Ever feel like your emotions hijack your week—before your period even starts? In this episode of Healthy You Naturally, Diane unpacks the real reason PMS hits like a freight train—from sudden tears and snapping at loved ones to cravings you swore you wouldn’t give in to. This isn’t just “that time of the month.” It’s your body waving a white flag, asking for support, rhythm, and relief. Diane breaks down what’s actually going on behind the mood swings, breast tenderness, fatigue, and late-night sugar hunts—and how you can finally respond with clarity, not self-blame. Drawing on 30+ years of expertise and her BodyWELL Method, Diane offers a compassionate, whole-body approach to understanding hormonal shifts—one that honors your biology, your nervous system, and your emotional landscape. Because you’re not broken. You’re just out of rhythm—and rhythm can be restored. You’ll learn: 🌊 Why PMS symptoms like mood swings and breast tenderness are chemical—not character flaws 🧁 What causes cravings even when you’re “eating clean” (and how blood sugar, stress, and hormones are all tangled up) 🧠 How estrogen, progesterone, and brain chemicals like serotonin impact your emotions more than you think 🔥 The four PMS patterns: emotional shifts, cravings, adrenal fatigue, and lymph stagnation—and how to spot yours 🌿 The herbal formulas Diane uses to gently restore balance (and which ones to start with first) 💫 Practical ways to support your lymph, gut, and liver so you feel lighter—physically and emotionally ✨ My takeaway? "These symptoms aren’t random. They’re rhythm calls. When you nourish instead of numb, your body remembers how to heal."
