Finding Relief with natural remedies for PMS

Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) affects millions of people, bringing symptoms like cramps, mood swings, fatigue, and bloating. While PMS is common, living with it doesn’t have to be a struggle. At 222 Collective, we believe nature offers powerful, gentle remedies to support your body through every phase of your cycle. Let’s explore natural ways to ease PMS and promote balance.

The power of plants! 

Ashwagandha: This adaptogen reduces cortisol, helping to soothe stress and regulate mood swings.

Red clover: Rich in phytoestrogens, red clover supports hormonal equilibrium and can relieve hot flashes and breast tenderness.

Cramp bark: True to its name, cramp bark is a natural muscle relaxant that can ease uterine cramping and discomfort.

Lemon balm: A calming herb that alleviates anxiety and promotes restful sleep, lemon balm can ease irritability and tension.

Saffron: This vibrant spice is a natural mood booster, shown to reduce depressive symptoms and emotional instability linked to PMS.

Nutrients for cycle support

Magnesium: Known as nature’s relaxant, magnesium can relieve cramps, headaches, and insomnia.

Calcium: Vital for hormone regulation, calcium may reduce physical and emotional PMS symptoms.

Iron: Replenishing iron stores is essential, especially for those with heavy periods, to combat fatigue and support energy.

Lifestyle shifts to ease PMS

Gentle movement: Practices like yoga and walking can reduce cramps, boost endorphins, and improve circulation.

Balanced nutrition: Eating whole, nutrient-dense foods — rich in fibre, healthy fats, and antioxidants — supports overall hormonal health.

Stress management: Meditation, journaling, or even a warm bath with essential oils can lower cortisol and calm the mind.
