➡️Seed Cycling Method: Day 1–14 (Follicular phase): 1 tbsp flaxseed + pumpkin seeds daily. Day 15–28 (Luteal phase): 1 tbsp sesame + sunflower seeds daily. 👉 Helps balance estrogen & progesterone naturally.

➡️FOR. MIND – Anxiety, Overthinking, Depression

Pranayama: Anulom-Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) – 10 min daily. Bhramari (humming bee breath) – reduces anxiety & obsessive thoughts. Sleep before 11 pm, avoid late-night phone usage.

✅Daily Lifestyle Routine

Wake up early (before 7 am). Do 20–30 min brisk walk or yoga (Surya Namaskar is excellent). Eat light & warm food – khichdi, soups, green vegetables, whole grains. Avoid daytime sleeping – worsens Kapha & weight gain. Keep a food & mood diary – helps you control binge eating triggers.

With consistency, you will notice gradual weight loss, more regular cycles, calmer mind, and better energy.
