Ep 77: Hormones, Cycle Syncing Ⓡ, and Why We Should Celebrate Our Periods with Hormone Expert and Creator of the MyFLO app, Alisa Vitti

In this insightful episode, Melissa sits down with Alisa Vitti, who shares her transformative journey following a hormonal collapse at a young age that shaped her future. Alisa emphasizes the complexity and necessity of understanding women's cycles and hormones for overall well-being. Her trademark concept, Cycle Syncing, has become a lifestyle for many women, guiding their daily health routines through the four phases: menstruation, follicular, ovulation, and luteal. They discuss the importance of protecting our circadian rhythm to maintain our biological clocks, suggesting simple practices like getting morning sunlight and avoiding phone screens before bed. Alisa explains how aligning our diet, exercise, and work schedules with our cycle phases helps us feel our best. She advocates for going within and letting our bodies dictate our natural state of being, avoiding plastics, and using fragrance-free products. This episode highlights the crucial importance of women being in tune with their cycles for optimal health.Limited Time Offer: Use code movewithheart when you sign up for a monthly membership to get your first month FREE on melissawoodhealth.com.Go to the MyFLO app and use code MWH to get a FREE month.Visit ritual.com/movewithheart and 25% OFF your first month of Ritual will automatically be applied at checkout.Melissa Wood-Tepperberg, founder of MWH and host of the Move With Heart Podcast, is a meditation teacher, certified yoga and pilates instructor, certified health coach, and beloved by the diverse community she’s cultivated through her unique approach to fitness and mindfulness over the years.
