When monthly moodiness hits—whatever name you may call it—there’s a temptation to run from it or hide in cave. But remember—although they may have a bad rep, dragons have a lot of powerful potential!
If you can’t stop crying after your friend sent you the cutest video of a baby kitten, if getting cut off on the freeway has you in a fury for hours, and if your desire for sweets and salty treats is insatiable, it might be Dragon Time. That’s right. Our inner dragons are powerful creatures ready to breathe fire if provoked. Don’t mess with us.
Next time your fire flares, use these helpful tips to take control and own the dragon within!
Feelings fluctuate for everyone—instigated by external circumstances and by hormonal changes. It’s okay to be sad or angry! But when your emotions start getting the best of you, there are ways to feel more centered and grounded. Deep breathing can help you feel more in touch with your feelings—and aware of the outside factors that might be contributing to your mood. So, breathe in… and out. In… and out.
Working out might be the very last thing you want to do, but the combination of a good sweat and feel-good endorphins are the perfect partner for your dragon friend. If a heart-pumping cardio-fest isn’t in the cards, try some gentle stretching by way of light yoga.
Feed. Me. Chocolate! Or perhaps your inner dragon is fueled by more savory snacks. Cravings are usually based in something more primal than you might think. In fact, some cravings don’t have anything to do with hunger! The desire for salty treats might indicate a mineral deficiency. An intense craving for any food may be an indication of dehydration. Drink a glass of water before indulging into snacks.
Speaking of pampering, there’s one time of the month when our body needs a little extra TLC. As skin erupts with the pimples of pubescence and hair decides to somehow be both an oil-slick and the Sahara Desert at the same time, we say, “Not today.” Give your hair and skin the love they deserve with some of our favorite me-time treatments.
Maybe your inner dragon simply needs a soothing bath! Give the old gal a good soak and watch your bad mood go down the drain.
Nothing turns things around like a little massage. Gentle pressure applied to your lower back or abdomen can be calming and relaxing.
Sometimes, the dragon within us simply needs to rest. There’s nothing wrong with giving your body and mind time to rejuvenate.
When things get crazy, we try to treat ourselves right—whether that’s a bit of pampering or creating a nest of cozy relaxation. Try taking care of yourself by shaping the perfect eyebrow and then creating the coziest of spots to hunker down in!
