wonderful to hear!

This is really yummy. Thanks so much!

Thanks for sharing. I can say I support you in your efforts and struggles with these things. Also that is a very wonderful creative idea with the ring in my opinion. Also I noticed you were wondering about endometriosis if anyone has it here well my mother has it very badly and she ends up in the hospital many times the only thing she can do is take 5 or 6 Advil at the signs of the first cramps and have a relaxing bath or try to sleep in a bit. She has passed it many times and got very sick and puked from having this she also went through a phase of passing out alot because its connected to her vagus nerve. It's a very rare disease though but you could get tested for it. I recommend Chinese medicine though.

wanted to say again-- this is really excellent for insomnia!

I'm happy to hear you like it. Have you tried them yet?

Hi! I feel I can truly relate to you because I am a 22 year old virgin (I'll be 23 in April). I had a rough relationship with my father and this put me off dating because I worried I would subconsciously continue the cycle and choose someone like him. I refused all dates, even when this guy I liked asked me to homecoming and senior year I turned down a prom date. I also have never been kissed or held hands and I am "behind" in some experiences I would eventually like to have. I want to save sex for my marriage night, but I do have...feelings and desires sometimes, even if just for a cuddling session. I'm just now moving forward to be more accepting towards romantic advances so that I can try to achieve a healthy romantic relationship with a man, without worrying so much about the future and in essence, trusting myself to choose wisely. Like you, I've used erotica and felt guilty about it. It's frowned upon in my faith and I don't want to rely on it as it feels like an unhealthy substitute for a real emotional connection. We just have to be patient and learn to trust in ourselves. I've bought a purity ring with "Don't Awaken Love" (from Song of Solomon) inscribed on it to help remind me of what I believe and to remain strong in my convictions. I find that engaging in another activity or seeking out a friend or family member to watch a movie or play a game (anything to distract me) helps when the urge arises.

This is a really neat idea!

Very good and challenging... But that is how we progress.... with a little push from the challenge side of the world. I read somewhere that the most productive way to help is to send good energy. Waves of good energy support more then been in person with immediate help.

Thank you :-) I love Bach's flower essences, this reminded me I've got to restock!

This is excellent for insomnia. I've used it for 2 months. I noticed a more restful sleep right away after beginning use of it. I have not noticed that it makes me remarkably happier--and neither did a friend of mine when he took it. However, my PMS has decreased--maybe from all the great sleep I've been getting! Also, it works great for fibromyalgia pain!

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing Elaria!!

Wonderful!! Thank you so much, Elaria!!

Sounds painful. Proceed carefully.

seems pretty easy! my hip flexor is pretty bad, hips inflexible when compared with average people... guess i really need that frog pose... remember doing it for stretching, hard to distract myself from the pain

I remember seeing some toothpastes made of olive leaf extract, was thinking maybe i can have some chopped olive leaves in it as well? not sure if it works though

love this. Where did your friend get the cards?

That's wonderful! Please come back and share your experience, good or bad okay? :)

I'm going to try this today.

i think you do a fantastic job of living by it, jing. keep up the good work

lol

Thank you very much :) I will be getting this book very soon. I really appreciate the suggestions.

Thanks ! I finally got this book in the mail. I haven't got to far in yet but the basic anatomy and energy types. Is there any section in this book inperticular that has helped you through your journey jing? I found alot near the middle and end about making love with a partner but as a single person I'm not quite there yet.

Thank you very much :) I will be getting this book very soon. I really appreciate the suggestions.

Nettle is an excellent at detoxing liver and balancing many female imbalances. Learn more here: http://www.cycleharmony.com/pms-symptoms/healing-pms-and-menstrual-problems-with-nettle-tea?view=article

Rose buds move Qi, which is excellent to drink it premenstrual. It helps reduce PMS and lift up emotions.

I ordered mine. Would love to make one myself, but I'm not good at sewing lol

I agree with Jenny. You should not feel ashamed about your sexual energy. It's an indication of the vitality and creativity within you. It's a gift and all you need to do is to learn to channel it in a productive and creative way. Since you're a spiritual healer, I'd like to recommend a book by a Taoist master Mantak Chia. He has a really good explanation on female sexual energy and how to transform it to nourish our body and spirit. It's one of the books that have influenced me on my own journey. The book is called Healing Love Through the Tao: Cultivating Female Sexual Energy. Here is a link to Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1594770689/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=1594770689&linkCode=as2&tag=cyclharm-20

Glad you enjoyed it Christen. It's a fun read, and inspiring too!

It's one of my favorite books too. It's incredibly simple and powerful, but difficult to live by at the same time. I try to live by them personally. Not always succeed, but always do my best - the fourth agreement :)

I haven't used this personally, except on my skin. It seems that it works for some ladies and not for others. I think it's one of things that one has to experiment and see if it works for you.

lol it does sound pretty healthy. Happy you're going to try it! Tell us what you think :)

Wow! Doesn't this sound like the healthiest and yummiest soup! I'll have to make one this week :)

These sounds so fun! It makes me smile already :)

Excellent! I've heard and found baking soda to be much easier on the gums. Have fun with it!

Yes, I know it's working, cause my father did it, but ewithout essenial oils. Only baking soda and sea salt. I found it a bit agressive for the gums. But with some oil, yes, i will definately try it. Thsnx

lolol isn't that cute?!

LOL! Oh my goodness, made my day!

Do you use this personally, Jing?

I love these!! Thanks for posting!

by the way, Vild i'd make it the desired thinkness that you think wouldn't run off your face. Hope this helps.

:D

Thanks! I hope you enjoy it. My aunt's favorite book--she says "live by these and you WILL have a happy life." let me know what you thought of it. :)

Interesting! I agree that molasis is better than sugar lol what do you think?

Thank You Christen! Always a pleasure to find out what you recommend to read:)

Interesting....I like the part of reading Aristotle:))))) I actually do sing in the morning...Thank You for sharing, will find this book!

Thank You Ladies! Perfect adding Jennifer, I was thinking about doing something with my hands, to stay focused on a single task. Good exercise for concentration.

Thank you I am going to try these things thank you so much. I also just found out about chaste tea monks use it to reduce sex drive and apparently I have been working on mindful practice so meditation may help me the next time.

This is interesting :)

Wonderful! Spread the word on it's amazing benefits! I'll send you a recipe for homemade shampoo for dandruff. maybe he would enjoy experimenting a little :)

Love this. Thank you for sharing! Got any more, girlie? :D

Terrific! It's a fun book. Great idea how she did it. I think you'll enjoy it. :) come back and let us know your thoughts, k?

are you referring to the shaking tree exercise?

It's been on my reading list for a while now! I'm glad its getting such rave reviews!

Hello Darling, First off, never be ashamed of your bodies cravings. And craving sex is so amazingly natural, especially during your cycle or during ovulation. Like you, I believed in not having sex until marriage. I waited until that time, through personal convictions, to be a virgin when I married. No mean feat as I'm a bit of a "spicy lady" myself. Even craving food is natural - but your body IS craving a certain kind of food, have you identified it yet? Mine has always been the stereo-typical sugar/chocolate. Figure out what you're craving and enjoy it! If you don't know for certain what you're craving eat in moderation - eat healthy. Decide to pig out on hummus and carrots rather than a big mac. Now, depending on what your convictions and personal morals are - masturbation is not a bad alternative. I totally understand your avoidance to porn and I personally agree with you from abstaining from viewing it. However, if masturbation helps you get through those times of heat, then I think it may be a good alternative to burning up! But please don't be ashamed! The female orgasm is a wonderful thing, and while it may not be the 'type' of orgasm you're looking for, it may help seep off some of your sexual tension. If that really doesn't seem like a preferred alternative, there are tried and true distractions. - Work out! Break a sweat! - Cold showers - Get out and about! Don't have too much "alone at home" time. - Stay up until you're ready to sleep when you get to bed. Hm, off the top of my head I cannot think of a good herb that could abate some of your sexual tension, but I'm sure there is one! I'll do some research and get back to you.... Anyway, you are not the only one! When I'm ovulating, I'm extremely frisky, and I totally understand how frustrating it can be. :) Peace, - Jenny

I've been bellydancing for about 3 years now, and love it! I had joined a troupe (arabic) and was dancing weekly. I started taking lessons again, and was asked to join another group of dancers, but I just don't think I can commit to that right now. My little one is still pretty little, and I'm a full time SAHM so... That being said, I do still do my weekly dancing lessons and am positive the working out and shaking have been one of the main reasons for my periods feeling better. :) Thanks so much for the link!

Thank you!

LOVE this! You're so awesome. thanks for posting!

Wonderful :-)

Thank You Christen. I love lavender. Will tell my dad about its healing qualities for dandruff. will have to buy lavender essential oil first to present him:))))

she's terrific. what dvds do you like best from her? weights is a great idea. i'll try that. thanks.

Oh my gosh, I love her too I have used her dvd for years I turn on nice music grab little 2 lb waits and walk 5 miles when I don't feel like exercising or going outside in the cold. It really is great

That's so awesome!!!! So happy you like it.

sounds good, will try that ;-)

thanks this is really good :)

Did you see Rachel's post?? She gives an Etsy link for cloth pads. Check it out.

Awesome! Its tasty then?

Did you make yours jing?

I have switched to cotton cloth pads a while ago. I love it and can't ever go back to the disable pads. Mine is red - a way to celebrate my bleeding!

Hawthorne berries aid digestion. Good digestion is intimately related to healthy menstrual cycles :)

You're right! Flaxseed oil has the highest content of omega 3. It's the best oil really. I haven't used flaxseed oil much. Gonna to change that :)

since yours is so heavy you can't help the landfill part :)

I've thought about it and decided to sqtick with shop-boughht pads. My flow is so heavy that I have to use night pads for the first two or three days. I've got a moon cup, but find it uncomfortable to use. I'm sorry to say that I'm adding to the landfill :-(

http://www.cycleharmony.com/tea/a-simple-and-effective-tea-for-pms-relief I asked the same thing :D

So what exactly do the hawthorn berries do??

Great adds! I just shared this on our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/cycleharmony

Give it a try and let us know. Thanks for the link. I love the little pouch to keep it in. SO cute. :)

http://tipnut.com/free-pattern-for-washable-feminine-menstrual-pads/ Here's a list of resources and types you can make yourself. You can decide to put a PUL liner (think what reusable diapers are made from) but most women (and depending on your flow) are happy with just cotton. :) Who knows, I've gathered the material, maybe I should really just sit down and make it. Peace, - Jenny

Anti- infammatory. . . Wonderful news! I always learn lots from you, jing!

Ooooo yumm what symptoms do raspberry and nettle take care of? Thank you for sharing, ladies

Perfect! All sounds relaxing.

What material is it made from? I've never heard of such a thing. Awesome question, girlie! Let's dig into this more

Wakes up the body at your desk and also is good for motivation to begin a workout. Sometimes it's so hard to get going!! But this will help :)

What a lovely idea! I have wildcrafted quite a large amount of rosehips and have dried them. I should be drinking it more often - or at least when I'm on my menses. Right now I'm mostly about Raspberry leaf and Nettle. Thank you so much for your suggestion! Peace, - JJ

I thought maybe I could add to this: - doing calm handiwork (knitting,embroidery,crocheting,spinning,weaving) - Reading uplifting literature - Polishing silver (I find very soothing for some reason) - Lying in "Child's Pose" - Praying - Listening to a fire crackle, water fall or chimes in the wind.

This is awesome - can be easily fit into a break from the desk. Thanks much!

I haven't been taking Omega 3 fish oil for quite some time now. They're also anti-inflammatory, a great supplement! Alternatively you can find it in cold-water fish such as salmon or flaxseed oils. Thanks for sharing Christen!

These are awesome yoga poses! I happen to like to most of them. Gonna to do them more often. Thanks for sharing Christen!

Very nice :-)

i LOVE this!

fabulous ideas!

That's right!! I'm happy you like it!

cute :) thanks for sharing!

Thank You Christen. Its perfect for New York winter season!

wonderful. I will definitely give this exercise a try. Yes, most of the time in and out through nose. it's positive effects are quite sudden . . .love it!

yess!! amazingly tasty ones! Happy you enjoy it as well. You have awesome taste, girlie!

This sounds wonderful. I used to drink a tulsi tea by yogi tea, but I thibk they've stopped making it now. Basil is, as I am sure you know, holy in Hinduism, and there are many myths connected with the plant. I love it, it has so many tasty uses!

I always breathe in through my nose, usually out through nose, but sometimes through mouth. It gives a greater momentum, I feel, but most of the time it's great with a calm nose-breath. What about you?

is this hibiscus warm or cold tea? starbucks even has a few yummy hibiscus drinks that have been my favorite. I love that you mentioned it :)

love this! are you breathing just through your nose?

My love recently brought me some hibiscus back from his journey abroad. Hibiscus is often blended with rosehip, but very interesting to explore on its own. I think it will be another favourite of mine. Today I used it to fortify my emotional self, as I felt a little wobbly. I've got this huge ceramic mug I always use for special teas, it's good to hold and keeps my tea the perfect temperature. Drinking the tea was nurturing and lovely, and I felt grounded and well-balanced afterwards. Definitely one to use for ritual and ceremonial purposes :-)

YES! Love all your thoughts on this. You're so right!!! maybe you should record the storm and share it with us :)

lol i hope you enjoy the poses, just ignore the dr lol

I haven't tried this yummy mask myself, i saw the recipe in a magazine and wanted to share it with you guys for your own experiences. i'll make note of that in the posting now that you mention it. so good luck! let me know what it does for you.

This looks great, Christen, I'll have to give it a try. I make my own scrubs (blender, oatmeal, coconut, salt, honey etc) and have been thinking about trying a mask for some time. What are the main benefits of this particular mask? And how thick do you make it?

Meditation and visualisation is so useful! It really makes a difference. I also practice mindfulness, and tonight it takes the form of listebibg to the storm that's raging outside. There's nothing like being snug in bed, relaxing and waiting for sleep to arrive on a stormy winternight. It epitomises 'cosy' for me, at least!

This looks interesting, although I think only a man would divide pms into four clearly identifiable categories... But well done to the doc for trying :-) I also really like the warrior poses, and downward facing dog, in my premenstrual time, helping me to prepare.

Some of them sound sinfully delicious for PMS relief. Thanks for sharing Christen :)

It's interesting that you pick rose hip tea. Rose buds are a Chinese herb that helps move Qi/Prana/energy and calms the spirit. It's awesome for PMS too! I love that you make it a ritual - beautiful!

I love those affirmations. Thanks for sharing Christen!

Yes, it's a very feminine tea; isn't it? So fun. :)

This is a really great exercise.

Thank you for sharing this video Diana!
