This was very beautiful. I have never heard someone talk about something like this in such a beautiful way. Thank you!
wow :) thank you.
exactly :)
I agree 🙌🏼
My thoughts exactly, and how sacred women are...
I was thinking the same…this topic is usually discussed in a very sciency, practical way and focused on “overcoming” the challenges that come with PMS rather than being at peace and understanding it. I really felt peaceful and calm hearing your words!
I’m going thru Lutéal phase now (why im here) and my mood is sooo down and I can’t get anything done at work 🥺 I felt so shitty and guilty but this really makes me feel better…I wish the world was a more supportive place for women and our biology and rhythms.
You validated the feeling I get every luteal phase which is that the current system is not made for us. Its only tricked us into thinking we have some say.
How should we cope with this anger and disconnect every month?
You are so beautiful inside and out! well spoken - thank you
I am so so happy I found you you’re speaking in the exact way I want to be spoken to and let me just say when you said that’s why we feel more “soft” I am immediately thought that was adorable. I spend a lot of time crying over my softness durning this time (and bloatedness) but now I’m just thinking about it how beautiful that is so thank you for that insight and I really want to do a lot of research on the history of the cycle because that was just fascinating it makes me cope with day-to-day life better
Hey! I read you have bloatedness in your luteal phase. Have you ever tried herbal teas or high potassium foods to help you with this?
@@CycleCoachAcademy I mostly just take magnesium, avoid coffee, and sip on ginger tea in the morning. Any specific ones you recommend ?
I have a very personal question to make...I can see that before the period I am "watery" down there, Is It normal?
It is very ironic that you posted this at such a time when I deeply needed it! Last year, I decided to fully embrace my body and went off birth control. After months of hormonal imbalance, I feel like I am beginning to become more balanced hormonally. Now that I am no longer on birth control, I have A LOT more dreams and I dream much more lucidly.
I am currently in the luteal phase myself.. I am expecting my period at the next full moon. I have been very very tired and needed to take many naps. Despite this, I still find myself able to accomplish what I need to in my studies.
Anyway, I’m not sure why I shared all of that with ya’ll but I have to admit I have been dreading these symptoms. Sometimes I have quite bad dreams, and I dread going to sleep. In fact, I just woke up from a bad dream. I have dreaded this phase especially because of the symptoms I experience. I’m not quite sure what I need to be learning from them, but this video has really reminded me to trust my body. You have reminded me to trust myself and accept that it is all supposed to happen. Thank you!!! Sending love & positivity 💛
wow! :) ~~ so beautiful lady, thank you very much for sharing. I feel honored to receive these words and hear your experience. what a sweet and deep process we get to go through each month. I am grateful you've listening to your body and spirit and feel the call to be with that process as organically as possible. much love!
I used to have bad dreams when the bedroom was too warm!
I loved your connection of ancestors into your talk. It’s so lost in our society. So much appreciation for your view 🌙🦋
I really appreciate your inclusive language and gentle spirit with approaching this topic, thank you
:)
Yes thank you Megan 🙏 I truly appreciate the inclusive language too 💜
Eating grass fed beef and liver often along with making sure to get vitamin D from the sun and avoiding sugar and grains cured my severe PMS almost completely! loved this video so much, it’s so important that women reconnect and realize the beauty of their cycles and fertility 💕
Love that you’re doing a series on the menstrual cycle and that more people are learning to honor it instead of power through it. It’s a gift that I can stay home with my children while my partner works. This way my family and I get to live in the natural cycles of the earth and our bodies. Keep shedding light on the power that bleeding humans have so we might all one day honor and live by it. 🌒🌕🌘
Thank you for this - it’s wonderful to hear my own biology being validated in such beautiful and mystic words ❤️ excited for the later installments 🙏🏻
Evening primrose helped me immensely, as did calcium magneseum zinc, from ovulation to menses. Thankyou for this clarity& empowerment.
mmm :)
I've been following you since before Bridgette was born and I have absolutely nothing against you, but I just had to say that your science isn't completely correct. For example, the corpus luteum is the ruptured follicle that held the ovum (egg), that's true, but it never leaves the ovary until it disintegrates. You combined the ovum and the corpus luteum by saying that it disintegrates in the fallopian tube. What causes menstruation is not the process of the ovum disintegrating, but the corpus luteum. When the corpus luteum has disintegrated, the production of progesterone stops. If someone ovulated and the egg became fertilized, the blastocyst burrowing into the endometrial lining causes HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) which then communicates to the corpus luteum to keep producing progesterone ("pro-gestation") until 8-12 weeks of pregnancy when the placenta takes over. Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler and the Fifth Vital Sign by Lisa Hendrickson-Jacks are invaluable resources that every cycling human should read. Sometimes you have to read non-spiritual books to find the most (correct) spiritual resources to draw on. If I didn't have the science, I wouldn't be able to connect as well spiritually. It's just a little thing, but Fertility Awareness is super important to me, and I feel it is a right (not a privilege) to understand what is happening in our own bodies. Also, if you are making this a whole series, I would love it if you could talk about how you experience the energetics of anovulatory cycles (a cycle in which you don't meet the estrogen threshold to ovulate, kind of a very long follicular phase, caused by adolescence, illness, travel, breastfeeding, coming off hormonal contraception, etc.), which I haven't seen anyone talk about. Cycle on!
What about pmdd? I really want to take this period as you do but I feel extremely weak, dissappointed, angry, hungry, a mess. If i could i would sleep through this period. Im OK with being in a coma as well.
it's very confusing to me when you (and so many people) mention ancient cultures as ones that we should look up to and exalt them. In almost all ancient cultures women were sold as slaves, prostitutes and child-brides by their own families... Mesopotamia, Persia, Greece, Rome, ancient Asia, Byzantine, ancient Russia , Islamic cultures and vast mayority of indigenous were incredibly cruel to women and girls...Many of them murdered female children, pederasty and incest were pretty normal, mayority of women were treated like animals.. Women had to work very hard and for the mayority of them the only roll in life was to raise children and stay at home (and field) working...In so many of these cultures women were just one more "thing" in the housholds with many brides... I'm always in awe when people make it sound romantic and exalt the ancient cultures and their treatment of women! Even today there are so many countries where women are mistreated and less than an animal, look at many places in Asia, Africa..."Our" western countries are where the women recive the best treatment and are most celebrated and free in history of human kind! If you don't belive me move to Saudi Arabia- you would be required to wear abaya and couldn't drive, among other things...
Ancient cultures means well prior to colonization, way back to pagan or druid times when women in most cultures were not treated that way. Women owned land (hence why they were later accused of being witches so their land could be taken by the Crown), ran businesses and were equal participants in groups that made decisions for various tribes and villages. Even in most of the Middle East women drove, didn't wear Hijabs and could be University professors until recently, it only changed in the last several decades when the Taliban took over their countries. Many women in those countries grew up with mothers who were free, but now their daughters are not as it changed over one generation from brutal takeovers.
Exactly what I am referring to. Thank you sister.
You are such a light! 💫 I love your energy!
as are you ❤️🌟
@@atone.beauty 😊❤
You're relatively extremely hot as a torch.
Amazing concept for this video! I’m so excited for the next episode!!!! Keep it up this is so helpful thank youuuuuuuu 💓💓💓
yayyy :)
thank you for this education!!
my pleasureee.
Meagan, I usually don't comment on videos but I had to do it on this one. I've been following you for years now and I love you. I see that all you create for us is purely out of love so I thank you.
I developed a disorder (orthorexia) that I'm now recovering due to statements like this 17:17
You live in an unprocessed life in the middle of nature where whole food/organic way of eating it's natural for you. But I want you to know that a lot of your viewers live in the middle of polluted cities with highly processed lives.
I know you promulgate this "clean" "whole" way of living out of love, but I just ask you to be careful and avoid "stay away"s and "never"s because it fuels fear towards certain types of foods, foods that you may be far away from and you probably don't crave due to your lifestyle, but that most of the people face everyday and desire. And it's ok. As long as you're eating it out of love it's ok to eat processed foods. Of course you can try to choose healthier choices but if you can't, eat that damn donut. It's fine. Sometimes you just have to eat something that is less healthier for the body but that soothes the mental health.
Thank you so much. Keep evolving and sharing your wisdom with us meanwhile.
Love and light.
Thank you this is so beautiful I have been bearing and nursing babies for the last 18 years having a new little one every other year so I have not had a lot of experience knowing my body well without growing a being inside me. So at 43 I am just now starting to recognize these different phases my body is experiencing . Women need to understand how powerful and beautiful God has made us.
A beautiful video, thank you Meagan! Society has had such a large effect on so many things, especially menstration! Back to the good old days I say ☺️
yep ~~ gotta get back to how it was
" I AM BEAUTY 🦋 " said it sang it won't forget it
❤️❤️
I have watched your content for years, and I think this is my favourite video of yours! I have been learning a lot of the same in my life - I'm a nutritionist who has struggled with what I viewed as hormonal imbalances all of my adult life, and it has been refreshing to learn more about WHY my body and mind fluctuate the ways they do. "This is your body speaking to you." YES! Thank you so much for sharing, and I'm really looking forward to learning your thoughts on the other phases.
Tara Frey-Durston I am so so happy to hear this 😌🌟 you’re allowed to be different week to week ~ it doesn’t always denote that something is imbalanced 💛
I love how you mention that modern day doesn't support us slowing down. This is the hardest part for me! I'll remember what you say about living by the seasons in my next luteal phase.
I love this video thank you for sharing. Just one thing…it saddens me to hear someone speak so beautifully about the divine feminine in a world that doesn’t honor femininity but in the same breath says “menstruating humans”. Menstruating WOMEN. Only women menstruate, ovulate, get pregnant, and bring life into this world. Let’s honor that we as women are the only ones who experience this. This is our biology as you stated.
There are humans who menstruate and can have children who do not identify as women. It doesn't hurt you or anyone else to be inclusive.
if anyone has any luteal phase routine, ritual, meal ideas please share!
Luteal phase routines: solo-date, easier movement routine, bolongese sauce, bone broth & winter squash! What luteal phase ritual routines do you have so far?
I started getting period in every 2 weeks .. it's been happening from last 2 months... I researched about it... I found about luteal phase ... I'm 18 .. I don't know who to tell ... How to tell... I'm currently not in a good relationship with my mother... I told my boyfriend he didn't understand anything... Idk what to do
Go see a doctor! Most likely you have some sort of hormone imbalance or something... Its really not normal to bleed that often so you really should get it checked out
God's Design is so amazing. Thank you for this video.
Baby, you glow! Mahalo for this.. sooooooul helpful.. xo
lurrrvv ya.
This was like painfully wonderful to watch. Everything makes sense and it confirmed so much that I was already trying to solidify. Wow, thank yooou. So happy I found this channel. 💜
Currently experiencing my time of month and I needed to hear this. So introspective and comforting the way you explained everything. Thank you 😊
How did your last luteal phase go with these tips?
Beautiful Meagan, i'm so appreciative for your presence in my life and really relate and learn a lot each time 🙏❤
I am glad I have come back to your channel. I have to admit I drifted away after your Video about eating meat again. With all the other vegan youtubers going back to eating meat I put you in the same box. I did not trust what I saw anymore and decided to quit a lot of subscribtions.
Now I see how much you care about the topics you talk about, and I love hearing you talk about them.
You lost me at your food recommendations. Coconut oil raises cholesterol and is not a health food, it contains saturated fat. As for animal products they are not only super unhealthy (one of the leading causes of heart disease, containing cholesterol and saturated fat), but also are the product of exploitation and torture. Dairy products in particular are the product of exploitation of the female reproductive system. Exploitation of others who we perceive as weaker than us is patriarchy mentality. Do we really want those energies in our bodies? How are we supposed to heal the feminine if we participate in exploitative practices? Not to mention you are recommending extremely damaging to the body “foods”.
Thank you, moon. I really needed this. ♥️
you are so very welcome :)
Just here to say thank you for this great and informative video. Currently in my luteal phase and was intuitively lead here ❤
Incredibly empowering and insightful as always. You never fail to make me teary-eyed with your beautiful words. Thank you.
Ever since I had twins I get huge before my period. I usually have a flat tummy, I'm a vegan and don't have much waste or extra fat in that area, but before my period I look two months pregnant. A little girl even asked if I'm pregnant a couple days before my period.
I wish every woman grew up with this information. Wow that was absolutely incredible. My brain sees this time completely differently now wow. Thank you ❤
PLEASE create a video for the rest of the cycle this is my FAVORITE cycle video but there’s only luteal😅❤
Thank you for this video💗 I hate my cycle less now
This was very helpful, thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you soul much blessed be. This was very comforting and empowering
Why do I get depressed during this time?
"stay away from processed sugar 100% of the time" the privilege 🥴
I needed to hear this today. I’m very tired and wondering why I’m not taking action to pack so I can move on the 1st but i honored myself and sat and ate and watched a movie instead. Oh and then I took a nap! Thank you for telling me why. I am definitely in this phase of my cycle. Much love ❤️
Tiffany 😌😌😌😌
Yeeeesss I love Luteal phase's magic! pointing me out everything that bothers me and that needs to change in the moment love love love
yesss that's the good magic 🌟
Do you have videos for the other 3 phases?
Wow I love this explanation so much
I AM BEAUTY 🦋
yes you are!
I love that you are talking about this. I so look forward to the rest of the series. Thank you💜
really feeling the pudge. LOL
I love this video and your words I absolutely agree on how our bodies are capable of incredible things. Women's bodies are so precious and do things that we don't even know about..
Thank you, u answered so many of my questions of whats happening with my body n mood during luteal phase. Love the autumn winter explanation.
Hi there! I found this video resource yesterday and I am absolutely enlightened by your energy and all this amazing information that for sure provides compassion towards my own magical nature and a lot of surrender to it.
Thank you SO much. I took many notes and feel very inspired to find my own way through this phase - now with more knowledge and understanding of it. 💗
I loved how you said “The Divine Design of Mother Nature”. The act of honouring is so so powerful. It is a reverence to what is, a full acceptance of our nature, our wisdom and our truth. Truth is nature 🙏
Thank you again Meagan, excited to learn more from you! 💛
“I AM BEAUTY 🦋”
Thanks Meghan! Much love
you are very welcome :) love to you
In my luteal phase right now. Love this video and your essence. Thank you 🙌🏼💕✨
This is perfect , thank you so much for this talk. A talk I needed years ago as a young girl, one I’ll share with my sisters and my future daughter.
Love this so much
Thank you so much for this. You have no idea how badly I needed to hear this right now.
Amazing video!!!!
you are so inspiring, strong, wise and bold
my luteal phase is at 38 days according to my cycle tracking app.. anyone know what this means ?
This is a great question! If your entire menstrual cycle is about 38 days, this is slightly beyond the "normal" range which is about 27-32 days. This could be due to possibly a slightly delayed ovulation, there are many causes for delayed ovulation though. If only your luteal phase is 38 days, then this would mean you might be having a 45+ day long menstrual cycle which is vastly out of the "normal" range and it might be a great time to talk to a doctor. I'd love to talk to you more if you need any help understanding more about your cycle!
I feel so grateful to hear these beautiful words, especially as I bleed. Thank you for this kindness, I never heard cycles explained like this when I was young, how grateful I am that this is out here for our sisters ears. All the love to all you divine women.
Words cannot express my gratitude for this series you're cultivating for us. This is so important and has already confirmed so much of what my intuition has been whispering to me during the healing of cycle. So much truth, hope and power in your words!
Thank you ❤
🦋
This is so beautiful and informative! Thank you for sharing this! Can't wait for the others :)
In my luteal phase after ovulation, I get a very painful painful constipation that goes to my back and my abdomen to the point where I have to take ibuprofen. Stool softeners only help temporarily but the pain comes back. I really can’t stand this part of my cycle becus doctors don’t really know what to do about it. It didn’t hurt this bad until I hit 30 and not it’s like a cycle every month.
Hey Boss Beauty Margie! Constipation before your menstrual cycle is usually due to high progesterone. Are you familiar with any hormone balancing foods to support this?
@@CycleCoachAcademy oh ok cool and no I don’t know of any
Thank you very much, Will definitely try and find positive ways to embrace this phase and hopefully improve symptoms through adaptation and awareness.
Hey beauty! How has embracing the luteal phase gone for you so far? What practices have you explored?
Love this series! So thoughtfully and gently said! I’m excited for all of the videos! 💜
Thank you for sharing this video. I've been feeling much more connected to my cycle recently and am currently in this phase. You speak with such peace and calm, it's beautiful.
:)
I’m so grateful to you for this video and understanding of our nature 💜
I AM BEAUTY 🦋
Please consider doing a podcast!
This information is soo important, I'm starting to connect more with my cycle and it's amazing! Thank you for sharing your gifts and speaking your truth Meagan 💕
you are so very welcome :)
Is the follicular phase the same thing as the luteal phase ❤
I believe follicular phase comes after the mensturation and before the ovulation. As far as I know, it goes like; mensturation, follicular, ovulation, luteal and repeat
I love this kind of video
Thank you. ❤️🦋🌺🌙
Amen sister I love this so much ! We are so amazing and beautiful in and out , can’t wait to have a 👶🏻 so neat to learn all these details about our bodies . Your voice and knowledge is so perfect. I needed this today ! Thx so much !! 😘 🙏🏻 🌲 happy fall here in northeast FL.
thank you love :)
Your wisdom is medicine.
Thank You 🙏
This is incredible, thank you! You have so much insight, I would love to see more videos like this in the future. I am currently in my luteal phase and it's lasting much longer than normal. It's been a week since my period due date and I still haven't received it. I've been so worried and confused and feeling like I'm missing something my body is telling me, other than I may be too stressed. I took a pregnancy test and it was negative but I'm still concerned. My period is never this late!
many more videos like this coming in the future :) 🦋 stay patient with the mystery, I know it's hard. take another test in a week and see what happens. it could also just be stress related. try not to worry about it too much, time will tell.
hey girlie, i‘m having this same problem this month. i‘m a week late, have all of my symptoms though. also took pregnancy tests, negative though :( hope you got your period by now!
@@amiejuline2457 hey there :) i found comfort in the fact that there's no way i can expect my body to menstruate on time every single month of every year.. and eventually, when i finally vocalized "i'm done worrying about this!" and i did a 30 minute yoni steam session with wonderful herbs like oregano, yarrow, rosemary, basil, sage, and my citrine crystal ~ then my period came and woke me up later that night! (11 days late) what a relief. have trust and try to release fear and worry. sending love and light to you Amie!
I AM BEAUTY 🦋 :) Bought three of the books you recd by the way and the rest are on my wishlist. Thanks again for all of your insight and info.
I love this video so much. It is bringing me so much comfort. I watched you many years ago when you used to vlog frequently and I come back every now and then to check and see how you and your family are doing. :) Btw, I hope you create more videos about womanhood (in general). You're knowledgeable and I think so many women out there appreciate this type of content and would appreciate your insight.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ sending love to us all, thank you soooooo much for this thoughtful, beautiful video. You are making a difference in the world
Atleast I have you during this phase. Yes we are not crazy, we are not lunatics. Our body has the gift to provide to another life. We women should stand to one another. We are the only one’s who understand how it feels and how it affects us. I don’t want to hate, but I hope they could be a little considerate about how our body works.
Hi Meagan ❤ thank you for this I learned a lot 💞 & thank you for the putting the resources below. All the best. 🎃🖤
I love your video, you are the only person who has really said something about in a broad way. Thank you so much. Keep it up.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
😢
Omygoodness please make videos on the various phases, this was not only beautiful but helpful 💛
this is a really careful & well-informed explanation-- except when mention was made of consuming the liver..... why would one eat the MOST toxic organ which serves as a viral/bacterial/toxin filter of a sentient being?> no sense in that what so ever. especially not nutritionally. do you know how great of a viral load you are inheriting from consuming liver? so sad and detrimental when this kind of disinformation spreads.
I can listen to you talk alday , you speak so beautifully it's so soothing !
Whilst I love the energies you’ve described with the luteal phase, I’m slightly concerned at the biological description. Typically an egg dies within 24-48 hours of release from the follicle. And the corpus luteum never leaves the ovary and enters the Fallopian tube. I would recommend reading scientific journals when referring to biological mechanisms.
I have a question im 16 and im having a phase i think on my flow tracker it said im going through it does this mean im pregnant? Cus I really dont wanna be
Oh my goodness thank you so much sister
This is beyond beautiful ❤❤❤❤love love love.
Every woman needs this video in her life!!! 💕 I have watched this video so many times. The information is absolutely brilliant and you teach it, in such a beautiful way. Have you created any for the other phases? I looked but I couldn’t see any which seems a shame as this one for the Luteal Phase is gold dust ⭐️ Thank you so much for sharing 💕
