Cycle syncing: understanding the different phases of your menstrual cycle so that you can adjust your lifestyle and self-care with your body's natural rhythm. 

As your hormone levels fluctuate throughout your cycle, so does your mood, energy, and skin. By educating yourself on what each phase may bring, you can give your body the self-care it needs to feel nourished and supported. Here are a few tips for practicing cycle syncing: Skincare: During your follicular phase (days 1-7), your skin may be clearer and more radiant. This is a great time to use exfoliating and brightening products. During your luteal phase (days 15-28), your skin may be more prone to breakouts. Focus on hydrating and calming products during this time. Exercise: During your follicular phase, you may have more energy and feel motivated to exercise harder. During your luteal phase, you may feel more tired and want to focus on lower-intensity exercises. Wellness: During your follicular phase, you may feel more outgoing and social. During your luteal phase, you may feel more introverted and need more time to yourself. By adjusting your self-care and lifestyle habits to match your body's natural rhythm, you can feel better, more confident, and in control at every stage of your cycle. Here is an example of how to apply cycle syncing to your daily routine: Follicular phase: Morning: Wake up early and go for a run or do some other high-intensity exercise. Skincare: Use a gentle cleanser and exfoliator, followed by a lightweight moisturizer and sunscreen. Work: Set ambitious goals for the day and be proactive in meetings. Evening: Go out to dinner with friends or attend a social event. Luteal phase: Morning: Wake up a little later and do some gentle stretching or yoga. Skincare: Use a hydrating cleanser and moisturizer, followed by a calming serum or mask. Work: Focus on tasks that don't require a lot of creativity or energy. Evening: Take a warm bath or read a book before bed. This is just a sample routine, and you can adjust it to fit your own needs and preferences. The most important thing is to listen to your body and give it what it needs at each stage of your cycle.
