To lessen the intensity of menstrual cramps, steep 4 or 5 slices of fresh ginger in boiling water until the water is a golden color and drink as a tea. Add honey and milk for a soothing treat.

Take an iron supplement during your cycle if you have heavy cramps, or eat lots of green leafy vegetables to replace your iron. Regular lecithin, calcium and vitamins B and E are helpful as well.

Sit in a hot bath up to your navel point and massage your ovaries to relieve cramps. It is best to eat lightly during the heavy days of your cycle. This will relieve some of the pressure in the abdomen.

Stimulating your glandular system by exercising vigorously when you are not menstruating will reduce stress and release toxins stored in the body. Make it part of your routine to exercise and sweat every day.

Energy Boosters

If you feel fatigued during your menstrual cycle, take a teaspoon of cold pressed sesame oil daily during your cycle and a few days afterwards.

To replace minerals lost during your cycle, sauté 8 - 10 almonds in almond oil or ghee (clarified butter). You can sauté them with ginger and honey. Make this part of your breakfast during menstruation.

Circulation

Massage your breasts, ovaries and underarms everyday to stimulate circulation. This can help to relieve built up tension in these areas.
Avoid lifting your feet over your head in yoga or other exercises, cold showers, abdominal exercises, heavy lifting, Breath of Fire, and conflict and intense conversations. If you feel over emotional, drinking water right away will help to restore balance.
