This week I speak with menstrual health expert & holistic nutritionist Amanda Laird on all things periods. We chat about a pretty wide spectrum of things, including how to become better in tune with our own cycle and recognizing it as a vital sign, how period politics should really be viewed simply as a lens to greater political and societal issues, and how taking steps to better understand our own menstrual health can ultimately be a gateway to body autonomy, giving it what it needs and using that level of radical self care as a form of resistance.

Gdzie jest granica między dyskomfortem, którego możecie doświadczać w czasie okresu, a bólem, który może świadczyć o chorobie lub dolegliwości, jak poszczególne układy w naszym ciele mogą wpływać na siebie i jak są ze sobą połączone pod względem hormonalnym, co to znaczy, że cykl menstruacyjny i miesiączka mogą być traktowane jako parametr życiowy, a więc świadczyć o naszym ogólnym stanie zdrowia, tak jak puls, tętno czy ciśnienie - tego dowiecie się z kolejnego odcinka "Koleżanek". Rozmawiam tu z Amandą Laird, amerykańską dietetyczką i autorką podkastu "Heavy Flow" oraz książki "Heavy Flow: Breaking the Curse of Menstruation". Zapraszam do słuchania!
