Hey there nostr! it's been a while since my last post. I'm now in Puerto Rico, visiting family, but here comes some inspiration. this time, about how our cycle impacts our brain.
Monthly cyclical changes in our hormones dramatically reshape regions of the brain that mediate emotions, memory, behavior, and how information is transferred.
In the first half of the month high estrogen levels give you an increase in mental sharpness, creativity and communication skills.
Estrogen also enhances the release of serotonin which is our happiness hormone.
In the second half of the month, your cognitive abilities shift and you turn inwards.
What can go wrong?
Some of the hormonal changes, especially in the second half can express strongly for some. For example PMS affects the limbic system and prefrontal cortex, where decision making, good judgment and stable emotions occur.
PMS symptoms include moodiness, trouble concentrating, aggressivity, and irritability.
Studies show that the longer you go untreated, the greater the risk of dementia.
Here's a challenge:
Start noticing your daily mood and mental patterns. How is your mental clarity today?
Do you feel foggy?
Do you feel more inwards or more outwards, articulated and able to make good judgements?
Noticing these changes will help you be aware of your cyclical strengths and can help you better organize your tasks at home and at work.
I read you in the comments!

I see Art as a process, a form of activism and I love how eARTh and HeART both contain the word art.
Listened to an amazing podcast on women's health and hormones today. Very fascinating subject indeed ❤️

Thanks for sharing, will give it a listen. Hormonal health is the foundation if how we work and has an impact on our cardiovascular, bone, break health, together with how we handle stress and how our immune system fights infections. That's why I think we should all be understanding better that it goes beyond fertility! We have gone do long with a narrow view of our hormones are only for reproduction, and now neuroscience, and psychoneuroimmnunology is proving otherwise.

Hey everyone,
Im coming back after a year away and wondering what has changed here.
So, I wanted to reintroduce myself, Im Johanna. I work as a holistic women’s health educator. I focus on all things women health: periods, birth and postpartum and menopause.I think my personal and work life are very intertwined and my personal interests are connected also to my work: herbalism, somatics, movement and sound. I guess they are all rooted in a sense of sovereignty, and agency and that’s why I am here. Looking for other ways to be in the world and also interested in Bitcoin as a tool to break the current monetary system.
