As back-to-school season approaches, planning with your menstrual cycle in mind can help you stay balanced and energized. Here’s how to align your school prep with your cycle:

Menstrual Phase (Days 1-5):

• Reflect and Rest: Take it easy and reflect on your goals for the upcoming school year. Use this time for quiet planning and setting intentions.
• Self-Care: Prioritize rest and self-care. Treat yourself to a spa day or a relaxing bath. Arranging for an outing for the kids while you put your feet up is highly recommended too!

Follicular Phase (Days 6-14):

• Plan and Organize: Your energy is increasing. Use this time to create detailed to-do lists, organize school supplies, and plan your back-to-school shopping.
• Creative Projects: Engage in creative activities like DIY school supplies or room decor. Your creativity is at its peak.

Ovulatory Phase (Days 15-17):

• Socialize and Network: Connect with other parents, teachers, and students. Attend school meetings or organize a back-to-school get-together.
• Communicate: Handle any important communications, such as emails to teachers or meetings with school administrators.

Luteal Phase (Days 18-28):

• Complete Preparations: Focus on completing all back-to-school preparations. Your attention to detail is strong during this phase.
• Routine Building: Start easing into your new routine. Establish a sleep schedule and organize your daily activities to ensure a smooth transition.
