This episode is part 3 of 4 in a series diving deeper into each of the phases of our menstrual cycles. In this episode we cover the luteal phase. Key points in this episode: * Luteal is the phase of our cycle after ovulation and before our period. It's our inner autumn or waning moon phase. * Estrogen drops after ovulation and then rises again slightly. Progesterone is triggered by ovulation and is our key hormone in this phase. * In luteal phase we move from a more externally focused high energy 'doing' phase of our cycle into a lower energy, more internally focused 'being' energy * Luteal is a phase of creativity, inspiration, and completion.
