    A little tip that my mother used on me when I was a baby and I use when I have bad cramps: warm up a bit of olive oil, use it to wet cotton balls, make sure it doesn't burn your skin and then rub it it the areas that are hurting. Sometimes it makes all the pain go away, but sometimes it only relieves the pain while it's still hot and then the pain comes back. Really recommend you try, I believe the lavender oil works in a similar way

    Literally the best time to have a intimate moment with your body. Cramps suck but this is self love! And if you can get a partner to do it it's incredibly bonding.

    This was so soothing. When I tell you my (dismissed by doctors) pains are really bad you have no idea and I vomit, cold sweat, ache, shake, cry,. Amongst other ugliness, I have a fat stomach and I hate myself but this felt like I was hugging myself. Where did yiu learn this. What is this therapy called. Where can I qualify please? Being an undeveloped, traumatised, abused, diseased adult daughter of the worst, uneducated, villager, controlling, psychopathic, dumb, disgusting, ugjy, outcast
    parents (they continued to affect me and have power over me even though I live alone and pay bills) is extremely difficult but I'm determined to heal myself. As the mental health services here are not helping me, can I please ask a commenter or viewer on how can I heal myself? I want to be impressive, knowledgeable, and beautiful like this lady. This is amazing!

God loves you and is your father in heaven. ❤ I pray that you find comfort in Him. Yin yoga, tai chi, and accupressure points can help you go within, there you will find the Kingdom.

    This may sound weird, but Lay with your backside up against the wall and your legs going up the wall. With your feet against the wall, climb the wall lifting your backside until you are mostly on your shoulders. The majority of your body should be parallel with the wall. Bend your knees to a 45° angle and go on your tippy toes and move thighs in and out. Pressure will be relieved once you figure out the right move. Go back into a relaxed position after a few minutes and then repeat. Keep doing this for the duration of your period and anytime that there is pain.
    Doing so should result in instant pain relief and may result in no more painful periods. Yes it sounds funny, but if it works… It’s worth a try right?

      If the self-massage isn't helping, you can try lying down with a heating pad on your belly. This can be very soothing and alleviate some pain. While you're resting, take deep belly breaths and perhaps try some guided mindfulness meditation.

Once you fully accept them then your body will relax. Of course do these exercises . Don’t eat sugar, milk, cheese and eggs before your period, it will help you a lot.
