A period rarely comes alone. At least for most people. Headaches and abdominal pain are particularly noticeable at the beginning of your period. Once the physical pain is there, it is difficult to push it aside. This causes us to tense up even more and the symptoms feel even more intense. We can't magic the pain away, but we can focus our attention on something else and, most importantly, we can breathe! Breathe against the pain! You heard right. Targeted breathing exercises can have an active influence on physical complaints and especially period pain. Calm and conscious breathing helps to bring calm to the body and mind. In this way, period pain can be alleviated.
