Ladies it's that time of the year again and I thought doing this post will help me stay calm while dealing with period cramps.
1) Track your date. I have the Mycalander app on my phone that predicts when my period is next in place. this is helpful so if I have anything important due on the same day I can do it beforehand or reschedule it.
2) Walk. Doing some movement helps to take your mind of the pain. Listening to music on your way is also a great way to keep you going for the day. My favourite track right now is Hailee Steinfield ft. DNCE 'rock bottom'
3) Plan your snacks. I recently have been having the chocolate craving and on the slimming world plan, I prefer to keep my syns low. So the best thing I do is fill my fridge with fruits - mango, grapes, pears etc. it's the best way to snack. Of course you can snack on whatever you fancy.
4) Pamper yourself. I like to do a face mask or paint my nails to keep me distracted. Also sometimes I like to lie down, just to fight the irritating pains. I also take ibuprofen pills, to take away the pain however I know that medication doesn't work for everyone.
5) Do a favourite activity. Keeping yourself busy helps to forget about the cramps. Listening to music - reading books - playing games. Whatever you enjoy doing, keeps you distracted from the little pains that may be stopping you from carrying on with your day.
