrete vaginal bacteria that’s vital for a baby’s optimal gut health.

#12

We have been living in a man’s world, and this reality is bound to change. Our cultural values prioritize masculine energy of individuality and linear progression at the expense of all else, which is reflected in the breakdown of our communities and the disregard for the health of our planet.

#13

The way we live our lives is based on a cycle of testosterone and cortisol levels that lines up with a typical male hormonal rhythm. However, women’s bodies don’t work this way. Their energy is not static day to day and week to
