Why Living in Alignment with Your Cycle Changes Everything: A guide to help you thrive rather than just survive
Why Living in Alignment with Your Cycle Changes Everything: A Guide to help you thrive rather than just survive!
Introduction:
Do you ever feel like you’re constantly fighting against your own energy — exhausted one week, buzzing the next, but with no idea why?
You’re not broken — you’re cyclical. And when you start living with your natural rhythms instead of against them, everything changes.
This is your invitation to stop hustling through burnout and start flowing with ease, power, and clarity.
In this guide, I’ll explore what cyclical living actually means, how it helps you feel better, and why this is your missing piece if you’re juggling motherhood, work, and your own well-being and feeling like you are failing, falling apart or exhausted by it all.
It's absolutely not your fault if you are finding life a struggle.
We were not taught about this natural energy source and how living in alignment with our cycles is the key to finding balance.
Once you learn about how the menstrual and lunar cycles impact us on a daily, weekly and monthly basis you'll be amazed at how much easier life becomes.
So what is Cyclical Living?
Cyclical living is about tuning into the natural rhythms of your body and the natural world around you. And using that knowledge to plan our lives, doing the things we are more naturally inclined towards at that time. I'm going to share some real life examples so keep reading to learn more...
There are two key cycles I help people connect with:
The Menstrual Cycle — your internal rhythm, guiding your energy, focus, and emotions.
The Lunar Cycle — a beautiful external guide, especially if your menstrual cycle is irregular, you are post-natal/ postpartum, peri-menopausal, menopausal or post menopausal or if you don't bleed. Perfect for everyone, regardless of your gender identity, we can all rely on the moon's wisdom.
Both offer profound insights into when to rest, plan, create, and take action — and when you align your life to these rhythms, everything flows more naturally.
Why Is Cyclical Living Helpful for You?
We’ve been taught that we should feel the same every day. But here’s the truth:
we are designed to shift and change and we don't have the same energy every day.
Be it due to different lunar energies or the different hormonal levels during our menstrual cycle (for those of us who have one), we should not expect ourselves to be the same every day. And when you stop expecting yourself to be at 100% all month, you unlock:
💫 More energy by honouring your body’s cues
🧠 More clarity on when to make decisions
🌸 More self-compassion (because you’re not lazy or broken)
👩💻 More productivity (yes, even with fewer hours of hustle)
💕 More joy in your parenting, work, and personal life
Why Listen to Me?
I’m Claudia — life coach, registered nurse, self-love advocate, and cyclical living guide.
I’ve been where you are: exhausted, pushing through, wondering why things felt so hard.
When I started working with my cycle instead of fighting it, everything changed. I stopped feeling guilty for needing rest. I started planning my work and family life in a way that actually worked for me. And the result? More peace, more confidence, more me.
It’s not about doing more — it’s about doing things differently.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: What if my cycle doesn’t match the lunar cycle?
A: That’s totally normal. The lunar cycle is a beautiful external guide, and with time, your cycles may start to align naturally — but you don’t need them to match for this to work.
Q: I’m a mum — how will this help me?
A: Cyclical living helps you manage your energy better, reduce overwhelm, and give yourself more compassion during busy or tiring weeks. It makes motherhood feel lighter and it also gives you the heads up on which weeks may be more challenging parenting wise so you can plan tactical playdates to help share the load with your parent friends.
Q: Will I need to track everything perfectly?
A: Nope. Even small awareness shifts can create big changes. The Vault gives you easy-to-use tools so you don’t have to overthink it.
