I’m 29 asian girl :) For me, reducing caffeine and drinking more warm water with herb (not cold water), less salty and less sweet food and keeping my stomach warm(hot pack) during the period are really helpful for me. I hope these tips help other girls too 🤗
There is something so comforting in settling down and watching one of your videos To anyone reading this remember you are amazing and everything will be ok, you will get through whatever you are battling with and come out stronger. ❤
I think it's important to note that everyone is different. One of my friends doesn't suffer from pms and her periods are painless. I eat doughnuts and instant ramen, watch sad movies, cry, feel sorry for myself, get a monstrous pimple on my face and pop painkillers in my mouth like candy. Im 47, I've learnt over the years that this is my normal. But it takes time to learn how to read the signs your body gives you, especially that, like you said, school doesn't teach you those things. So take care of yourselves girls and treat yourselves with kindness xx
Hi Anna, I want to say thank you for talking about this. I am 26 years old and ever since I was a teenager i suffered from really bad PMS. My emotions were all over the place and I felt like every month there was a dark cloud over me and many physical symptoms. I kept telling the doctors that it happened before my period and they kept saying nothings wrong. Finally one doctor told me about PMDD. I take medication for this and honestly its been a lifesaver and have been cycle syncing and the week before my period i make sure to not overplan and go inwards with myself. Your videos have helped so much. sending lots of love
Hi Anna I‘m from germany and 12 years old and your Videos Really motivate me. 1 year Ago i was really struggeling with myself. At this Time i got my First period and everything at me started to change… i was always stressed with scool and the people in scool made me Act like sb who wasn‘t really me ( in that makes Sense) But your Videos always make me feel Calm and relaxed. I‘ve changed Many Things in my life (like eating healthier and make More Sport). THANK YOU SOO MUCH for your real and relate able Videos and all the Work you put in These. Love you ❤❤❤😊 ( and Sorry for the Many wrong spelled words)
How wonderful! It's my daughter's 6th birthday tomorrow and she loves all your videos, so this comes as a birthday present! Thank you and greetings from Berlin. 💐❤️
Watching Anna's vlogs is so refreshing and motivating. Everytime I watch her vlogs I get a feeling that everything is alright and we just need to look at things with a different and positive perspective. I am soooo grateful to her. ❤✨
Just coming to the end of my period , feeling very drained and heavy - this video couldn’t have come at a better time. You are so inspiring and calming Anna and thank you for sharing your experience - content like this is so important ! Hugs from the UK ❤
thanks for sharing this Anna! you re not alone! couldnt have my period for 2 months, doctor pills didnt help either..it was four season in a day, mood swings were so hard.. 2 days ago finally had my period, difference is omg!😮 stress one of the biggest contributor to impact us!
Omg thank you for talking openly about it. I have the same issues, my mood is out of place, feeling mostly sad, and tired. And it hurts for a day or two. I did lose my periods 2 years ago when losing a lot of weight, not nourishing my body, . I got them back when eating more, trying carnivore diet. But i gained a lot of weight. Because of my work stressing me out. You are so right that we should be careful about stress, and listen to our body ! I am trying to getting back into shape, and your tips and advices are inspiring. I wish society, companies would consider that women have their periods, and it can be stressful on the body. I love your way of telling your story, you’re truly an inspiration! Thank you Anna !
Dear Anna, don't even know where to start. First of all, you are an inspiration to me. It was so good to hear your thoughts about our cycle and how this impacts not only us, but also the world around us. I think videos like these are very important, because we have to manifest again and again that people with periods sometimes struggle and don't "function" the way our rather masculin socitey expects us to and that that is fine! So thank you for your view on this. :) I also want to share my experience, maybe this helps someone. I am 28 and still learning so much. Personally, I have bad cramps the first day of bleeding which I am sometimes a bit scared of, not because of the pain itself, but about not being able to take care of myself when I am having a job related appointment or something similar. It got to the point when I almost fainted once beause I pushed through the pain, which I am sure would not have happened had I just stayed in bed that day and taken care of myself. But I just did not want to make things "complicated" for others and postpone the appointment. I think it would be so helpful if the people around us made more space for these instances; for us to feel safe even if we cancel some appointment because yes, we sometimes need to take a step back and yes, it is (for most) on a regular basis and yes, we do deserve it! I also experience mood swings the week before my period. Since I started tracking my cycle, incl. measuring my temperature and other symptoms every day, I am always aware of where I am at in the current cycle and can safely determine that I might be in a bad mood because it's that phase of the cycle. It also helps a bit with determining when the bleeding will start, at least to around 1 or 2 days. I do it following NFP (Natürliche Familien Planung). I am also having good experiences incorporating ginger to my diet the week before my period, it helps me with PMS and nausea on the first day of bleeding.
Спасибо как всегда честно откровенно и с позитивом о такой непростой теме❤ Ты заставляешь смотреть на эту непростую и порой тяжёлую жизнь с хорошей стороны, продолжай свое дело! Это важно для многих ❤❤❤
HEY ANNAAAAA just watch your video and I loved it❤❤ !!!!! Period is soo important and women just started to take control of it !! We need to change the way people look at it!!! Well done for your rainbow puzzle !!! I bought a1000 pieces one 6 month ago but I didn't even touch it 😥 Love yooou and big hugs 🥰
I have it right now, I feel so low energy and so sad… today has been a hard day mentally… I don’t even feel like myself, this happens once a month every month… Anna your word of encouragement are so uplifting and comforting!! All of your videos help me to feel calmer, more uplifted, and more peaceful!! Thank you for doing what you do, you are helping so many people and your genuineness and kindness is so refreshing and encouraging , I can relate to everything you have said not only in this video but most videos!! Thank you so much Anna, may God keep using you and your content to bless so many people!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ sending you lots of love!!!
sending lots of love back ❤️ I think it’s important to not feel alone, we are in this together and I think we all should learn more about hormones, ourselves and our beautiful unique bodies ❤️
Hi Anna❤ its a bliss to watch you and discuss topics we women don't talk about much openly. Here is a small tip from my side which actually helped me relax a bit from the effects of hormonal change during periods : Please never wash hair during the first 3 days as it hampers the flow resulting in cramps and more mood swings and eat much boiled veggies and lentils as its easy to digest. Lots of love from Köln
It's so true that we are all different and there's no fixed rule to follow that applies to all women when on your period. For example I don't have a super painful period but I do feel at my worst during PM phase. I have such a strong and uncomfortable PMS, where I get sore in my lower back/breast (it depends on the months), bloated, tired, hungry all the time and with tangible munchies... that when the period starts is a sort of liberation to me. I have cramps, of course, but I feel slowly detoxed🦋
Hey there! Thanks for sharing! I love the simple and music free vlog, definitely feels more like interactive. Additionally, all that you mentioned, the bloating, the mood swings, the chaotic house /mind is spot on from what i've been going through. I too went to the doctor and only got the recommendation to take birth control and ssri's, which if you need to go for it...but like you said, that's not a natural way to deal with it. I think we all want a simple/clean options. Our luteal phase is just testing us hahah. My PMS is the worst then. This year after discovering what my PMS Is I decided to take on some changes. This is what has been working for me. 1. Eat more consistently-high protein &fiber & dark chocolate when you start getting agitated. 2. Like you said, if you are high energy, go hard , if not , then relax or go for a walk. 3. Limiiittttt social media. There is nothing worse than feeling worse about yourself and then comparing and watching crap on social media. 4. Increase magnesium glypysate for better nights rest. It has provided best relaxation and sleep before bed. 5. Get a good 8 hours of sleep. 6. Don't overwhelm yourself with plans. Give this time to work on yourself and activities that you like. 7. Limit coffee , maybe start with tea or something lighter in caffine. Hope this helps!
Thanks Anna, love these videos/chats. I was low on mood and cried a bit but smiled after hopping onto ur video while having dinner. For the cramps: Ingwer Tee hilft mir immer
I love your videos, both on this channel and your workout channel! You are such an inspiration, and also I love Berlin so much.😅 Sending love from Czechia, Anna💖
This was super real. Loved it!. ❤️. I’m currently in menopause…maybe you could have an older woman talk about the effects of menopause on mood and daily life-as well as in our workout journey! You are a beautiful soul, Anna
And another big hug for you, Anna❤❤❤ thanks for your video. When I was at school, my period was extremely terrible, extermely sickly. First day of period was awful. I took about 6 pills of pain killer, so my stomac now usually every little pill makes my stomac hurt. After that I use injection of pain killer. So it is important to talk about period. And I loved your ideas. It is importamt to talk about period at school, universities also.
I hope it’s ok that I watch your videos. I’m an older woman, 63. I wish we had CZcams channels like this when I was younger. I feel validated, hearing you cover so many excellent topics. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day! ❤
I really like to be in a dark and cozy room on my days, no lights definitely.. the bests and fluffy socks on my feet.. some soft movie, popcorn and chocolates ❤ also make me feel amazing just free bleeding so I have a special red towel that I just lay on top.. ❤❤ Thank you Anna for looking for that! your work maked difference in this world 🌎
Hi Anna, this was such a beautiful and true video! I sometimes suffer with the same problems so listening to you makes it feel more normal. Lots of love from Türkiye! 💖💖
Dear Anna, you're so lovely and authentic. I'm Yoga / Pilates / Yogalates teacher and I teach many classes a week, when on periods I would say ofc we need to reduce, sleep more, slow down. Adapt some classes but also it's a mindset like : "ok, in 3 days it's over phew., 3 hard days, let's push when same..." So it's to be aware that it's not a cool period but it will go trough.
Thankyou for being honest about not being able to do the workout without breaks! That happens sometimes and it’s embarrassing. 😢 I swear I feel better listening to you
omg but it’s NOT embarrassing!!! it’s okay, some days are better, others are not ❤️ you are only competing against yourself, and needing a break when you do a workout is so okay! I also need that reminder sometimes ❤️❤️
That happened to me yesterday. It was my first day of my period and I wasn't able to workouts without breaks. It was a pilates workout that I had already done before quite effortlessly. My energy was just so low. I was a bit disappointed but I've decided to be good with myself and told myself that I was proud 🥰❤️
Hi Anna, thanks for your videos,you are a very sympathetic person! :) Maybe you can remember this follicular phase as the time when the so called „follicle“ („Follikel“ in german“) builds up, the state before the final egg/follicle gets dropped.
Your videos relieve my anxiety, the other day I watched each one a hundred times 😅❤ I am very grateful to you for your trust in us. Your vlogs are like a breath of fresh air. I love your calm, judicious voice 🌸✨
I never had too many issues, apart from a very bloated feeling. This resolved itself when I started a low carb diet a few yrs ago. On months when my carbs are low, I don’t have any issues - no fatigue, cramps, bloating, etc. So these days I ensure I eat low carb at least 2 weeks before my period starts, which I don’t mind at all - I LOVE this way of eating. What works for me may not work for you though, but worth a try if it means no more low energy cycles!
When it comes to ovulation, it is not true for everybody, what u said. I have hormonal disbalance and i feel terrible those few days sometimes and i feel my best right after my period, have a great day! Love ya❤
@cupcake2351 💯 relate to this. I feel terrible during ovulation. Almost the same like 1 week before and during my period. It gets better by day 7.. basically I’m bed-bound for weeks 😢 no doctors can help either btw
I'm in the same train with you Anna, you're not alone. Before 3-5 days and during the period I feel so tired, sad, always feel like crying, feel like whole universe is against me, noone understands me and forget about balance diet which I try to follow on a regular basis. I am always so hungry during those days. Until few months back I used to think that those things are happening only with me becaue noone talks openly about all the symptoms. Women should come out and talk about this topic openly. Atleast we'll feel that we are not alone. I feel a little relief when my periods starts. My period days are not that painful like those 3-5 days before it comes. I have sore breast, my thighs, lower abdomen and waist pains a lot. I become so cranky.
oh Anna you like read my thoughts, I wanna write that i want to videos like this, like your workout routine while period or befor it, and here you are, thanks so much
My symptoms have changed over the years (I'm 36 now). But I'd say bloating, fatigue, feeling distracted and easily irritated, having high levels of stress and cravings of salty or sweet food, feeling blue/pessimistic/overly sensitive or even bad about my body image or self as a whole, have been symptoms I've been battling with since I was a teen. Then my period comes and everything gets back to normal as if I never had pms! Anyone can relate? Just remind yourself it's only a few days and it will pass. Not all feelings and thoughts are worth ruminating❤
Anna, I just ordered your bottle sand beige 🤩 I have been looking for a good bottle with straw inside for a while now. It will travel to Poland to Krakow 😊 And thank you very much for your sharing, very brave of you and it shows normal real life, much appreciated 💕
Thank you for this video. I am having these things as breast uncomfort, changing of regime of day, waking up late and sleeping too many hours, pimples, I am feeling changes in mood, so it started bothering me) my period is gonna come soon) eating something which is not healthy and thinking why would I break my healthy diet that I have set for my good mood already, even though I enjoyed it for so many days?) I do not know if I really had such things before, maybe did not pay attention to it. I intentionally started searching your channel to find any information about it, because I knew you would post something about it:) so thank you! I have allowed myself to relax after your words)
I had the same situation than you at your workout and totally messed up an exam... Some hours later my period started and I knew what happened. I hate it. Since that I'm afraid about getting symptoms (blackout or low energy) during an important presentation in front of a crowd or on a customer meeting which is planned months in advance... I feel strange to ask my male colleague or my boss if he could be my backup if it happens. This feels so weak. 😢 I try to avoid important stuff around this time or stay at home. Some days before I use some anti acne products to prevent pimples. I also change my diet the days before and try to eat food which is easy to process for the stomach and drink a lot of water. The day before my period and the first day of it are cheat days for me. I eat whatever I crave. 😅 I love your honesty ❤
So wichtig das Thema! Ein Video mit deinen Tipps fürs Wiedererlangen (trotz Sport?) wäre so so toll. Ich leide daran und wäre sehr interessiert an deinen Tipps. Betreust Du auch in dem Bereich? 😢🙏
ich bin selbst kein experte, hab mir auch hilfe geholt und arbeite jetzt mit einer ernährungsberaterin ❤️ werd aber mal ein video zu dem thema filmen, wenn ihr wollt ❤️
@@annaengelschall Du hast Dich dann an einen Coach gewendet? Ein Video darüber wäre so wundervoll, welchen Weg Du gegangen bist und was Du geändert hast ❤ v.a. wenn man schon im NG ist und ausreichend isst, das war evtl. bei Dir ja auch der Fall. Du bist in jedem Fall echt n Vorbild und ne tolle Person mit einer wundervollen Entwicklung ❤❤
At first,I I used to eat lots of vegetables (Mainly raw), protein (mainly from plants,but also chicken and fish), and " healthy fats",But then I had very intense premenstrual symptoms. Now I have included many more meats and animal fats, and I really feel like never before, I very rarely have period symptoms and if I do they are very mild.❤❤
Anna, I loose my period for about 7year, do you have any suggestions and how you make your period back and how long you struggling with this? Can you make a video about this! I know in the previous video you have mentioned that you change the way you exercise and eat, but I still wish to hear more about this. Thank you!really like the video you shared. Have been doing your workout for a long time. It’s really challenging but when finished it I feel proud of myself ❤️
Hey Ana! I’ve moved to Berlin 6 months ago and I don’t know why, but yes I lost my period. I think my hormones are all messed up due to the stress of finding an apartment here. I’ve tried to look for ginecologists and endocrinologists, but I guess the good ones are booked up.
For PMS I love motherwort tincture and raspberry leaf tea. I’ve also been learning to not engage in serious conversations or make big plans or assessments of myself during this time. I also plan less. Maybe don’t film anything major during this time 🙏🏼 💕
I also get really bad digestive issues. It is really common due to the rise and drop in hormones. What has helped me is kombucha and pineapple juice. Sometimes I will drink them on their own or mix them together. Pineapple juice has made a huge difference. I also drink raspberry tea leaf. That helps too. In addition to help with the extreme bloat, I will lay in bed with a heating pad and take Aleve if I just can’t seem to get rid of the bloat. I also try to help my mood by listening to upbeat music and watching shows that will cheer me up. For me, it’s Sex and the City. Doing what comforts me helps during that time. ❤
Some months i feel low energy before my period and other months i feel like doing a workout. It depends how youre using your energy in other aspects of life, as well
Anna I hope you're in pink of health...this is pihu from india I want you to know that I am obsessed with your videos your workout drives me crazy...it is totally you and you who made me believe that I should start looking for my body...I am 18 years old studying pharmacy in india. I just want to ask since it's my new starting afresh journey I always feel what am I doing is it sufficient cuz I really don't want to lag back and crave for junk foods cuz I maintain balance...is it okay if sometimes we don't wake up or like skip workout for a day!! I hope you will reply!! Love you loads!!❤
i feel what you say, its so important to know about your body and the phases. Everytime i get my period i feel almost depressive and ask myself, why do i feel so shitty? Then i remember its because of my period, i forget every month, do anyone can relate? :D
I appreciate you because I really get like that on my period and I don’t wanna feel like that I think it’s affecting my 2 year old boy and my partner I really wanna understand wat to do to change that ✍🏽✍🏽
Hi Anna, thank you so much for your words. Young girls need to hear that it's normal to have all this struggle and confusing emotions. Kurz auf deutsch weiter, fällt mir leichter 😅 mir haben Ärzte auch nicht direkt weiter geholfen. " Nimm die Pille, sagten 4 Ärzte zu mir. Ich hatte Jahrelang Probleme, bis ich mehrfach wegen extremer Schmerzen im Krankenhaus war. Dort wurde eine Vermutung erstellt, dass ich mich auf *Endometriose* testen lassen sollte. Siehe da, ich habe Jahrelang Endometriose gehabt, ich wurde operiert und nun habe ich diese Schmerzen nicht mehr, außerhalb der Periode. Leider können viele Gynäkologen dies in ihren Praxen nicht testen, dafür fehlt denen das Equipment. Dabei haben sehr viele Frauen das Problem. Das sollte mal einen Denkanstoß geben, dass in gynäkologischen Praxen das Equipment zur Untersuchung für Frauen gegeben sein sollte.... so müssten viele nicht Jahrelang mit Schmerzen rumlaufen, wenn man rechtzeitig handeln könnte. Ich habe "nur noch" starke Schmerzen während der Periode, die ersten 2 Tage liege ich flach und will auch niemanden sehen, fühle mich dreckig und eklig. Eine Wärmflasche und "süße" Filme, leicht verdauliche Nahrung und Ruhe, helfen darüber ein wenig hinweg. Im Winter habe ich meisten einen enormen Leistungsanstieg während der Periode, das erstaunt mich immer wieder... alles merkwürdig mit diesen Hormonen...🤷♀️ Auf der Arbeit habe ich ein Team, das sehr verständnisvoll ist, sobald ich sage, " Lasst mich diese Woche in ruhe" wissen alle Bescheid 😂 Fühl dich lieb gedrückt, Anna❤
20:30 I really want my period back 😢😢😢 But due to my depression I feel like I have to workout because when I don't I start feeling bad and worthless, get stressed and feel physically unwell too😭
Hi Anna! Your videos have really inspired me and I love it! I have been having some trouble with my period and hormones and I was wondering if you had any advice? I haven’t had a normal period for the past 8 months now and I thought it was because I was under eating and working out too much and I got scared so I slowed down and I am eating more now in a balanced way and I have stopped restricting my self so much and I have been working out less. But my period still isn’t coming and I am not sure why or if I maybe need to be more patient. Do you have any advice? Thank you so much ❤
I can’t really give you individual advice here, and I have to mention that the best is always to see a doctor 🥹 eating enough and working out in a healthy and balanced way is super important, but there’s so much more that can have an impact on your hormones: not sleeping enough, being constantly stressed, traveling, drinking too much caffeine.. ❤️
When you have time and if you want, try watching some of Cambria Joy's videos on pain free periods and what to eat to help your body naturally. She's really nice and her videos are insightful. 😊
Hi Anna, wenn du deinen Zyklus etwas anregen willst, kannst du dich nach einer Apotheke erkundigen die noch selbst Tee Mischungen herstellt. Ich bekam von meinem Frauenarzt einen Fruchtbarkeitstee mit bestimmten Pflanzen (unter anderem Angelikawurz) empfohlen. Dadurch wurde mein sehr langer Zyklus deutlich kürzer und regelmäßiger.
Hello Anna! I have a question about your company! Do you ship wordwide? Because on your website it indicates that it is only on European countries, but then, i can choose the pay in Canadian dollars. If i go to checkout I actually can put my adress and info concerning Canada. So im really confused about the fact that if you ship here or not? Love you so so so much, you literally changed my life ❤
Hi Anna 💖 Ich finde das Thema Perioden Symptome mega wichtig 👍🏼 Wenn du dich irgendwann mal nicht gut fühlst um denkst du bist zu „dick" oder deine Haut ist unrein dann denk an diesen Kommentar DU BIST PEFEKT SO WIE DU BIST 💖🤩🥰 Liebe Grüsse 😘
Hi Anna! I really love your honesty and way of life. Always thinking things through. Avoid dairy products and other animal products a week before your period. I found that animal products worsen pms symptoms. Rather have lentils, nuts, tofu, beans and legumes as protein sources. Also try to include cold pressed flaxseed oil everyday. Wonderful way to balance and feed your hormones. Try and cut down on the coffee, it is really not good for your hormones, especially not first thing in the morning. Save it for special occasions.
I’m 29 asian girl :) For me, reducing caffeine and drinking more warm water with herb (not cold water), less salty and less sweet food and keeping my stomach warm(hot pack) during the period are really helpful for me. I hope these tips help other girls too 🤗

Hi Anna❤ its a bliss to watch you and discuss topics we women don't talk about much openly. Here is a small tip from my side which actually helped me relax a bit from the effects of hormonal change during periods :
Please never wash hair during the first 3 days as it hampers the flow resulting in cramps and more mood swings and eat much boiled veggies and lentils as its easy to digest.
Lots of love from Köln
You're always giving us a hug & so today, I want to give you a hug back. Feel it!! 💙🥺 Hope you feel better soon. Don't be so hard on yourself
It's so true that we are all different and there's no fixed rule to follow that applies to all women when on your period. For example I don't have a super painful period but I do feel at my worst during PM phase.
I have such a strong and uncomfortable PMS, where I get sore in my lower back/breast (it depends on the months), bloated, tired, hungry all the time and with tangible munchies... that when the period starts is a sort of liberation to me. I have cramps, of course, but I feel slowly detoxed🦋
Thank you for being such an inspiration Anna!
Hey there! Thanks for sharing!
I love the simple and music free vlog, definitely feels more like interactive.
Additionally, all that you mentioned, the bloating, the mood swings, the chaotic house /mind is spot on from what i've been going through. I too went to the doctor and only got the recommendation to take birth control and ssri's, which if you need to go for it...but like you said, that's not a natural way to deal with it. I think we all want a simple/clean options. Our luteal phase is just testing us hahah. My PMS is the worst then. This year after discovering what my PMS Is I decided to take on some changes. This is what has been working for me.
1. Eat more consistently-high protein &fiber & dark chocolate when you start getting agitated.
2. Like you said, if you are high energy, go hard , if not , then relax or go for a walk.
3. Limiiittttt social media. There is nothing worse than feeling worse about yourself and then comparing and watching crap on social media.
4. Increase magnesium glypysate for better nights rest. It has provided best relaxation and sleep before bed.
5. Get a good 8 hours of sleep.
6. Don't overwhelm yourself with plans. Give this time to work on yourself and activities that you like.
7. Limit coffee , maybe start with tea or something lighter in caffine.
Hope this helps!
Excited to meet Emma and follow along with the transformation!
You help me so much!! Can’t wait to see the video!!
❤️❤️
Thanks Anna, love these videos/chats. I was low on mood and cried a bit but smiled after hopping onto ur video while having dinner. For the cramps: Ingwer Tee hilft mir immer

I love sunday's vlog . Iam waiting u every week❤
This was super real. Loved it!. ❤️. I’m currently in menopause…maybe you could have an older woman talk about the effects of menopause on mood and daily life-as well as in our workout journey! You are a beautiful soul, Anna

i love all of your videos they are so inspiaring
🥹❤️
And another big hug for you, Anna❤❤❤ thanks for your video.
When I was at school, my period was extremely terrible, extermely sickly. First day of period was awful. I took about 6 pills of pain killer, so my stomac now usually every little pill makes my stomac hurt. After that I use injection of pain killer.
So it is important to talk about period. And I loved your ideas. It is importamt to talk about period at school, universities also.
I would loveeeeee to see more schools talking about it 🥹
Your channel means so much to me. Thank you ❤❤❤❤
🥹❤️ thanks so much you all, you all also mean so much to me
I hope it’s ok that I watch your videos. I’m an older woman, 63. I wish we had CZcams channels like this when I was younger. I feel validated, hearing you cover so many excellent topics. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day! ❤
I really like to be in a dark and cozy room on my days, no lights definitely.. the bests and fluffy socks on my feet.. some soft movie, popcorn and chocolates ❤ also make me feel amazing just free bleeding so I have a special red towel that I just lay on top.. ❤❤ Thank you Anna for looking for that! your work maked difference in this world 🌎
Love you Anna, you're amazing❤❤❤
Hi Anna, this was such a beautiful and true video! I sometimes suffer with the same problems so listening to you makes it feel more normal.
Lots of love from Türkiye! 💖💖

Dear Anna, you're so lovely and authentic. I'm Yoga / Pilates / Yogalates teacher and I teach many classes a week, when on periods I would say ofc we need to reduce, sleep more, slow down. Adapt some classes but also it's a mindset like : "ok, in 3 days it's over phew., 3 hard days, let's push when same..." So it's to be aware that it's not a cool period but it will go trough.
Your. videos transmit 🎉positive vibes.
🌺☀️❤️
My mood changes from 0-100
Enjoying this Sunday life in a day vlog! ❤❤
❤️❤️
Thankyou for being honest about not being able to do the workout without breaks! That happens sometimes and it’s embarrassing. 😢 I swear I feel better listening to you
omg but it’s NOT embarrassing!!! it’s okay, some days are better, others are not ❤️ you are only competing against yourself, and needing a break when you do a workout is so okay! I also need that reminder sometimes ❤️❤️
That happened to me yesterday. It was my first day of my period and I wasn't able to workouts without breaks. It was a pilates workout that I had already done before quite effortlessly. My energy was just so low. I was a bit disappointed but I've decided to be good with myself and told myself that I was proud 🥰❤️
Hi, i very happy to see you, your vlog! Thanks so muuch!🎉💕
Hi Anna, thanks for your videos,you are a very sympathetic person! :)
Maybe you can remember this follicular phase as the time when the so called „follicle“ („Follikel“ in german“) builds up, the state before the final egg/follicle gets dropped.
Your videos relieve my anxiety, the other day I watched each one a hundred times 😅❤ I am very grateful to you for your trust in us.
Your vlogs are like a breath of fresh air. I love your calm, judicious voice 🌸✨
thanks so so much for writing this ❤️❤️
@@annaengelschall ❤❤❤
I never had too many issues, apart from a very bloated feeling. This resolved itself when I started a low carb diet a few yrs ago. On months when my carbs are low, I don’t have any issues - no fatigue, cramps, bloating, etc. So these days I ensure I eat low carb at least 2 weeks before my period starts, which I don’t mind at all - I LOVE this way of eating. What works for me may not work for you though, but worth a try if it means no more low energy cycles!
I get good vibes from you❤thank you for your beautiful vlogs❤
❤️❤️❤️
When it comes to ovulation, it is not true for everybody, what u said. I have hormonal disbalance and i feel terrible those few days sometimes and i feel my best right after my period, have a great day! Love ya❤
yeah our bodies are all so unique and different, so there’s no “general guideline” that works for everyone ❤️
@cupcake2351 💯 relate to this. I feel terrible during ovulation. Almost the same like 1 week before and during my period. It gets better by day 7.. basically I’m bed-bound for weeks 😢 no doctors can help either btw
I'm in the same train with you Anna, you're not alone. Before 3-5 days and during the period I feel so tired, sad, always feel like crying, feel like whole universe is against me, noone understands me and forget about balance diet which I try to follow on a regular basis. I am always so hungry during those days.
Until few months back I used to think that those things are happening only with me becaue noone talks openly about all the symptoms. Women should come out and talk about this topic openly. Atleast we'll feel that we are not alone.
I feel a little relief when my periods starts. My period days are not that painful like those 3-5 days before it comes. I have sore breast, my thighs, lower abdomen and waist pains a lot. I become so cranky.
Our cycles are synched🤣
oh Anna you like read my thoughts, I wanna write that i want to videos like this, like your workout routine while period or befor it, and here you are, thanks so much
Berlin ist sehr schoen! Danke fur deine content :) Ich moechte Berlin diese Sommer besuchen.
jaaaaa komm nach Berlin 😍
I really love your videos ❤
Soups - asian soups. It's what i crave and they are so much more comforting than salads
My symptoms have changed over the years (I'm 36 now). But I'd say bloating, fatigue, feeling distracted and easily irritated, having high levels of stress and cravings of salty or sweet food, feeling blue/pessimistic/overly sensitive or even bad about my body image or self as a whole, have been symptoms I've been battling with since I was a teen. Then my period comes and everything gets back to normal as if I never had pms! Anyone can relate? Just remind yourself it's only a few days and it will pass. Not all feelings and thoughts are worth ruminating❤
Anna, I just ordered your bottle sand beige 🤩 I have been looking for a good bottle with straw inside for a while now. It will travel to Poland to Krakow 😊 And thank you very much for your sharing, very brave of you and it shows normal real life, much appreciated 💕
I hope you love the bottle so much 🥹❤️
It's so relaxing ❤
I Love youuuu ❤❤❤Thanks for your advice
Now i am learning english and your podcasts and films are really helping me to improve my listenig thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️♾️♾️♾️♾️👍♾️😍😉😍
Love your vlogs very much. And yeah i can feel it totally now😅
Thank you for this video. I am having these things as breast uncomfort, changing of regime of day, waking up late and sleeping too many hours, pimples, I am feeling changes in mood, so it started bothering me) my period is gonna come soon) eating something which is not healthy and thinking why would I break my healthy diet that I have set for my good mood already, even though I enjoyed it for so many days?) I do not know if I really had such things before, maybe did not pay attention to it. I intentionally started searching your channel to find any information about it, because I knew you would post something about it:) so thank you! I have allowed myself to relax after your words)
I love your videos 😍
I had the same situation than you at your workout and totally messed up an exam... Some hours later my period started and I knew what happened. I hate it. Since that I'm afraid about getting symptoms (blackout or low energy) during an important presentation in front of a crowd or on a customer meeting which is planned months in advance... I feel strange to ask my male colleague or my boss if he could be my backup if it happens. This feels so weak. 😢
I try to avoid important stuff around this time or stay at home. Some days before I use some anti acne products to prevent pimples. I also change my diet the days before and try to eat food which is easy to process for the stomach and drink a lot of water. The day before my period and the first day of it are cheat days for me. I eat whatever I crave. 😅
I love your honesty ❤
So wichtig das Thema! Ein Video mit deinen Tipps fürs Wiedererlangen (trotz Sport?) wäre so so toll. Ich leide daran und wäre sehr interessiert an deinen Tipps. Betreust Du auch in dem Bereich? 😢🙏
ich bin selbst kein experte, hab mir auch hilfe geholt und arbeite jetzt mit einer ernährungsberaterin ❤️ werd aber mal ein video zu dem thema filmen, wenn ihr wollt ❤️
@@annaengelschall Du hast Dich dann an einen Coach gewendet? Ein Video darüber wäre so wundervoll, welchen Weg Du gegangen bist und was Du geändert hast ❤ v.a. wenn man schon im NG ist und ausreichend isst, das war evtl. bei Dir ja auch der Fall. Du bist in jedem Fall echt n Vorbild und ne tolle Person mit einer wundervollen Entwicklung ❤❤
At first,I I used to eat lots of vegetables (Mainly raw), protein (mainly from plants,but also chicken and fish), and " healthy fats",But then I had very intense premenstrual symptoms.
Now I have included many more meats and animal fats, and I really feel like never before, I very rarely have period symptoms and if I do they are very mild.❤❤
Anna, I loose my period for about 7year, do you have any suggestions and how you make your period back and how long you struggling with this?
Can you make a video about this! I know in the previous video you have mentioned that you change the way you exercise and eat, but I still wish to hear more about this. Thank you!really like the video you shared. Have been doing your workout for a long time. It’s really challenging but when finished it I feel proud of myself ❤️
I tried celery once and I just didn’t like the flavour but now that Anna’s eating it, it makes me wanna get it and try it again😂
Hey Ana! I’ve moved to Berlin 6 months ago and I don’t know why, but yes I lost my period. I think my hormones are all messed up due to the stress of finding an apartment here. I’ve tried to look for ginecologists and endocrinologists, but I guess the good ones are booked up.
YOU ARE SUCH A CUTE, NICE AND HONEST GIRL THANK YOU FOR HELPING US
!!🤗❤🩹🥰
I love you so much Anna❤
and I love you 🥹❤️
@@annaengelschall 🥰
OMG, i love you too and i love my time working out leading by you sweat healthy leader❤
Celery sticks and PB, mmMmm. That Almond butter too 😋. Btw…that Greek salad….looks balmmm! 😍🤌🏼🥗🤤
the combo is sooo good, also wanna try it with almond butter now 😍❤️ and the salad was so good, you all have to try :)
That meal was definitely made with love 💝
🧩🫴🏼🌈❣️
You inspire me to be myself ❤
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much for responding to my comment ❤
I love you and your videos in both of channel
❤️❤️❤️
For PMS I love motherwort tincture and raspberry leaf tea. I’ve also been learning to not engage in serious conversations or make big plans or assessments of myself during this time. I also plan less. Maybe don’t film anything major during this time 🙏🏼 💕
Hey Anna… What dressing did you use on the falafel salad, if any?????
I also get really bad digestive issues. It is really common due to the rise and drop in hormones. What has helped me is kombucha and pineapple juice. Sometimes I will drink them on their own or mix them together. Pineapple juice has made a huge difference. I also drink raspberry tea leaf. That helps too. In addition to help with the extreme bloat, I will lay in bed with a heating pad and take Aleve if I just can’t seem to get rid of the bloat. I also try to help my mood by listening to upbeat music and watching shows that will cheer me up. For me, it’s Sex and the City. Doing what comforts me helps during that time. ❤
Thanks for sharing your video, I fancy your vlog.❤😊
❤️❤️❤️
15:52 For me cooking is like therapy ❤
I love celery and peanut butter!
Also Midol... it tooks me years to realize its just a mix of Tylenol and caffeine but it works!
Some months i feel low energy before my period and other months i feel like doing a workout. It depends how youre using your energy in other aspects of life, as well
Anna I hope you're in pink of health...this is pihu from india I want you to know that I am obsessed with your videos your workout drives me crazy...it is totally you and you who made me believe that I should start looking for my body...I am 18 years old studying pharmacy in india. I just want to ask since it's my new starting afresh journey I always feel what am I doing is it sufficient cuz I really don't want to lag back and crave for junk foods cuz I maintain balance...is it okay if sometimes we don't wake up or like skip workout for a day!!
I hope you will reply!!
Love you loads!!❤
i feel what you say, its so important to know about your body and the phases. Everytime i get my period i feel almost depressive and ask myself, why do i feel so shitty? Then i remember its because of my period, i forget every month, do anyone can relate? :D
I appreciate you because I really get like that on my period and I don’t wanna feel like that I think it’s affecting my 2 year old boy and my partner I really wanna understand wat to do to change that ✍🏽✍🏽
Hi Anna good morning 🌅
Hi Anna,
thank you so much for your words. Young girls need to hear that it's normal to have all this struggle and confusing emotions.
Kurz auf deutsch weiter, fällt mir leichter 😅 mir haben Ärzte auch nicht direkt weiter geholfen. " Nimm die Pille, sagten 4 Ärzte zu mir.
Ich hatte Jahrelang Probleme, bis ich mehrfach wegen extremer Schmerzen im Krankenhaus war. Dort wurde eine Vermutung erstellt, dass ich mich auf *Endometriose* testen lassen sollte. Siehe da, ich habe Jahrelang Endometriose gehabt, ich wurde operiert und nun habe ich diese Schmerzen nicht mehr, außerhalb der Periode. Leider können viele Gynäkologen dies in ihren Praxen nicht testen, dafür fehlt denen das Equipment. Dabei haben sehr viele Frauen das Problem. Das sollte mal einen Denkanstoß geben, dass in gynäkologischen Praxen das Equipment zur Untersuchung für Frauen gegeben sein sollte.... so müssten viele nicht Jahrelang mit Schmerzen rumlaufen, wenn man rechtzeitig handeln könnte.
Ich habe "nur noch" starke Schmerzen während der Periode, die ersten 2 Tage liege ich flach und will auch niemanden sehen, fühle mich dreckig und eklig.
Eine Wärmflasche und "süße" Filme, leicht verdauliche Nahrung und Ruhe, helfen darüber ein wenig hinweg.
Im Winter habe ich meisten einen enormen Leistungsanstieg während der Periode, das erstaunt mich immer wieder... alles merkwürdig mit diesen Hormonen...🤷♀️
Auf der Arbeit habe ich ein Team, das sehr verständnisvoll ist, sobald ich sage, " Lasst mich diese Woche in ruhe" wissen alle Bescheid 😂
Fühl dich lieb gedrückt,
Anna❤
20:30 I really want my period back 😢😢😢 But due to my depression I feel like I have to workout because when I don't I start feeling bad and worthless, get stressed and feel physically unwell too😭
Hi Anna! Your videos have really inspired me and I love it! I have been having some trouble with my period and hormones and I was wondering if you had any advice? I haven’t had a normal period for the past 8 months now and I thought it was because I was under eating and working out too much and I got scared so I slowed down and I am eating more now in a balanced way and I have stopped restricting my self so much and I have been working out less. But my period still isn’t coming and I am not sure why or if I maybe need to be more patient. Do you have any advice? Thank you so much ❤
I can’t really give you individual advice here, and I have to mention that the best is always to see a doctor 🥹 eating enough and working out in a healthy and balanced way is super important, but there’s so much more that can have an impact on your hormones: not sleeping enough, being constantly stressed, traveling, drinking too much caffeine.. ❤️
@@annaengelschallThank you so much I really appreciate this💖
When you have time and if you want, try watching some of Cambria Joy's videos on pain free periods and what to eat to help your body naturally. She's really nice and her videos are insightful. 😊
Hi Anna, wenn du deinen Zyklus etwas anregen willst, kannst du dich nach einer Apotheke erkundigen die noch selbst Tee Mischungen herstellt. Ich bekam von meinem Frauenarzt einen Fruchtbarkeitstee mit bestimmten Pflanzen (unter anderem Angelikawurz) empfohlen. Dadurch wurde mein sehr langer Zyklus deutlich kürzer und regelmäßiger.
mega tipp, danke fürs teilen 🥹❤️
Hello Anna! I have a question about your company! Do you ship wordwide? Because on your website it indicates that it is only on European countries, but then, i can choose the pay in Canadian dollars. If i go to checkout I actually can put my adress and info concerning Canada. So im really confused about the fact that if you ship here or not? Love you so so so much, you literally changed my life ❤
I recommend you the book Hormonal Inteligence❤
I love you ❤
Try seed cycling. It's amazing! ❤
Hi Anna 💖
Ich finde das Thema Perioden Symptome mega wichtig 👍🏼
Wenn du dich irgendwann mal nicht gut fühlst um denkst du bist zu „dick" oder deine Haut ist unrein dann denk an diesen Kommentar DU BIST PEFEKT SO WIE DU BIST 💖🤩🥰
Liebe Grüsse 😘
Hi Anna! I really love your honesty and way of life. Always thinking things through. Avoid dairy products and other animal products a week before your period. I found that animal products worsen pms symptoms. Rather have lentils, nuts, tofu, beans and legumes as protein sources. Also try to include cold pressed flaxseed oil everyday. Wonderful way to balance and feed your hormones. Try and cut down on the coffee, it is really not good for your hormones, especially not first thing in the morning. Save it for special occasions.
