PMS Made Peaceful | Emotional Regulation, Cycle Syncing, Monthly Cycle Hormones, Christian Women, Hormone Imbalance
--- TOP 3% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST --- Do you wish you could better manage the spiraling emotions that make you feel out of control every month? Are you looking for ways to keep tabs on your cycle so you’re not caught off guard by negative, intrusive thoughts every single premenstrual phase? Do you need a wellness strategy you can actually stick to that isn’t overwhelming? If this sounds familiar, I’m so glad you’re here. Welcome to PMS Made Peaceful, the podcast for Christian women wanting more emotional regulation during their premenstrual phase. This podcast will teach you how to better manage the emotional rollercoaster each month through holistic wellness strategies, building habits that work for you and keeping you rooted in who God says you are (aka Beloved Daughter of the King!) Hey, I’m Lauren! I’m a registered nurse, wellness coach, mama and Christ-follower. For over a decade I struggled to manage the spiraling anxiety and debilitating lies that would pile on me in the week before my period. I felt lost and crazy, like I was failing my family, friends and God, with no ability to just “pull myself together”. I finally realized that if I didn’t want to be emotionally tossed around each cycle, I would need to partner with my body and the natural rhythms God had created me with. Through following simple habits I actually enjoyed doing, learning holistic wellness strategies that matched where I was in my cycle and knowing who I needed to spend time with every day (you guessed it.. the Lord!), my premenstrual phases began to feel more manageable and less out of control. And I want the same for you. If you’re ready to feel more emotionally regulated throughout your whole cycle, to work with the rhythms God has created you with, and to stick to healthy habits that will keep you grounded, present and feeling good, then this podcast is for you! So, if you’re ready to get started, take a deep breath, grab your coffee, and let’s jump in!

Happy New Year! And Happy 1st year to the podcast on December 18th! Crazy how times goes by!
I'm so thankful for each and every one of you who has supported and listened to this podcast! My hope and prayer is that it has blessed, helped and encouraged you on your journey through PMS, PMDD, mood swings and hormonal imbalances.
For this first episode of 2025, I wanted to share 2 things I ditched/ removed/ changed in 2024 and what I'm hoping to add or change for the upcoming year to support my endocrine and reproductive system. It's always encouraging to look back and see what small (or big) changes you made and celebrate them, and then make more goals for what's coming up!
So have a listen, and I'd encourage you to spend a few minutes reflecting on some of your big or small emotional regulation or hormonal balancing changes you've made!

It's that time of year! We're celebrating Christ the newborn King and the start of a new year, which means your calendar might be full of social engagements, parties, family time, meltdowns, overstimulation and overwhelm.
It's joyful and celebratory, but it can still be a lot. If we're not aware and mindful of how we're doing, we can quickly start feeling dysregulated.
In this episode I'm sharing 5 tips for helping to calm your nervous system when you're with family, friends and kids. These aren't hour long activities that you won't have time for. These are tools you can tack on to the normal and daily things you're already doing.

We all know the classic passage about love in 1 Corinthians. But when you read it, does it instill in you? Guilt, freedom, condemnation? When we're dealing with PMS or PMDD symptoms, and we clearly see we aren't kind or patient, and we're actually just downright rude and self-seeking, how do we allow the gospel to move in us that turns us away from self-serving to self-sacrifice?
This is the last of the Advent series, as Christmas is just a few days away. This episode brings both love and Christ together, because we can't love, we can't be gracious or kind until we allow the true and radical love of God to transform us.
Blessings,
Lauren

Joy: it goes beyond just being happy and smiling all the time. Joy in Jesus is so much different than just being happy all the time, and it's even more pertinent when we're suffering, struggling or desiring something that just hasn't happened yet. However, how do we move beyond mood swings and how we're feeling in our premenstrual phase and truly root our strength in the joy of what Jesus has done for us and the promises God speaks over us? I know for my own self, this is an area God is continually refining me in. It requires humility and trusting in God's goodness, and not just in how I feel.
So come have a listen to this third week of advent, and be invited to pursue a joy that's deep deep down, beyond fickle emotions and thoughts, but rather deeply grounded in the truth of who God is.

We're onto our second week of Advent, and this week we're talking about peace. We've all heard peace thrown around by people: find your inner peace.. look within yourself to be calm. Lots of worldly advice that doesn't actually help. Instead, we need to find our peace from outside of ourselves, in God, the one who created us. So, if you've been asking questions like: What if I don't have enough _____________ ? And everything goes wrong? And we won't be all right? What if tragedy hits? These can be paralyzing if we don't know who to give them to.
Have a listen and I pray this episode blesses you and points you to the Prince of Peace.

Are despair and hopelessness speaking a bit too loud these days? Are you finding it difficult to trust in Jesus and his promises amidst premenstrual anxiety and fear? Well, Christmas is coming, and that means Advent is here! If you don't know much about Advent, it simply means 'coming': Jesus is coming. He's still safely tucked in Mary's belly. She's probably getting more and more uncomfortable, and both nervously and excitedly wanting to meet her baby.
You're invited to practice hope this week, to remember where your TRUE hope lies. The world will offer us counterfeit hope, which is like putting a bandaid on a gushing wound. I invite you to step away from the loud, despairing voices and come away with Jesus for a moment, who wants to remind you of the living hope we have in him!

Welcome back to PMS Made Peaceful! This week, I chatted with Bekah Yawn, the fertility awareness guru and boy, was it a great conversation!
Here's a bit about Bekah: I am a daughter of God, a wife, and a mother of three children here on earth and three in heaven. After enduring multiple miscarriages and searching for answers, God revealed the importance of understanding and supporting my cycle naturally. Grateful for this guidance, I discovered lifestyle tweaks and disciplines that made a healthy pregnancy possible. As a FIAT FEMM Coach, I have helped dozens of women and couples nationwide. Now, I'm excited to share the details through my podcast "For the Love of Hormones" as well as a in my Fertility Framework course.
If you've been struggling to conceive and you're wondering where to go from here, have a listen to this episode AND go check out Bekah's podcast: For The Love Of Hormones. Bekah has such a heart for this kind of work, and I know you'll be encouraged by what she has to say.
I pray this episode really blesses you!

Hey friend!
In today's episode we're taking a hard look at 3 questions to be asking yourself when the PMS or PMDD is debilitating. It can be so hard when we're in the thick of the anxiety, hopelessness, rage, self-criticism to take an objective view at how we're living our lives, but it's so vital! In true holistic fashion, join me in looking at your spiritual, physical and emotional health to see what areas need tweaking and support in order for your body to feel balanced, your mind to experience clarity and your spirit to be anchored in Truth.
Enjoy the episode!

Hey friend! It's Monday again, and I'm so excited to share this episode with you of my conversation with Aileen Orr! Aileen and I have been friends for years, and we love chatting about all things holistic and natural wellness, women's health, hormones- all the good stuff! So, we decided to make an official conversation of it and do an episode all about Aileen's experience with getting her period, working through depression, how that affected her premenstrual phase, what she did to help it and where she's at today!
So, grab a coffee, tea- whatever is getting you warm and cozy these days- and have a listen!
Lauren
Aileen grew up on a farm near Brooks, Alberta. She spent the beginning of her adult life studying at the University of Lethbridge, where she got her degrees in English and Education. She's been fortunate enough to do a bit of traveling and living in other places, and has spent the last few years teaching mainly in junior high and upper elementary grades. Her favourite job she's ever had is a tie between working at various summer camps and being a story teller for the library one semester. Her dream job has always been to farm, and that's still the long term goal.
She's married to Eric, and she is currently enjoying her first few weeks of Maternity leave before she gets promoted to being Little Sprout's mom!

Struggling with despair? Feeling frantic or like you're on the verge of breaking down? Questioning if you are loved or if God is near?
In this week's episode, we're having a quick chat about 2 Timothy 2:13: "If we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself".
This verse has been extremely comforting to me this week as I have struggled with a lot of despairing internal dialogue and difficult emotions. It gives me so much comfort to know that even when I don't have the faith, Jesus still holds me so close.
I hope this episode gives you encouragement today too.
Much love, friend.
