Hey! My name is Laura and I’m the face behind Yaca Blum.
My own story with menstrual cycle awareness started in my early twenties when I first got off hormonal contraception. Quickly, I noticed how much my body and mind were held caged for so many years within a synthetic rhythm that wasn’t mine. Not to mention the various side effects hormonal contraception had on my physical and mental body.
I felt relieved and free. Feelings of depression were suddenly lifted and I felt sunshine spreading in my soul.
It was magical to uncover my own unique rhythm and I started to feel my cycle on a much deeper level.
But it wasn’t before my late twenties when I took a deep dive into the phases and four inner seasons of the menstrual cycle and I started to align my lifestyle and nutrition to my shifting energies.
And that’s when things started to shift on a level I couldn’t foresee.
Living in alignment with my cycle helped me overcome emotional and physical cycle-related challenges (I prefer not to call them PMS as I think it is diminishing toward our experiences😉). More so, it opened up the doorway to a unique and magical potential which is only possible when flowing with your energies instead of against them!
So, here I am with a big vision and dream to guide other beautiful souls to live in alignment with their unique rhythm. Because that’s what it is… Unique!
My Background
Before I hit the road as a Menstrual Cycle Coach and Yoga teacher, I worked as an engineer at a big medical company in Denmark. Great workplace, great colleagues, great team leader. But something was missing.
In 2023, I completed my first 200 hours of yoga teacher training, and my vision began to crystallize. I pursued further education to become a Holistic Health Coach for Women, specializing in the menstrual cycle. Currently, I am enrolled in my second yoga teacher training, which is a 300-hour program that incorporates Traditional Chinese Medicine as a therapeutic approach to yoga.
I’m genuinely in love with all these elements that have come my way. They make great sense for fostering a healthy menstrual cycle and unlocking the potential that resides within us.
Thank you, for being here. Have a look around and feel free to ask any questions when in doubt.
