If you ask three different yoga instructors what they think about doing yoga while having your period, you'll get three different answers. In my opinion, there's no universally correct answer - do what feels right for your body. For me personally? I like taking it easy by doing a restorative practice or, ya know, curling up on the couch with some chocolate and an old funny movie. Sometimes the body just needs a break, you know? 

Anyway, if you're inclined to practice, here are three yoga poses that may help combat all the joys of that week like headaches, cramps and irritability. :)
