Sisters, Honor Your Cycle: Energy, Exercise, Hormones, and the Sunnah of Balance

Written By Habibah Fitsters

Sisters, it’s time we stop fighting our bodies and start honoring the natural rhythm Allah subhana waata alaa created within us. In this episode we explore cycle syncing how to align your food, fitness, and daily habits with each phase of your menstrual cycle.

From low-energy days where rest is a form of worship, to high-energy weeks perfect for strength training and productivity, we’ll walk you through practical steps, Sunnah foods, and mindset shifts to help you thrive as a Muslimah.

You’ll learn:

  • The four phases of your cycle and what’s really happening in your body

  • Sunnah-inspired foods (like dates, figs, and black seed) that boost energy and balance hormones

  • How to adapt your workouts, HIIT, LIIT, mobility, or rest with intention

  • Why honoring your body is part of honoring Allah’s amanah (trust)

Sis, your health is not an afterthought, it’s worship. Press play, take notes, and start showing up for yourself with energy, balance, and barakah. x
