the follicular phase of your cycle [also known as spring!] occurs when your period ends, and goes right up until ovulation. your body is creating increased rates of oestrogen, leaving you feeling you absolute best! your pituitary glands also release FSH [follicle stimulating hormone] which prepare your ovaries to start prepping the follicles to turn into an egg. basically - your body is working bloody hard, but leaving you feeling bloody great in the process.

your energy levels and general mood will feel rejuvenated after coming out of your period, and your body will feel ready to take on new challenges and push itself. this is the part of your cycle where making plans, dreaming big and moving your body can feel amazing, and you deserve to feel amazing coming out of your winter.
