Period Relief

So Aunt Flo is back this month, and you are feeling a bit down—what to do? Well, don't be sad—there's always a way to live it up, even when you're on your period! Though we cannot make our periods go away, we can think happy thoughts instead to help us through this time. Believe me—it makes a huge difference! The following are some tips that I (the BeingGirl editor) have found to be helpful for period relief.


Indulge Yourself 

  • Take a long bubble bath. Don't forget music, candles, and a magazine.
  • Chocolate! Chocolate! Chocolate! Need I say more?
  • Drink warm liquids.
  • Snuggle up to a "feel-good" movie.
  • Paint your nails and show them off!


Stress Relief 

  • Some light exercises help relieve tension in your body and make you feel better overall.
  • Go out with the girls. Shopping works for me!
