Period Power

De: Maisie Hill

Narrado por: Maisie Hill

Period Power is a profound but practical blueprint for aligning daily life with the menstrual cycle, to give all menstruators a no-nonsense explanation of what the hell happens to us every month and how we can use each phase to its full advantage.

Ninety per cent of people who have periods experience symptoms of PMS, a syndrome which features a wide range of signs and symptoms, and yet there's an enduring lack of understanding about what it actually is and a disappointingly meagre range of treatment options.

So many of us have a Jekyll and Hyde experience of our lives; we feel on top of the world, capable, confident and sexy for part of each month, then find ourselves in a state of physical and emotional discomfort and fatigue, wanting nothing more than to collapse on the sofa in front of Netflix.

But what if instead of just trying to plan for our dark days, we were equipped with ways to improve them? What if our desire to improve ourselves could be combined with our need to know just what our womb and ovaries are getting up to every month?

Not to mention how to take advantage of the natural superpowers that sit in each phase of our cycle so that we can plan our month to perform at our best.

Maisie Hill is uniquely placed, as an acupuncturist, women's health practitioner and doula, to explain just how we can achieve this as well as focusing on particular milestones that require an altered approach, such as coming off hormonal birth control, infertility, pregnancy, motherhood and the perimenopausal years.

Using what Hill calls 'The Cycle Strategy' - a secret weapon when it comes to improving our relationships, career and health - Hill will give us all the information we need to make sense of our cycles as well as accessible and practical suggestions through which we can improve our physical symptoms and stop berating ourselves because of the way we evolve through each menstrual month.

SO good!

If you really want to understand YOU read this.
Great blend of science and mindset.

every mestruator must read this!

Maisie has done an amazing job of giving science-backed education and real-life experiences. This book will help any menstruator gain understanding and control of their cycle... and ultimately their body. Well done Maisie Hill!

A MUST read!

Not to be dramatic but this book changed my life! I learned so much and have already started implementing some positive changes in regards to not only my period but my overall physical and mental health! Very educational but written in a fairly simple and fun to read style. This is the kind of book that I would want to read again in a couple of years and then again in a decade and on and on as my body is changing.
The only thing that was a bit annoying is all the man-hating propaganda in the firsts few chapters. Honestly it was bad enough for me to want to stop reading but I learned to focus on the scientific and medical knowledge of the author instead of her social agenda. Not a huge deal. I'll just know when to skip forward next time i read it. Still a must read!

Most impactful book I read this year

Well written, impactful, practical - Period Power is a must read for anyone with a uterus.

Life changing

This helped me finally have a cycle that’s not painful. Now I actually appreciate every phase of my cycle.
