As a boater, you appreciate the dynamic nature of a river. But do you ever consider the flow of your hormones and how they reflect in your sport?

The menstrual cycle is composed of four phases, each phase lending itself to a way of living that optimizes how you feel and perform. When you can work with your physiology to identify your needs and desires for that day and week— rather than expecting them to be unchanging— you can move, eat work and play in a way that feels happier, healthier and easier!

Feel more sluggish in your workouts the week before your period? It’s not just you-- it’s biological! Your body’s response to exercise changes after you ovulate.

You have a built-in system for productivity at work; you just have to know the signs and how to react to them. Every cycle, you get a chance to look at the big picture, plan out the details, reach the goals and analyze the results. It’s all in your four phases.
