Yoga has always made me feel peaceful and serene. Especially after a busy day at work. During periods also yoga is really good for the cramps. I and my daughter get our periods around the same time, so she joins me to yoga center only during her periods to soothe down her cramps. I got her adira period panties so that she doesn't have to worry about staining the yoga mat or anywhere else for that matter. Trying to get her to do yoga on a daily basis.
