I'm so excited that you're here, ready to learn this productivity booster technique that I wish
it was taught to all women in STEM while we were in school. Are you ready? Let's get started.
Hi, I'm Lennis, your wellness engineer and if you're ready to let go of all the stress
and chaos in your life and create more impact and fulfillment then make sure to subscribe

Ok my friend, so you're ready to learn this productivity hack or productivity technique
that many of us women have and we don't even know that we have this power. And what I'm
talking about is not your traditional time management productivity techniques that are
out there because I'm sure you have already tried many of them. What I'm talking about
is using your hormonal cycle or feminine energy to create productivity days. This is a technique
that has helped many of my clients truly simplify their lives. Not only become more productive but
also more efficient and effective with their work and you get all the deeds in here.
First, let's talk about the female hormonal cycle. Many of us are familiar with two phases of our cycle. The
ovulation phase, which is when we can get pregnant and the menstruation phase which is when we bleed.
Now there are two other phases that we're not as familiar with and these are the follicular phase
which happens right before our ovulation phase and we have the luteal phase which happens between
ovulation and menstruation. Now I'm curious if you are currently using a female hormonal tracking
app, let me know in the comments. This technique or productivity booster is going to be helpful
regardless of if you have a normal cycle right now or you don't for whatever your health reasons are.
If you stay until the end of the video, I will tell you what to do when you don't necessarily
have your traditional hormonal cycle.
Okay, let's get back to our cycle.
It turns out that each phase of the cycle has a unique imprint in our brains and how our brain operates because
the hormones are constantly changing in our body and this impacts how our brains work.
If you're using a cycle app where you're tracking your cycle, what you can do is you can look at
when your ovulation phase is and these are going to be the times where you get most productive.
Also, during your ovulation is when you want to schedule meetings for negotiating a salary
increase or getting a promotion at work. Why? This is the time when we're really outgoing where we
have the most clarity in our brain and when we can really use the right words for helping us
with these negotiation techniques. Also, during your ovulation phase is when you want to try
to schedule those meetings where you re tackling really difficult problems or you re really trying
to solve the big problems on your current project or whatever work you're doing in the moment.
Now, to give you an example, during the follicular phase, this is where you want
to schedule creativity kind of activities. When I was working as a chemical engineer on my last job,
I would take the time during my follicular phase to get creative on what strategies I was going to
use during the rest of my cycle to attract more leads and clients. So this is a perfect time for
you to start strategizing and to really set up the creativity part for the rest of your cycle.
We talked about the ovulation part where it's the peak moment where you get to work, and then after
that, our brain goes into this mode that is let's get things done and finished during the luteal
phase. Now, this is when you want to really try to finish up any pending task, or any major parts of
the project that you can close out during that time of the month. During your menstruation
cycle, this is more of a time to reflect and to rest, what I really encourage my clients and
encourage you to do is to schedule one or two days, usually right before your menstruation
starts, or during your menstruation cycle, to really clear out your schedule as much as possible
and to take some rest and time for reflection. Resting is truly productive my friend because
through these two days of rest that you allow your body to reset and reflect on what worked,
you can then look at the rest of the tasks that you're wanting to do and which tasks didn't really
get you too far and you don't really need to do any more for your work in order to progress.
So we talked about all the different phases in your cycle, but what happens when you are
not having your traditional hormonal cycle for whatever health reasons you have? Well, if you
really hone into this feminine energy, the idea is that you're going to start paying attention
to the lunar cycle, when the full moon is, how is your energy? And when the new moon happens,
how is your energy? For some women, the full moon is similar to the energy of the ovulation
phase, where they have a lot of clarity, a lot of energy and a lot of time to be outgoing and
really speak well and fluently, and during the new moon is when they go more inward, it s time for
resting and their energy is a little bit lower. For other women the opposite happens, full moon
means time to just rest and go inward, while the new moon is the time where you have
high energy. So let me know in the comments how is your energy throughout the month? and if you
have noticed this shift in terms of how your brain operates.
If you would like to dive even deeper
on how you can synchronize your schedule with your hormonal cycle, then feel free to book a 30 minute
complimentary call with me through the link in the description below. I ve helped many women
really go through the process of understanding how their cycle works and also go even deeper through
the Engineering Wellness Academy program on what type of foods are right for you depending on the
cycle and also what other physical activities you want to schedule throughout your cycle. So again,

super feminine power that we have and really syncing your schedule with your cycle.
